Russian General Michael W. Alexietf, Chief

approving the principle, but saying that lis

suspension could not be made without a
formal assurance of an identical suspension
on the other side. General Cadorna's reply
was communicated to Austria who replied
GA Suspension does not appear practicable to

cording to the Post-lntelligencer of
that city.
Il have seen a good many thousand

But someone mentally objects, I do
not intend my daughter to earn her
living | expect her to be married,
as every woman ought to be- In that
case, | should say, emphatically more
training is essential. Father is will
ing to put up with almost any amount
of fOOlishness in his little girl, as he
continues to think of her. Husband,
if he is a man of sense, would like
companion for a wife, and rot doll.
Il feel, personally, that the married
woman is not only under obligation to
administer her home expertly, which
means scientifically, but to make an
intelligent contribution to the well-be-
ing of the community. Home making
Is rapidly becoming a profession, and
training is necessary for any profess
