Thought for February 8

[Thompson, Darryl]

     Passing over other honorable employments, every girl should learn
to take charge of the domestic affairs of home, should be a cook, a
housekeeper, a seamstress. She should understand all those things which
it is necessary that the mistress of a house should know, whether her
family are rich or poor. Then, if reverses come, she is prepared for any
emergency; she is, in a manner, independent of circumstances.  Adventist
