AMIABLE STUPIDITY IN WIFE
Once Clever Woman Was Doomed to
ceIibacy Unless Clever Enough to
Act the Part of Fool.

Some years ago a smart London
magazine invited so prominent men Of
the day to declare their taste in wom-
en- and particularly whether they pre-
ferred clever or stupid wives.
And the 80 masculine nabobs, lit.
erary, artistic, legal, commercial,
rushed eagerly into print on this most
delicate subject.
FOrty-two Of them, comments a Los
Angeles newspaper woman, pro.
nounced in favor of amiable stupidity,
especially in wives. Seven of them
one was Max 0'Rell-balked the Ques.
ton and found charms on both sides
And only one declared that he honest
ly preferred a clever woman, provided
she did not think she was clevereI
than he was.
And what happened? 1t just shows
the cussedness of the sex. Instead Of
promptly cultivating amiable imbecil
ity and thus making the supply equa
to the demand every last female
among them decided that she would b.
clever from henceforward. No com
mercial instinct, you see!
And for a year or two things came
to such pass that clever womai
was foredoomed to celibacy from thu
outset unless she was clever enough
to act the fool. From the marriag,
records one reasonably concludes tina
a good many Of them acted the fool.
But now? Why there never wa
such demand for clever women. No
only are they considered absolutel,
necessary in the various professions Il
which intelligence is at high premi
um, but men even want to MARI,
them!

YANKEE GIRL DOESN'T FIT
Austrian Critic Declares No Formula
Can Define Young Lady
From America.

Alice Schalek, Viennese traveller
and writer, has provided the Vossiche
Zeitung of Berlin with a description
OF the manner wherein American
women on tour differ from all others.
The fact IS" she says, you cannot
class them (American women); they
won't fit into any accepted formula.
You can tell a Frenchwoman I'M
mediately, and be dead sure she's no
prude, but light-hearted firt. II you
meet an English woman you must wait
to make her acquaintance until she
drops her typical English reserve.
"A German woman wants to be ask
ed about her husband and his profess
sion, titles and their babies. An Aus.
trian woman will be smart and a
good fellow. But If you meet a
woman who won't fit any of these cat.
egories and doesn't correspond to any
particular type, you can be dead sure
she Is an American.
There is a 17-year-old whose IA
Their, mother and elder sister are
along, travelling in cabins de luxe.
She fiirts day and night on deck, and
all so naturally that she retains her
social position in circumstances no
other nationality could survive. What
has it got to do with your she seems
to ask, and there's an end of it.
Here are some pictures from my
gallery of American girls abroad, just
to show their differences, A girl who
petted white rats and snakes in Kyoto;
a young Y. W. c. A. apostle in Corea,
who was as pious as the day is long,
but who flirted to her hearts content
with a young English missionary; an
energetic middle-aged American fe-
male, who was missionary for some
obscure Partisan reincarnation Of
Buddha.
There were other less pleasant
pictures, but each sticks in my mind
with an individuality which no Euro
pean woman ever achieved. Yet per
haps there is one feature common to
all these Americans-each of them
cherished some eccentricity, but,
whatever it was, she carried it out
with unwavering determination.
81 believe we can learn much from
these American women"
