Journal for sn account of ths plana
it la. conceded by all educated and
thinking people that domeatto science Is
more 'needed et the present time for the
life of the nation than any other science.
It is 'required because schools are pay
ing so much attention to the intellectual
development of the brain that It la ut
terly one sided, and training in the use
of the hands is necessary for the per
fect growth of mental power. In addi
tion to this the woeful lack of efficiency
In all kinds of manual labor Is especial
ly marked In connection 'with cooking
and household tasks. What la to be
come of the homes if ths young girl,
who is to, be Its-future mistress, and
the young girl who is to serve in it. are
both ignorant of the science of cooking
and household management?
The new teacner in Portland is turning

sre.JlHing up very well and every pupil
la - enthusiastic. Next year ' arrange
ments will be- made for classes , for
young ladies from out of-town, and also
for correspondence clssses.

that I had evdr heard.- She IS a Sioux

perfectly, and - has - a 1 meet wonderful

Instead of on for. women. She took. Ue

that it is quite probable that she wiU
