NEW YORK, Sept. 2s.-Miss Mary Louise
Worley has received an offer of position
as teacher of languages in Boston private
school. Miss Worley's name may be fanil-
lar to some as belonging to the energetic
Young woman who was the last to tread in
the footsteps of the bright girls who have
won honors at Oxford or Cambridge and
who has gone a step beyond most of her
peers. DIR. Morley, her father, is we'll
known doctor in practice in London. He
has paid one or two visits to the United
States. and through the friendships thus
brought about the Hub has been trying to
convince the young student that the new
world offers better field for the display of
feminine talents than the old. Miss Mary
won the Gilchrist scholarship at London
University in 1888 and a scholarship at
Girton College in 1884 She attended lee
tures at both universities and graduated
with honors in the classics at London in
1885 and at Cambridge in 1888. This year
she has taken the master of arts examina-
tion at London University and passed with
first honors. Miss Worley would need to be
unite exceptional in personal appearance
before one could say of her that she is as
pretty as she is bright, but she is of slender
figure, above the middle hight and has in
telhgent blue eyes, good teeth, fresh, fair
English complexion and winning smile
She has not found SanSkrit roots incomE att
Cfu1y-inor ont q haCnn1inn TOO1A of
braiding her hair. She means to teach, and
whether or not the HUI gets her now the
chances are that unless she lays aside her
gold medals for her babies to cut their teeth
on, like Alice Freeman Palmer, who for
sock scholastic paths for the fireside, her
interest in America will cause rer to drift
into professors chair some day in one of
our girls colleges.
Mrs. Eliza Archard Conner, the we'll
known journalist believes that thinking
presupposes breathing, and that to produce
race of women like the deep-bosomed
Dianas and Junos of antiquity we must
eschew corsets, tight waists and high heels.
Her interest in the health of women as
promoted by physical culture will lead her
to lecture on the subject in October, and in
spite of her exacting press duties she will
find time to organize classes for eradication
Of headache dizziness and. nervousness by
means Of exercise Nine. Emily Bishop,
the expounder of the mysteries of the
Delsarte system, is another lecturer who
will advocate the higher physical education,
illustrating her points by poses in chic
Jenness- Miller gowns. Helen Beard, the
wife of Frank BEARD, the cartoonist, is a
third woman with a pretty wit who is
about to exercise it on the platform.
Elizabeth Stuart Phelps collaboration in
novel writing with her husband, the Rev.
Herbert D. Ward, adds another to the few
examples of literary partnership in the con-
jugal relation. Stevenson has accepted his
wife's assistance in one of his volumes. E.
II. b ashtield, the artist, writes magazine
articles in company with his wife, aud
Joseph and Mary Robbins Pennell travel
together i'll quest of literary material she
writing while he furnishes tine illustrations
j. Wells Champney is a second ar list who
illustrates his wife's books, and DIR. Mary
Putnam jacob and her husband have been
in the past somewhat closely associated in
medical writings. A few other notable in
stances might be cited but they are not
many. As regards the Forthcoming book
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Phelps, whose scenes are
laid in the time of Christ, it is to be doubted
if anything more than the oriental and
biblical lore which is necessary to truth of
portraiture and 'local color" will be the
share of the young clergyman, the general
scheme of the story having been conceived
by Mrs. Ward before she made his acquaint-
ance.
. Frank Leslie's Office in the new Arkell
building is probably the most suggestive of
feminine occupancy of any sanctum in the
city presided over by woman, Miss Mary
Il. Booth made not the slightest attempt to
add any decorative touches TO the editorial
room of Hdrpef'S Bazaar, and Mrs. Sangster,
her successor, has SO far respected her ex-
ample. Mrs. Martha j. Lambs office, from
which is sent out the Magazine of Ameri-
can History, is a model of comfort and
convenience, but it is the convenience
of student who wants heaps
OF big books at hand, not of the luxury
loving woman. Miss Glider has not broug it
out in the Office of the Critic any marked
trace of her feminine personality. Mrs
Mary E. Bryan does her writing for the
Monroe publications in somewhat bare
little den. The st. Nicholas offices over
which Miss Mary Mapes Dodge rules, are
hung with choice engravings and etchings
and there are cabinets, bookcases, easels
and desks OF oak galore, but quite similar
ones are found in the Century rooms in the
same building to be enjoyed by mere men,
