Partly because she finds the pursuit fas-
Gina ting and partly because she is criti-
cized past endurance, the new woman
sometimes takes a step too far and be-
comes too new. In the summer she will
slip away to the races and put down a lit
tie bet of her own, looking and acting
trif1e out of the conventional. In the
evening she may join a too gay party,
one of the sort that never has chap
eron.
At other times she may affect the man
nish suit, and, when at home with a
friend, she may, just to be sociable, smoke
a cigarette.
These are the indiscretions of the new
woman, but, after all, are they as bad as
the indiscretfon of the old woman?
The old woman fiirts desperately behind
her paint and powder, while she crticizes
the mannish new woman; but the mannish
new woman knows that she is at heart

The old woman on the other hand al

Of responsibility she lives, Why. anybody
with a grain of sense will tell you that
there are more indiscretions committed
by the conventional woman, living with
her mother, than by all the new women
combined.
The conventional woman thinks that she
can do as she pleases if her mother is in
the house; and the poor old lady dozes IN
the corner, while the conventional woman
says and does things which the new
woman would consider beneath herself.
1t is splendid thing to be bachelor
