writer in Harper's Bazaar" says:
AT the point where the American
woman's economic obligations cease
and her economic identity is lost
when she comes to marry, that is
the French girls dot without which
marriage for her is impossible, con-
tinues her obligations and preserves
her independence. The result is that
whatever labor the French girl en-
cages in is undertaken by her with
the same serious and constant pur-
pose that the typical man has in his
work; the reward sought is in both
cases precisely the saGle-the ac-
emulation of sufficient money to
marry and found a family. But with
reference to the girl this further
fact operates shat the woman's sue
cess in any line of work must tend
first of all to perfect family concerns.
Thus we find the French girl or wom-
an working outside the home only I'M

bristling ambition to carve career
of her own; that she should be COM
PEELED SO to work is established as
clear misfortune, and the schooling
she receives, as well as the very pur-
pose of industry itself, determines
that knowledge of domestic affairs
shall, to the greatest possible extent,
be the foundation of her instruction
in any trade or profession, and she
is understood to progress in industry
accordingly as she becomes more and
more at liberty to apply herself to
work within the home"

Women Who Wear Wen.

It is astonishing how great change
few years of married life often make In
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which IS rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of it's
fairness.

THE FOOL AND THE WISE MAN.
Both Arrive at the Garden of the
Beautiful Woman.

BOIn AfrlVc at the garden OF the
Beautiful Woman.
Once upon time, fool started
out on journey. At first he was
very happy and sang merrily as he
skipped along, rejoicing with the
birds and butterflies that flew among
the flowers that bordered the way.
Much to his surprise, as he journeyed
farther and farther, the flowers and
trees gave way to rocks and thorns,
the breezes were no longer cooling,
and the sun beat down mercilessly
upon him. The fool was hungry,
thirsty, and tired. The sharp stones
cut his feet and he was very miser-
able.
AS he was Flooding along with
hanging head he heard a welcome
sound Of falling water, and turning
his head to see whence it came, he
saw not far from the road spacious
garden, full of trees and fountains.
He turned from the path, and going
to the gate of the garden pressed his
face against the bars and peered in.
Seated in the midst of the garden,
upon marble bench, was a beauti-
full woman, who beckoned with her
hand, and called to him bidding him
enter.
The weary fool placed his hand
upon the latch and was about to obey
her summons, when a wise man ap-
peared upon the road, who called to
the fool and said, Friend, do you
know where you are going?" The
fool replied that he did not, where
upon the wise man spoke as follows:
THAT garden, which you are about
to enter, is the home of the beautiful
woman whom you see seated upon
the bench. Her name is Sin. She
offers you rest and refreshment. IT
you enter. she will show you pleas
ures of which you have never
dreamed, but beware, as she will
take your. soul as payment for her
services"
Now his soul was something that
the fool was wont to set great store
by, so he returned to the highway.
still longing for the pleasures G., the
garden, but considering the price too
great. The road seemed hotter and
rougher than before, and to make
matters worse, he was constantly tor
mented by the remembrance Of the
garden with it's trees and fountains.
At last he could stand it no longer.
He quickly retraced his steps, and be-
fore long stood once more at the
gate of the garden This time he did
not hesitate, but opened the gate
and entered. The beautiful woman
was still seated on the bench, and at
her feet the fool saw the wise man

AWAY WITH THE RUBBISH.

l.
Some peoples minds are like sec
-ond hand shop; they contain things
of considerable value mixed with
great deal of rubbish. There is no
system or order in them. These minds
retain everything good, bad or indif-
ferent. They can never bear to throw
anything away, for fear it might be
of service at some time, so that their
mental storehouses are clogged with
all sorts of rubbish
Of these people would only have a
regular mind cleaning" now and
then, and throw away all the rub
bdsh, and systematic and arrange
what is left, they might amount to
something; but no one can do good
work with his mind full of confusion,
says Home Chat
Get rid of the rubbish. Do not go
through life burdened with non-es
sential, meaningless things. Every-s
where we see people who are handi-
capped because they never will let
go of anything. They are like theV
over-careful housekeeper who never
throws anything away for fear it may
be of use in the future, and whose
attic and woodshed and every cup
board and corner in the house are
piled up with rubbish which might
be wanted some time" The habit
of throwing away rubbish is of ines
Unable value.
