and the laughing, happy party were
gathered around It, Ethel sat next -
Clarlce: some half a dozen gentlemen
had tried to get place near her, but
she had eleverly evaded them all.
Clarice was busy over some beautiful
grapes. Looking up laughingly, she
said:

the keeper? He Is very handsome
man. There he is standing by the
well. and how intently he is watching
US"

rsthel, calmly,
But, when Clarlce had turned TO tho
gentleman nearest her. she looked
across st the keeper whose eyes were
fixed intently on her face.
At first she felt inclined to resent the
intent, earnest gaze; proud flush ot
annoyance rose to her beautiful face;

ness of woman as prevails in my
country. Not alone is work arranged
to relieve us from the burden of tell
out of respect to the Office we fill as
mothers, and not alone is social
etiquette prescribed with regard for
the virtue of woman's modesty, which
we exalt, but even the Chinese gov
eminent honors mothers as other ma.
tions honor heroes of wars and great
statesmen. The traveller notices mem
orial arches everywhere, erected by
authority to commmorate some good
or noble deed, or the purity and
devotion of some woman's life. The
goodness of heart of the women OF
China is held to be their greatest
glory. We have a few new women
ourselves in China, but it is ingrained
in our civilization to be suspicious of
any scheme of progression for the
sex that makes a woman's head big
ger than her heart.

MEN ADOPT SHIRT WAIST.
Fair Sex no Longer Monopolize the
Garment.

Women are no longer to monopolize
the shirt waist. Man has long admired
the shirt waist, more especially when
it incased the joyous summer girl.
Now he has incorporated the comfort
able garment in his wardrobe of sum-
mer clothes
What with the fair sex wearing
mems hats, belts, suspenders, ties, coll
lars and smart coats, it became neces-
sary for man to make some sort OF
reprisal. Therefore he has fallen upon
the shirt waist and taken it to him
self And then it was a man who in
vented the shirt waist anyway.
But the Inauguration of the new
garment is meeting with much opposi-
ton. The world is slow to welcome
innovations. 1t will take determined
efforts to stamp out the deep rooted
idea that man is not dressed un-
less he is carrying coat. London
is just discarding coats and high silk
hats, and servants and horses are
dressed with some regard for comfort
and the weather.
The New York man with the shirt
waist is meeting with all the different
kinds of Encouragement that the pro-
fessional martyr encounters. He is
being put out of restaurants, barred
from roof gardens, and when those
things are not occurring to him he is
being sneered at by his fellow citizens.
This man in the shirt waist is just
plain summer man, without any
coat or waistcoat. He wears a pink
or blue shirt, and his trousers are
held in place with belt. The innova-
ton consists in the fact that he leaves
his coat at home. From the stand
point of logic he is all right. What
there is against him is that he is a
novelty and that he looks so aggra-
vatingly cool
Into the Astor House dining room
went the man in the shirt waist this
afternoon. He took a seat. The cashier
came up and said in severe accents to
the man in the shirt waist: Have you
no coat?"
mo" replied the man in the shirt
waist.
Well, then,' the cashier decided in
the manner of one giving an ultima
tum, eve decline to serve you"
But at Newport" continued the
man, everyone goes around like this,
the Vanderbilts, the Astors, and, well,
all the rest of the fellows"
THE millionaires inquired the
cashier beginning to relent.
Yes the man answered, "the mil
lionaires. It's the new fashion just in
troduced."
No one ever dined at the Astor
house in his shirt sleeves" the cashier
said, shaking his head. Then he
thought moment and asked:
You say the millionaires are doing
it and that it's the fashion,"
Yes" explained the VI. in the S. W.,
"and hotel keepers who do not line I'D
may be sued for all sorts of money and
have to pay it, too. Now, may 1 eat
here?"
We'll" the cashier said slowly. 'if
it's the fashion it will have to go, but
| have my suspicious. You see. we
never know everything here, and it
may be as you say. However, I'll give
you the benefit of the doubt. Sit
down and I'll send you waiter"
The man in the shirt waist had won
the day. He sat down and had some
wine with his praised beef.

AN ENLIGHTENING ARTICLE RE-
GARDING THEM.
ARE COMFORTABLY COWNED
At Home They Work in Stores and
Shops and in the Professions,
But Are Surrounded by Many
Agreeable Regulations, so Nine.
WI Writes.

How do Chinese and American wo-
men compare? writes Nine. VA. wife
of the Chinese minister, in Harper's
Bazaar. She ASSERTS that women are
very much alike the world over. A
traveller passing around the world,
visiting Europe and the east and then
coming to America, would say that he
had seen many differences among the
women. He would note the peculiari-
ties of dress, speech, manners and To-
cal customs, what people eat and
wear and how they walk and associate
with one another.
But, after all, what do these things
count? The thoughtful traveller would
have to say that in the more es-
sential relations, as tender mothers,
careful of the welfare of their chill
dren, or as devoted daughters, wives or
sisters, women were much the same
wherever he went. The place OF q
womans birth-life on one side of the
in some small particulars but these
mere accidental influences of locality
cannot alter the first and essential
fact that she is created a woman, with
all those elements which nature &C
cords to the sex. If she is not so
strong physically as the men about
her, that is a reason urged by nature
for giving her a place in the home
where her sex and her share of
strength will contribute most to the
good of those about her and to her
own good. This is SO of women in
China and America.
American women appear somewhat
strange to me in the part they take
in affairs outside the home. In this
country | find women most enterprls-
ing. They are in many trades and
professions, they hold congresses and
discuss important problems. They do
much labor in factories, as clerks in
stores and in the government depart
ment. This is a woman's part in the
new world of which a traveller sees
very little in the east. Apparently
in the United States women are proud
to work for their living, and they do
so without reference to the home.

The loOseness of garments worn by
a lady of the east adds much to the
comfort of mind aud body of the
wearer. She is perfectly at ease, and
this gives her grace of manner and of
appearance; also amiability. 1t must
be difficult to live in a dress which is
SO tight as TO limit respiration and
cause constant physical discomfort.
The women of the western world seem
to pay less attention than we do to
the headdress. Long fine hair may be
most gracefully arranged, and the
women OF the east consider it Of i'm
portance to have their hair dressed so
as to make it part of their adorn-
ment The head is often left bare to
better show the folds of the hair.

In China women, too, work in fac
tories, in stores, as domestics, as
teachers and as doctors. But it is
the poorer classes that work, and if
girl clerks in a store it is always
her fathers store, or if a woman it is
her husbands store. If she studies
medicine she does not go away from
her home She studies with some
male member of her own family who
is a physician, and her practice Is
among women. The well-to-do fami-
lies of China have their daughters al
ways educated at home. We consider
it misfortune that girl has to go
away from home to be taught her
duties in life Neither do boys and
girls go to the same schools in our
country, except in some small viii
lagos, where necessity compelS this.
Our form of society from the begin
ming considers women as the natural
and proper companions of their SEX
Our social functions provide always
for separately entertaining the men
and women assembled. Women have
their relations with men solely under
the protection of the family relation.
This, | think explains the superior
modeSty of Chinese women. Foreign
ers who know our people will admit
that the women of China are always
peculiarly dignified and modest in
their relations with men. Even the
girls sold into slavery, who are thus
doomed to what are held to be i'm
moral lives, are entirely free from
the wantonness of women of similar
moral status in civilized countries.
The classic literature of our people
bears evidence of the pure thought
women. Our classics, unlike the
Latin and English, may all be put
into the hands of young girl to read.
1t Is the regard which Chinese have
for the modesty of woman that is the
strongest barrier against what you
consider here the progression OF the
sex. For women to work like men, We
think. Is not the greatness. but the
misfortune of woman. 1t is only
where cotton factories have sprung up
at Shanghai and a few other places
near the coast that women are to any
extent employed in China. They work
in these factories because they are in
need of money, not because they love
independence. and there is a demand
for them because their labor Is es-
pecially sklllful. Public sentiment,
however. is against employing them.
One often hears indignant complaints
that factory women go to and from
their work in large groups. laughing
and talking freely along the streets.
Such action on the part of women is
shock TO the people of my country.
often think how different It is in
China as l see female employees Of the
government at washington on their
way to work. Our government In
China would be accused OF having
poor regard for the interests of the
people If il employed woman clerks.
The important work of woman. We
believe. Is In the home. This does not
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1900-08-02

mean that we think women are fit
trary, most of our homework is done
by men. Among foreigners who have
experience in our country it is say
ing that the Chinese cook is second
only to the French, and the Chinese
house servant is second only 70 the
German serving man. The work of
woman among us is to bear children
and it is desired that she shall be free
from the burden of toll, so that she
may have time and strength to rear
home happy. The Chinese mother is
most anxious for the welfare Of her
children, watching them with great
care as they grow up. She attends to
the education of the daughters, and
the father directs the education of the
sons. The family tie is very strong
among my people, and the love and
attention which parents give to the
bringing up of children is equaled
only by the generation and respect
parents. This family love is part of
the nature, the religion, the history
and tradition of China.
The custom of calling and of hold
ing receptions which is so generally
observed in this and other western
countries is observed also in the
east, but not always in the same way.
Among people in official position
calls are exchanged, and these often
lead to close acquaintance. But
among private families there is not
so much calling as in this country,
and the calls are among acquaintance
and relatives. Entire strangers are
very seldom brought together, and if
they should meet, DIT does not at once
establish an acquaintance or warrant
meeting soon again. American women
make many friends. They are so hos
pitable and agreeable that they have
many visitors, and all are made well
come. But more time is spent in
visiting here than women in China
can take from their families.
