Later, in her apartment in a hotel.
Miss IaughlIn went into the subject
with q New York Tribune reporter In
. 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 o blow on the ladys head with
some hard, Llunt instrument.
IF the men insist on delving into
the secrets Of those monolIthic prede-
cessors Of the New York apartment
house. said Miss Laughlin, "then they
must take the consequences and an

pires practically all of the work be-

men talk about mans work I'd Ike TO

Kipling Is one of the few men who
really understand what the relation
ship OF the cave man and the care
woman was. according to Miss Laugh
lin. As proof Of her contention she
cites his "Just So stories. which he
told 70 his 'best beloved" You viii
remember the place where It says:
~The man was Wild too. He was
dreadfully Wild. He didn't even beein
to be tame until he met the woman,
and she told him that she did not Ike
living in his wild ways"
You win remember how It was. She
picked out nice, dry cave (proving.

and she cleaned house properly and
hunk dried wild horse skin across
the opening Of the cave and said:

And The man came IN and lay down
beside the FIRE that the woman had
built and went to sleep.
sBnt Just before he dozed or said
Miss Taughlin. ''he probably threw
