Mrs. Hayden looked suspiciously at
her husband, but he was busy wrest-

appeared innocently absorbed in the

WOMEN ARE DOMESTIC
1T is DENIED THAT WOMEN ARE
NO LONGER HOME LOVERS
Men Preach One Thing and Practice
Another-The New Woman Is an
Improvement Over the Old, and Men
Like Her Better.

Some man says somewhere that
women are not as domestic as they
used to be. And he asks, why aren't
they? He becomes very cross and dis
agreeable in what he says, and We
must Immediately argue with that man.
Suppose women aren't as domestic as
they used to be; there is no particular
reason why they should be. They are
domestic enough. This man proceeds
to blow up the entire sex because few
women take to dogs instead of babies.
That man thinks he is very smart; we
think he is exceedingly stupid.
Women have advanced; they are still
domestic, but they have grown out and
somewhat beyond sitting at home with
cotton wool in their ears, never going
out, and believing everything their
husbands tell them.
There is not the slightest reason why
a woman should not have family, and
yet look we'll and be intellectual. And
women have learned how, that is all.
To be domestic no longer means to look
like a fright. and have no interest out
side of baby food and cleaning house.
Our grandmothers were admirable
women and suited to their times; but
what man wishes his wife to go back
for ii is a going back-to that time?
Let the man who dares say that women
have not improved. And let the very
man whom we are trying to down, go
to a reception or gathering of men
and women anywhere, and by whose
side do We find him? By that of the
woman whose soul is consumed in
thought about her pillow shams? Not
by-a good deal. Beside the intellec-
tual woman who can talk and who has
read and who answers back.
Women are not deteriorating; they
are simply developing and finding
themselves. Men preach one thing but
they practice another. They talk loud
ly about domesticity and babies, and
why women don't do this and do that,
and then they go to work and give the
lie to their speech by picking out the
very women who stand for what they
howl about. Oh, these men are very,
very funny! (Here's where Marie will
Henry demonstrating with her and
asking how she dares write such in
cendiary stuff and put it in print.)
But this man who has said silly
things about women has been investi-
gated and we find that his wife is the
president of the Amalgamated Sisters
of Peace and secretary to the Society
for the Suppression of Husbands. and
treasurer for the United Order of An
cient Danes. Well, you see, she went
out of town and husband thought it
was about time to roar, and not liking
flor very good reasons of his OWN to
blame any particular woman, he put it
on the sex in general-and now he feels
better. But just wait until wife comes
home from the convention We have
no more to say; We are perfectly sure
she will attend to him.

CAPT. PEARCE MAY BE
ASSIGNED HERE.

Popular Young officer is Prominent
ly Spoken of for Appointment.
Among the men most prominently
spoken of for the position in connec-
ton with the organized militia which
is provided for under the Dick militia
bill, is Capt. Earle D'A. Pearce, of
Thomson, Georgia, who is at present
stationed at Honolulu, Hawaiian Is
lands Capt. Pearce is a very popular
officer in the army, and it is under
stood that strong pressure is being
brought to bear to bring about his APP
pointment to the position.
Capt. Pearce has had the distinction
of being the youngest captain in the
United States Army, and is to-day
the youngest considering term of SER
vice. if he does not still hold the dis
tinction. His record in the army has
been one of continued success, and on
numerous occasions he has received
the commentator of those higher in
rank of his judgment in military mat
tiers and his thorough knowledge of
the tactics and regulations.
He was graduated from West Point,
and was made a captain at the age of
"a. He wac lately commandant of
Fort Candy, Washington state. He
was in command in the first detach-
ment sent to the Philippines. and saw
two years of service in various parts
of the islands. He made many friends,
and was recognized as one of the best
posted military men to be found on the
island.s His popularity is due in no
small degree to his utter lack of con-
ceit, and excellent knowledge of men.
He is a brother of Mr. Furman
Pearce of Savannah, who is United
States deputy marshal. On one occa-
sion, about eighteen months ago. he
visited his brother in Savannah, and
during his short stay made many
friends. Many of the military men in
Savannah have interested themselves
in his cause, and there is little doubt
that he will be appointed. By many
he is considered the logical appointee.
The section of the Dick bill under
which the appointment is to be made
is No. 20, the text of which is
That upon application of the Gov
ernor of any state or territory furnish
ed with material of war under the pro-
visions of this act or former laws of
Congress, the Secretary of War may,
in his discretion, detail one or more Of
fcers of the army to report to the
Governor of such state or territory for
duty in connection with the organized
militia. All such assignments may
be revoked at the request of the Gov
ernor of such state or territory, or at
the pleasure of the Secretary of War"
