Stress Words Abet Winsome If there were no women compelled by eircuntgtatene to take care of themselves, the march of the "woutan's movement" would cease. For, in spite of her moden; rattle of independence and her assertion that she is as hag sa a man any day, wom- an by nature loves best a cozy corner and the course of life that helps to make and keep It entry, and blame her Na men nilly do it Is not her fault that she does net plan to perpetually enjoy and grace that corner. It is rhetorically and poetically all very well to entrant woman to adorn the hearth atone and cling to home, but as practit•nl advice most of such entreaty is absolutely nothing, for such is the stress of circum stances that woman often cannot adorn the hearthstone and cling to home at the Name time. In short, 1f she would adorn the hearthutone she must frequently do it by auch outside work as w111 aid in keep- ing • hearthstone at all and insuring the necessary hearthstone accompaniments. There etre only two classes of reputable women who termite the shelter of the home. They etre the class forced Into the open by ntee'.sity and these enticed there by personal ambition.
