of Buffalo before. Had no prelim-
mary conception of what | was to
see and find here in Prescott, as l
have most specifically refused to
form impressions of this land and
its, people through the perusal Of
many romantic tales of western life,
and the portrayal of many stirring

I've been frank: I'll be more so.
An eye-opener? That, and more
literally an entirely new viewpoint,
life, a spirit, and people Of
whose existence we conservative old
pessimists never have dreamed. l
am speaking particularly of the psy-
Geological impression registered dur
ing my first day in Prescott. Ev-
erybody was really happy. As l
walked up the street from the sta
ton, | thought, a mite cynically,
"just another Coney Island crowd"
but my mistake was forcefully ap-
parent during the next few hours
upon a closer observation of the
throngs with which l came in con-
tact. Absolutely | saw no one with
the ready made smile and the tired
eyes of the typical Gothamite. out
just to pass away the time Spon-
taneous good cheer and undiluted
happiness. clear. welcoming eyes
and hearty handshakes | met with
at every turn. Good l should say
it was. L was powerful shot of
vital sensations. On retiring the
evening of the Fourth l knew for
the first time what the term Gods
country meant. These people acted
as if they had something to live
for and liked it. We don't think
much about that back home. Here
it is in the air. A happiness derived
from a sane philosophy of life, due,
am convinced, to the wholesome
vitality of this western land.
To return to the wild west"
events themselves, ! can only say
that l thought l had seen some
good riding during the palmy days
of racing at Saratoga; but perish
the thought! l didn't know what
it was to ride horse: much less
one OF these vicious looking steers
until the last few days. Talk about
sticking on a horse! Those cow
boy chaps appear to be actually an
integral part OF the equine antony.
III believe anything l hear about
them from now on. Gone are all
doubts, vanished into thin air Those
sun-strong men could ride anything
from bereavei female grizzly to
a stampeding rhinoceros. And they
are all as game as they are pictur-
esque and good to look at.
1t has all been the most remark
able experience of my life and OF
one thing / am most emphatically
certain shall be on hand at ev-
cry Prescott Frontier Days Celebra-
ton from now on. Real thrills are
all too few these days, especially
in my native town. and these sure
are real More impressive however,
at least to me IS the spontaneous
spirit OF happiness on every hand
boosting. that's the WORD. 1t fairly
reeks OF optimism. I'm a Prescott
booster from now on.

, be thousands of people clamoring for
her services and willing to pay for
them.
The woman in her own home, who
knows that her husband will have no
money to leave her when he dies, is
worse than foolish If she doesn't fit
herself for a self-supporting career by
studying some domestic art so that
she is an expert in it, No one has a
better chance than she to learn by
actual experience how to market so as
to get the last fraction of value out
of a penny; no one has a better op-
portunity to learn the scientific man
agement of a house: no one has bet
ter chance to acquire all the subtle
arts of cookery. And the woman who
possesses these has a way of making
n living that makes the stage or the
typewriter turn green with envy.
or suppose the woman at home
has q talent for sewing. There is
no more effective weapon with which
to rout the wolf away from the door
than needle, and no woman need
fear the future If she has the energy
and ambition to develop her talent for
dressmaking or millinery, and make
of it a real profession. Also she can do
this in her own home, and to the
benefit of her family as she does it.
There are two things for which the
want will never be supplied, and for
which people will pay out money
without stint. The first is for good
cooking, and the second is for good
clothes.
Makes a Profession of Dressmaking
and Cooking
And the woman at home can fit
herself to supply these needs with
out leaving her family or neglecting
her home duties. on the contrary,
the two things run hand in hand
But-and it is a big BUT-the wo-
man who makes money by keeping
boarders or dressmaking has got to
make a profession of it. She's got
to make an art of it. She can't do II
in the hit-or-miss, sap-dash way in
which she does do it at present with
out coming to bankruptcy That's the
trouble. And that's why 1 urge every
woman to get busy and study her own
business. Raise housekeeping to the
highest power, and she need never
worry about how she would make
living if her husband died. She'd
know how to get rich.

port of the family, so they have been
able to lay up no money against
rainy day.
1T fills me with terror to think of
what my fate would be if l were call
ed on to support myself" such wo-
man will say desperately to you. Il
never made a dollar in my life. l
don't know anything by which L could
make one. l am too old to learn
Stenography or clerking or office work.
Besides, men want only bright, quick,
young girls around them.
TITS hard enough for a middle
aged man to get a job. It's impos-
sible for a middle-aged woman, and
Z one who has never worked out of
her home before. There would be
nothing that l could do if my hus-
band were to die but to be depen-
dent on somebody who wouldn't
want me. I'd have to go and live
with my children, and their husbands
and wives would feel like martyrs be-
cause mother was saddled on them to
be supported, and I'd rather die than
do it."
This is all too sadly true. OF all
pathetic creatures on earth, none is
so helpless and so pitiful as the
middle-aged woman who has always
lived in her own home and who is
suddenly flung out from it into the
great struggle of commercialism. She
is like a soldier who must fight for
his life and who has no weapon with
which to defend himself.
