Notwithstanding the wheat crop

ADVICE TO WOMEN.
Do Not Marry UnJil Able to Support
A Husband.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-N. W. Ferris.
recent Democratic candidate for Gov.
erpor of the State of Michigan, In an
address before the National Com
mercial Teachers Federation here,
has advised women stenographers and
women in general not to marry until
they are in a position to support a
husband.
''Until woman Ia able to support a
husband she should not contemplate
matrimony," declares Mr.. Ferris.
while l believe it is the duty of every
woman to marry. still l also believe
that before taking SO serious step "a
GIL should look ahead and prepare for
posi- BILE future misfortunes. There
fore, every girl should lit herself for
an emergency and be prepared to step
into her husand s place in the support
of the family in the event OF anything
him which will unfit him
for work.
MI. Ferris also spoke of the economic
and educational changes that have
taken place in the last hundred yeals
and told of the advances made along
the lines of commercial education in
that time.
