Training Tor Work.
The idea of education is to train tha
mind so that its action may bo rapid and
logical, its functions healthy and law-
abiding. In accomplishing this, tlio
storehouse becomes filled with knowlcdg*

Women’s education was, at one time,
considered thorough when her mind had
been trained to comprehend only tlio
sentimental part of life; of its practical
part she nocl not know anything j .oesTremVnnnTig own Bob'
All tins is changed. In those days slio | pyshuoanil hardware dealer?,

brothers delved into, to its depths. Her
talents and aspirations were hedged about

ness to giv- her opportunities increases,
mid educational institutions invito her
patronage. Universities and colleges
prepare her for professional life; techni-'
cal and business schools tit her for busi
ness and the trades.
i I is conscientious work tlio world
needs, and the more capable a woman is,
the more thoroughly she prepares herself,
the more desirable her work will be, and
the more extensive her market.
The world is fast finding out thut, be
hind the gentleness aud grace possessed
by woman, tliero are just as largo stores

it is fust utilizing these resources. In bus

of a plainly written, in good English,

Women in War.
Tiie suffragists nro waging war in tlio
East. New York is the battlefield most
exciting at present. Konridgc, a nnmo
familiar to Ledoeii remit'rs, treats tlio
subject in most felicitous fashion in a
late issue of the New York Giiaiuiic.
She says: “They want the spoils of war,
but not its dangers; for how many do
you suppose would be willing to do mili
tary service ? if forced to march against
the enemy, they would look with more
anxiety to the fit of their uniforms than
to the conditions of their swords and
muskets. If the opposing army had
sonic pretty good-looking inen in front
they might forget to fire at them until
too late, or if the General came prancing
forward on ids charger with a few mati
nee tickets the entire regiment would
surrender at discretion. But take the
most favorable view of tho enso—even
that has its horrors. Imagine our noble
band of suffrage infantry communing
with each other on u battlefield in this
wise:
“Oh, Julin, come help me load this
horned gun. Is there a trigger? And
where shall I put it? In the barrel—oh,
no, that’s where tho bullets goes.”
“Nevermind leading lip now,” says
Julia; the enemy’s over two miles off.
Here’s some caramels I found in iny hav
ersack."
“What nasty, sharp swords these are, 1
s:i>s a third; “I’ve a good mind to throw
mine away, and just use this sweet little
silver dagger Cousin George gave mo for
a paper-knife."
‘•I don’t believe our caps came from
Paris,’says a fourth; ‘they’re not the
very lastest style for army use.’ At
which there is a shriek of disgust, and
the command to march being given, the
ladies meander off to meet the enemy,
feeling terribly depressed by this infor
mation ”
Kcnridgo is so disgusted with her own
picture that she feebly concludes: “De
ft nded by such soldiers, this land of the
free and home of the bravo wouldn’t be
worth living iu."

An excellent practical fanner remarked
a year or 1 wo ago that lie considered it
good clover seeding worth from $10 to

of any grain crop, and it can be had
when grain is sown by the outlay of

i tort of the high spirited Southern wo
man.
This retort is quite equal to that of a
bright woman of the West the other day,
A tactless lady cauiu eagerly up to her
and said: “My dear, allow me to intro
duce Mr. Jones to you. Ho says lie met
i you sometime ago and was not favorably
impressed with you. 1 wish him to know
! you better, and tnun 1 am sure lio will
like you.”
'The luckless man stood a flushing or
unblushing (as you wish to take it)

“i did not make a favorable impres-
