Farming AlIuring to Women.

New York home to try her fortune as
a fruit grower. And she has succeeded
beyond her early dreams.
In the past we have thought OF farm
ing as almost the last held for woman's
invasion, but we have seen them un-
trained and inexperienced, succeeding
to the ownership by reason Of the death
OF husbands or fathers, and they have
done little more than coax reluctant
living, II that
We have seen them, too, Just as day
laborers, the little foreign women work
ing early and late as helpers; and It has
seemed that almost anything else would
be better fitted TO their strength.
But when We view the trained woman
farmer, with a background Of scientific
tutelage, with a fine dairy all her own,
a poultry farm, or a fruit orchard, we
turn to the other strange work to which
women are subscribing and we feel sure
that the woman farmer has chosen well.
Women in Mining Field.
The Rlondike has yielded It's riches to
the woman miner. who has bossed her
own gangs Of men and won gold in

half so appealing as that Of the young

And We read OF the woman in Buena

pumping sand and coal from the bottom
OF the Susquehanna River. But We read

another young woman Is rivalInE the

Of new flowers.
Indeed II is strange fields that women

they may turn where they will but II

It will be a happy move.
There are pitfalls there, no doubt, and

A 100 acre dairy farm with cattle,
sheep, pigs, and poultry conspicuously
figuring in the undertaking, has been
launched as q woman enterprise IN
England; and while not the frst Of It's
kind, It challenges ones interest be-
cause in many ways II seems to offer a
far more wholesome lure than the
busting world Of Industries In big
cities.
The farm is controlled, financed, and
worked exclusively by women and some
OF its products are sent to institutions
run by women, who have volunteered
their patronage in order to help along
the new enterprise.
It Is considerably larger than the 30
acre farm in one Of England's choicest
agricultural districts, but II II develops

apportioning the work according to the
preference and fitness OF each. And the
dairy, the orchards. the grain fields. and
all show what pluck and energy can ac-
complish in a field which is supposed to
be rather foreign to woman's possiblli-
ties. Even in the periods Of rush when
extra hands" are needed, the day
laborers are women. not because OF any
natural preference, but for the obvious
reason that men want to assume the
'bossing."
They are quite Independent, even to a
blacksmith shop. where one Of the sis
ters shoes the horses which fall to her
care with all the skill OF an expert.
The farm is well known and twice a
year a public sale, held within their
own broad domain, attracts the farmer
folk in large numbers, for their produce
and stock have earned a fine name.

Play Teaches Great Lesson.
BY JULIA CHANDLER MANz.

was asked the other day to name
the play which has been the most help
fil TO me Of all the stage stories 1 have
ever heard. It was a big question, and
one not easily answered. for It took q
deal Of time TO review in memory the
theatrical production OF many years, but
when this was done the figure OF Flea
nor Robson, who made famous the lit
tie maid Of the slums Of London In
The Dawn Of a Tomorrow" stood
apart from all the rest, and the thing
that the philosophy Of this. play did for
me lead all the lessons have ever
learned through any fictitious story.
You see, the role which Miss Robson
made wonderful through her under
standing sympathy, was that Of girl
whose friends called'her Glad because
she saw always through the sordid pow
erty Of her miserable rags tomorrow
andC beyond that another tomorrow
and more and more to-morrows in an
endless chain Of radient hope.
Her philosophy reminded me OF the
Eastern monarch who offered great
wealth and high position to the man who
could bring him one sentence which
would apply equally to every condition
that by any possibility might arise in
life. And when the sentences were all
submitted there was but one which filled
the requirement, and that one read;
This, too, shall pass away" famous
poem was founded on this story, and the
play, which the girl Glad makes radient.
has for its keynote the eternal passing
Of the present and the never ending
dawning Of to-morrows.
Came to Believe 1t.
There is always a tomorrow" Glad
told the man whose life ahad become
such a physical burden that he was
ready to end it, and she repeated the as
sertiou to him until he came to believe
in her tomorrow of great promise; be-
gan to believe, and went on believing
until the tomorrow Of his hope actual
ly became a to-day for him. bringing
him back the priceless gift Of health.
Somehow. after Eleanor Robson made
the girl Glad live before my eyes the
dominant note OF her philosophy kept
resounding in my ears. When was
hard pressed her cry OF faith would
echo through my mind.
There is always Tomorrow" she held
out to those who found their to-days in
tolerable. There amt nothing so bad
as that you thinks II is, she said in
her illiterate way, and the faith with
which she said it made you believe It

COmfOrtinE Assurances.
This, too. shall pass away''-for the
day that is dark, and after this COM
forting assurance repeat the other SEN
tence. There is always tomorrow
tomorrow with all its possibilities for
the altering Of conditions that make life
look the color Of indigo to-day; to-mor-
row with its promise. its hope and its
elusive witchery.
Believe in tomorrow.
Faith will make IL dawn, fulfilling its
promise.
1t dawned for the girl Glad.
But that was a play, you say7
Yes, of course-but a human belng
wrote the story-one who had reasoned
life out and found that our to-morrows
are largely shaped by our faith In them.
This Is why the central figure in the
story seems so real to an audience, and
goes on living in the memory OF those
who see her for all time, leaving with
them the courage to look upon to-mor-
row when to-day is intolerabls.
once told q woman the story Of the
girl Glad, who found life good In spite
OF poverty and the most sordid surround
ings OF the London slums because she
was able to say: There is always to-
morrow" and to believe that sometime,
somewhere II would dawn for her hold
ing no hunger, no rags, no horrible
strife-but all the things Of which the
name, her friends gave her Is a synonym.
A sorrow Infinitely worse than death
had come into the life OF the woman
to whom I told the story. One she
loved had brought shame upon her and
the shadows which encompassed her
were so dense that she could not see her
way out of them.
She liked the message tie plsywrite
sent out through the little maid OF the
slums and she repeated Glad's little
sentence until she, too, began to believe
in tomorrow, and after q while by her
own faith she lifted the shadows which
enshrouded her life.
1t is the memory Of her and the hap
plness that afterward came her way
because she did not give up her belief
in the Dawn of a Tomorrow that
makes me tell you OF the play by that
name.
Then, too, liked Glad.
And 1 believe in the message she
brought.

Sewing Hint,

In order to keep spools Of cotton and
silk always handy have the drawers Of
your sewing machine fitted with thin
boards through which are driven wire
nails placed two inches apart. Place
these in the drawers with the points Of
the nails upward and on each nail slip
a spool of thread.
One row holds white thread from "a

silk, and still another all the odd shades

U. S. FLAGS STANDARDIZED.

Following conferences between repre-
sentatives OF the army and the navy,
President Taft has issued an executive
order standardiZing the United States
flags used in both those services.
1t was found that all sorts and sizes
OF the American flag were being used
rather Unfortunately. The new regu-
lations limit the number OF different size
flags to twelve. and specify as 10 their
use. A curious corruption OF the Presi-
dents nag has also been corrected.
The army has been placing the Presi-
dents insignia on a red background,
while the navy USES a nag with a blue
ground. The revised regulations require
the Underground flag in all services.
