Vanity is what othtr people tuink of what you iliinK ai, ut yourself. What a girl like- about i b:t., strong man is the way she fan twist Inru aiound her lilt le fin ger. I s a terrible temptation to a woman to '.Taut to make tier self believe that men are pur suing her. Half the time a girl marries a man because she can't bear to think how bad he will feel if she doesn't. A woman's clothes are nine tent lis of the joy she has in life and ninety-nine hundredths of the sorrows of the man who p.i s for them. There is hardly anything more foolish than to teach a girl languages when she could have much more fun and be more useful learning how to manage a bouse. When a girl marries a man with a past she hasn't any fu ture. A jolly fat baby makes most anybody forget bow slim his bauk account is. A woman dresses very queer to have her ' figure always look different from what it is. If a man can't get enough trouble to suit him any other way he can always try to raise a vegetable garden. N. Y.

The 4.CU0 candi dates for certificates were also suli mltted to the form vision tests and twenty-two of them failed to distin guish the form of the object submit ted.
