Sex and Muscular Strength.

Two women graduates of Leland
Stanford university, California have
been investigating the comparative
muscular strength of men and women.
They have reached the general con
clusion that any difference that exists
in this matter is not due to sex as
such, but to differences in the use Of
the muscles, brought about by the
conventional limitations of activity or
by dress. Thus wOmen's back muscles
are stronger than mems because their
clothes are largely buttoned In the
back. Certain of their arm muscles
are also stronger, owing to the fact
that they do up their hair, and also
because the heavy coat sleeves of men
limit the freedom Of action Of these
muscles.
On the other hand. the forearm Of
men is better developed than that Of
women, because women wear tight
sleeves and do not custOmarily lift
heavy weights.

Wireless Telephone Nothing to Inven.
tion Some Women Hope to See
Before Many Years.

An inventor announces that he will
soon have on the market wireless
telephone that man can carry
around in his hat. There will be an
other telephone in his home tuned up
with the one inside of his hat. and
the result will be that the mans
wife can talk to him wherever he
may he. whether It be his office, n
street corner, baseball game or a
church.
This is fine thing indeed. and
may really be considered step In
advance. but It is not what the wives
of the world are looking for. The
wives of the world are looking for
something that will beat telephone

We may as well confide to you the
fact that there is wild hope surging
through the hearts of women that
some day there will be invented n
contrivance by means of which they
will be enabled to see the men folks
at all times and wherever they may
be. A man can fool woman with n
hat telephone just as easily as he can
fool her with the telephones we have
now. He can say he Is attending a
meeting of church wardens when he
is really sitting in Il poker game !;
and how is the wife to know any
different?
But when this thing Is invented by
means of which the lady can look
into something like a crystal ball
and see the man person just where
he Is and exactly what he Is doing,
then, dear folks, you may prepare to
see the world turn good.
