Woman's Extravagant Economy.

Mrs. John Lane has something en-
phatic to say about the extravagunt
economy of women, in the Fortnightly
Review. She introduces her subject by
the assertion that women do not know
how TO spend money adding: The
great majority never nave any money,
or they are ut the mercy of some mas
culine creature, he it husband or father.

our true knights gave uudying love but

Then Mrs. Lane wonders what the
world would have been like had the
purse-strings of time been held by won-

more comfortable. possibly, but less

money has keener juster idea of its

the masculine head of the family under
whose thumb she languishes. Also. she
has to learn the value Of time in the

Some People Who
Should Not Commit Matrimony.

Where the young woman married is
the young woman marred-to para
phrase !; we'll known saying-in the
greater majority of instances she has
only herself to blame.
MatrlmOny is not the raison d'etre of
every woman on the earth, only-unfor-
tunately for herself and her husband
woman does not realize this until after
the letters of wedlOck have been forged
beyond the power of human aid to
break.
One type of girl by whom marriage
should be avoided is the girl with an
ambition-the girl who feels she was
destined for some other and loftier call
ing than experimenting the details of
household, guiding and guarding the
frailties of nursery, and generally car
ing for and comforting an ofttimes dis
agreeable, worried man.
Where an ambitious girl consents to
marry the promise is nearly always
won by lovers VOW that his shall be
the strong mans hand to help her wom-
ans strength along the difficult road to
fame
She marries. and finds in place of the
aiding hand and inspiring love of prom
Use either active opposition or passive
Indifference to her iife-work.
She soon realizes, with an anguish of
bitterness, that the man wanted Il help
mate for himself. her life and its indi-
yidua interests playing no part in his.
Then she has either to forsake ambi-
ton, or else pursue a path to fame that
marriage has rendered thousandfold
sleeper and more difficult by raising on
every hand obstacles to success.

GOSSIP FOR THE LADIES.

But nobody has thought much about
spelling good nurse by making a poor
cook. No one has given a thought to

All this merely shows that no one has

When a woman hates to cook she is
sure to- make herself and her family I'M
happy, and she is just as sure to make
dyspeptics of the whole bunch.
To make cook of a woman who hates
it is not only plotting against the happi-
ness but against the health of a family.
This thrusting of woman into the
kitchen to do the family cooking regard
less of whether she loves or loathes that
kind of work mas wrecked many lives
and many homes.
There isn't man under the sun who

There are women to whom an excellent

Those women are the ones who should
do the cooking for the rest of us, who
hate it.
They should do it and be paid for it.
