"tHow much there is the self-wil1ed i would do
 Were it not for the dire dismay
 That bids them shrink, as they sud- l denly think
 Of-'What will the neighbors say?' g
 To the girl who is just about to en- ter life's great workshop there is much to learn and quite as much to guard against If she has a strong will of her own and is given to fits of temper, the first lesson she will have to learn is to overcome sul1enness and petu- blance. Her home folks may have erl- dured it with patience, but the out side world won't.
 l She wil come in contact with all sorts of dispositions. Learning to cope with them without cIashing is her sec ond and equally important lesson. She must not expect to jump at a, single bound into favoritisnn. Other girls were there before her and by hard work and perseverance they have be- come so proficient in the business that their opinion counts for much with the head of the firm Their yea" can keep a, girl in her place, their ''nay'' send her from it, or make it so un- pleasant that she is obliged to seek employment elsewhere.
