BURNING THE CANDLE At BOTH ENDS
That expressive saying not only sug-
gests the most rapid form of waste but
also the most foolish. When a woman
overtaxes her strength in any cause,
whether in the enjoyu lent OF social
pleasures, or in the service OF church or
charity, she is rapidly Fastening TO the
end Of her public activity.
The proof of this is found right at
home. Young natTons who are not
dancing any more, chupch workers who
are no more active these have not step
ped aside because of loss of interest but
because Of Lack of Strength.
There Is not a we11 woman who would
not like to be made strong again. There
IS not sick woman who woald not like
TO be made well And there is not the
least reason. IN ninely-eight cases out Of
