MRS. POTTER PALMER HAS
MANY RIVALS.
Chicago Society Women Dispute Her
Leadership.

Mrs. Potter Palmer, Chicago's So
cial leader has many ambitious riv-
ais, says The Delineator for January.
She first asserted her right to her
present position in society during
the famous Fair of 1893.
A Worlds Fair, it will be perceived
by now, meant more back in the last
century than it means today. At all
events, Mrs. Palmer proved her right
then to her life crown. She has worn
it, never arrogantly, but always with
the most delicate tact, gift of the
gods which never deserts her, how
ever trying the hour. In new state
of society, the social arbiter is called
upon for the most sudden decisions,
which, more often than not, reach
farther than the eye of man can dis

full share of them, all distinguished
for good sense and for level percep-
tons. Chicago society women, how
ever, are daring enough to be the one
body in the known world to cast the
shadow of doubt on Mrs. Palmer's
prestige in her home town. And
since they cannot beat her at her
world game, which started far back
in 1893, that memorable year when
social lines were drawn in Chicago
for practically the first time, Chicago
women have been attempting to de-
eide the question, at least to put the
question to popular vote, by means
of charity. 1t is an odd condition OF
affairs, something peculiar to Chica-
go, and it has grown to such proper
tons that the coming Winter may
see the death blow dealt to the char.
ity fete in Chicago.

the world by its spectacular rapidly
of development. We came into the
sisterhood of nations an evangel oil
liberty and herald of better days
to The nations. But we are the
Spendthrift, the Waster, the Meier
do-Well of nations. Beginning in
modern times with incomparably rich
natural resources, we have ravaged a
continent of its wood. and coal and
iron, and we smilingly face the ex-
haustion of our bank account in these
things like boy in the midst of his
sowing of wild oats. Our forests are
gone. The scattered fragments left
will disappear in twenty years. The
pinch of exhausting coal fields has
begun; and the best authorities are
computing the time of the end of our
supply, trying to determine whether
it VIII be our children or our grand
children who will have to face flu
ture without coal. We have vast re-
serves of water power, coal, iron and
lands capable Of reclamation and re-
forestation, but we seem to have no
adequate conception of our duties to-
ward them, to ourselves, our country
or posterity. Our soil is being wash
ed away into the rivers, and by them
carried to the sea, and our boosted
fertility of soil is thereby being les
sened year by year, but the irrepar-
able drain is ignored. Our neglect is
almost equal TO our active waste.
The vast potentialities of our water
ways in bearing commerce and in fur
nshing power have been neglected.
But new era seems dawning. Pre-
sident Roosevelt is bringing these
matters into the field of practical
craftsmanship. The Inland Water
ways Commission has been consti-
tuted by him as a great agency for
pointing out these national dangers
and co-ordinating the governmental
plans for conserving our national re-
sources. In constructive statesman
ship, the work outlined rises to the
most exalted plane. 1t demands the
attention of every American. On its
success depends the future. We
must make the most of what is left
of our once great estate; we mus
stop waste, we must keep our natura
resources from the grasp of monopoly
or we may sink to status of com
mercial and national inferiority anC

HER ATTRACTIONS.
By E. Matheson,

She has no dazzling charms, no clas-
sic grace,
Nothing, you think, to win mems
hearts about her;
Yet, looking at her sweet and gentle
face,
| wonder what our lives would be
without her.
She has no wish in the great world
to shine;
For work outside a woman's sphere
no yearning;
But on the alter of homes sacred
shrine
She keeps the fire of pure affcc-
ton burning.
We tell our griefs into her patient
ear;
She whispers "Hopel' when ways
are dark and dreary;
The little children like to have her
near,
And run into her open arms when
weary.
Her step falls lightly by the suffer
ers bed;
Where poverty and care abound
she fingers;
And many weary heart and aching
head
Finds gifts of healing in her tender
fingers.
She holds helping hand to thoss
who fall
Which gently guides them back 10
paths OF duty;
Her kindly eyes, with kindly looks
for all,
See in uncomcliest souls some hid
den beauty.
Her charity would every need en-
brace;
The shy and tmid fear not to ad
dress her;
With loving tact she rightly fills her
place, |'''"

takes the education of these of ten
der years?
The vagrancy question then is not
so much one of criminalogy as of
sociology. There is certainly men
tai unbalance in all cases where in
land of opportunity, and of boundless
resources any individual should be
unable to support himself, and from
choice become a mendicant or
tramp. This of course applies only
to those who are able in a physical
sense to perform some sort of labor.
Those who are untitled for this, have
already been charge upon all civil
lied communities. The very fact that
a man at one time was self support
ing, has little to do with this qucs-
ton. The only question to be de-
termined is, has he the physical abili
ty at the present time, and is he ex-
ercising it? There is no question but
that many men through misfortune
and other causes have got into
mental attitude, whereby all hope
has left them They cease to exert
themselves from the very fact that
they deem it useless to strive. The
life of the mendicant and the trami'
appeals to them. They have so CON
tracted the habit of recklessness and
non-exertion, that it has become in
a manner impossible for them t.
shake it off, There is scarcely one
among them but if given hope, or il
shaken out of the lethergy which has
fastened itself upon them, but would
make a useful citizen. 1t is the boun-
den duty of the state to see that the
proper remedy is applied duty az
clear as it is to exercise its functions
in behalf of theose who are physic
ally unable to be self supporting.
If means of employment at =
wage equal to that commanded by
gainful pursuits of a like character
was supplied, the country would not
only be the gamer to the extent Of
the value of the labor, but by wedding
out those who are criminally inclined.
by determining who could he placed
upon a selfsupporting basis, lessen
crime in its midst.
1t may be urged that there would
be great difficulty in drawing the
line just where this supervision by
the state should be applied. This
discussion was not intended to apply
to those who were temporarily un-
fortunate, and who were willing and
anxious to help themselves. The
discussion is only intended to apply
to those who under the meaning of
the vagrancy laws obtaining in most
of the states, have entered what may
be broadly termed the criminal clas-
ses.
In a broader sense than has yet
been used in this discussion, it may be
said that it is the duty of the state
to supply the means whereby citizen
could gain livelihood. No man
