I will ask permission ' to rest there, while .I say, Brave i+ork- 1irg. girl! How often;are the words borne to our ears, "Only a working girl." We hear them tittered by the self=coneeited beauty. who 'never ;oil ed her hands With an bourn honest toil. We hear them echoed by the aristocratic damsel who would scorn` to recognize a poor "working girl." and yet the one Gad created us. ale, We 'hear them from the lips of the young swell. who would starve. or rot in prison if he bad w labor for his bread, And eta' we rind in ti cr•iptur'e the words; "In the sweat of thy face shall thous eat bread." We hear it front the quern :'f . fas3110t1 who through some freak of fortune, en- jays the good things of life. perhaps through a rivh husband. or through the sufferings of her neighbors; and still we find in the words of Gods. gifted apostles that it is harder for a rich Loan to enter the Kingdom of heaven, than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle." What then are we to think of thohse who frown upon a poor "working girl." Are they Christians! Surely not. or they would not forget the words of God, "Love one another." Neither should they overlook she fact that the Saviour of the world was born in a manger. And that his was a life of poverty an dsuffering. Yet are eanuot close our eyes to the truth. America is on the downward road, Fashion and style are going hand in hand, and ruin and tiesolatoin follow in their veal.
