.LeapVear,

The London Sketch of Dec. 10 con-
tains in Phrynette's breezy letter of the
weeks doings an amusing account of
sketch by Barrie. given recently at
Sunderland House. The playlet is en-
titled 1.-THE Typist's Mistake" and the
mistake was none other than that of
reversing the parts in the play she was
copying, so that the man utters what
was intended to be the lady's speeches.
while the lady speaks the mans lines.

"Women lave had to do a lot OF
waiting" says Nellie L. McClung in
her book "In Times Like These"
- Long. weary waiting. The well
brought up young lady diligently pre-
pares for marriage-makes dOilieS and
hemstitches linen. gets her blue trunk
ready and-waits. She must not ap-
pear anxious or cOnCerned-nOt at all.
She must just-wait When a young
man comes along and shows her any
attention she may accept it, but If,
after two or three years of it, he sud-
denly leaves her and devOtes himself
to some other girl she must go back
and sit down beside the blue trunk
again and-wait, He has merely eX-
ercised the mans right of choosing.
and when he decides that he does not
want her she has no grounds for com
plant.
''She may see Il young man to whom
she feels attracted. but she must not
show it by even so much as the flicker
of an eyelash Hers is the waiting
part. No more crushing criticism can
be made of a woman than that she Is
anxious to get married. 1t is all right
for her to be paSSively willing. but she
must not be anxious She must wait.
"Why should not women have the
same privilege as men to choose their
mates? Marriage means more to a wo-
man than TO man She brings in a
larger contribution than he; the care
and upbringinS of the children depend
upon her faithfulnesS. not on his. Why
should she not have the privilege of |
choosing?
1.-The time will come. we hope. when |
women will be economically free and |
and spiritually independent |
enough to refuse To have their food |
paid for by men: when women will re-
ceive equal pay for equal work and |
have all avenues of activity open to
them and will be free to choose their |
own mates without shame or indeli- |
cacy and when men will not be afraid |
Of marriage because of the financial |
burden, but free men and free women
will marry for love and together work |
for the sustenance of their families. |

Women are acquiring more and

puff from every imaginable hiding
place and powderinS their faces In

the average woman does not approve,
but she answers that one must pow
der. and in this day of rush and dis
tances she cannot always take time to
freshen up in the proper way.
1t is surprising. considering that the
handkerchief is very often a hiding
place for the powder puff. that some
ingenious woman did not think of this
new continuance before Stitched fiat
on the center of the handkerchief is a
neat pocket-like arrangement. which
acts as a receptacle for the puff. The

puff in itself is odd i'm that it opens
wide enough ut the top to permit a
generous supply of powder to be emp

When one feels the need of powder

which reposes the puff. may be gently
patted against the face. while to all
outward appearances the owner has

likewise if only the handkerchief is
