 There are many women who neglect themselves and devote all thei- time to others That is exemplary and sclfdouyirs. but it is not right. Tr. Ii seyi-- preservation g the Glst la" of nature" is true ally as well as spiritually It should be q law firmly fixed in the mind f every women.
 To preserve or conserve oneself is tc keep oneself ready for every emcrgnn y. Who knows just when she will be needed for some import ant m0ye2 N hat woman knows sh. will not be needed tomorrow or in year, to nursc the wounded or to ramp t. another towu2 We never know where the battle may strike.
 Belgium two years ago Was a. peaceful and self-assured as We ara today, yet devastation has swept her of the earth practically. R. fined anl te@ulifIl women have been C5ii-cd L. tT9np for hundreds of miles acrcs- ceul fy a"d arc liz na in he barns and ouJhou- os of Fnslard Those women who were not in condition physically fell by the waysde and died cf starvation and neglect The stronger ones Were obliged to abandon the weaker ones 10 save themselves. II takes but little force of imaeination C place yourself in the sad position of those women today.
 Be ready at all times and in fine physical condition Do not neglect yourself because one man tells you that you suit him as you are.
 Don believe for a moment that you are cOmpanion3ble to anyone unless you are equal in physical as well as mental requirements.
 The nature of man is selfish Ho too often gives a compliment with the selfish motive Of avoiding a1 ;rsument or expense
  sine would like to look and feel All she has o do is to strive and work with that object in view, and not fall down al the first bar t the gate so to speak.
 Health is first and foremost iL all rules for beauty and comfort. Conserve your heal h. Sleep wher it is night. arise when il is day, spend no idle time Work so many hours each lay and rest when it is needed Neale.t of self preservation is as fatal as neglect of duties.
 The day has cones when woman is arriving at her proper place il. the world ani she must be ready to take it.
 Men do no neglect themselves | think God gave them boards to call attention to duties How many of them neglect to shave? That very act of shaving recalls to them othc, duties as necessary.
 It is not vanity that compels health and beauty It is duty of the strictest kjnd. duty to the world
