At the same time, it can hardly be
claimed that men have been benefited
by being thrown with her in business
relations. Neither has gained anything
commensurate with the losses of each.
Generally speaking, when a woman en-
ters the commercial world she has
stepped beyond her natural sphere, and
has avoided the responsibilities and
obligations which nature and God in
tended she should have. This is not to
be understood applying to some few
women who seem to be fairly we'll fitted
and equipped for business or the pro-
fessions, nor to those who of necessity
must work. How can a woman earning
a wage OF 81 to so a week clothe her
self and otherwise support herself and
thereby improve, the social status of
woman?
Economical side.
Now, a word as to the economical con-
dition that has been brought about by
the entrance OF women into business. Ex-
cept in rare cases, can it he shown that
they have contributed to the total wealth
of this country?
Have they not rather taken the oppor-
tunity away from young men who might
otherwise be earning a living salary and
supporting a wife?
vented their sisters from marrying
worthy men. inasmuch as they have so
lowered salaries in the work they have
been engaged in that young men have
to seek more remunerative employment
or else begin Al the bottom of some
other trade or business?
Work for FrIvolities.
A great majority of women are not
working for a living or for an independ-
ence. So many are working in order to
have more spending money to crafty
their extravagant ideas. Their fathers
are willing to give them. and do give
them. a reasonable amount of spending
money. but they must have more to dress
buy more bonbons. sc.

that she would make him a happy home,

Many people claim that the reason so
many women enter business-ard by

Is il not much more the truth to say

PRIMAL ACROSTIC
OF ADVERTISERS
Is the Subject of the New
Puzzle.

The puzzle for this week is a simple
matter.
1t consists III making a primal acrostic
of twenty-seven business firms recently
advertised in The Washington Herald
The initial letters of these twenty
seven names, reading from top to bot
tom. must form the following sem
tence:
Read The Herald's Ads.
In selecting the twenty-seven firms.
&C, the initial letters of which will make
the desired sentence, the index system
used in directories should be followed
Examples: S. Kann Sons & Co.. and The
Plaza are indexed as:
Kann, s., Sons & Co.
Plaza, The.
As neither K or p appear in the stipu-
lated sentence these names cannot, of
course. be used in the solution.
IL you have followed Herald ads you
will readily see that several combina-
tions of advertisers can be found from
which the acrostic can be formed, so
that it is hardly expected that any one
will succeed in sending list of twenty
seven advertisers agreeing entirely with
the list In my possession.
Expect Everybody 10 Try.
Just the same. il is a simple matter
to prepare a list of advertisers, the
initial letters of which, reading from
top to bottom. will make the stated SEN
tence, and I shall expect to hear from
every member of the Puzzle Circle this
week
The usual prizes are offered-s3 for the
most nearly correct solution that reaches
me by noon on Friday; 81 for the sec
ond, and 81 for the most nearly correct

Rag Carpets.

Each season these quaint, fashioned
floor coverings grow more popular. They
are so attractive-come in such pleasing
colorinss and designs that it is small
wonder women like them. And they are
not expensive either. and not to be de-
spised on account of their wearing quail
tiles.
For summer bedrooms these rag rugs
and carpets are especially pleasing With
white furniture and floors they are very
cool and inviting indeed.

THE NEWEST FANS
ARE EGG SHAPED
Many Unusual Designsof Jap
anese Origin.

"Fan-shaped" may have a variety Of
interpretations this summer, for no
longer are all folding fans made on the
one style, with sticks all of the one
length.
The newest fans, aside from those OF
freak design, are egg-shaped. That Is.
they have central sticks far longer than
those at the sides, the lengths being
graded so that the top is nicely rounded
There Is any number of unusual de-
signs, mainly of Japanese origin, as the
clever little Japs can make the most in
genious contrivances. IT rice paper there
are fans that open up as butterflies or
queer japanese figures.
Spangles In Vogue.
In the more expensive kinds, however,
the spangled fals are enjoying a pro-
nounced vogue. and odd effects are aimed
at by the combinations of vari-colored
spangles and jewels.
There is a sunburst effect that is espe-
cially beautiful In this gold. silver, and
green-tinted spangles are arranged in
rays to form the sunburst on sheer silk
bolting cloth. On the fan with the dis
tinct half-ovaI top cloth OF gold is used
as the foundation, deliberately decorated
with gold beads and gold spangles, giving
very rich effect.

LAUNDRY BAG FOR
THE LITTLE MAID

Conducive to neatness perhaps, and
certainly to be enjoyed by the small
girl as being her very own would be
little laundry bag. in which she might
tuck only her own little '.petties' and
frocks.
Mother or big sister might embroider
one for the small girl, IL she is SO in
clined, using white pique or some other
heavy washable fabric for the bag it
self. 1t should be generous in the size
and big enough to hold all the little
maids belongings.
new idea in laundry bags for chill
dren is to have them stamped with
Teddy bears in various amusing stunts
or children at work or play.
Heavy white cotton cords, which, are
to be procured in the shops, are used
for the draw strings.

A FEW SUGGESTIONS FOR
PRESERVATION OF BEAUTY

Pretty is as pretty does" is an adage
recommended to replace some of the more
romantic phrases from the poets which
grace the dressing table regions of the
summer girl.
A better way of putting the situation
might be, Pretty is as Pretty keeps
doing" and Pretty must keep busy all of
her spare time in order to live up to her
name. Tagging summer days are the
parents of indifference.
Likely to Neglect Self.
The girl at the seashore. in the noun
tains. on the farm, or even the stay-at-
home can't dwell upon ways and means
to keep the beauty she already has as
well as to add to her natural endow-
ments when the mercury is< doing an
aeroplane upward. 1t takes too much
of her time devising ways and means
of keeping cool and amiable.
There are few precautions, however.
that can be followed out without any
undue exertion. Among them may be
mentioned the tepid bath morning and
evening. This invigorates the body,
which in turn keeps the complexion clear
and fresh.
In arranging the days menus. see that
vegetables and fruits play an important
part in the ensemble. Drink milk. but
termilk slightly sweetened. lemonade or
fruit punch. instead of tea and coffee.
! Use talcum powder literally over the
entire body. but be careful to remove It
at night, so that the pores of the skin
can breathe" freely.
Keep Ont OF the sun.
Give the. hair plenty Of fresh air sham
poos.
Keep out OF the heat Of the sun as
much as possible. do not continually ex-
pose the eyes. hair. or skin to the direct
rays.
Have the diet as light and simple as is
consistent With health and strength.
The Washington herald., 1911-08-21

Never overload the stomach. as this may
entirely block digestion, causing a rough,
blotched complexion, and even dangerous
fevers.
Do not allow lassitude to interfere with
hea1thful, strengthening exercises, or
the lure of the hammock to totally
eclipse the benefit of a morning walk
along the beach, over the mountain path,
or through the fields

Fashionable Gloves.

Rivaling the sheer silk and isle thread
gloves this season. many women prefer
wearing gloves Of channels skin or doe
skin. or even the soft veHety-like mocha.
These are all washable and may be had
not only In white. but the modish natural
color as well.
Buttons are the approved fastening
the smart handy covering having one or
two good sized pearl buttons.
And when they are wsshed. II Is well
to remember not to use water that ID too
hot-this viii cause them to shrink con-
sidcrably.
Use iukewarm water and pure white
soap. rinsIng them IN several waters 10

Do you believe that the world is bet
tered financially, morally. or socially,
because of the work of women, who
are engaged in remunerative occupa tons
outside of their homes?
Every reader of The Herald's Page
for Every. Woman is invited to give
an opinion on the subject.
In an article written by Frances L.
Garside and published last Tuesday, it
was stated that nearly half of all the
young women in the country are en-
gagged in gainful work.
Many of these women are married
women. with small children.
with all their independence they are
not making a sacrifice of their homes.
and if there is man who isn't better
cared for now that his daughter. and
sometimes his wife, work for money,
where can he be found? He is better
groomed and better fed than he was
siNty-four years ago. when male proph-
cts predicted that if a woman en-
gagged in a gainful occupation. it would
mean the wreckage of that women's
home" states Miss Garside
Interest in this article has been such
that many letters have come TO me con-
cerning it without any special invitation,
and now that I am asking particularly
1Of opinions upon this vital question, j
shall expect many more.
Readers of The HeraIds Page for
Livery Woman. have standing invita-
tion to express their frank opinions upon
any subject discussed in it. and it is
with pleasure that 7 am giving you the
first letter that came to me upon the
subject of Miss Garside's Tuesday arti-
Gle.
As n Man Secs 1t.
This letter comes from Clifton. Va.
and reads:
/ have been reader Of The Herald
for several years. and have been much
interested in many discussions carried
on therein. An article that appeared
in it Yesterday entitled working wo-
men take care of men," held my atten-
tion. and it is a question which / would
like to see more fully discussed
One of the most important problems
confronting us to-day seems to me to
relate to women entering business.
The two chief results effect us socially
and economically.
To what extent has she effected us So
cialy by her entrance into business?
Has the woman herself been benefited
either in manners or morals?
1t would seem from newspaper reports
and Investigations of one kind and an
other that she has deteriorated to an
alarming extent.
Close contact with men in a business
way has done much to rob woman of
her charm and gentleness.
