DEMAND is FOR AN IDEAL
Woman Writer'S Opinion Of Needed
Changes in the Relations Between
the Sexes.

The usual use of the word "femin-
ine," signifying smallness, sottness.
helplessness, inability, certain kind
of beauty, is deprecated by Mrs. Char
lotte Perkins Gilman These char
acteristics are not essentially femin.
inc, Mrs. Gilman asserts, but have de-
veloped largely through the selection
of women by men. Economic depen-
dence of woman upon man has made
anything but conforming to mans
ideal impossible for her. "The trouble
with women now is that they are too
much females, too little human beings.
A woman should be a competent hui
man being" Mrs. Gilman, in a recent
lecture, spoke of womens ability TO
adjust themselves to whatever ideal
they set up for themselves, as shown
in the different ways of dress and fig
ure which they have taken up. Now
it is the sort of curled-up. slinky,
slouchy figure which we have
achieved. A while ago it was the
tlat-backed Gibson girl. Women
should remember that they cannot
change the female of the species too
much without altering the male.
Why are we SO helpless in the face OF
arbitrary change? Simply because we
have no ideal in our minds. no posi-
tive ideal Of beauty and normality."

The following story is taken not
from French but q German paper,
which printed it MT many weeks ago.
A tourist $50 it runs) found himself in
little village in southern AIsace and
paid visit to the church. The sac
ristan showed him silver mouse upon
the altar. Four hundred years ago a
plague of mice had devastated the
countryside and the good folk had
poured all their silver pieces into the
melting-pot to make that pious offer
ing. Immediately the plague of mice
had vanished from the land.
"And you really believe that story?"
said the tourist to the sacristan.
Not bit of It," replied the fellow.
IF we did belieSe it we'd have put
up a silver Prussian there long ago."

municipalities in the county must
prepare budgets for the year 1915 and

vide the money.

determined the budgets and filed the
list with the County Board.
Bridgeton and Millville have not yet
passed the appropriation ordinances.
