HINTS TO OFFICE GIRLS.

“If you have a few leisure moments da not always spend them in prinkirg,” says an English writer. “Tho chances are your chief will catch you at it and jump to the conclusion you belong to tho butterfly brigade. Powder your nose, if you must, but do not make a sacred rite of it, or be perpetually wielding nail-tile and pocket comb. Feminine vanity is all very well in its place, but it should be sternly repressed in the neighbourhood of filing cabinets and typewriters. It is possible you will have to work late at times, and when this happens do it willingly and with a good grace. It may be inconvenient, nut an air of injury will not help matters, while cheerfulness will bring its reward when you want to get off early for a dance or other festivity, besides establishing you in your chief’s mind as someone to be relied upon in emergencies. I* the natural course of events you ara bound to mako mistakes. Never take (ofiifte in excuses. Own up and take your medicine and resolve it shall not occur again.”
