ONE-TAlENT PEOPLE.

Lincoln said: The Lord must have loved the one-talent people. for he made so many of them"
 We are too prone to look at talents as accomplishments. like painting. singing or being a good musician. for getting that there are talents of far more lasting quality which are hardly recognized as such.
 A dear little Quaker woman once made the remark that she would rath- CT have merited this epitaph on her tomb stone than any she ever knew: She was easy 10 live with" Being easy to live with is talent worth cul- tivating and one which is all too rare
 II our children today might be taught that to be agreeable and com panionable, unselfish and thoughtful Of others are qualities far more valu- able in life than being able to speak seven languages
 We need to teach our daughters that the humble. though exalted. pro. fession of home-making is more de sirable than the superficial accom- plishments which take their time. strength and interest.
 The object of the profession of home-making is a comprehensive one. to raise the ideals of home making is one, to make housekeeping an inspir- ing profession instead of G&adening drudgery, to make the daily task Ill the home entertaining as bridge whist
 To make the housekeepers allow ance go as far as possible that the best things of life may not be left out
 To promote the household welfare and insure domestic tranquility
 To develop in each child all the per. lection of which he is susceptible, mentally, morally and physically
 The profession of home-making is becoming more and more difficult each year, and the young women who expect to enter the profession un- trained will be the ones who in the future will figure in the divorce courts.

Esre also unnatural. causing me annoy
