"They Are Not Romantic Enough"
Says a Woman Accountant.

From the London News.
1T is extraordinarily difficult to find
a woman ready to stand alone or to take
financial responsibility" said Lady ST.
Davids at the conference the other day of
the Association of Women Clerks and
secretaries when a committee was form
ed 10 start society for woman clerks
ana secretaries under the insurance act
ON, no. nothing to do with money" they
Will say. Anything but that"
Much the same opinion is held BY Mrs.
Ayres Purdie, the well known accountant
and the first lady to be admitted TO the
membership Of the London Association OF
Accountants. when / was first admitted
to this body she said, there was some
trepidation among the members of the
council lest the innovation might result
In whole army of women seeking ad-
mission. So far these fears have proved
groundless. This is one Of the few pro-
fessions for women that are not over
crowded.
My own experience is that the majority
OF women do not like responsibility or
figures or work on their own initiative.
One girl who came to me with the idea of
becoming an articled pupil suddenly
changed her mind and said she thought
she would like embroidery better. Another
recoiled with horror land she was a uni
versity graduate. tool when she found she
would have to sign a three-year agree
ment. oh, I couldn't do that" she said.
Il might want to marry before then: but
would not mind tying my self up for
eighteen months"
''Of course, a girl who has one eye land

age and the other one on business 10 not
likely to succeed in profession like ours.
which needs all a girls faculties and at
tention.
II don't think accountants work sounds
romantic enought for the average girl.
said Mrs. Purdie with q laugh. She Ii les

girl with love of mathematics and a
legal type of mind ii is full of possibilities
The best training Is obtained at some OF
the provincial universities or at the Lon
don School of Economics. after which
girl ought to article herself for three or
five years to an accountant,
If an aspirant to accountancy has no
means Mrs. Purdie advises her to get as
wide experience as possible as general
bookkeeper in business offices. Unless
woman is prepared to work very hard and
has private means to tide her over the
initial year or two l would not advise
her to take up a public practice"

Keeping Young.
, New York Commercial.

rum Tue New 1oTk OUmmeTClal
Though a mans body attains its full
growth before his twenty-fourth year.
and probably earlier than that, the growth
of his mind depends on himself. He
can continue adding to the sum of his
knowledge and his power to reason until
extreme old age IL he preserves his men
tai alertness. AS long as he retains
fair measure of that curiosity about
things which often make him nuisance
when a boy, and is interested in new
people. new sights. new books and the
thousand and one things that are hap
pening today. his mind continues to grow.
But when a man finds that change bores
him. and limits himself to one narrow
round day after day he is really growing
old mentally as well as physically.
This premature ageing OF the brain -
often self-induced. There Is class OF
men who make a fad of being uninter-
ested In passing events. They will read
only one paper, they will sit only in one
chair, they will eat only at one table.
they will vote only for one party. the
name of which is the same as that or
their forefathers, no matter how much
its principles may have changed. Through
posing at first. they become ''set in their
ways" and then they are really old even
though their years scarcely number two
score. II misfortune or unavoidable
change in his mode of life overtakes
such a man he is, like a homeless cat,
miserable for the rest OF his days. Those
who stay young mentally and spiritually
keep in touch with new people and espe-
cially with the young. and cultivate the
ing events. For them In their daily lives
there are no laws Of the Modes and Per-
slams. They may wear themselves out.
but they do not rust away.

 The granting of public franchises is a matter that has been freely aired in nearly every state in the Union during the past decade. Valuable franchises have been given away or sold for song by public officials and investigations made afterward have resulted in many of those public officials aud franchise grabbers going to prison. The revelations of graft in connec- ton with the granting of public fran chises in other states have been so great that laws to guard those franchises for the public have been forced through the legislatures of many states by popular agitation.
 But progressive Arizona must come to the front with a law bar ring the people from any voice in the matter and protecting the franchises for such corporations as may have use for them.
