THE WOMAN LAWYER.
Her Varied Experiences In the La,

Ter Varied Experiences In the Law
School and the Court Room.
A woman student of the law. whether
In an Office or law school, has some
peculiar experiences. To a single wom-
an among a class Of men. the dilemma
OF the lecturers as TO fitting mode of
address Is amusing Most of them will
gaze anxious1y around, and, fixing the
eye upon the lone female, with slight
bow will open the discourse with the
word Gentlemen" One professor was
always careful and courteous enough to
begin with the phrase: Lady and
gentlemen
1t is also amusing and gratifying to
see the refining effect of the lady's en-
trance into the lecture hall or library
line feet do not at once and voluntarily
come down from the table top or back
of the next chair, they are assisted to
their rightful place on the floor by the
hands of some fellow student. Of
course there are always some men who
heartily disapprove of woman's pres
encc within the walls of the law school,
and are pleased to show their disap-

from those of her brothers who are just
beginning. Perhaps she has few
more ''cranls' among her first clients,

they will get more sympathy from a
woman" When sooner or later they
have to be shown the door. their re-
proaches for her inhuman hard-heart-
edness are particularly severe. because

woman
Her clients are not, as many suppose,
chiefly women. On the contrary she is
more likely to be employed by men,
who want to give her chance to show
what she can do. Therefore her cases
are as likely to be questions of BUSH
ness contracts as controversies that are
connected with matters popularity sup
posed to be within woman's sphere.
When she appears in court the wom-
an attorney finds the judges and at
tending counsel as courteous and as
deferential as they would he in her
drawing room. They will treat her as
an equal. except that they will assist
her by placing chairs, handing books
and papers, and doing more favors for
her than for her male colleagues. In
fact they treat her very much as they
| would treat the distinguished legal
lights Of the age if they were within
the bar, that is. with deferential
courtesy. This of course is only the
case when the woman lawyer behaves
as a lady. If she assumes defian,
and bullying manner, as if to demand
special recognition. she will receive the
treatment she deserves. But such con
duct is, l am happy to say. extremely
rare among our women at the bar, and
is much lamented by others who are in
public opinion weighed in the same
balance with such misguided persons

Artificial Limbs.

1t is strange but true that of all the
men who fought in the late war few
lost their arms or legs. Many were
wounded in those limbs, but as com.
pared with the great number that were
shot few lost "a leg or an arm. My bust.
ness, says dealer shows that there
are more artificial legs than arms.
There are many men who have arti.
fetal legs who are able to conceal the
fact, but | do not know of man with
an artificial arm who has ever fooled
anybody with it. One reason, of course,
is that we have not reached the same
perfection in making artificial arms Is
in legs. As a general thing an arti-
fetal arm will last man lifetime.
but all artificial leg is not good for
more than five or six years. The
heavier d man is the shorter time his
artificial leg will last. There is nothing
to which man will become SO much
attached as an artificial limb. He will
wear it us long a, he can.-Chicayo

Women 4si:,un- c,rAers

A society of women piano-tuners has
already Eeen started in London, and
this calls attention to the value of this
employment for women. Providing
women have dettncss OF touch and del
icacy of ear, there is no reason why
they should not do this work unless
there may be difficulty in obtaining
proper instruction. The greatest Oh.
stacle that might exist is the possible
existence Of a guild whose rules would
cxclude women. The work is light, con.
genial. in every way as desirable as
that OF music.teachcr, and. SO far rs ii

AMONG HOME SURROUNDINGS.
That Is Where Most Women Appear to
the Best Advantage.

That Is Where Most Women Appear to
the Best Advantage.
Now when the capability of women
to compete with men in occupations
formerly closed to them is being dis
cussed on every side, it is becoming
obvious to many that the element of
character necessary to home making is
not being stimulated or encouraged to
its proper development in the minds of
many young girls. 1t is difficult to un-
derstand the reticence existing between
mother and daughters in some families
The foundation of this state of affairs
probably dates back to childhood. for
she who does not listen and sympathize
with little chiid's troubles is prepar-
ing for this future lack of confidence
which has wrecked many homes. No
one would expect young woman to
make a success of any pursuit or pro-
fession unless she had received a thor
ough training in that.line. True. the
natural capability and intelligence Of
womanhood will do much to help the
young and inexperienced; but nothing
ever takes the place of a mothers wise
counsel and instruction. Maternal in
difference is said to be one of the great
est evils of the day. 1t is not uncom-
mon to find married women with occu-
pations and interests that occupy their
time almost entirely apart from their
own firesidc.
That q woman nowhere appears to
better advantage than in home sur
roundings is conceded by most men;
but the average woman of to-day is not
as dependent as of yorc upon the mas
culine mind for her views and opinions
on many subjects, and sometimes mis-
takenly refuses to recognize the fact
that while the public can do very well
without her, her place at home can not
SO we'll be filed by any one else. A
proper ambition aud desire for adj
vancement should be the aim of all
women, married or single; but it is
only misdirected am bition that makes
a woman fail to realize the Importance
of her place ut home as compared with
the good she will be likely to accom-
plish else wherein Y. Tribune.

Mrs. 4. Lynn Linton writes in
The Forum paper about what she
calls 'fThe Revolt Against Matri
mony." If divorces are any sign,
there is surely such revolt in ouI
generation. and tremendous one.
Chicago divorces have been noted
for some years, but they have been
latterly granted at rate that will
land two or three so called lawyers
in the penitentiary. A firm of di-
vorce lawyers in New York city has
been unearthed that had magniti-
cent trade in divorces. They were
rapidly becoming milliouaires at
the rate at which they united I'M
happy couples. Any husband or
wife could get divorce for any as
signable cause from these kind
hearted men. The ease with which
the thing was done at length arous-
ed suspicion. Investigation was
made, and revealed that this enter
prising firm had a counterfeit seal
of the county of Cook, H., and
stamped with it all the divorce doc
uments ground out of their mill.
Persons therefore having a Chica-
90 divorce will do we'll to have il
examined. The queerest divorce
cases Of all, however, have come to
light, strange to say, among a peo-
pie popularity supposed never to
want divorces-namely, Jews. In
Russia, as we'll as in some other
parts Of Europe, it is the custom Of
the rabbi of the congregation to
which married couples are attached
to divorce them when he deems
there is sufficient reason; then, in
bis opinion and theirs, they are free
to marry again. Thousands Of
Russian Jews have come to Ameri-
ca in the past few years, aud they
have brought this detachable custom
with them to the land of the free.
One little red headed rabbi, with
one eye, has been granting such di
vorces for twenty years, and has got
good pile of money thereby. In
case of the Jewish divorces it is the
husband who always gains the rab-
binical divorce, sometimes because
he is tired of supporting bis chill
dren, sometimes because he wants
to marry another woman. The
wives are so ignorant that they do
not know enough to apply for di
vorce, or even that rabbi has no
right to divorce them. 1t was only
when some of these abandoned fam
lilies became objects of charity that.
the unique custom was discovered,
and the husbands were arrested for
.bigamy.
Still, all this is nothing against
matrimony. The people who get
the bogus divorces get them because
they want to marry somebody else.
