cH1vALRoUs AMERICAN WOMAN,
An Instance Which Shows That She

From the Saturday Evening Post.
That leader in the woman s-club move

American man to be the superior of the
American woman marks an era in modern
progress. 1t Is not that for a moment we
agree with her. We merely applaud long
step forward in the matter of advanced
thinking.
Years ago an after-dinner speaker-ano

ly apostrophized the new woman (she was

equal" A president of the Oxford Union,
in grave. undergraduate debate. hit on the
case more aptly In declaring that though
the new woman had ceased to be lady
she had not yet become a gentleman.
The signal fact about the present dictum
Is that 1t proves that the speaker has be-
come gentleman. We should not be sur
prtsed to find that the remark was post
prandial. and made with a wineglass tilted
aloft in patronizng toast to the better

The spirit of chivalry has it's root in the

men are conscious of the superiority they

will have become gentlemen all. Is 1t not
up to the American man to look to his

thus acknowledges his superiority.
Meantime the question of the relative
merits of the sexes remains about where II
was A generation ago rural debaters used
to fall about one anothers ears discussing
what would happen If an irresistible force
met an immovable body. The modern ques-
ton OF the superior sex is fitting substi

is possible to discuss it with delighted acri-

WOMEN'S STRANGEPETS
ANIMALS THAT HAVE BEEN USED
AS PERSONAL ADoRNMENTs.
The Chameleon a Favorite Ornament
Bernhardt's Leopard-Snakes
as Bracelets.

From the London Mail.
The prevailing craze for unusual pets was
exemplifed at the opera at Covent Garden
the other night, when a well-known lady
brought with her a chameleon with a deli
cate chain round its neck, which enabled
1t to run up and down the curtains of the
box.
This love Of animals of an eccentric de-
scription is by no means a modern innova-
ton; 1t may be traced back as far as the
time Of the Pharaohs.
Quaint interest doubtless attaches to the
juxtaposftlon of beautiful woman and a
wild beast. Nine. Bernhard and her tame
leopard were the sensation of a couple of
decades ago. Mrs. Arthur Cadogan. Lord
Cadogan's sister-in-law had a fancy for
poisonous snakes. One small snake she fire.
