is lighter," she replied. "If you will, your school can give to
you a vision that will make your load seem very easy; your church can give
to you a love that will make you eager to go there and learn to serve;
your home cares can give you ideals for your own little home some day;
your mother can show you how to grow into beautiful womanhood if you will
but give her a chance; your troubles at home can give to you a sympathy
that will not only lift your own burden but help with those of others. All
these levers that you have seen helping to lift loads have been right at
your hand to help you if you would only have given them an opportunity.

"How shall you bear your burdens? With a smile on your face, and love in

groaned beneath their burdens because they had never learned how to carry

their hair very straight, hers was straight also; but when they wore
puffs, she had to get up much earlier in the morning to force her pretty
hair into great puffs over her ears. Mother wanted her to wear serge
dresses in the office, but the other girls wore georgette waists, so of
course she had to wear them also. Some of the girls in the neighborhood
liked to go to the library to read, so they had formed a club for that
purpose and had asked Julia to join. But the girls in the office liked to
go to dances and picture shows, and so she must go to them also--else how
