WOMEN IN GERMANY.
Men Will Die for Sweethearts but
ll-treat Their Wives.

Il
We do not vouch wholly for the fol-
lowing utteranceS of a titled German
lady on the social condition of her own
sex in that county, says the Chicago
Herald. If, however, she speaks APP
proximately the truth, it is rather a
severe arraignment, and reflects greatly
to the discredit of the opposite Sc in
her own land. She says: Men will
die tor their sweethearts, but their wives
must live for them. Ii you marry a
poor man he expects you to blacken his
boots. If you wed rich man he ex-
poets you to do the same mentally. A
German girl is we'll educated in books,
needlewOrk and housekeeping. She
seems bright enough until she settles
down into 'hauSmutter,r with few
ideas beyond her kitchen and nursery,
and no topic of conversation except the
lnlQuityof her servants and the eXtrava-
gance of her neighbors. The result is
that the women are inferior to the men,
and the men argumentative, self-opin-
donated and eg0tistical. And they all
believe, from the kaiser down, that
women were created simply to cater to
their fancies and bring more men. into
the world for other women to wait upon.
Our actors are always better than our
actresses, our tenors and barytones out
shine our sopranos and contraltOS, even
our men ballet dancers are more agile
than their Short-skirted colleagues, and
in the great land of scholars and philoso-
pliers and writers there are fewer
women of note in educational or literary
standing than in any of the other civil
lied countries"

Philadelphia Press.
1t cannot be said that the familiar
arguments advanced by advocates of
women's rights in favor of this particu-
lar and delicate privilege are at all con-
vincing. Nor does it matter much that
Queen Victoria was compelled by royal
prescription and etiquette to take the
initiative in marrying Prince Albert; or
that Mile. de Praga courted Nj. de Les
seps; or that Priscilla asked John why
he did not speak for himself; or that
Mrs. Hopkins, as we have recently
learned, proposed marriage to MIR.
Seares. These isolated instances have
neither carried weight as presidents
nor has the conduct of the women con-
cerned been esteemed by the sex as
exemplary.
< Il believe" says our speculative
bachelor, Il have asked nearly every
prominent lady lecturer on behalf of
women's rights if this is not state of
things that needs as much reforming as
anything else, and in every instance L
got an affirmative answer. But ask al
most all other women and you will get
the opposite answer"
There's the rub. Marriageable wom
ell, it would appear, want to be won by
wooing. They like the process. Is it
possible that only unmarriageable
women wish to WOO? We do not say it:
we ask. Dean Swift believes that the
reason so few marriages are happy is
ss'because young ladies spend their time
in making nets, not in making cages"
That, however. is neither here nor
there, save in the important Implication
that it is the woman. after all, who
snares the man. What if the proposal
be by indirection? 1t is none the less eff
fective. We may think and speak of the
demure maiden as a passive creature
patiently abiding the arrival Of her
knight. 1t is pleasing fiction, the very
SuStenance as it is the source OF roman
tic love. But, If no direct proposal
issues from the lips of the passive girl.
what. if not local, are the Invitations
flashing from her eyes, the pretty prof
fer of her fiuttering hand, the engaging
fiattery of her absorbed attention, SO
cleverly counterfeit, SO Irresistible?
The process is roundabout, as we have
said, but it is wholly efficient. Women
do propose, and their way of doing it is
eXquiSite-the most potent and eXclu
Sive of their immemOrial and impre-
scriptible rights. To disturb in any de-
tail their method of proposal would be
to pollute the very springs of romance.
AS matter of fact, few women, but
many men, would care to see this done.
For there is no denying certain
piquancy in the prospect Of the sterner
sex receiving with averted head and
downcast eyes the passionate pleading
of the emaRciDated girl of the coming
period. Then the sweet revenge OF
growing: Stop, please: it cannot be;
you only distress me. But Ill be
brother to YOU"

clear-eyed, candid girl whose yea is yea
and nay, nay.
Here is another letter from gay
young curled darling of society:
do let Jack kiss me? You goose, to
mamma or Aunt Dedlot always sit Sc
we're propriety in the drawing room
whenever he calls, and then lecture me
for four mortal hours after he has gone
on the modesty of young girls and their
proper conduct in the society of young
men? But If you'll never, never tell.
Pll let you into bit of secret. The
other day, behind the hall portiere, as
Jack said good by, he accidentally got
caught in the fringe, and in STOPPING to
disentangle himself he was so near
my face = but you can guess the
rest. Well, [ was really fright
ened, for mamma and Aunt Dedlock
have said so often that it Was positively
awful for a young girl to let man kiss
her, no matter if they were engaged.
that [ waylaid papa the other night and
coaXed him into the library and climbed
into his lap, and then astonished him
by asking him if mamma allowed him to
kiss her before they were married. You
ought to have heard him laugh. And
the way he jumped at conclusions was
so perfectly absurd, for. instead of
answering my question, he eXclaim ed:
IF Jack Dickens can be engaged to a
girl like you and not find opportunity
to kiss you, in spite of forty duenna
mammaS and aunts, he hasn't got yeast
enOughln his veins to be my Son-in-law."

favorably known as worker for woman

sional committee in Washington re-
Gently to talk on her favOrite theme,
says the Chicago Herald. 1t is said
that she made quite all impression on
the members of the committee with her
smooth, banded hair, close Quaker bon
net, with strings flying and hands
clasped behind her. She made pretty
lead by expressing her pleasure at
finding them such fine-loOking
lot of men. The condition of
women In old times in Massachu-
sets was simply awful, according to
the description she gave those men, and
they really looked surprised that their
fOrefatherS could have been so ungen-
erous towards women. She urged this
committee TO recommend sixteenth
amendment with an educational qualfi-
cation. She didn't expect the states
would adopt it, but they could recon-
mend it Just the same. The good old
lady made telling point when she
urged that women ought to be given
equal rights on the score of economy
alone. when women come to con-
graSS," said Mrs. Stone, "they will not
submit to unreasonable expenditures.
They will be economical ana peaceful.
Expensive wars will not be allowed.
They will save the money"

Girls Carry Daggers.

Detroit Free Press.
1t is the latest fancy of society girls to
carry Spanish daggers concealed in their
clothing. The custom was started by a
Spanish girl who always carried a
tiny one thrust in the front of her
dress. Its jeweled hilt was visible
as it stuck out with protruding
handle. The proper caper in dag
gers is very keen steel blade about
four inches long, and a handle of
mother of pearl. The blade is, of
course, sheathed and the handle is pro-
tected also by covering, unless one
wishes to wear it in the belt or in the
front of the dress for ornament 1t is
not designed that any particular harm
should be done with these weapons;
they are carried merely for beauty aud
to form objects foi society's small talk

she did.

York Recorder.
The Lafayette" is danced in polka
time. and in it is introduced step SINH
lar to the old heel-and-toe polka step.
Then there is complete turn made in
which the partners, released from each
others touch, make a complete circle,
and, joining hands again, in perfect
time resume the dance. with redowa
and polka steps. In appearance, it is
little like the Berlin, which was SO
popular last year.
The Aurora and Vienna need skilled
teacher to lead one successfully through
their intricacies, as in each the step is
changed three or four times. In the
Vienna the rocking horse or seesaw step
is introduced, and in the Aurora the
partners face, dance side by side
and face again with a rapidity and
ease very startling to the uninitiated.
Both of these last named can be danced
to waltz time, although the special
music written for them is usually pre-
ferred.
All these dances show the rapid trend
of public sentiment toward what may be
termed scientific dancing" to which
dances like the Caprice, Military Schot-
tiscne, Yorke, etc, have been leading. The
simple, single step dances are too COM
mOnplace and are rapidly losing favor
Dancing now requires as much work
with the head as with the heels, and one
OF the best known dancing masters in
the state recently remarked, speaking
of the hard work which these dances
entaiied on teacher and scholar. that
only man or woman with brains could
make a graceful and perfect dancer
| nowadays.
When the dancing masters meet at
| their annual convention all the dances
| that have been composed by the various
| members are submitted for approval.
| If satisfactory. they are taught to the
classes the following season, and those
| that stand the test of public favor are
| continued, while the rest are dropped,
| ana are usually unheard of except by
| dancing class devotees.
! At present most of the dances above

no doubt that they will become as well

look anxiously at every baby that comes

find some improvement in the type;
some increase in stamina, compared

steady deterioration observable. This
deterioration is particularly noticeable
among the children of very active moth
ers. The cleverest ami most highly
educated women, the women who
take the most active part in

weakly and puny children. Another
thing, woman are going into too active

Women mist place before themselves
the alternative to earn their living, to
exercise their faculties, and to crafty
their ambition in professional career,

and if they choose the domestic life
they must recognize that they must
sa crifice their personal happiness and
