papers now catering to the jaded tastes
Of the public are this very minute ripe
to catch at some new fad. Far be it
from me- to encourage a "fad' at the
expense of good, honest work, but there
might still be new idea that would be
honest and legitimate, and it might at.
tain even the popularity Of Aubrey
Beardsley's efforts without being bad
drawing, grewsome or horrible.
For the newspaper the drawing should
have as few lines as possible, and these
should be bold and telling.
Suppose you go to the theater and
make spirited sketch Of scene on the
stage, or You catch well known man
in characteristic attitude at some pub
lie meeting. Take your sketch to the
editor of paper that uses these things,
and tell him you would like to do this
work for him. If it shows originality
Or hasa graphic way of telling its story,
you will stand a good chance of getting
assignments from the paper
If you are good at manufacturing
Jokes and illustrating them, you are
quite sure to find sale for such work.
Strike ont in new path, and success
is yours.
Meanwhile, if you are determined to
paint the salon picture, set up your lit
tie studio with your canvas Oh the easel
and paint on it between the bread and
butter orders. 1t may come about by
and by that you will do the thing only
that you love best to DO but you surely
will have found much sweetness, indo-
pendence and strength in working your
way to your goal ALICE L. IVES.

A woman-a foreigner, Russian

Her business and her success did not
all come in day or year. But she
earned it honestly, and no one among
her thousands of patrons begrudges IT,
The secret of her success is an unfalllng

and had studied her corntry's literature
as well as that of others. She was a

So she, with her husband and two

5000 rubles or some 81, 200. But they
shared tho misfortunes that come tc

months after their arrival, and she was
left in New York to care for herself
and the two little boys. The money was
dwindling. She hired herself to do sew

worked for nothing as learner, and

ulares that she is his first and only love; g;
that he never thought any other girl
worth glancing at before he met her;
that, in fact, he used to wonder what
other fellows meant by failing in
love, and all that. There seemed to be
no sense in it until one day-you re.

THE NEW WOMAN.
Answer to the Question What Good Wom-
ems Clubs Have Done.

ems Clubs Have Done.
While it cannot he denied that some
wMnCn's clubs seem to exist mainly to
show off the bonnets and gowns Of the
members the list Of really useful ones
becomes wider with each returning au-
tumn. This year in New York city
there was intense activity among the Ia
dies political organizations, more than
there has been at amy time before. Each
candidate for mayor had clubs Of 7vOm-
en- working enthusiastically for him.
in fact, several women have been reg
ul&rly employed from some of the par
~ headquarters to 20 ont among two
meetings If mon aud directly address
voters themselves. These ladies are
vCrT popular and elective speakers too.
Meantime tie record of one club, ~
nonpolitical one, will NOW the magnih-
cent Possibilities for good that lie
within the power Of organizations Of
women. That is the Chicago Woman's
club. Mrs Ellen NJ. Henrotin has pre-
pared the brief statement copied below,
merely making mention Of tho clubs
achievements. When you are asked
what good women's clubs do, just point
your qucstiOncr to this record.
1t supplied $4,000 persons with work
during the depression that followed the
closing of the Worlds fair.
1t introduced the kindergarten system
into the Chicago public schools
1t established tho Childrcn's Aid So
ciety, which distributes garments to
poor school children.
1t raised $35, 1000 to aid the Kenwood
industrial school for boys.
1t secured the appointment Of q wo.
man physician in the insane asylum at
Dunning.
1t supports the school for boys in the
city Jail. u
1t inaugurated the movement for
raising funds for the woman's dormi-
tory at Chicago university.
1t raised all endowment fund scholar
ship for the Art institute.
1t has organized tho following asso-
Citations: The Protective Agency For
Women and Children, the Physiological
institute, the Society For Physical Gull
ture and Correct Dress, the Public
school Art association and tho Chicago
Political league.
By the way, come to think Of it,
where is any club Of men that has done
as much as this?
"Who could fall in love with that!"
exclaimed o man on looking at the
picture of an American lady who has
won noble place in Il profession. Who
wants you to fall in love with her, you
conceitcd idiot? Not the woman herself,
certainly. The solid fame and money
she has obtained for herself are worth
moro than the tlceting admiration Of q
thousand shallow Drained jackanapes
like you You and your kind will find out
that the Almighty made women for
something else than merely to be fallen
III love with by fools. First and foremost
OF all, he created her for herself, to de.
velop rs an individual her capabilities
without reference to anybody else.

wonder if this is true 1t certainly has
not been SO III my own experience. The
best friends of my life, those with

and hearts if they ever batter down the
cruel iron walls Of prejudice supcrSti-

goodness, the power and truth there.

nit no one else to say such word in
