/ Sullivan, who is ernationally recOg-
! niZed IS one OF the ablest writer's OF
the DAY. Although Mrs. Sullivan is q
daily writer OF columns OF editorials
she is a most admirable hoUsekeeper
and charming hostess. Even in the
library, which is her work shop, there
is not the least disorder nor the slight
est suggestion Of the clutter Of belong

wives.
This same library is n most interest

pied by broad bay window that ad
nits the north light which artists love.
The other sides are lined from ceiling
to floor with books and periodicals,
many OF which it would not be possible
TO duplicate With the contents of
these many volumes Mrs. Sullivan is
perfectly familiar. She has the rare
ability of easily separating the irrcle-
want from the valuable and retains an
Whatever she reads that is of impor-
tant interest.
In the midst of her library is broad,
mattcr-of-fact table with a straight
backed chair before it. At this table
Mrs. Sullivan often writes ten uninter-
rupted hours without conscious weari-
ness. At the right of the table is
rack containing file of great foreign
journal famous for its summaries Of
European progress. This epitome of
important events in all parts of the
world Mrs. Sullivan expressly values.
She has complete file of it for the
past ten years and has read it so thor
ou3hly that she can refer with ease TO
anything it contains. Among the many
curious and interesting things here is an
autograph photograph OF George Eliot,
one of Cardinal Newman and a com

Aubrey de We're. There are also

itol is a list OF members OF the press
who are entitled to admission to the
press gallery, commencing with the
Alexandria Gazette and ending with
the Washington Post, giving the name
of the correspondent after the name OF
each paper. This list of newspapers
and newspaper men is Of special value
TO correspondents, as they can tell at a
single glance which newspapers are
represented at the national capital, the
names of the correspondents and the
street numbers of their Offices and res

nant 10 the customs of the galleries for
correspondents to make applications
for work TO newspapers already repre-
sented in Washington, as shown by the
list.
The rules of the senate and house re-
qUire that every person desiring adj
mission to the press galleries shall
make application to the speaker Of tho
house of representatives, in writing,
and shall state for what paper or
papers he IS employed; and shall fur
ther state that he is not engaged III
the prosecution Of claims pending be-
fore congress or the departments, and
VII not become so engaged while al
lowed admission to the gallery; and
that he is not in any sense the agent or
representative Of persons or corpora
tons having legislation before con-
gress, and VIII not become either while
retaining his place in the gallery.
A standing committee of five corre-
spondents, elected annually by a mass
meeting Of correspondents, performs
the duty of supervising all applica-
tons, and prevents occupation of the
gallery by any other than bona fide
Geographic correspondents Of repu-
table standing in their business, who
represent daily newspapers.
Clerks in executive departments and
persons engaged in other occupations,
whose chief attention is not given to
newspaper correspondence, are not en-
titled to admission to the galleries.
This rule is made necessary by reason
of the fact that there are hundreds OF
literary men in the executive depart
nents of the government who would
interfere with the wage earners in the
legitimate news-gathering business,
if they were not excluded from the
press gallery by the rules of the house
of representatives, the senate and the
standing committee of newspaper COR
respondents.
Members OF The families of CORE
spondents are not entitled to admission
60 the galleries. nor can they secure adj
mission for their friends at any time.
The press galleries are not aristocratio,
but they are exceedingly exclusive,
solely as a matter Of business, for the

brought her an offer 70 prepare a
volume of childrens stories. This
volume, which Is illustrated by one of
the professors of the Chicago Art insti-
tute, is now in press.
Mrs. Fessenden is a native OF New
York city. Her father was A. C. Day
ton, a gentleman OF leisure who de-
voted himself to literature and was the
author Of that charming book, Last
DAYS of Kniclerbocl1er L.fe." Her
brother is Hon. Charles Dayton, the
present postmaster of New York city.
Mrs. Fessenden has for many years
contributed to leading periodicals, and
quite regularly 10 Texas Siftings. She
writes for love Of 1t, and her work has
q sparkle and spontsneity that is as re-
freshing as it is fascinating. She is as
gentle of nature as Of breeding. and il
another author whom it is privilege
to know.
When the unique little book Ga Song
Of Life" was given to the public, the
scientists with one accord declared
that 1t was sound from their point Of
view and the literary folk unquaEfed-
" approved the simple, direct, digni-
fed style. This was Miss Margaret w
Morley's first literary venture. She
had written it in addition to her regu-
lar work as tencher and because she
felt that there was demanding need
for what she had to say. That she was
not mistaken % to this need is evil
denced by the fact that the little work
has had constantly increasing sale
during the two years since it was pub
Eshed.
Miss Morley is at work on several
books, and which of them VIII be
finished first is matter of the utmost
uncertainty. While accurately scion
tidc in her methods of thought and
study, she depends largely upon that
impulse which is not controlled by vo-
lition in her literary work. and al
though her effort in this line is n source
of happiness, she finds change a means
of rest. and Is therefore carrying for
ward the work on a number of diff
ferent books, one of which is novel.
Miss Morley is tall, slender young

Why Do They Look Cool In Them While
Men Are Swcltering?

It is the prevailing impression among
men that the masculine is the superior
sex. AS question Of superiority must
be decided by intelligence. and as the men,
by their confession possess and control
a majority Of the worlds intelligence,
il follows. as a matter of logic, that their
conclusion IS impregnable. We See many
things to support their claim. Women
are charming, often brilliant, always
lovely and yet they have limitations over
which men can jump with ease and dig
nifty. The men can run better. can walk
further. can speak longer than the WOO
men. They can play baseball and Indulge
in recredtiOnS which women cannot enjoy.
They can shoe a hen more thoroughly,
and they can shy a rock at tunetul
cat with less risk Of breaking the neigh
boris window-pane. Men can dress
quicker. and In SOME portions Of their
attire they have the. decided advantage
over the other sex
