WOMEN SHOULD NOT
LOSE THEIR TEMPERS

From the Philadelphia Star.
Women who are polite in practically all
other places sometimes are positively
rude at card tables. It would perhaps
help them to be self-controlled and civil
when the game is going against them TO
remember that. after all, It Is only a
game. and though they lose. their defeat
is only temporary. II II Is impossible for
woman to remember that bridge and
other games OF cards are pastimes, then
she should not play. for she makes her
self unpopular and those about her I'M
comfortable.
However Indifferent one may be IN rACt,
when one is losing-and few persons are
as interested when the cards are against
them-it is a matter OF good breeding to
pretend as much enjoyment as when sue
cess IS on her side II is not polite to be
snappy and dull just because one IS los
ing. Such conduct makes the winning
couple extremely uncomfortable.
Courtesy. at all times desirable, at cards
should be regarded as imperative. To
comment unfavorably upon the playing Of
q hand is the height OF ill-manners and
need not be excused on the ground OF in
structlng the ignorant A woman who
might sincerely wish to play better
game does not care TO be criticised and
drilled in public. and the one giving infor-
nation is a self-appointed teacher who Is
not desired.

BLACK IN HOUSEFURNISHINGS
From the Phiiadelphia Star.

From the Phiiadelphia Star.
hghtness OF color, with a distinctive
touch OF black, should be the effect
aimed for in furnishing all houses this
spring. Brown and gray. with hardly
more than a thread OF black. may be
called the newest combination. but in
many cases black Is eliminated. AS an
example OF this fad. some curtains be

the edge down the sides and across the
bottom IS band Of black velvet ribbon
two inches wide The draperies have
valance, which is treated in the same
manner.
White dimity draperies or other thin
materials, frilled and tied back with
black velvet ribbon, are charming and
add greatly to the artistic effect Of q
room done in yellow or green.
Decorators still show a preference for
materials and wall papers that match.
But inexperienced housekeepers cannot
be too careful in employing this treat
ment. either for living or bed rooms II
is a characteristic of all such patterns
that they are bold and striking, and
only a place that is large can be so an
ished without confusing the eye. A plain
wall and bold materials are better for
any room less than twenty feet long and
twelve or fifteen wide.

but even in those places design is not
necessary. What is required is perfect
position of the boards-that is, close to-

the entire year is fitted with hardwood

HEART AND HOME TALKS
"A Man S World. ="

In the play "A Mans World" which
two women represent two distinct types
OF womankind to-day. the one who wants
to make the world a happier place for
woman 20 live IN. the other who shgugs
her shoulders and says. What's the
use?.
II has been a mans world. Man has
made the laws, largely IN his own inter
est. He has set the moral standards.
with a certain leniency for himself
That which woman has had she has been
given as a privilege or as a courtesy
to her sex. rather than as a right. The
woman who shrugs her shoulders and
says, What's the use?' maintains that
these conditions always have prevailed,
always viii prevail and that IT'S useless
to try TO change them. You are up
against stone wall, she says. and
you only hurt yourself by trying 10
break 1t down.
But the other will not admit the truth
OF such arguments. And she is In the
right, for II women will glance back 30
or 100 years they Will see that some
breaches have been made In the wall. II
takes long perspective 20 see Just what
has been done. But a long look back
ward like this shows an advance and
gives hope and encouragement TO con-
unue the fight.
The fight Is worth while despite those
who say, What's the use?" The wrong
taken up particularly In this play. the
double standard OF morality, is worth
rightins The world will be a happier
place for such reform and men viii be
stronger and finer when there Is but one
standard OF right and wrong for men
and women alike.
The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1910-05-28

Woman does not want a womans
world. Experience has taught her that
a one-sided arrangement no matter IN
whose favor It may be. is not only I'M
Just but binders progress and SYM
metrical developments. She wants a
mans and a woman's world where each
is eCually free TO work out his individu-
allty and where right and wrong Is
question by itself and not dependent
upon sex
A little question that the taking Of
the present census has brought up
shows that woman is a force to-day
that she wasn't fifty years ago. No
doubt then women resented housekeep-
ing being Chased as NO occupation"
But If they voiced their protest. II was
individually and It was either laughed at
by husbands and brothers or simply ig
nored. But to-day through clubs and
other associations, they have voiced a
united and indignant protest and backed
1t up with such sound arguments that
men have had 10 listen. and by the time
another census is taken this classical
ton Will no doubt be changed.
But this IS only one Of the breaches
In the wall mat IS being RACED about
mans world. opening fl into woman's
and making a fair domain Of both.
Women instead OF hfndering or remain
ing merely negative should lend a hand
They are not losing anything and they
are gaining much. Their self respect
should not want as a favor what is
theirs by right OF being an individual
While there is discrimination in wages
In lasys. In morals. the world Is not so
happy place for women as when there
is standard Of what is right for the
individual irrespective OF sex. The
sooner IL Is a mans and A WOman's
world. the better II Will be FOR both

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
FROM WOMANS
POINT OF VIEW.

Discuss the subject as much as we may.
we are confronted with the fact that the
preference is given 10 life in apartment
houses. 1t may not be the most wholesome
life In the world, but il offers the ease
which distinctly appeals TO women. Men
are given 10 Striking home duties-why
should women be expected TO have a
strong liking for them?
AS have said before. there is much 10
be said in favor Of easy housekeeping.
II Is given 10 the few to be women of
leisure. Perhaps they do not have enough
to claim their attention, possibly they
are bored with existence, but they are a
very small proportion OF the feminine
world. The average woman is right busy
and finds the day all too short There
are thousands OF women who are taking
care OF large houses and thousands more
in apartments who have numerous IN
terests In addition TO home-malling Some
OF these make their own clothes and trim
hats. arc good musicians. and have lit
erary tastes.
IL IS not waste OF time 10 read good
things. Trash should be avoided for more
than the reason OF time wasted 1 can
see no reason why a woman should find
time hanging heavy on her hands-she
can always so outdoors and find com
partnership, or have Il al home by the
simple process OF invitation. The woman
with family has no time TO get uneasy
and no inclination, generally speaking
but the wife who does not see her hus-
band between the first and last meals
OF the day is the woman who is likely
70 have too much leisure. I have known
such women 10 go without food at noon
rather than take the trouble to prepare
a meal and eat It alone. II such women
would get together and plan 70 have
luncheon at different homes each day.
and eat It with the sauce OF companion
ship. they would be better off IN many
ways.
! do not blame any woman for pre-
ferring 20 have nothing 20 do with the
heating arrangement Of homes-it IS not
womans work TO handle heavy shovels
and pokers. and even strong men dislike
the work. This IS one reason why heated
apartments find favor. A warm kitchen
with an up-to-da'e gas range is a JOY
which we thoroughly appreciate. 7, who
am an advocate Of the detached houses.
have to pay tribute 70 such an arrange
ment, as well as 10 the elimination OF
ashes and other waste which are con-
fded 70 the care OF janitors in apart
ment houses. do not like the annoyances
of too intimate neighbors or the re-
suictions regarding the lighting OF halls
where there is janitor service. but one

THE LABOR PLANK.

The labor plank in the proposed
Republican platform again favois an
employers liability act and the cX-
emption from trustee process Of The
wages of laborers to the amount of
$40. This portion of the platform Of
1908 was ignored by the Legislature
of that year
1t seems to the .Iournal thai both
these policies of employers liability
and wage exemption to the amount of
$40 are right and reasonable. With the
vast increase of machinery in nearly
every field of labor, the risks assumed
by the workman have largely increas-
ed. The justice OF protecting the la
borer from injury has been recog-
nized generally. The present YER
mont law is based on the ancient COM
mon law of England, and the English
! law long ago was modified in this re-
spect. Our own laws give less pro-
lection to the laborer than those of
most of the States of the Union. With
the development of industrial life in
Vermont it is right that our own stat
utes should represent the intelligent
standard of fairness recognized in
other commonwealth.
The goods and cnattels OF debtor
exempt from attachment and execu-
ton according to the laws of Yer
mont are: Such suitable apparel
bedding tools, arms and articles OF
household furniture, as may be nee
essary for sustaining life; one sew
ing machine, kept for use; one COW
not exceeding in value 800; the best
swine or the meat of one swine J..

nor in value 500, and one years pro-
duct of such sheep in wool, yarn or
cloth; forage sufficient for keeping

select, through one winter; ten cords

Speakers of National Repute.

Although the program for the State
Health Officers school to be held in
this city in August has not yet been
mapped out, DR.. Holton, Secretary of
the State Board of Health, has al
ready made arrangements for secur-
ing several speakers of national re-
pute, some of whom were heard with
Keen interest last year. Everything
points to one of the most successful
conventions yet held so far as speak
ers are concerned and the arrange
ments to be completed during the
next month will ensure plenty of in
struction for the delegates from the
Vermont towns while the entertain
ment end will be looked after by
Montpelier. DR.. Holton has already
conferred with Health Officer Will
liam Linsay, M. D., of this city.
