"Radium-that's what she isl"

"Radium- that's what she is!' b..
So Ida Tarbell has described DR..
Katherine Bement Davis, who, by ap-
York, John Purroy Mitchell, will take
her place as commissioner of chart
ties and correction in the municipal
cabinet of New York city.
She is the first woman to hold so
important an Office in New York, or,
in fact, in any of the eastern states,
and her appointment is regarded
properly as great victory for
feminism.
What is this first woman commits
sioner like?
She is SO years old, of middle size,
with softly silvered hair and wise,
sweet, blue eyes. For IA years she
has been superintendent of the state
reformatory for women at Bedford,
N. Y, an institution less than so miles
from this city, to which incorrigible
girls are committed by the courts. In
these years Miss Davis has brought
about what is practically revolution
in methods of dealing with women
delinqUents, and she has done this by
remembering that while faith has
been preached from the beginning of
the world and charity has been prac-
ticed intermittently during all the
ages, the gospel of hope has been left
chiefly to the patent medicine adver-
tisements.
New York's new commissioner of
correction breaches and practices
hope. There is a motto on the walls
of Bedford reformatory which bids
everyone within its walls forget the
errors of the past and look forward
to the triumphs of the future.
The larger number of women COM
niitted to Miss Davis care during the
last IA years have been committed
for immortality. They are the dregs
of city life, yet she has known how
to reach and hold their BETTER
