eMosT women ten a great many
utterly unnecessary falsehoods
Ind. what is even worse, most women
expect to hear continual untruth They
actually depend upon IL, as child de-
bends on candy. Women are worse Of
lenders than men in this respect" says
Mrs Charles Il. Peck, president OF the
Harlem Study club of New York city.
TITS a queer psychological twist, but
The majority of women would rather
be praised for virtues they have moi
than for those they have. The beauty
begs you to admire her brains, the blue
stocking asks homage for her beauty
and so F7attery and her sister Hypoc.
risy ply their trade and wax strong.
Women wear perfectly hideous
modes Just because they haven't tho
courage to ten each other how ugly
they look.
Another unfortunate effect of this

modate only forty three young women!
Our new home will house from $50 ia
300 girls and will have rooms for tran-
sients
AT present there Is no place In
Brooklyn where a poor young woman
alone can secure lodging for a single
night
Having I'm view the needs of the
younger working girls, a meeting was
held in my home last November, al
which we decided on great campaign
to raise the money.
"The home viii be self supportingl
