Now. women arc earning their own

why they should not continue to dress at

practical. The working woman enters the

while I do not mean that the business
woman should dress to attract men. or to
attract attention to herself in any way. es-
pecially TO emphasize her sex, do think
that she should dress so neatly. so appro-
priately, to her own individuality and to
her work, that the thought Of clothes Is
eliminated in her presence Tha. should be
her ideal, think-to eliminate clothes as a
factor in her equation"
Mrs. Mary Ware bennett, secretary of
the National Suffrage Organization, said

sarlly with desire to attract men. 1t is
purely human pride of the individual in
looking his best AT present women ac-
oustomed to following almost any lead,
papers say. But when onco woman gains
economic independence she will achieve an
entirely different point OF view. She will
look at things as a free individual, with an
eye TO her own comfort and needs. Then IN
stinctively. and probably without conscious
effort. she will begin to dress more COM
foTtably and appropriately. and that in
Itself will mean that she will dress more
attractively."

THE HOME MOST IMPORTANT

IL IS just as important as II ever was
for women TO be sweet and attractive and
charming" she declared. why? Because
Il is just as important as il ever was for
them TO make hit with the men and get
nice husbands and have homes of their
own That's a womans life-to have hus-
band and a home. All this stuff about
wanting votes and earning ;heir own living
is just a passing fad which they Will very
soon get tired Of and forget. The maternal
instinct to have children and centre ones
whole life in them and their father is the
greatest thing in the world. Nothing else
can ever be as important. and therefore
anything which leads up TO it is of vital
importance.
Here am I. moderately successful in my
work. and as a result with many privileges
and pleasures in my life which make IT
very delightful. And yet know absolutely
that 1 would give it all up in an instant
without a moments hesitation for the sake
Of stepping into the right sort Of home. l
don't care if the home life is in most cases
smaller and more limited in its interests
and that wife gets cross and tired and
frantic when John is late home TO dinner.
Maybe she knows that he has Just been Sit
llNS AROUND az MS tluD VI HIS
with the passing girls. But when he comes
in he gives her a smacking big kiss. and
says oh, by the way, dearie. I'm all out
of socks; l wish you'd get some mended
for me- and she is uckled TO death to
spend the evening doing that. Maybe their
interests are little. but then so are their
heads Normally women should never grow
up or have any real experience of life: they
should just remain overgrown children all
their days. completely happy in their man
ana their home and absorbed in looking
pretty and feminine and attractive and
doing the nice putte-ing little things about
the house Perhaps people who grow up
entirely have a bigger capacity for enjoy
ing things, but then they have bigger ca
pacity for suffering, too, in the same pro-
portion, and you'll find that the suffering
end of life is the one tha. gets the fullest
exercise.

CARMACK AMENDMENT ATTACK
Carriers Contest Ruling on Liabilit,
for Damages.

washington, April S.--Another attack on
the so-called Carmack amendment TO the
Hepburn rate law, by which initial carriers
OF interstate commerce were made liable
Tor damages to a shipment. even when oc-
Cured on connecting lines. was begun to-
day in the Supreme Court Of the United
States
The point now urged is that the carriers
must have voluntary agreement for
through rates in order to make the initial
carrier liable, and in cases where there is
no such agreement it is said the law would
be confiscatory and unconstitutional.
The present attack is made by the Nor
folk Western Railway Company. II
