THE NEW WOMAN.
Mrs. Potter Palmer's Views on
Woman's Advancement.

Mrs. Potter Palmer is probably
more responsible for what is known
as "the new woman movement"
than any other individual in the
world. Speaking of the end of
the century woman she says:
There are times when l am hor-
rifed at the change in the relations
of the sexes which this advanced
woman movement has brought
about. When I was girl it was
the privilege and the duty Of the
men to do all the seeking. The
men were ever the aggressors,
while the girls waited to be hidden.
There was a well-defned line over
which no well-bred girl dared step,
even if she wished to. Now it
seems almost the other way. The
social world, so far as the relations
of the sexes are concerned, is quite
topsy turvey. In this l am not
guessing, or using the joke and
gossip of the day. am depending
wholly upon my personal observa'
ton. 1t is positively true-at least
in the society in which l have
moved-that the girls are now
making more advances than the
men They do it very sweetly and
in a womanly way-thank heaven
for that-but it's a shame they
have to do it all.
The girls can't help it, you may
be sure, it is not their fault. The
conditions have been forced upon
them. Either they must make the
advances or be left alone. Here is
Bar Harbor, and / daresay at every
fashionable summer resort, it is the
girls who arrange the parties, the
dances, the picnics, the drives, the
tennis, the boating expeditions
1t is alarmingly true that the young
men like to get off by themselve.
at the Kebo Valley Club on thei,
yachts, or in their drives ant
sports. Even the fashi enable anc
society-bred young men are gettin,

The girls have been forced to &C
comodate themselves to the taste
of the men. They had choice be
tween that and isolation. In orde

ty-four hours; the work spent by
the muscles in breathing amounts
to about 21 foot-tons in twenty-four
hours. If these figures, which are
given in a contemporary, are cor
rect, a few interesting, though,
otherwise useless, deductions from
them may be made. The power of
operating the heart is then equiva-
lent to $3.50 watts and that of the
lungs .o.66, making total of ass
watts. This amount of power
would develop light of about two
candles in an incandescent lamp; a
man is, therefore, continually, day
and night, doing an amount of work
necessary to keep him alive at a
rate equal to that in two-candle-
power incandescent electric lamp.
If the luminous efficiency (or bet
ter ineficiency) ofthe incandescent
lamp is S per cent, this amount Of
power if converted into cold light,
would represent forty candles which
would make every man wise, or
| otherwise, a shining light, and
would supply all the light necessary
for him to live without artificial
lighting; or in other words, if he
had some organ similar to that in
the FREELY, he could by exerting
the same power as it takes to oper-
ate his heart and lungs, surround
himself with a food of light.
| AS man power is usually rated
as about one-eighth horsepower,
which is equal to 1873 watts, his
efficiency when fully loaded
considering only the internal losses
would, therefore, be about o5 pei
cent, which is remarkably high
especially when we consider that he
| is supposed to have been designed
many thousand years ago, and tt
have been degenerating ever since
But this does not take into accoun
that both heart and lungs will worl
much harder when he is performing
external work; the good result is
: therefore, only apparent and no
real. Nevertheless, some men ar
most efficient when doing treadmil
work. AS we do not know thu
foot pound equivalent to the foo'
which he eats, nor the amount, i
is not possible to carry these figure
any further. 1t is of interest, how
ever, to note in this connection
| that Prof. Thurston considers mai

and line of buckets passed up and the roofs

the fire was confined to the one house, which
was completely consumed.

The folly. from Democratic stand
point, of carrying a national issue into
local politics is strikingly illustrated
by the situa ton in Kentucky. Gen.
Hardin, a free silver advocate, was
nominated by Democratic Conven-
ton which had a majority of sound
money men. The understanding was
that his campaign would be conducted
on State issues alone and wonld in
volve no discussion of national finance.
If this agreement had been carried
out, there would have been no break
in the party and Hardin could secure
the solid Democratic vote in the fall
election. But instead of that the
nominee has lost no opportunity since
he entered upon his canvass to make
free coinage the overshadowing issue.
denouncing the sound money men in
offensive terms and proclaiming not
only his independence of them but his
contempt for them 1t would be more
than human nature for the sound
money advocates to bear this treat
ment without resentment and there is
every indication that on election day
they will stay at home. Gen. Hardin
has cut his own throat by his foolish
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
