A favorite fling of the French at
the English has always been that the
latter are a nation of shopkeepers
An English woman has now called
Americans "a nation of housekeep-
ers." During a recent visit to this
country she was struck by the fact
that so many American women of
means and refniment either do their
own work" or actively superintend
the domestic arrangements. taking a
pride in this duty, says Robert Web
ster Jones in the Housekeeper. Our
friend was surprised to learn that
IAN American woman will spend the
forenoon in cooking, or busting, or
cleaning, then dress herself like a
duchess and sally forth to the meet
ing of a fashionable club where she
is to read a learned paper like as not,
or else call a carriage and make a
round of social calls. And her stand
ing does not seem to be impaired in
the least, by the fact that during
part of the day she has done the work
of a mental, nor has it affected her
own personal attractiveness."
