Must the woman give up the natural

and from cherishing?
Not" said Mrs. Ethel Watts Mum
ford. most emphatIcally.
Decidedly yes" retorted George
Dana Mumford, lawyer and capitalist
and lately the husband Of Mrs. Mum
ford. one Of New York's most talented
and successful woman writers.
Can q woman who writes be. at the
same time. a good wife and good
mother? Can woman devote herself
TO art and her home at one and the
same time?
Certainty" declared Peter Geddes
Grant. broker and lover.
Mrs. Mumford agreed with him very
decidedly. So now the marriage OF
Mr.. Grant and Mrs. Mumford follows
quite naturally on the heels Of the
celebrated divorce case Of Numford
VS.. MumfOrd.
Ethel Dickinson Watts was one OF
the most talented lduSHltIa Vi Ait
south when she met George Dana
Mumford. Born in New York herself
she was still the kigh type of south
ern girl that her mother, Mrs. ID. G.
Watts, meant her to be. She was
tall. athletic, witty. yivacious. beauti-
ful. clever.
Her mother. a woman Of wealth,
saw that the daughters natural gifts
were not neglected. She had fine
education. and then was sent to Paris
to finish. She studied painting un-
der Benjamin Constant; she spent a
year travelling in Europe and the
orient. There was another year in
Japan. long stay in the South seas,
Journeys TO the south and west in the
United States. and visits in Mexico
and Central America.
When Miss Watts got back to New
York. says the World. of that city,
she was bubbling over with ideas
which she longed to put down in black
and white. And so there blossomed
out another successful woman writer.
Then came Mr.. Mumford. He was
rich. good looking. a graduate Of CO.

ber of half a dozen smart clubs. and
well known socially in New York and

wearied of praising it to his friends
so different from Mr.. Mumford, whom
it bored quite thoroughly.
Mr.. Grant frankly told his friends
he believed there were plenty of clever
women who could follow their talents
and at the same time be good wives
and mothers. He held that there
could be no incompatibility between
the art of woman and the helpful
comeraderie of the home.
Finally the time came when he felt
that he coulG say this same thing to
Mrs. Mumford. He did. His answer
was a whispered Yes" just as the

EXPRESSIONS OF ENTHUSIASM FOR BRYAN,

Political circles in this city have all been stir
red up recently by the revival of the talk of VII
nam Jennings Bryan as candidate for the presi-
dency In 1908. Mr.. Bryan served terms in
gress away back in the early 9O's and while in
Washington he made number of
friends and intense admirers. The recrudescence
OF his boom for the presidency has brought great
pleasure and satisfaction to these old friends and
they have seen to it that the mention of his nam
mas received the greatest enthusiasm. 1t has been
noted that during the last few weeks in the house
whenever a Democratic orator would mention the
name of Bryan the applause would be instantane
Gus and enthusiastic. There are a few Hearst en-
thusiasts among the Democrats in the house aud TO
these the mention of Bryan has not been Darticu-
