When Women Live Together.

In the measure that women are deter
mining their own lives they want homes Of
their own Women nowadays drift into
professional and business careers as they
used to drift into marriage. When they
choose to exercise their faculties and to
entertain professional ambitions they be-
gin the practice of certain sort or sepa-
ratism that diverts them from the path
that leads toward becoming wives and
mothers.
The home keeping instinct of woman
after time begins to resemble the home
making instinct of a man. The boarding
house cannot satisfy this and she goes out
to hunt a little apartment. The desire is
entirely reasonable. The woman who is
occupied with daily work needs greater
freedom of movement, more isolation, more
personal comforts and exemption from be-
ing agreeable at all times and places.
She wants to be able to shut her doors
against all the world, and not to be con-
fined within four walls herself And she
wants to open her doors when it pleases
her and to exercise the rites of hospitality
unquestioned In fact, she wants many
things that cannot be had except in her
own home.
There are many of these tiny households
in town, and they are as well ordered and
regular, their rent is as promptly paid as
that Of other and older sorts of household
ers.
These women rarely live altogether alone.
Woman bachelors usually combine against
burg lars and to save expense But their
domestic lives are neither adhesive nor en-
tangled. They have common points of in
terest, but these are surrounded by large
areas of Aforementioned space in which each
moves freely and without interruption. In
its best aspect this new development in
women's lives is worthy and evolves chiv-
alrous admiration.-Ne York Evening

just what it means to have man
of Mr. Howeils' literary skill, long
experience ami wide acquaintance
with authors. 1T the head Of Il maya
zine. is shown in the May number of
the Cosmopolitan. When Mr. Walker
was asked if the advertisement Of
having Mr. Howells associated IN the
editorial management Of the COsmo-
politan was worth the large salary
which man of Mr. Howcll>' ability
commands. ne replied that he was not
seeking for advertisements: that adver-
tisement that mere advertisement
counted for very little but that he
wanted the Cosmopolitan to have the
benefit Of Mr. Howells' literary skill
and mature jud cement in making it
the leading magazine Of its class in
the world. An examination Of the
table of contents of Mr.. Howcils first
issue seems to justify the con!i'lents
placed in his editorial ability. 1t con
