VICTORIES OF WOMAN WHO IS COMING TO HER OWN. “Woman's education, if it has not al- ready, may speedily pass from the state of eelf-consciousness. To-day we need only to chrontole its victories, not to contend for its prerogatives.

The American girl of to-day is a self-reliant individual. She thinks her problems out for herself. No professor can tell her that a thing fe so and have her ac- cept it as such without her own ree- soning coming into play. “As @ proof of this you have only to g0 into @ olvil government and various other academic departments.” “Do you think, then, that college women are aiming principally for equal mentality with men?” I asked. “As to th he answered, “woman has not lost her womaniiness nor has she been found wanting in mentality.

Lawrence Gillespio, Mrs. Norris Sellar and Mrs. Harold Brown were at hie bedside. Mr. Sherman had been {ll for several months. Mr. Sherman began business as a clerk in the White River Bank of Bethel, Vt., in a little brick building not more than 2% by 80 feet. He came to New York in 1851 and was soon in the employ of the National Bank of Commerce, of which he became presi- Gent,in 1892.

For example, one of our special departments in zoology is given over to motherhood, under supervision of Prof. Wild “Mere a young woman learns facts, pure and simple, 2 know of mo vocation that is higher than motherhood. And while the col- leges for women are practically ‘anvocationa) institutions, yet the G@emands of the times express a mee for getting to the student something that she will actually use in the outer world. “We are making strides along these lines.
