Miss Emily Wakeman, the American
actress who in private life is the wife of
Randolph Hartley the author and
dramatist, is the daughter Of Prof. Thad-
deus Burr Wakeman, sociologist, philos-
opher, essayst, educator and for fifty
years a prominent member of the New
York bar
During the civil war Prot wakeman in
association with his brother, Abram Wake
man, postmaster Of New York, had much

from practical affairs to devote himself TO

president of the Liberal club OF New York,
and president OF the Thomas Paine Me-

Miss Wakeman acquired her education
under the direction of her father, and in
herits her keen Intellectual qualities from
him. Her career on the stage covers a
dozen years, and during that period she
has been seen in number of important
New York productions, many OF them the
play OF the late Clyde Fitch. She has Won

Items Of Interest fer the Women Folks

Apart from the crude economic question,
the things that most women mean when
they speak of happiness" that is, love
and children and the little republic OF the
home. depend upon the favor Of men, and
the qualities that win this favor are not in
general those that are most useful for
other purposes. A girl should not be too
Intelligent or too good or too highly differ
entiated In any direction Like a ready made
garment, she should be designed to fit the
average man, says the Atlantic. She
should have Just about as much religion

alton OF this rule, by which the least

most likely 10 have a chance TO transmit

natural law. Though the lady has gener-
ally yielded II unquestiOning obedience.
