These were greater than were to be found in any other profession, “but you must love the work, or its exactions would be intolerable.

She is characterised by “strong individual outldok.” and is “gifted with a fund of dry humoxir.” WHAT ARE “GOLDEN RAYS?” Though the .standard encyclopedia is silent on the point, this name is familiar to every housewife in the Dominion as the brand of the famous Golden Ray Candles.
