WOa1le,e at the Fair.

Miss Susan B. Anthony is anxious tc
have women insulted in the worlds fai,
OF 1892, after the fashion in which the
same thing was done at Philadelphia in
1876. That is to say, she wants a sep
arate woman's department. instituted
for the exhibition ofwomen's work.
We call this an insult to women
workers because it exhibits their work
as that of incapables. 1t says in effect,
See how we'll these poor creatures dc
for women" precisely as we say. "See
what progress these former savages are
making" OF, "Observe how we'll that
child draws, considering that he is only
years old"
Capable women do not wish thei,
work shown in any such way, or with
such savage clause of apology. We
do not say Of Rosa Bonheur's "Horse
Fair that it is u remarkably good
picture for woman to have painted.
We do not praise the late Maria Mitch
ellis astronomical attainments as ex-
cellent for woman" Rosa Bon
heur is q great painter, just as Millet
is, and Maria Mitchell was O. high
authority in astronomy. Petticoats
have nothing to do with the matter.
The work Of women should be shown,
in the exhibition. upon it's actual merits
as work, and not upon any theory o.
disadvantage and disability. 1t should
be shown as the performance of the
several individuals who have done it
and not as that of class under specie:
of disqualification for whom apology i
made in advance.
In many departments of endeavo1
women do as good work as any mar
can do. Why should not their achieve
ments have the advantage of exhibition
in fearless competition with other per
formances in the same departments, il
order that full recognition and the
honor they deserve may be theirs? Th'
proposal to segregate the work o
women is pestilent nonsense Ne,

Girls Who Paint

I was the other afternoon in the park,
and was looking at the ladies driving in
their carriages. A considerable num-
Der OF them had endeavored to i'm
prove" their compilations, and, what is
more curious, the young ones seem to
have done so even more than the elderly
ones. Now, admitting that to paint the
face be desirable, it ought at least to be
we'll done, particularly when the paint
has to stand the test of sunlight. I
never saw faces worse painted.
An American girl paints from her
childhood upward, and by the time she
goes over to London to be presented at
court and to take part in such other
functions SO dear to the young repub-
lican, she has acquired mastery Of her
art. So again with French women
They know how to paint But English
girls know as little about it as savages.
The white that they daub on their faces
looks blue in daylight; their rouge be-
comes a pale magenta; the black lines
that they draw around their eyes gives
their orbs a bead-like, expressionless
air; the red that they put on their lips
assumes brownish tint and darkens
their teeth; and their attempts to bet
ter their eyebrows generally end in
making one different from the other
London Truth.
