WOMAN AS SHE
. COMPARES WITH MAN

Woman, as she compares with man,
was the gist of lecture given not
long. ago by well-known professor.
He thus analyzed woman's mental
qualities: "
Sensation-Woman just as sensitive
as men,. r>r .,:, ... ..~-.-- ..''
Perception-very quick; more 80
than men, -: ..,
Memory-The sexes are equal !:
Feeling and emetion-Women differ
materially from men.
Obstinacy and Sympathy-Strongly
developed in women.
Jealousy-Another important quail
| ity of women.
Love-The most important thing in
a woman's life.
incidentally the lecturer referred to
flirting. ri do not believe" he said,
that women are particularly desir-
GUS of flirting first with one man,
then with another. They are simply
! prospecting: just inquirfng into the
| mental condition of different men, to
find which is the type suitable to
| themselves
Married "Old Madds."-The true "old
maid," like the true poet, is born, not
! made, old maidishness being a ques-
! ton of innate character rather than
! Of incidental condition There are old
maids of every state, and age, and
| sex, says Ellen Thorneycroft Fowler
creatures who revel in fuss and fatten
| upon detail, and abide in the narrow
| est of narrow ruts. Do we not all
know married women with large fam
! lilies who are nevertheless old maids
| to the backbone, just as we know
| adorable elderly spinsters who have
| the minds fgirls and the hearts OF
mothers? And do we not also know
| members of the so-cat1ed stronger sex
| whose absorption in trifles and avid
| ity for gossip proclaim them old maids
o fthe purest water?
The Ideal Hostess-She must make
you feel individually that you are tie
! favored guest She must make you
| feel perfectly at home. She must see
| everything, and yet possess the art OF
i seeming to see nothing. She must
! never look bored. She must know how
| to get congenial people together. She
| must know how to keep conversation
I going. She must never let anyone be
slighted or overlooked, especially shy
/ and unimportant guests. She must
| know when to ask the amateur mucic-
| ian to display his or her talents. She
| must. remember that nothing is so
| tiresome-so surely death to all enjoy
rlent-as the feeling that one is be-
| ing entertained. g.

SENSIBLE TALK ON R r
STREET CAR CONDUCT
Courtesy in Men is Good, But There
Are Sacrifices That No Woman
Ought to Expect. & IS
BY CYNTHIA GREY.

Should man give up his seat in a
street car to woman? Yes, and no.
T The man who will selfishly allow his
ailing wife to get up in the morning
and thaw out the water pipes before
he rises, will often give up his seat
in crowded car to a woman who has
nothing else in life to do. but CAD
around bothering her busy friends.
Oh, if he would be a little more
courteous and considerate at home,
and less polite in public.
Courtesy is beautiful at all times
if somewhat rare-but there are sac
rifices no woman ought to ask Or ex-
pect.
Why should the working man, who
has toiled all day in some noisy shop,
or under the broiling sun, and who
completely exhausted, give his seat in
| a car to a woman, unless she is very
old or in i'll health?
Women, young and strong, with
| rosy cheeks and bright eyes, who have
never done a days real work in their
lives, who do not know the meaning
of exhaustion, fight with workers for
| seats at the rush hour, and if they
