* very highest respect for the
domestic qualities absolutely
essential in the character Of all
women for the fulhllment Of their mis-
sion In the world, / cannot agree with
Charles NJ. Schwab that women should
confine themselves to the treadmill
duties OF domestic life.
AS Mrs. stuyvesant Fish asserts. II
IL tuEt as much the duty Of a woman
- II is OF man 'to determine TO
develop the best within her. Do not
beiittle your own powers; aim TO pro-
gress steadily: never be content TO
stay IN an inferior position. Don't
in life. But II you 90 marry. do
everything IN your power 10 make
your husband happy
10 women has been properly trained,
nor IS she fitted to marry and become
a wife and mother. who does not I'M
derstand domestic science, as 70 IS at
present denominated, SO that she may
be able. II necessary, to do domestic
work in the most economic and skill
full way II her husbands income or
an emergency should require such
service Of her. And she should be
abb, TO direct her household should she
be fortunate enough to afford the en-
ployment Of others.
There Is no law that should confine
women TO mental labor, no more than
there Is 70 force all men TO perform
manual labor. Men, like women, are
Of different mental caliber. Were they
not. the world would not have wit
messed the marvellous achievements of

the little things which were. after all,
as necessary 20 their success as great
er ones
The attempt to confine woman to the
meaner vOcadonS on account OF her In
ferior intellect is preposterous In this
enlightened age. The intellectual
ity Of men and women has been proven
in too many Instances for further dis
cussioB Of that point. That they have
their natural callings goes without say
ing. and in many things both sexes are
equally expert
Women should not make marriage
their chief aim in life and should never
take the step except from pure affec-
ton for the men whose wives they may
become. Once married, their chief aim
should he to make their husbands
happy. as so well expressed by Mrs.
Fish:
Make your husband confide in you.
He should tell you MS hopes, plans.
and purposes. If he does not consider
you worthy to be his conhdante he
does not really love you. True love
includes absolute respect and conf
dence."

ANNOUNCED THAT THEY WILL
BE REMOVED THERE
FROM PORTSMOUTH.
ALL OEFI9ES 10 REMOVE


Atlanta Sept 6--The general Oh
fices of Jhe Seaboard Air Lnia Rail
road company, now located at Ports
mo# #h Va, will be moved to Atlan-
a@.thin years time
although no official information has
beA given ont, it was learned Thurs
day y~eae The removal or the head
quarters diAhe road has been almost
definitely Aecided upon.
The pril@ @ipaI reason for moving
the generqg Offices to this city is the
iaet thage Atlanta is geographically
the cenl@ OF The entire system. The
new Biwhingham division, the savan-
nah al Montgomery, the Columbia,
sayau#Ah, Jacksonville and Tampa
branG Gyes Of the Seaboard in Florida
andwhe operation of the Macon, Dub
lin Nnd Savannah, with The securing
of Package rights into Macon, make
il Aperative for the general Offices
tq4 Ynore centrally located.
D. same time the lines to
Jun and Virginia could be
n Aerated from Atlanta
tly of the lines to be
tax put Of Portsmouth,
whi( lily the eastern ter
mig I'D.
d IND western lines run
from eI and the divisions in
the sota9gfn part of Alabama, Flor
ida and Georgia are within eight
hours of Atlanta, while nearing "a
hours from the present offices at
Portsmouth. This is especially true
of the Savannah and Montgomery
and the Macon, Dublin and Savannah
division.
1t is believed that it is only a
matter Of time until the Seaboard
either secures trackage rights into
Macon over the Southern railway or
builds It's own line to that city. All
of the Seaboard's freight traffic into
southern Georgia and Florida is OBJ
Grated via Macon through an arran
cement with the Southern railway.
Every department of the road will
be brought to Atlanta when the
change is made, including the execu-
tive, accounting, law, operating, traf-
iic and Industrial departments With
the departments viii come President
w. a. Garrett, General Manager r.
+. Whittlessey, Vice President L. Sc
yier, General Passenger Agent c. b.
Ryan, General Freight Agent c. r.
Capps, General Superintendent IIix
and the other departmental officials
as wen as the large clerical forces.

By Associated Presa


Manila, Nov. 7.-Secretary Taft
has definitely decided to return
home by way of Nadivostock.
through Siberia and Europe.
He has received, through the
American consul at Vladivostock as
surances of the Russian government
that the recent disturbance there
will have no effect on his plans.
The secretary will sail from here
next Sunday and reach Vladivostock
on Nov. 10. He expressed great
satisfaction with the results of the
elections through the United States.
though he does not believe they are
indicative OF the attitude of the peo.
