Don't you believe ftp Hear how one girl who .was sudden, ly thrown upon ber own resources made for herself a comfortable living, When forced to take account of stock she found she :bad no particular talent, but many knacks. She could sot write stories be a concert singer or player. paint miniatures or teach kindergar- ten, but she could write a clever note, bake delicious cake, pack a trunk that was a Joy to behold when opened at a fouraey's, end, play inspiring dance music, sing ballads blessingly and read aloud delightfully. In addition she could do fine mending, clean .gloves and laces and bad an artistic knack of setting a table or decorating a Coon. It would take -years to specialize on any of the branches. with no certainty of final success. While debating the girl beard a business friend lament that there was no ane to help her out on the numerous odd jobs that over- filled the busy worker's scant time. "I'll be an odd jobs woman," said the h She would go into a woman's kitchen and bake .a cake. would set her table anddecorate her drawing room for Company, would stay in the pantry and 'attend to careful. service and would later go into the drawing room to play for dancing or sing a few songs. The friend who hated to pack a.trunk knew where she could end a good packer in an emergency. The packer would also come early and get clothes in good condition, ran ribbons, mend, darn or elean gloves and. laces. The society womajq who could:' not afford a secretary and was swamped. by ber correspondence could have clew er, well written notes' sent out from. mere jottings of information. She could also trust ber for calling lists to be carefully revised and invitations written; directed and sent. Where eyes were bad or .one was convalescing from a long illness there would go the -girl with clever litera- ture adapted to the taste of the bear- er. Better yet, these stories were read in•a pleasing voice, with .perfect enun. elation. . • Summer Reading., Summer gives more Mate -for reading, even to the busy woman. then .does any. other season.- This 'may be be- cause It is too "warm for social duties and exercise, but the pleasant fact re; r._ mfitx?s: teetie...heok 1.ver • .
