Girls Have Changed.

What has become of the accomplished

did she depart? She was very conspic-
uous generation or two ago. All the
Aramintas of our grandmothers' day
could speak a little French-they inva-
riably began their letters Cher ami" if
history is TO be believed - they could
thrum an accompaniment on the guitar
while they warbled entertainingly Of
"Juniata," and usually they could play
the harp and the piano as well.
Many of these young women could
paint and draw, all could sew and not
few could embroider beautifully.
Unless they were equipped at least as

had the accomplishments.
Moreover, they had beautiful manners,
and they spoke good and not hurried or
slpshod English.
The average girl of the day seems
proud to boast that she has no 'parlor
tricks" She can play on the piano a
little. perhaps. but she is not particularly
proud of that fact; her French is mser
able, despite the four or five years she sat
under teacher of that language, scrib-
bling notes to her friends in the next
row. She cannot sing a bit. She would
disdain to paint the triling things in
which her grandmother took such pleas

The occupant could not answer at

lll-adjusted bundles, she had not much
breath left for talking. She was the red
face, Number one. The pair had been
making the very same train.
Number two had three minutes to
catch it and she used up those minutes
doing so, quietly and in comfort.

One Right Reason for Marriage.

We often hear it said that maria ges
are made in heaven, but we have no
proof of this; but marriage should be ap.
proved in heaven and is never happy un-
less so blessed. The most pitiful mar
riages in the world are those which take
place without cause or reason There
should be a reason in the heart Of every
girl for marrying a MAJ and it should be
the hottest and purest, the perfect love
for some one person above all others in
the world. The girls who marry for
other than this cannot be happy or make
another happy. Some girls marry SO
heedlessly. and yet it should be some
thing sacred. 1t is something which every
girl should share with God for His care
His guidance and assurance that what
soever she does will he with His ap-
prevail This is when heaven approves OF
it. and any girl who has not this spirit
ual feeling in the matter is only selhshly
thinking of herself.
Don't marry for home. money. to
help relatives or for any convenience hut
when you do. let it for wiser purpose
a good woman has great deal of in.
tiuence with men, and just these little
things are what are necessary for every
girl to take into her heart and life before
She marries Il man. She can help him in

had in view. and selfish love will do all
Of this. True love may come to YOU
