happened to know a few points Of
law" conducted successful fight
against that powerful corporation, the
New York Central railroad, and forced
it to pay her $1,S75 for land which it
had condemned at $575. She appeared
in court when the supreme court jus
tice appointed a commission TO hear
the case, and her knowledge and acute
ness in cross examination routed the
real estate experts and lawyers for the
defense. Such an instance as this shows
how at times a woman may find a
knowledge of law valuable Not every

take course at law school, but
nowadays there are many manuals in

may CLEAN enough to know how to
conduct her business and protect her
