As the course of current thought ia toward specialties the student fits himself for labor in that branch toward which he imagines v himself most inblined. The teach er must adopt a definite line of study in order to command a hijjh position. Tho journalist must make Jiimself thoroughly famil iar with some one field of knowl edge in addition to the all-around training necessary to the news paper man who would take a vig orous hold on the coufidence and sympathy of the public. In a less degree the impulse is felt by all brain-workers, even those modest ones. whoso aim is to reach the highest point of cul tivation attainable as a duty they owe to themselves. The advice to the young is to adopt a specialty They will find it stimulating, and in the first flush of enthusiasm they cannot appreciate the impos sibility of learning anything so well that they can!never say "there is no 'more to be taught me," But to one class of society the word specialty's disheartening. It is to those seekers after wis dom who were born too toon to derive personal benefit from the new departure. They love knowledge for its own sake, but their school training closed before it was considered essential to give young men and women more than a general education. The men of that day familiar ized themselves with business or a profession. The woman stayed at home and in addition to house keeping and training children read magazines and learned new crochet patterns, and now when listening to a group of enthu siasts, she thinks with a. sudden pang that she knows no one thing thoroughly, and that now she can never master a speoialty. Her life and habits have not fitted her far concentrated work. "What then is she to do? Is she to conclude that all cul ture except of a specialty is worthless? Let her not be de ceived into spasmodic efforts in other directions by women whoso aims are not like hors. ! She must realize that she can not compass tho universe. No intellect however great can repeat that proud speech of Lord Bacon, "I have taken all learningfor my province.' (There has been but one Margaret Fuller.) In her home that trinity, hus band, children aud .self is her better part, instead of exhausting herself with a multitude of diverse duties, she is to read, to study to keep herself abreast with the thoughts of the day, that she may bo a companion and friend to her husband, as the poet says to sootho him with her finer fancies to touch him with her ligkter thought. Guiding her children well, in maturer years her heart and intellect will always bo the magnet drawing them to her, hav ing had the ir childish love there after she will rest secure in their respect and affection. She cannot take up a periodi : cal without finding that, ia spite ' of all thought and vigilance, she ; has been unheeding opportunities for the growth and gnod of her i family and herself. She wonders how the millions of the , world's inhabitants existed without a knowledge of the rules of sanita tion and how millions now live without skilful application of chemical laws in the preparation of food. Men and women are forced to work at that which they dislike, and their highest powers are not enlisted. There is a loftier stan dar than the merely material one. To succeed financially may be to fail morally. Noble work in volves sacrifice endurance and self denial. It may be done in obscurity, often at the loss of so cial notice and interest, but if the worker love it, his toiling is hal lowed by sincerity, by generous impulse, by the consciousness that he is working in that station of life in which it has pleased God to call him4' either through the talent entrusted to him or by the peculiar circumstances at tending the besriuinfir of his ca reer. A great deal of misdirect ed effort is due to the fact that people are compelled to engage in work which they dislike. Ambitious parents insist that the lad whose eye for color and form is true and who would make a painter, or one whose soul re sponds and fingers thrill to chords of melody shall instead enter a counting room as his fa ther and grand-father did before him, or till a farm because he happens to have one at his dis posal though he may have no ap titude for either business. Half the failures and defeats in life may be attributed to placing the round peg in the square hole. Perhaps many a young man who would have made a fine agricul tuirst or carpenter has gone into th pulpit because he did not know what to do with himself. By the courtesy of Col. Thorn ton we have the "Southern Maer azine" for March. It is a pro gressive, readable and well-print ed magazine, published at Louis ville, Ky., by F. C. Nunemacher, at 1.50 par year. The articles are timely and well written, the illustrations well fitted to the text and instructive. We would be very glad to secure it for our library. "We have enjoyed th opportun ity of expressing our opinions. We have wielded (for one brief daj) "the power of tho press." It is immensely gratifying to re member how freely and generous ly this opportunity was offered us. We know something of an Editor's trials, and we vacate the Editorial chair resolved that oth ers may do as they like but as for us we are willing to let men do the work and wo will enjoy the 1 ft 1 1 1 iruits oi tneir labor.

J VERY RESPECTFULLY, BOWLES A Visit to Miss Roebrouli Although the skies arc lowering and we keep a fearful eye on Mr. Huff man's Hags, and the mud is diffusing itself in a most lavish manner, a visit to the new and attractive millinery store of Miss Eosebrough will almost make us believe Spring is indeed here. I had a quite pleasant surprise there, for I supposed Miss Mary confined herself to the study of making the headgear of the ladies and children of our little town, but on the contrary, all the little fal-lal so dear to a woin an'i heart can be found, from cheap to costly. Corsets of a leading make and of the finest material in black and white are shown. Exquisite wash silks for the ever popular waists in delicate shades and checks are displayed, and collars of rich colored la C3 to be worn with a headingof rose, . violets or. otlfer fa vorite flowers. Then there arc crushed crepes in soft weave and patterns of corn color, ciel blue, rose pink, and black, to be made up in chemisettes with stock col lar, and rosettes, with which the hap py owner may brighten dark dresses. It is no longer necessary to send away for gloves of good quality, as Miss Mary shows superior kids in but ton and, mousquetaire, in Chrereral and Centemerri make. For the woman who lores fancy work she can supply stamped linens ready to work and wash silks, filo floss in the latest shades; also a small line of French tissue paper. Those who love delicate lingerie will be delighted with the handker chiefs, stylish collars and cuffs, the latter severe and correct enough to suit the tailor-made girls. As for Miss Mary's specialty, I am not invited to fill the whole paper this week and will have to cut it short; but any one who knows her believes me when I say she will have the latest ami most artistic creations in straw, lace, flowers, ribbons, etc. She has out a very large order for children's caps, and her usual trip North to get the cream of the market will make us anticipate her return.
