B. L. T.-Having worked our mas
sive brain on the job three days, we
have discovered the answer you seek
to your question, what suit of clothes
will Emperor Bill put on when Teddy
leaves?" 1t is probable that no one
else will have the nerve to answer, and
rather than disappoint you. we Will

HOW WOULD THEY Do IT?

The wife of a prominent member of
congress is said to be preparing book
corresponding to the Congressional Di-
rectory, which shall contain brief
biographies of the wives of the nation
al lawmakers. In addition to furnish
ing biographical facts, each lady will
be asked to answer this question: eff
thrown on your own resources, what
could you do to earn a living for your
self?"
Just what value this information
will have as related to the wives of
congressman is not clear, unless the
theory is that. as representative wom-
en-. the facts disclosed will give an idea
of the versatility and adapta bility of
American women in general. Viewed
in this light the disclosures will have
an interest. Doubtless in COMPRESSION
al circles are a considerable number of
women who have followed some re-
munerative occupation before mar
rage. For these, of course, the ques-
ton will present no problem. Others
who have had no such experience may
be puzzled to reply, yet many a woman
who would have been equally puzzled
has had to solve the question for her
self in a practical way. To be obliged
to earn her living is a possibility that
confronts such a multitude of women
that it is worth the while of even those
who have no present reason to antici-
pate such a necessity for themselves to
think seriously of it now and then
