neighbnrs. for making better men
mi women Of her children. and for
cumming with her husband.
As grcatgreat grandmother was
omancipatcd. so her daughters es-
capped mrch drudgery. Because they
need not sew hy hand, they devoted
heir leisure 10 many Of the advan-
taEos fhCir mothor had missed. They
developed themselves. They cult.
waited the arts Of wifehood and moth

Likewise. their daughters, because
they didn't need &c spend hours and
hours each day making clothes by
hand were able 10 go 70 institutions

Since that blessed emancipation
haf began with great-great grand
mothers being no longer obliged to
