the contrary, it is only one of the schools
in which she is trained to be a wife and

foot companionship which should exist
between them than by actual contact
with these occupations? What other
means nliord her a clearer conception
of what her sons and daughters will
meet as they grow up and she helps to
train them to face lifo’s bottles?
In case death claims her husband and
she is left alone it is often necessary
that she should take up tho business
