Don't look for money, style or show,
 Or plushing beauty, ripe and rare, ; Just take the one who laughs at fate,
 Who laughs and shows she doesn [ care-' ;
 There are more business girls at the present time than we ever knew or in the past They are sensible, goz entirely upon men and marriage from start to finish. Most of them have, l:by ambition and close attention, at tained good positions; earn enough to pay well their expenses and, 5poss1 to put by a little for the fproverbial rainy day,
 It is usually the girl who makes a good living in the work-a-da.y world who comes. in contact with SuitorS and hesitates over offers of marriage. There are numbers of men who seek for wives but who dare not incumber themselves and their modest incomes by going to the altar with young wo- men who are not willing or capable or aking brage self-denials, if need be, for loves sake, in their early married lives
 They want girls of wisdom, with common sense and prudence, fairly good housekeepers, careful managers while they are striving to make their first hard start battling in the cold world of keen opposition. They fight shy or prOpOS1ngs marriage 10 5S1TIS who are influenced wholly by fashion, dancing or flirting, gay or aimless. Who has not. considered that the dear one whom he would marry may have to prepare daily, with her own hands, a meal, pudding, darn socks, or trim a 1amp?a
 There is a reason for curtailing every unnecessary expense in the household. if the first struggle of married life would be success and bring cheer to the troed hearts that in after years will not be forgotten. A curious sum
 ming up reads that numbers of girls who have studied domestic science in many schools of that kind, offering the course Of complete home making. stand a chance of running into fam fly troubles with their husbands only once in one hundred and six times it has been tabulated. The girl who does not take this work may run into do- mesttc trouble one time in seven. While medical examination is required of all brides and bridegrooms, as is now advocated medical requirements
 will be for prospective brfdegroons alone. The gfrf will be obliged to show that she is trained home maker.S
 Happy marriages result most always from good housekeeping. The young business woman who still keeps her position after marriage and is deeply | 1 1t should be, quite often meets with disappointments hard to bear. She cannot be at both places. To one or the other she must devote her best energies. Her business always keeps her alert; everything must be centered
 on what is totbe done there. She is tired when she enters her home at the close of day. and begons to pick up the duties there which face her on Ievery side.
 Something will be sspt to go wrong with the best regulated donnicile when Eone's away something will grieve the l hearts of the loved ones there who
 have waited for the step which came
 at last. Throwing off hat. and cloak
 her duties begin. If she has a happy
 song on her lips and joy in her heart, that she is able to lift a helping hand all goes merry with her. If she is thank1ess for home and love, that l which cheers she never knows. The eaotto should ever be. on lips and fill hearts with love and content: There's no place like home
