The Girl Of Fifteen.

The great thing for a young girl to
know is that she doesn't know any
thing. All which life teaches is to

ing of realities.
-.-lt Is true that the school girl has
been brought into contact with active
young minds, and with teachers and
instructors. She is learning some,
thing about human nature, something
about the play of forces good and
bad in the society she happens to be
part of; but unable to compare, to
Judge. to reason closely, of necessity
she remains ignorant of the real, liv-
ing, working world.
When girl has the sense to realize
exactly the place she occupies in the
social order she Is most happy girl.
Content to be herself, leaving the
management of things to older and
wiser persons, looking on and learning
as she goes, Joyous, hopeful. helpful
and gay--there Is nothing in all ma
ture SO beautiful and sweet as this
kind OF a girl of Is. While she ie-
fers to the will and advice of her par.
ents. in all things, this girl begins to
reflect, to reason and compare, and
thus she learns as she goes on her
way. Later on experience becomes
her teacher, and all that she observes

can understand by experience.-Ada

him on his reputed dislike for the op-

"It is all mistake, assure you.
cannot think where the idea came from
that | dislike women. On the contrary
| like and admire them very much,
and assure you that | realize the
value of their help" Despite this de-
NAL, however, there Is no doubt that
Mr.. Rhodes fights very shy of the fair
sex, and this, perhaps, is not to be la
nented. for domestic ties would great.

there is some reason for Mr.. Rhodes
