What has become of the old circuit

have vanished entirely from the pres

Probably the much overworked
man would get to spend one night in
a week at home, perhaps not that. His
life was uncertain and wandering, but
his faith was that which "passeth un-

A Vital DUTY

Before a girl of the more fortunate
classes goes out into society, she must
be protected in some way or another.
If she be for instance, convent bred,
or If she come from an ideal home, it
may very well be and often is that she
needs no instruction whatever, be-
cause she lis, in fact, already made I'M
approachahle by the tempter. Fortu-
nate. indeed, is such girl But those
forming this well-guarded class are
few. and parents and guardians may
often be deceived and assume more
than they are entitled to. At any rate,
for the vast majority of girls some pos
tive instruction is necessary. 1t is
the mother who must undertake this
responsible and difficult task before
she admits the girl to the perils of the
world Further, by some means or
other, instruction must be afforded for
the ever-increasing army of girls who
go out to business. 1t is to me a new
