Jewish Woman Scientist.

Mrs. Hertha Ayrton who is already known to
some extent in America, can now claim recognition
as Engands foremost of science, according
to the Hebrew Standard. She is the first woman in
the world to win the Royal Society's medal by her
own unaided efforts in scientific research. Mime.
Curie has the medal, it is true, but it was awarded
to her jointly with her late husband for their dis
covery of radum.
Oddly enough Mrs Ayrton is also the wife of
renowned man of science, her husband being Pro-
fessor w. E. Ayrton, the distinguished electrical
engineer and inventor. She received the Royal So
ciety'S coveted medal on the last day of November
the occasion being the annual banquet of this body
1t was awarded to her at meeting of the sociey's

then man may be homey If, however, we judge
beauty from less narrow point of view and ask
whether we'll built we'll proportioned man may
be called beautiful man, then the assertion be-
comes open to discussion.
Apart from the moral qualities-which need
not consider, because this is a question of beauty
only-woman has nothing more left to her credit
than her fraglity gentleness and gracefuness while
man has the advantage of his strength If woman
must please by her face and manners, must
display force and dexterity than his rival and
if in this he need not be beautiful
and has right to his LONELINESS, he must be beau
tiful in its true sense-that is to say he must be
physically superior to woman. Thus there two
different standards of beauty for the two that
make comparison impossible. Can the delicate,
frail flower that attracts by its bright coors be
pared with the powerful oak that spreads its robust
branches to protect the flower?

Standards of Beauty.

Woman has not always been more beautiful than
man. says the New York Tribune. Such feminine
esthetical selection would be exception in
nature, where the male is always found more beau
tiful than the female.
Is woman really beautiful? Man will I'm
hesitating1y answer this question in the affirmative
For beautiful according to the broadest definition
of the word, is what like, and undoubtedly
likes woman better than the representatives of his
own sex. But it is also safe to say that woman likes
man as much likes her; hence, the beauty of
the sexes is balanced Is it mans right to be homely
Before answering this question must first come to
an understanding about the meaning of the term or,
what amounts to the same, what is commonly con-
sidered beautiful in human being Do under
stand by it delicate and regular features? If so,
