They all want to be school marms," governesses or the wives of rich men. House work, which should form the ba sic principle of our economic life, is summed by them as some thing degrading. A young wo- man will stand behind a dry goods counter fourteen hours a day for mere pittance-not enough to clothe her-lose her health, become anaemic and un fitted for the performance of her natural duties, rather than ac- cept position as domestic where she would have a comfort able home, good health, and be- come properly fitted for the du- ties of wife and mother.
