In the laboratory of a commercial plant, however, there can be little objection to the presence of women, and it is here that most opportunities are fotind—or can be made. For, in order to advance, a chemist must “sell’’ herself to her employer and associates. Many chemists, men and women, are underpaid posenee they have not made the firm reali the laboratory is essentiil to its Dusit ness. The best salaries are found ih the factory positions where men who are both chemists and executives di- rect an entire plant.

Before a girl asks what chemistry offers her she should ask herself what she brings to it. First, educa- tiom, “A limited humber of jobs are available to the woman without spe- training—routine laboratory jobs whtre the chances are all against her working up to be in charge. College graduates may become analysts or research workers and enter the grad- ually opening field of supervisory, and consulting ¢hemical work. ‘There are qualifications more neces- sary than an A. B. degree. One is physical endurance. A chemist stands on his or her feet all day, every day. Any one who doesn't believe this takes strength should try it for a day. The next essential is common sehpe—perhaps I should say com- mercial sense. A chemist must re- sist the temptation to stray into by- paths of theory and keep the com- mercial, purpose constantly in mind.

A typewriter ri which gives 200 writes will be & better investment for her firm at $? 70 than one which gives 100 at $1. The maximum on which an edu- cated beginner could start as an an- alyst is around $25 a week; from then on much depends on her ability and self-salesmanship. here are isolated cases of women making big. enlaries in chemical work; $5,000 to $7,000is, thought very good py. | But. the! average between that and the begin- ner’s salary, is, I believe, steadily ris- ing. . There is no doubt about the interest and variety of the work. In the Amer- jean Telephone and Telegraph Com- pany laboratory we test all office and janitor supplies, including writing ink, cleaning fluids, scouring powders, paper for printed forms, tensile strength of typewriter ribbons, lubri- cating oils, type cleaners and so forth. Take just one common Office sup- ply—ink. The, variety of samples is amazing. Naturally, the records of a public service corporation should be Permanent, so inks receive, among other processes, the ‘‘accelerated test’’ of a mercury are lamp, under which some fade out in twenty-four hours. Others we have been unable to fade. Cleaning fluids also must undergo stringent tests.

As regu- lation of weight is to a certain extent an indication of health you ought to feel inspired at this time to make an extra effort to bring yourself to normal.

So, in learning to exercise the body by developing the muscle you will not only increase the weight but greatly imp! thé looks of your figure. You will find that exercises that are dcsigned for their resistance will be of greater benefit than the repetition of light calisthenics because the bunch- ing of the muscles to push or pull or lift for one effort has a tendency to develop that muscle, One of the chief drawbacks to gain- ing weight is a predisposition to nervousness. Nerves to a certain ex- tent are a matter of habit. A thin woman is usually very ener- getic and restless as well as nervous, and the first step toward gaining weight is for her to learn an exercise such as is illustrated to-day. The first position is simply clasping the hands behind the lower part of the head, and at the me relaxing all of th of the head and spine. cond position shows the body bent over, preparatory to moving it from side to i as if the hands were trying to pull the head off by wriggling side way At first you will feel as if it | possible for you to do this exer but never mind if your neck crack it it pains a@ little for this will sour puss away.
