Various Types of Women.

1t takes all kinds of women to
make up a world, observed the Com
muter How superficial is he who
classes all women as Women Just
as he says, cats or ..geese'-as If by
virtue of their sex they all had the
same traits, habits, characteristics
and effect! There is more resem-
| blance between men of certain type
and women than there is between
two different types of women.
See the jolly girl over there-the
girl with the firm rounded chin and
the sensible nose and the wide-open
| way of laughing. Not bit pretty,
IS she? But SO frankly good HUI
mored and unaffected that she'll
| Keep those two men interested all the
| way into town. Hasn't she the most
delightful way OF. thrusting out her
| chin, and narrowing her eyes, and
wrinkling up her face when she
laughs? She has charm, that's what
she has. If she weren't so sweet
tempered and jolly she would be
homely.
"On ahead there is an awfully Sc
| rious girl. She has the knotty fore
head of profound thinker. Does
she ever laugh, 1 wonder? I can i'm
agine an icy smile blowing frigidly
| about her lips upon proper occasions.
III bet she converses in Sanskrit, and
| teaches slum children for diversion. !,
A distinctly third type of woman
| Is the girl opposite. Pretty, isn't she?,
or would be if some one came
| along to wake her up. Too timid
| and interpretive. Much effort might
induce her to blossom into fun and
| happiness. But you can't imagine
her forgetting herself so completely
as to make other people laugh, can
you? like our jolly friend there
with the firm, rounded chin.
Now, what in common have any
OF them with the next woman-that
| female of fifty summers and over.
| with dangle earrings and simpering
mouth, and false hair, done UP in
style too youthful by forty years?
Never, If those other girls live to
hundred years could they grow to
bear even the faintest resemblance to
that!
| THE fifth and last woman. Well.
| II you don't believe she's different.
watch her when she gets out. Those
| little shifting eyes and receding chin.
and pugnacious nose, and tight-set
lips mean trouble. First time ever
saw her she was raising a row in a
restaurant. She's the kind Carries
a chip on her shoulder-has a ire
mendous sense of her own impor-
lance, and is always watching out to
! see that nobody disputes it.
when the train stops the timid
girl will sit still till the cars empty;
| the girl with the knobby forehead
will quietly slip into line and go out
with the procession; the sentimental
spinster will smirk all around wait
ing for some man to give place to
her; the jolly girl will go out care
fully shielded from the crush be-
tween her two friends, and still
| laughing.
| But the pugnacious woman, with
shifty eyes and aggressive nose, will
be on her feet before the train stops,
and push and bruise and beat and
batter her way to the door, treading
belligerently on toes, and dealing an
cry scowIs right and left as she goes.
| and yet you say 'Women!' as if
they were all alike" sighed the Com
muter. These are only five types.
And there are just as many more
millions types as there are women in
the world. "-Philadelphia Bulletin.
