Useful Accomplishments.

Every woman wants a cosy corner all her own—be that corner humble or handsome. Every woman who does not have the home longing Is abnormal. Home is made up of little things. One of the largest of these little things is the ability to cook wholesome food. Sewing and music are next A woman might be as homely as can be, but If she can cook a good dinner, make a dress, and let her moods slip out of her finger tips on a piano, that woman will have a chance for a truly happy home a thousand per cent better than her beautiful neighbor who cannot make even an apron, and who cooks badly for her family. . So I say to mothers, whether you have money or not, teach your daughters all the useful and necessary things in life, so that they will make good, homelike wives and mothers.
