Of his views upon the sii.l.yer ques-

which he has made for himself
as President Of the United States.
That he is clean and honest is full

At the opening of the ''Cantabrigia, a
new woman's club in Cambridge, Colonel
T. W. Higginson advised against the ladies
trying to do too much. He SAYS women are
more dangerously conscientious than men
are. and intmates that the social side is the
one that will benefit all concerned quite as
much as the philanthropic. New England
women. especially those holding any position
of responsibility, display a stern serious
ness amounting almost To mildew or damp
in its effect upon strangers. They doubt
less inherited it from their Puritan great
grandmothers. whose records have come
down to us as authors of such incredible
numbers of patchwork quilts, braided rugs,
quantities of yarn and knitted socks as to be
quite appalling even to read Of Statistics
show an increase of stature in the women,
of the new generations. II is possible their
spirits may eventually revive and q relaxed
view of life may be taken in spite of all
that is demanded of them. Then the poor
