THERE Is one thing which girls who combine to live with other girls ought to remember and which I have never as yet seen clearly set down In black and white. It Is that their . first duty should be to preserve as far as possl- ble the Individuality of each. Take away our individuality, and life Is no longer " worth living. In prisons, individuality is stamped out aa far as possible, and as a scheme of life It cannot be said that t prison ranks high or la desirable. It la the great drawback to existence In a workhouse or in any large institution. Children brought up by the line and rule -pf a great establishment doqot do so well as children Individually reared, and per haps that to why many orphanages are naps iaai is wny many orpnaaages are - - groups or families under soluble mothers. in T advlcTto IT, 7. t?L tw rines advice to young wive, as to bow they I have seen In dozens of domestic ma. hall behve to their.
