GIRL WITH WONDERFUL MEMORY TO MAKE
TEACHING OF INSANE her LIES WORK.

BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. Miss
Elsie Mccormick, u junior I'm the
University OF California here, who
has perfected a system for memoir
izing which has interested college
professors and memory experts
throughout the country, is PLAN
ming to take up the cure Of the
insane as her life work and will

my interest in the work was
first aroused by reading Clifford
Beers "A Mind That Found It
SELF Beers, who was confined
for several years In an institution
fov the insane. explained in detail
the brutal methods of restraint
now generally In use. He also
made clear the ignorance of gen.
eral subjects of insanity. The field
is practically new, for everyone
formerly believed that insanity
was incurable and hence were not
interested In possible treatment.
Now the world is discovering that
mental disease is no more hope
less than physical disease. The
first thing necessary Is to care
fully examine all types of insan-
ity in order to make a standard
lied list. At present nearly every
physician has his own classiflca-
ton; and diagnosis is extremely
difficult. Careful mental and
physical examination of the pa
tients would doubtless verify the
existence of a certain number of
distinct diseases. believe that
in practically every case with the
exception OF paresis and idiocy,
the treatment should be mental
rather than physical.

NEW YORK, Jan. S.-"The,
are not women at all. They be-
long to the third sex. They are
neuters, with the outer appear
ance of femininity, who. through
much exertion, have gradually
sloughed off womanly feelings
and have won in their place a
sort of deformed masculine soul.
1t is all these horrid men-women
who dabbie amateurishly in art
and science and talk so much
about their equality who ruin tho
business for true progress"
This declaration gives the title.
THE Third Sex" to the most dar-
ing novel which has come out OF
Germany in several years and OF
which translation has Just APP
peared in the United States.
1.-THE Third Sex" deals with
women of all sorts. not merely the
imitation men who inspire its
title. The heroine. Claire de
Fries. is beautiful and intelligent.
She is charming without having
to make being charming a profess
sion. In other words she is like
the increasing number of women
in the United States and else
where who can afford not to cap
ftalize their personal attractions
by exchanging love for board,
lodging and q wedding ring.
Contrasting with her Is q pref
ty caressing woman of the old
type. Lilly Won Robiceek. And
1t is from Lilly's lips that we get
the most convincing arraignment
of that order of things which or
dained that woman should make
q living out of her love.
Here is Lilly's protest to the
bewildered man who is trying to
make love to her:
You come here whenever you
like, you attack me with caresses
and when you have kissed me
