The great tnisf irtune of France villages is the degradation of tho women through labors which belong to men. In their earlier years they tend to tho flock and gather id tho Harvest. As young girls., uu bstinct of coiiio.ry; and tho foresight of their mother', removes them from the rude fatigues of husbandry, but uo sooner do they muYry, tliati all is changed; they abandon the house and follow their husbands iuto the fields. You see them bowed to the earth, or laden with enormous weights, liko beasts of bufden. There are districts in France iu where they arc harnessed to carts with the os and ass. From that timirthe skin becomes shrivelled, their complexions like coal, their features coarse and homely.'and they fall in-, lo a premature deciepimdej more hideous than that of old age. But wbi!o thus performing tho labors of men, their own labors tlio.se Jubors which sweeten au'l fa-fine all others remain neglected or fin-known. Nothing can be Inure filthy, nothing more unwholesome, than the interior of their' Cottages.
