Il may be said. / have attended meet

listened to their speeches. When a
woman begins a sentence with 81 feel
that know what is coming.
know she will pour out a slosh of un-
reasoning emotions and prejudices. II
Is this poor creature-the Il feel'
woman-who is the cause of discord and
disruption IN women's clubs. When, on
the contrary, the woman who thinks
makes her speech, you hear clear and
logical presentation Of what she has to
say. She has lain upon her sofa and
reasoned the question out to its straight
conclusion. She has put aside her preju-
dices and her little feelings and used
her brains. The woman who does that in
the club or in business is the dependable
one. You know where to find her. She
will never desert you. If she sets her
head to it she will make fortune in
ture or art. She will not let her emo
tons do duty one moment for her brains.
The 81 FEEL woman, on the other hand,
is the most dangerous person in the
woman's club. She is a mere bundle
of violent emotions playing upon set
OF hysterical nerves. She is as irrespon-
sible as a child. Carried now hither,
now thither by her foolish feelings, sur
charged now with violent affections,
now with equally violent dislikes, she is
like weather vane before the wind. 1t
is the 81 feer' mother who ruins her
children. And one silly 81 feel" woman
will break up whole club.
The true club woman is she who thinks
more of the good of the club than of her
own personal likes and dislikes.
Eleven years ago Belva Lockwood, a
member of the bar in good standing in
the District Of Columbia, was refused
admission to the bar of Prince George
county, Nd, by Judge Magruder, al
though she had business before its court.
She was refused because she was wo1a-
an, and Judge Magruder, in declining %
allow her appearance, went out of hfs
way to say, Il pray God the time will
never come when women are admitted
to the bar in Maryland" A few weeks
ago Mrs. Lockwood again applied for
admission to the bar of Prince George
county, in order to to take up the same
case she was compelled to drop eleven
years ago. This time she was admitted
by Judge Brooks, who is now on the
bench. ''Tharfore the sun do move"
The Lord did not hear Judge Magruder's
prayer.
Is it absolutely necessary to have the

1t is exceedingly gratifying to me to
recall the progress women have made
in daily journalism in New York city.
Half dozen years ago few of the daily
papers employed ladies in any other
capacity than that of society or fashion
reporters. Mildly Morgan was live stock
reporter for The Times and Tribune,
securing the place through a within of
Horace Greeley. Through perhaps an
other whim of the same individual Mrs.
Lucia Gilbert Calhoun wrote noble edi-
torials for The Tribune. But outside
the realm of society and fashion these
were about the only women regularly
employed on the daily press. Now the
New York Recorder has a daily
woman's page edited with signal ability
by Mrs. Haryot Holt Cahoon, and The
World has a similar page in charge of
that brilliant young journalist, Eliza
beth Jordan, also assistant editor of The
Sunday World. The sole editor of The
Sunday Recorder is another well known
woman journalist, Mrs. Eliza Putnam
Heaton. The editor of the Brooklyn
Sunday Eagle is lady, Miss Celia
Kenney. Miss Laura Roake has an
editorial place on the Brooklyn Times.
These ladies belong to the New York
Woman's Press club. There are dozens
Of other women who now do some of
the brightest and most attractive special
work on the Sunday editions of the dai,s
papers.

pamphlet advertising winter hotel in
Florida. To the eloquent description of
the advantages to be enjoyed at this
hotel is appended the name, ''P. A.

advertisement of the hotel, and will
not tell you its name, but the interest
ing point about it is that ''P. A. Dor.

of must be done just right. she learned
