FURS APPROVED Spiritual Beauty
 FOR SUMMER BY Coming More Into DAME FASHION Own Says Mrs. Riis

l NEW 1Otth, May l. AS tlIut SoSS on it will be increasingly the spirit. not the pretty face. that attracts and holds men,"
 | Mrs. Mary Riis, widow of Jacob Riis, who died as he had lived, the
 ideal American citizen,' was at her desk in the bond office of Bonbright & Co.,, where she is the head of the wo- mans department. She had been ask ed. How should women earn their living?"
 The most encouraging thing about women is that they endure-they per sist,' said Mrs. Riis. Only Limit Is Physical She believes there is nothing or very little that woman can not do. The only limit is physical, since they are not strong enough for certain kinds of work. But even this may be over come, in time, Mrs. Riis thinks, by healthy living and exercise. She, herself is a slight figure of a woman. at once nervous and firmly poised, dominated by large dark eyes, DT1gnt WlIn Nllas eEeTSA. Men Choose Pretty Faces.
 Sooner or later physical beauty will not be the only quality by which . woman is judged" she repeated. At present men think first of looks. They think that is what they want, because they have never been trained to love the spiritual and gentle and simple just as a materialistic young girls ideal is at present a football hero.
 For myself, l pick my workers Dy their faces, too-but by the spiritual quality that must inevitably shine through. The woman who thinks more of her clothes and her general appear ance than she does of the life of the soul, who would spend an hour poxder- ing her nose, and only 10 minutes on a business problem, is the woman who would be sent politely from my door"
 Something for Everyone. X woman is limited only as a --an is limited, according to Mrs. Riis. o--nv are good at financial work, some at painting pictures, some at keeping tea  ticular talent in the particular wo- man.
 The problem of a woman left des- titute in middle age, perhaps with children to care for. was put up to Mrs. Riis.
 "!.et her look obout her. There $ something in the world for everyone. was her reply. The ways of making living are simply astounding. l know one woman who has made d great success of painting beads; an other who dyes feathers; still anoth- CT who found her salvation in her oN n imagination. She makes up fairy stories and tells them to school chil- dren; she goes to the best houses as an entertainer. There are as many ways of earning a living as there are | people"
 All Need Discipline In speaking of the untrained wo- man, Mrs. Riis emphasized her belief in discipline She believes there is al- ways a way for anyone with real ani. . ' llOH, WHelHeT JTdlHtu UT uhtIdllieu, but that every woman will be better off training of some sort. 'I believe in discipline" she said. There's no sense in the theory that discipline hurts natural talents. And not only is it nonsense in the business world, but in the home it is invariably the disciplined woman who makes the best mother"
 Sane Balance Coming.
 That women's heads are turned with any degree of permanency by their en. trance into activities hitherto consid- cred fit only for men. Mrs. Riis 6oes not admit.
 You see, business and the success ful carrying on of it's work is so new to women." she explained, that she has become a little inflated by her new activities, but that will wear off with the passing of the years.
