"This change will come eventually Just as many others, and I believe these changes will be for the real benefit of society. "For Instance. I sincerely hope to see the day when work for every woman wil not be a question of money, but one. of ethics. I believe that day will come when there will be an exchange of aervlce. For Instance, why should I try to help another woman If etie refuses absolutely to be of service? We may live to see the following scene enacted, say, at a government employment bureau: A woman, leading a dog on a string, applies for a servant. They look her up. Why, ahe has no occupation, they find. She tolls mot, neither does she spin. She does nothing for humanity. nothing for herself. Well, servants are scarce, and they don't waste a good servant on that woman and her dog. Besides, a new Idea has taken root in the .world, and thla new Idea Is that every woman ovght to 4e some useful work. ! Scenes of the Future.

She gets a servant, or two,, If she likes. , "A woman who does nothing all lay but coddle a dog is really anti social. I think the number of child ren a woman has should act as an in dex to her social standing. The more she has the higher in the social scale ber standing should be.

As this idea has worked itself out, smallpox, cholera, yellow fever and other in fectious diseases already have given way.

The dan pen of constipation are so widespread because by reducing the body's power of.rrsistance through self -poisoning it makes it easier for any disease to develop.

But is It? "Motherhood Is unprotected. Some of the- belligerent countries to-day depleted in manhqid, are crying out In alarm at thla condition. Some of the governments are offering a small money inducement, but the mother well knows that this Is not anywhere near the amount that will be required in addition to her own earnings to keep a child in healthy condition, ev en if it manages to keep from starva tion. Mothers who have seen their little ones sicken and die before their eyeaj ror lacK or nourisnment, are giving serious thought to whether they should assume the responsibility of motherhood under such conditions.
