 A good dictionary is one of the me- cessary equipments of the cultivated home. It is as needful piece of fur niture as the chair on which one sits, the table at which ones writes, and the bed on which one sleeps. A house without dictionc:y Is a poorly fur aished house.
 Some people fancy that the chief use of a dictionary Is to show how words should be spelled; others limit its use largely to definitions, but a dictionary is worth much more than a mepe speller and derlper Besides these functions it includes the whole wonderful story of the human lan- guage and indicates how the stream of literature has flowed on and on from the very earliest days of written speech. The languages in which we converse with one another and by which we write are the composite Eng fish tongue, so copious, flexible and rich, is derived from other tongues which have been spoken and written on this earth of ours during the long centuries.

desire, but we do not always get them by nature. A girl with a leaden talent may change it after awhile If she is faithful and painstaking and ploddtng, for talent of silver. and a girl whose talents originally were silver may in the progress of her school years have them transmitted to gold. There is a verse in the Bible which applies just here. It is: Take away the dross and leave a cup for the reflner." Rough ore must go through a good many se- were processes before 1t can be changed
 into articles for beautiful daily use. One girl in your class has talent which almost amounts to genius Tor English literature. She pursues that
 with ardor and is at the top of the class. but sh ehas no special turn for mathematical study and has to be dragged through it by main force. An other girl has a passion for figures, finds them absorbing and easy. and without much effort carries off all the honors As for geography. botany, rhetoric and physics, she Is quite re- signed to a mediocre standard in them. and, though successful in spots, she. like her friend. is anything but an all- around scholar.
 The fact is, Dorothy--and want ev- cry one of my girls to listen---the ob- ject of your school life is preparation for tomorrow. The knwledge you gain today is by way of a foundation for tomqrrow's building. Only little while firm now you girls will be in the doorway of a bright and charming fu- ture. with all sorts of opportunities pressing upon you. Your tomorrow will be bright and gald. full of duties, full of pleasures and full of responsi- bility.
 School life is your time for getting ready so that when you enter on more independent season of life, you may rise to its importance. The all around scholar of the present will one day be the all-around woman in busi- ness. in a profession, in socfety, or, best of all. in the household. Nowhere else cain an all-around girl be so useful and so lovable as in her home. I wish that the girls I write for and to whom I am talking might every one be the sweetest home daughters in the wide world.
 One of the essentials of happy and successful womanhood Is that women should be interesting. A dull, com monplace. unresponsive woman may have pretty face and a good figure, but notwithstanding her beauty people will soon grow tired of her and seek other company. One cannot be inter- esting unless she has both sympathy and information.
 girl who has made herself familiar with several fields of learning and who has a we'll disciplined mind may not always be able to talk brightly, but she will know how to listen intelli- gently. Better still she will know when to keep still ,an invaluable bit of knowledge for a woman.
 Old people will find this girl charm ing and considerate. Busy men will feel rested in her presence, and as for her father and mother. they will be re- paid in her sweet, bright and useful girlhood for the sacrifices they made when she was in the schoolropm. Many parents have to deny themselves far more than their children dream that the children may be educated. They are always repaid in full by the chill dren who are developed in an aIl-round fashion.
