vlENNEsE LADIES.

The Austrians as a nation look on
educational matters from a serious
standpoint, and the middle class Wen
nese girl can hold her own with her
sister of other countries with regard to
accomplishments. In her case the
study of foreign languages, which in
this country is not considered half Sc
riously enough, is an essential part of
her education, and she can speak in
addition to her own language French
and English, and that huently. Music
as a study is thoroughly gone into,
while on leaving school the Viennese
maiden is instructed in all the arts of
housekeeping and cookery. not merely
dabbling in it for fun, but learning it
thoroughly, and Austria is noted for
the excellence and daintiness of it's
cakes and sweets. There is no more
accomplished dancer in creation than
the Austrian girl. A love of dancing
and of skating is born in her, and both
are learned by her as a child hardly out
of the toddling stage. OF late years
an increasing number of girls seek en-
ployment as foreign correspondents,
postoffice clerks or even bank clerks,
while not long ago a Viennese obtained
the position of station mistress in q
country place.
