WOMEN WANT CLUB HOUSES.

Certainly, and Why shouldn't They Have
Thsn
The New York papers are extracting q
good deal Of fun out of the fact that Soro-
sis. the famous woman's club OF that city.
is ambitious to have q club house Of its
own. The wise editors seem to view the
idea as very conical one. indeed, and treat
it with varying refnements Of delicacy and
humor.
We are induced to think. for our part.
that 1t would be good thing for Sorosis to
have its own club house. 1t could be de-
pended on to be q oozy and comfortable
house to begin with. for whatever women
do in q domestic direction is certain TO be
well done. Ii would surely be the scene of
less hard drinking and hard gam bling than
the average mans club house In New York.
and in this regard might afford . useful
object lesson. There would be Q good deal
of gossip ahoat within its walls, 70 be sure,
but Is there no gossip ever tattled in the
clubs where men come togsther?
The ladies of Sorosis have our best Wishes
for their new club ouse. We trust that il
will speedily come into existence and be all
they may desire. And when 1t has become an
accomplished TACT there 10 one thing We are
sure of-thst In its reading room family
6ction will have an honored place. The
ladies Of Sorosis are oil women OF good
caste. and all people Of coed taste have
but one opinion OF the paper which has re
volutionizsd weekly periodicalism In Amer
ica and made even the great magazines
feel il power.
