beth Rosen, daughter of the Russian am
bassador, returning to Europe to make
her debut at st. Petersburg, and Miss
Helen Taft, only daughter of the secre-
tary of war, going in for a college career
in preference to tour of the world and
presentation to Washington society with
all the eclat of cabinet bud. the debu-
tante ranks at the national capital cease
to be of national Importance.
So
The New Era Woman's club of Pitts
burg, having an abundance of civic pride,
and being impelled to set it's moral force
against some of the influences that have
made its city rank high among the serv-
itors of Mammon, has, in its campaign
of criticism, brought a heavy indictment
against the women. 1t says that it is the
women and girls of Pittsburg who are
responsible for the unwise and general
purchase of automobiles by men who can
not afford them. Homes are mortgaged,
heavy debt incurred the future endan-
gered by the prodigality and recklessness
lof the automobile mad women.

sIrish women who led the rioters al
Rosecommon recently recall the fact that
in ancient Ireland women always went
| to war and fought in the front. There

| MacNessa), some of whom. like Medb or

| tary academy In Scotland. where many
of the great Irish chiefs received their
military education.

away from the neighborhood because II

ever known to give of Napoleon was: "Ii'
looked to me like little fellow, with all
awfully large nose
