ONDON.-Brains and feminine

ONDON.-Brains and feminine
charm are not irreconcilable.
- This is the firm conviction
of leading British women, who
are aroused at charges made
against the feminists. The plea
that brainy women cannot retain
their charm and that womanli.
ness IL sacrificed when woman
enters public life Is flouted by
leaders OF the woman's movement
in Great Britain.
THE statement that feminists
are not womanly is an old
charge" said Lady Frances Bal
four, land ] had thought that
such an idea had died out. How
absurd the criticism is!
"A peep at any Of our public
platforms where women gather
today would provide the answer
to the statement that feminists
are lacking in attractiveness."
"How can anyone accuse fem
inists of being unwomanly when
their. work is among women and
for women. when they are striv-
ing to better conditions and to
remove the standard of woman
hood all round?" questions Mrs.
George Morgan, president of the
Free Church Women's Council.

"t'eminists are not personally

Beauty in a woman is rather

think that those who make the
allegation do not study our pub
lie women sufficiently.
1.-The answer, I think, lies In the
fact that among feminists we
have a large majority Of women
who are wives and mothers OF
famfiies-mothers OF sons. They
have entered public life, after
their children had grown up In
order that the home might be
specially represented In all spheres
affecting it's welfare"

fled than otherwise by a woman's
work outside the actual home" &C

vice president of the. National
Council of Women. THE finest
housekeepers I know are women
who have taken part in public
work.
ITO say that the word feminist

ridiculous. Women who enter into
public life become far more attrac-

That Is the answer of the fem
inists-now make up your mind

that women really in their hearts

Why IL It?
Men 80 often will even leave
what most of us would call a

their only associates are men.
Can there be anything In the
argument put forth by Almroth
Wright (Sir M. ID. and F. r. 81

Suffrage?" Is II true, as Scho-
penhauer has claimed in his
Essay on Women" that there Is
but one pursuit in life that women
really have any deep heart inter

and for this reason secretly they
all consider the others as COM
