the correct relation. consider what part

mutual advantage and pleasure Each
partner must understand the financial con-
dition or the firm, or the results would be
disastrous. The partnership is only farce
IL one member must ask the other for
money TO transact business for the firm:
but II anything of Importance is contem-

Some Pretty Waists.

New York Evening Post.
OF the materials for rather dresser
waists, suitable for house wear, and to go
with jacket suits, 1t is recommended that
they match in color. or at least approach in
tone, the skirts with which they are worn.
Taffeta is not much used for silk waists,
peau de sole, surah. peau de cygne, and
crepe de chine being considered more de-
sirable. Accordion plated waists of chif-
fon and other light materials are stylish
in plain effects. The spotted and metal
dotted velveteens of last season are not
much cared for now.
charming dinner waist for an at-home
dinner is of pale blue silk muslin accordion
plated. The sleeves are elbow length and
are untrimmed. There is a stock collar of
the muslin laid in folds and striped around
the top and bottom with the narrowest of
Irish lace bands. With the waist is worn
a deep collar of Irish lace which does not
meet by several inches. Indeed ii is little
more than a shoulder decoration.
A deep cream lace waist to wear with a
brown silk coat and skirt is bloused under
a bertha-like arrangement made of three
circular folds of brown silk. These folds
appear under a round yoke of the lace. The
yoke is continued down the front of the
blouse in stole. There is a high girdle of
brown chiffon velvet, fold of which deli
cate material finishes the top of the lace
collar and the silk cuff. The lace of the
waist is embroidered lightly with brown
spangles. II is beautifully in harmony
with the brown silk skirt, even when the
jacket is not worn.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN
WHAT COLLEGE PRESIDENTS SAY OF
WOMEN'S SCHOLARSHIP.
Question of the Wffe's POcketbook
Again Discussed-For the People
Who Like Sausage.
Good Housekeeping

The result of a Western college presi-
dents recent investigation of the compar-
alive intellectual powers Of men and women
will hardly have the effect of swelling mas
culine pride beyond its already ample pro-
Housekeeper. New light on the subject
would seem to indicate that the women
students in our colleges are rapidly out
stripping the men in scholarship. OF six
teen senior students of Boston University
just elected to membership in fraternity
whose test of admission is the highest
scholarship, fifteen were women. Says
President Warren: I'm recent years we
have come to recognize that women are
able to prosecute the most advanced and
difficult work of a university course and
compete on even terms with men,"
80 far as class records are concerned"
says the president of the University of
Minnesota, they seem to show that the
average grade of women in scholarship is
probably a little higher than the average
grade of men"
President King, of Oberln College holds
the opinion that young men do not give
to their college work the close application
that young women give.
President Birge, of the University of
Wisconsin,, presents this explanation:
There is a general impression that women
attain higher scholarship in science liter
allure and arts, but 1t may often be due
to conscientious and faithful work rather
than ability
OF all the theories to account for woman's
superior scholarship this last is the lamest
What is genius but an infinite capacity for
taking pains? And how else can we Judge
the intellectual powers of man or woman
than by what those powers accomplish?
The day for the genius who simply sits still
and looks wise is past. This is the age
of action, and the twentieth century spirit
asks each: what have you done? What
can you do?" If women are winning
through conscientious and faithful work
rather than ability" it is time for man to
wake up. Let US apply President Birges
dictum 10 success in other walks of life
Here is man who has risen through his
own eXertions to be the head of a great in
dustrial concern employing thousands of
helpers. "Oh, yes, says some one COM
menting upon his brilliant career, ''but his
success is due to conscientious and faith
full work rather than ability" But the only
point worth considering is that he did sue
coed and his conscientious and faithful
work is the best evidence in the world of
his ability"
