ton. And if the modern man is go
ing to have visions of the good old
days of the cave man he must be con-
sistent and include in his delectable
dream the real cave woman"
Later, in her apartment in hotel,
Miss Laughlin went into the subject
with a New York Tribune reporter in
a manner which showed that she has
given much study to the domestic ar
rangements Of the man and the woman
whose wooing consisted of footrace
and a blow on the lady's head with
some hard, blunt instrument.
eff the men insist on delving into
the secrets of those monOlithic prede-
cessors of the New York apartment
house." said Miss Laughlin, 'then they

swer by what right they can call any
work the work of meA, unless perhaps
1t is hunting and fishing. Back in that
ideal period for which the modern man
pines practically all Of the work be-
1onged to the women. So when our
men talk about mans work. I'd like to
know just what they mean"
Kipling is one of the few men who
really understand what the relation
ship of the cave man and the cave
woman was, according to Miss Laugh
lin. AS proof of her contention she
cites his "Just So" stories, which he
told to his "best beloved" You will
remember the place where it says:
"The man was wild, too. He was
dreadfully wild. He didn't even begin
to be tame until he met the woman,
and she told him that she did not like
living in his wild ways"
You will remember how it was. She
picked out a nice, dry cave (proving,
by the way, that there was a cave
woman before there was cave mani,
and she cleaned house properly and
hung a dried wild horse skin across
the opening of the cave and said;
"Wipe your feet, dear, when you
come in, and now Wen keep house."
And the man came in and lay down

built and went to sleep.
"But just before he dOzed off, said
Miss Laughlin, she probably threw
out his chest and remarked that he
was a cave man himself and believed
that a woman's place was In the
home"
And Miss Laughlin agrees with Mr..
Kipling in the theory that the motive
for keeping house was the protection
of the baby. Long periods without
food, which were bound to be part of
the life Of nOmadic people, were
hard on the young, and that is the
reason the woman decided to keep
house.
'In the beginning, women did all the
work." says Miss Laughlin. ''If we're
going to say that such and such is
the work of one of the sexes we might
as we'll admit that every man in in
dustry is doing work which was orig
finally woman's work.

Napoleon after he had conquered
Venice, took them to Paris to adorn

also prevailed to a great extent on
troopships crossing the Atlantic.
While in general the sanitation Of
the ships was good, the surgeon gem
eral says that overcrowding and lack
Of hospital space, medical personnel
and supplies naturally entailed an
increase in the number OF pneumonia
cases. For troops in the United States
the epidemic ran it's course within
eight weeks, and for each camp the
duration was four weeks. The high
est death rate from the disease in this
country was 6,160 for the week ended
October II, 1918, and in France, 1,451
for the week ended October II. The
disease was much less prevalent and
fatal among troops overseas than
among those in the United States.
During the last four months Of 1918
deaths from influenza and pneumonia
numbered 22.1S6 in the United States
and 8,842 in France, the commands be-
ing Of approximately equal strength.
The reason ascribed Is that troops in
this country were more susceptible
to camp disease than were the more
seasoned troops overseas and the men
in France were living more or less
in the open. The soldiers in France
were of longer service and a large
portion of them had passed the pre-
ceding winter In camps in the United
States. while the men in camps in the
United States were new men, unac-
customed to Army conditions.
