Women in the Field of Labor.

If by chance woman does not be-

Guilty. The man has been in business
for generations; the woman is new
conner. Some employments are closed
to her, either because they require the
great physical strength or endurance,
Dr because conventional considerations
forbid. Americans look with disap-
proval upon Women working in the
fields. as they do in foreign countries; ;
and yet there is much field work that
is more interesting. more wholesome
and much more suitable than some
of the work that American wcmen are
allowed to do-such, for example. as
they do in laundrieS and in factories.
Not only are women considered as
invaders in mems fields, but also they
suffer because men, invading fields
once considered strictly feminine, are
becoming dressmakers, cooks, laundry
managers and clerks. Moreover, for
the same work women received lower
nay than men. Do not those difficult
tics constitute compelling appeal to
give women in their schooling every
possible equipment for success?-

long years of war that shook England

peared.
When Mr. Bradley, in a leisure hour.
entered the fine old fourteenth century
village church ut Lcintwardinc, in
Herefordshire, he did not thinl: that
the bare, unseated chapel promised
much of interest; indeed, he was just
turning away when in n far corner and
partly concealed by ladders, bucSets,
planlss and other articles necessary to
sight of lofty mural monument. The
lettering on it ran as follows:
"Ncar this place are deposited the
mortal remains of Sir Banastre Tnrle-
ton-Baronet General in the Array

the Bath. Governor of Berwick-on-
Tweed, Co.unel of the Gallant Sth
Hussars-He represented his native
town of Liverpool for seven Sessions
and closed his distinguished career In
this place Jan. 25, 1882"
In 179S Tarletcn was sent to Portu-
gal, but was very soon recalled at his
own request, and with that exception
he never saw n shot fired after York

though England was constantly fight

was the son of Liverpool merchant,
