CHARM OF AMERICAN WOMEN

Sir Philip. Burne Jones, who painted
Vampire" and thereby provoked his
cousin, Rudyard Kipling, to compose
the famous appreciation Of woman as
rag and bone and a hank of hair.
may be regarded, with apologies to
that squire of danes, Max O'Reil, as a
kind of connoisseur in things feminine.
This distinction of his being known. 1t
was natural that on his arrival in
America the reporters should ask him
not what he thought about tall build
ings, express elevators, or the Ameri-
| can habit of eating fruit at breakfast,
all OF which might with propriety have
been suggested to other visitors, but
| rather what he thought about Ameri-
can women.
Sir Philip answered in a way that
! ought to bring a universal blush of
pleasure over the face of the American
continent. The American woman is
smart" he said; "undeniably So She
has what the French call chic. together
with what the English call culture She
wears her gowns with an effectiveness
quite beyond the power of her English
sister. She has eyes that express the
whole gamut of the emotions She
wears no fringes and shows a fine,
broad brow" This will get Sir Philip
| the freedom of the Woman's Common
wealth at Mount Pleasant in the Dis
trict of Columbia. At any rate it
should. 1t is no obiter dictum. 1t is
a professional opinion. 1t comes from
| person who has right to pronounce
ex cathedra on such a question. Only
the schismatic will refuse to accept it.
Besides, Sir Philip is making no lee
ture tour. What he says he says for
the advancement of the truth, and not
| for the sake of augmenting his gate re-
ceipts.
Granting, then, that American wo-
| men have good clothes, expressive eyes
and spacious brows, together with chic
clean, eclat, verve, and je ne sails quot
| the question naturally arises, Why is
it? Is it because of the climate, with
| its violent alterna tons of heat and
cold, its restlessness, it's overcharge OF
oxygen ?The climate of England is by
| comparison equal BILE and sluggish. Or
| is it because of a greater democracy
| and an ample recognition of the hui
mainly of women? Or is it because OF
! the freer life incident to a new coun-
| try? Or, finally, is it simply because
Of the fact that kind fate has so willad
it?
| Whichever one of these causes ex-
plains the phenomenon it is certain
that the phenomenon is here, and, at
| ter all, that is the main point. English
women are, of course, far from being
altogether negligible. George Eliot
Elizabeth Barrett Browning and others
| show that. 1t remains true, however
that in certain qualities of attractive
ness American women as a class maxi
| English women as a class look like one
shilling and three pence. The Ameri
can man is not surprised by the Eng
fish artists remarks. They tell hin
nothing he did not know. He believe!
in American women as much as il
anything else this country produces
and. as Mr.. Kipling once remarked, il
/ ready
To shake the iron hand of fate
/ And match with destiny for beers
on this or any other ground. Sir PhiliI
/ will find that his observat tons on tn
American woman will meet with littl

manner:

-------------
Copyright. 1909. by Daily Story Pub Coz
BY HOWARD DEvINE

Then came Tie other woman She
was inevitable in the nature OF things.
Thornton was handsome, entertaining
and loveable. He was anhungered for
love. Into his life drifted Eva La
Sharpe. with baby-blue eyes that made
Helen's look like tempered steel. light
brown hair through which the sun
had thrown a ray of its very own
light, dimpled and fresh and petite
and ingenious. She had no theories
about platonic affection, the perfect
control OF the passions, the value OF
self denial to increase spirituality or
any of the others. She was conscious
only that she was full of life and glad
ness and reveled in mere existence.
She was tender and sympathetic and
laughter and tears were equally pear
to her blue eyes.
Thornton and Eva La Sharpe met
casually and were mutually attracted.
She had heard whispers of his drsary
home life and when she saw the skad-

idly.
ows in his eyes, her own shone with
sympathy. And sympathy is a dan
gerous emotion for beautiful woman
to feel for handsome man.
She was destined by her ambitious
mamma to be the bride of Herman
Skinner, fifty, bald-headed, thin-lipped,
small-eyed and president of the Six
teenth National bank. She wept at
the very idea.
Given this situation there could be
but one ending. This is best told by
a letter from Thornton to his wife:
New York, June 4.
Dear Madam: When this reaches
you l will be on the ocean outward
bound from the shores l shall never
see again. Eva La Sharpe goes with
me. We will establish ourselves in a
modest way in some village in south
ern Europe, there to find that love
which seemed to be denied us in the
more conventional life which we leave.
1 am very sorry to bring upon you
and Alice this disgrace and can only
say in extenuation that am sure in
your case the blow will be felt only
by your pride and not your heart. God
knows l loved you dearly, and my love
would have kept alive on crumbs of
encouragement, but you killed it de-
liberately and Intentionally and are
rearing your daughter, fear, to break
some other mans heart.
1 wish you all the success and hap
piness in the world and have arranged
our financial affairs in manner that
will meet your approval. Mr.. Birge
will call on you on that phase OF the
matter.
AS for me, 1 am going to live again.
God, the joy of holding in my arms
woman with a pulsating heart and
gladness and sympathy and love in her
eyes. She gives up more than l, for
l can never give her nor
her children name unless
you should find it in your heart
to obtain a divorce. That Is wholly
in your hands. Good-by, forever. and
God bless and keep you and Alice"
Opinion was divided as whether he
was all to blame or whether Helen
should share a portion Of the fault
Everybody agreed, however, that there
were no extenuating circumstances re-
garding Eva La Sharpe. This L. the
habit of the world.

Fatal improvements.

An uptown physician tells Of a Ger
man friend, poor journeyman baker,
who sent his wife to local hospital
when she fell i'll. The physician al
ways asked with interest after the
condition of the sick woman when he
met the German, and was told in re-
ply: well, doctor, they say at the
hospital there's improvement" This
reply did not vary from day to day
for a month or more, and was always
spoken by the German very stolidly,
as though he really did not see in the
report any grounds for hope. Then
one morning, meeting the physician
and being asked the usual question,
he said.
"Oh, she's dead, doctor"
"Dead?' repeated the physician.
what do they say She died off"
"They didn't say-they didn't have
to-" answered the German. Il knew.
She died of too many improvements"

a wealth of affection on her if she had
permitted it. And into his eyes there
grew a light of sorrow and yearning.
When the baby came he frightened up,
believing that might change it all. But
it only made it worse, and not only
did Helen not change, but brought lit
tie Alice up to stifie and look down
upon all demonstrations of affection.
And so Harry Thornton began to be
seen more and more at the clubs and
the haunts of men and to go on long
fishing and hunting excursions and to
spend less and less time at home.
Helen appeared relieved rather than
otherwise aud pursued her triumphant
career
