the finest profession now open to
women trained nursing. The
trained nurse occupies unique po-
sition among business women. Her
salary is approached by that of
very few of her sister workers in
other lines Of effort, she is indepen-
dent and receives great considera-
ton and respect.
The profession is so far from be-
ing overcrow,l.'d, that it is an i'm
portant question among physicians
how the deficiency may be made
up, since no school is of sufficient
capacity to meet the need. The
the nearest approach to solution
has been found by the Philadelph-
ia School for Nurses. A generous
endowment enables the school to
enlarge its classes very greatly and
to offer a large number OF free
scholarships to suitable applicants.
It is now desired to reach the right
class of young women in small
towns and country districts, that
it's classes for the coming year may
be recruited from them.
Several hundred students ARE
now receiving instruction, a large
class was graduted in June and
another in December. These

ployed, the demand for their ser

HOHN WORTH KERN. the mar
who has been chosen by the
al Denver convention to be the run
ming mate OF William j. Bryan
Is known us one of the most valiant
champions OF Democracy in the Hoo
sier State. 1t Is true that In the ma.
jority of the political contests In which
he has figured he has been OH the los.
ing side. but that has not had the ef-
feet of lessening his popularity or
relegating him into the obscurity
which is the usual fate Of the oft de-
feated candidate for political honors.
1t is admitted by all of those who
are at all couversant with the political
situation in Indiana that Mr.. Kern Is
far and away the most popular Demo-
crat in the state. This fact has been
made apparent on numerous occasions.
He has been twice honored by his par.
ty with the nomination for governor
and has also been the Democratic can
didate for United States senator.
1t is not by his political associates
repute. Men of all political creeds
have learned to like him and to ap-
preciate his sterling worth. Although
ever since his entry into political life
he has been accounted an extreme par
ty man, he has never permitted hirr-
self even during the heat of political
campaign to indulge in personalities

from home to recuperats. He con-
Quoted whirlwind campaign that
year, making great number Of
speeches and travelling over a greater
part Of the state. He Is regarded as a
redhot campalgner and is an orator Of
force and eloquence. He was the
friend Of Hendricks and voorhees, and
served with those great political lights
IN many well fought battles.
Mr.. Kern is above the middle height
Of slight build and active nervous
temperament An able constitutional
lawyer, he arraigus the present Re
publican administration severely for
usurpation of power and the state ad.
ministration for its enactment OF the
80 called "rpper" bill, which he claims
was used for partisan purposes by the
Republican governor. Mr. Kern Is
dark haired and has crop of flowing
whiskers and is most impressive per-
sonality generally.

able conclusion soon became proven
bal. In an Incredibly short time he es.
tablished business second to none In
the prosperous county town. and his
prospects were exceedingly bright.
He came by his political creed very
naturally. His father was n SO called
Democrat of the old school. having i'm
bibed his political ideas in the atinos-
phere of Monticello. near which lie was
born. Thomas Jefferson was the elder
Kern's political ideal, and he made a
point Of training his clever son In the
same faith. Outside Of his immediate
home circle young Kern received little
sympathy in his political predictions,
for Howard county was overwhelming
ly Republican. and follower of any
other party was in hopeless minority.
Thus 1t was that the young lawyer
Travelled rather hard political road in
his early days.

FINER TO BE WIFE AND
MOTHER.
Says Miss Anna Louise
Amendt, Highest Salar-
led Girl in New York.

New York, July 27 The dit-
tinction Of being the highest sal
aried woman In New York, in the
opinion Of Miss Anna Louise
Amendt, who draws something
near $40, 900 year, does not com
pensate for the sacrifice of domes-
tic ties which such success ex.
acts.
This is what Miss Amendt, who
is the most valuable employe Of
the biggest real estate concern in
this city, told me as she sat in her
huge leather. cushioned chair in
her beautifully appointed office.
II suppose many women envy
me, but, to my mind, to be a good
mother and wife is the grandest of
all successes. Home is the natur-
al sphere for every woman, and no
matter in what direction her lines
may be cast she cannot entirely
shake off that desire to reign as
its queen some time.
cit, is just this one ruling ele-
ment in her life that prevents her
from attaining equal success with
men. The average girl lives in
hope that some day a husband
will come along and shoulder her
burden. 1t is only when she rids
herself of this thought that def
mite success in business comes, for
concentration is one of the key
notes to success.
"Another thing: Women are
doubtful of their ability to accom-
plish vast results, and 1t is impos.
sible to do thing as long as
doubt rests in our mind.
"When I started out to earn my
living began as a stenographer
with a salary of SIS a week. 1t
was not such great while until
my check was increased to $50
That did not look go big to me, but
it would have satisfied the average
woman. My checks continued to
increase until they ran into the
thousands. OF course, my useful
ness had increased, for 1 was not
satisfied with being a stenogra-
pher. I had learned every phase
of the business and could put
big deal through with as much
ability as could any man in the
office. l prepared all of the litera-
ture. In fact, there is no part of
the business with which / am not
familiar.
buG Win all my success would
not advise the young girl to seek
a career. For in my belief the
girl who gets married is ON the
right road to happiness. Success
in all lines is hard"

his political antagonists. He is es-
teemed throughout the state as man
Of high ideals and pure motives.
In 1900 Mr.. Kern received the NOM
tnation for governor, but he went down
to defeat with Mr.. Bryan. Again in
1904 he was given another opportu-
nifty, but the sorry political fortune of
the previous campaign was repeated.
Although he was regarded as one of
Mr.. Bryan's stanchest friends, he was
the first Indiana man Of any especial
prominence to come out for Judge AL.
ton B. Parker, whom he supported 10y
ally without in any way endangering
his friendship for the man from Ne
braska. Thus it Is that he is today one
of Mr.. Bryan's closest friends and ad-
mirers.
Mr.. Kern Is native son of the
Hoosier State, born in Howard county,
near kokomo, in 1S49. He Is of south
ern extraction, his father having emf
grated from Virginia in 1886 and be-
coming one Of the pioneers of Howard

mensely to his reputation as man o.

from his character.

an excellent record. During his two
terms law and order were dominant,
and 1t became current saying In Ko-
komO that there was no necessity to
bolt the door as long as Kern was on
the watch.
In the state election of 1884 Mr..
Kern was elected reporter Of the
supreme court on the Democratic tick
ct. In this responsible position he
proved most efficient and conscientious
and Won many powerful friends. At
the close OF his term he settled in In
dianapolis and soon became closely
identified with the business interests
and policies of that growing capital
He was elected to the state senate iu
1892 and did admirable service In the
legislature. From 1897 to 1901 Mr..
Kern was city attorney of Indianapolis
under Mayor Tom Taggart. the nation
al chairman of the Democratic party.
He took very prominent part In the
great political battle of 1895 and was
identified with the fortunes Of Mr..
Bryan IN the state of Indiana.
