THE WORKING WOMAN.
Her Social ObIigations.-Dress During
Business Hours.

In the good old days when the work.
ing woman was a being set apart from
the social opportunities to almost as
great an extent as her conventional sis
ter she enjoyed certain distinct ad-
Vantages as well as certain very APP
parent disadvantages. The discussion
of her duty to society usually resolved
itself into a discussion as to what she
should wear during business hours and
as to how far she might compromise
with her "Womanliness" by failing to
observe elevated masculine feet and
coatless masculine arms in an office.
But nowadays the problem is more
complicated.
She is invited to dinners and dances
as q matter of course, provided that
she knows dinner and dance giving
people. Her acquaintance no longer
say 1T would be so pleasant to have
Elaine down for the club tea on Sat
urday afternoon only, of course, she
doesn't care for that sort of thing.
She paints, you know" Weeks end
parties are no longer withholden from
her on the ground that law and fond-
ness for rural relaxations are antag-
onistic tastes. 1t is not supposed tnat
she scorns golf tournaments because
she teaches Greek in a woman's COL
lege, or that a yachting trip is out of
the question for her because she is a
real estate broker
OF course, all this is pleasant, but he
who imagines that it is unalloyed joy
to the working woman is reckoning
as she oannot-without the dressmaker,
the tailor, the cabby, the servants and
the other expensive adjuncts of a social
career. For accepted as fact, the pro-
fessional woman is no longer allowed
for as mild monstrosity. She may no
more make her appearance at formal
dinner in shirt waist and cloth skirt,
on the ground that she is physician,
than her brother can make his in
knickerbockers and a Norfolk jacket
and expect excuse to be offered be-

Marlborough, Madame de Malntenon
and Louis XIV. The interest of love
and adventure centres around a young
English lieutenant, who is aide to the
Great Duke, on his campaign in Flan-

are put the plans for the relief of
French Professionals, beleaSuered in their
mountain fastness, in the CeVennes.

1t is vet to lie proved that women who
wear low shoes are more subject to colds
than those who wear high shoes. AS yet.
it is to be proved that those who are con-
stantly on their guard against what is
called exposure live longer than those who
do not care When women not only sur
vive a tickle climate, but come out of its
weight that men would hardly feel, it is
difficult to see how their health can sui
fer because they wear low shoes.
Now take a man-take the average
man. He puts on five thickncsses of cloth
ing on a cold day. He is not content if
the temperature is below Is in his office
He would not think of stepping across the
street without putting on his overcoat.
In most cases he would not venture out
without his muller and overshoes. And
take that mans wife. She wears two or
three thin thicknesses of clothing; She
doesn't mind the weather. She will meet
the blasts of winter with unconcern. In
her home, she will allow the furnace fire
talk, entirely unmindful Of wraps.
Her husband takes colds-alI kinds of
colds-every kind that is going. He Won,
CROUCH to wonder with him and tells him
he must be more careful of himself. May
be she will insist that in addition 10 i'll "
his other precautions against exposure he
shall wear chest protector or porous

is, she seldom does, and. If she does, she

If sheer any other woman-fnds great

former? Even if she wears low shoes and
why blame her? Are not the women of

Are they not harder than the men-as n

Those who had the pleasure of read
ing that witty and altogether enjoy
able story, "A Detached Pirate" when
it appeared in the Smart Set several
years ago, will be interested to learn
that it has been published in book form
by Little, Brown & Co., Boston. The
heroine of the story is Gay Vandeleur,
the divorced wife of an English army
officer, and after her arrival at Hall
fax from London, she becomes great
social favorite. The heroine tells the
story herself in a bright, frank man.
ner, and as the military set in which
she moves is lively one, the readers
interest is never permitted to wane.
Anticipating wide demand for this
clever society novel, the publishers
have illustrated it with five plates in
color, by l. H. Caliga, the frontispiece
of the heroine being a particularly
striking and artistic picture. Tho
author of "A Detached Pirate Helen

and resident of Halifax. She has
written for Lippincott's, the Smart Set,
and other magazines, but this novel is

also that drinking is alarmingly on the in
