Married women in business.


There are thousands OF admittedly suc.
cessful married women in the business
world today says a writer in Golfers;
yet II canvass were made to ascertain
the general opinion concerning the fitness
OF their presence there, the answer in
nine cases out of ten would doubtless be
an emphatic negative too, regardless of
the underlying reasons that govern the
change. Who stops to think that the mar
ried woman's hands are, in a majority OF
cases, either practically empty or filled
with hopeless drudgery from the time her
youngest child enters school?
In an ideal sense a woman has fulfilled
her mission In the world with the rearing
OF her children-but she lives before and
she lives afterward; she has still MANY
years remaining when they no longer re-
quire her full attention. Families are small
Ter than they used to be: household duties
nave changed; the American mans pride
demands luxury, education, idleness for
his womenfolk. We have, then, the woman
OF oapabllity, with her hands empty from
the time she is forty, end there is much
work in the world We have, too, the use
less mother, the meddlesome mother-in.
law, and the overworked father.
Conditions have changed so greatly that
the married woman is almost compelled ia
keep pace with the woman who does moi
marry. or does not leave business upon her
marriage. In one instance the wife goes
daily to her husbands office and fills
capably, the positions of two people--book.
keeper and stenographer. 1t is a temporary
arrangement, but one that made possible
not only the establishment of the business
but the marriage as well. The wife had
previous experience and would have rer
mained in another office while the mar
struggled to make alone the start thai
would enable them to marry. They have
years together instead of years in which
they might have been growing apart; ans
they have happiness OF building the founda-
| tion for future independence together. II
they have not the full delights Of a home
they certainly have an existence for pref
erable to that of a boarding house Later
they will find the way for her ten or fifteer
years OF family duties.
Return to business would necessitate the
wife's keeping thoroughly in touch witt
things even in the years when she would
be away, busied with a multitude of Other
duties; but that intelligent, appreciative
silent partner might not be a bad thing
for the man, and 1t would keep the woman
in peace with her husband, abreast with
the times. She would not be one of tn,

Entertaininw Buyera.

There is a woman in New York whose
occupation is to entertain women buyers
who come into town for houses through
out the country. She has an office, relates
the Sun, and whenever a wholesale dealer
in millinery or dress goods has a woman
buyer on his hands she is called on the
telephone and later is introduced to the
stranger as Mrs. So and So OF our house"
She then takes the buyer in tow, for 1t is
the custom still to show the buyers some
attentions, with the idea OF cementing
their allegiance to the houses with which
they deal.
This woman has a strong complaint
against popular shows. AS entertainer she
defers to the request Of the buyer to see
some one particular show. Naturally this
buyer from out OF town win select one

being amusing. 1t has happened to this
