SULKS SEEKS DEFINITION
OF REAL WOMANLY W.OMAN
Must She Run to Cover at the Sight of a MouSe,
or Hai Womanliness Progressed
Further Than That?
TN A DAT of rampant feminism, when women aro thlnklnsr thoughts and doing
A deeds that Hie women of n century or two ago would have been burned at tho
stake for thinking and doing, the cry may bo heard on all sides that women aro no
longer womanly.
Indeed, It Is not nt alt Improbable, according to n pessimistic viewpoint, that
tho most striking examples of womanliness may bo found In certain members of
that sex sometimes known aa the stronger. Only tho other day I heard a man say
ho was afraid ho would havo to relinquish cigarette smoking because it has be
come so frightfully womanly.
But Just what Is tho womanly woman? Has she become so rare as to bo
almost extinct, or has the world's conception of thoso qualities that constitute
womanliness undergone such a metamorphosis that wero such a crealuro to
appear beforo us wo would fall to recognlzo her? I shall reserve my opinion, and
If any of my readers wish to define tho womanly woman, I shalt bo glad to publish
their vlows.
In tho meantime Sir, Laurence Ilousman, tho English author-artist, has
"sized her up." The womanly woman, ho declares, Is Fhe who "seizes every oppor.
tunlty for self-realization and sclf-clovclopment."
That's a definition which ought to plcaso a wholo lot of us who aro sick and
tired of having It Impressed upon us that to retain our claims to feminine charm
wo havo to pretend to n frantic fear nt mice and an equally frantlo admiration
for heroines of the Richardson, Fielding, Dickens type.
"Under modern conditions, nnd through tho cntranco of women Into tho Indus
trial world, sex distinctions havo changed," Mr. Housmnn said recently, "so that
thoro is now no hard and fast lino between the qualities that are malo and thoso
that aro ".'male. All great men, being Imaginative and subtle, havo something of
tho woman about them; and all great women, being Incisive and forceful, partako
of the malo. So that thoro Is Inevitably getting to bo a larger degrco of under
standing between the sexes as to what each Is about.
"Thoso admirable qualities that ono associates with tho term manly havo less
to do with tho possession ot other peoplo and other things than they havo to
do with tho possession of the man by himself; and It Is this samo self-possession
and self-realization, to tho full capacity of her being, that makes a woman really
womanly.
"Womon too submissive aro Ineffective. Milton would havo had tho Ideal
woman eternally submissive, but that Is a denial of her best self. Too protected
and dependent, she becomes at best a crcaturo whoso Ideal Is to llvo rctnoto from
tho world, only to bo displayed now and then on tho arm of a proud nnd posscsslvo
husband.
"That will never do," concluded Mr. Ilousman, "for tho woman of today; that
clinging, undeveloped Ideal Is not a woman, because sho is not womanly. How
can thoso very qualities that aro tho foundation of tho race and tho world and
tho unlvcrso como Into play unless tho woman herself exerts tho Initiative and
tho Independence that havo been given to her along with everything else that
Is human and a11vo7
"That complacent passivity which will allow two men to fight for her pos
session and repair her honor by a duel has become an Insult to the socialized
woman. It Is far bettor for her that sho chooso herself to whom sho shall belong,
and that sho fix tho conditions of her belonging."

I do not think It Is dangerous tor a 17- ear
eld girl to travel anywhere If she Is Rifted
with common sense. If sho Isn't It makes
no difference If she Is 17 or 47. travel can be
precarious.
Safeguard your money and don't trust
strangers. If you are to spend the night In
a strange city reserve your accommodations, or
have your parents do It for ou, at a reputable
stopping placo ahead of time.
Don't ask Questions of strangers! consult of-
fclats. I may bo unusually optimistic, but
think policemen are generally around when
ou want them. Conductors and motormen are
safe. Don't trust strange women any more
than you would strange men.
An expert traveler tells me that the main
traveled route to Alaska Is la Kenttle. You
do not say whero you want to go In Alaska.
From Seattle to Nome, one of the largest
cities In Alaska. Is "COO miles. You go by
boat ami it tnk-n eight das The rost arlcs
from $72 to 1100. From New York or Phila
delphia to Seattle Is 31UO miles It tRkes rive
days to go there and costs 170 first class and
100 second class. The difference between first
and second class travel Is that the passenger
going by the latter classification cannot use
the tourist car (It's virtually only a matter ot
upholstery) or the observation car west of
Chicago. You see. therefore, the distance
from Philadelphia to Name Is SOOo miles: the
time required to coer It at least 1.1 laj, and
the minimum cost I3S Just for travel. I

SOMETIMES A SICK CAT MAY BE

By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.
IT IS ptovcrblal amonsr the rlff-rnft that
a doctor who tries, nnd fails to collect
for services rendered. Is ever afterward
unfit to "doctor a sick cat." Whenever
you henr that verdict rendered, look
around for tho unpaid bill.
Sometimes, nfter all, a sick cat may
bo veil worthy of the closest professional

Helpful Hints From a Housewife
"Here are a few hints that may prove
. helpful to Cornerltes: A colored ribbon
tied to a pair of scissors will save many
minutes that are otherwise spent in look
ing for them when they are half hidden
i under paper or sewing. Place a large
' eponge In the bottom of an umbrella Jar
and it will prevent umbrellas from strik
ing against it and absorb the water that
drips into it. Run a thread around a
hole in a stocking before darning it. On
damp days wipe oft the wlndo.;a with
a clean soft cloth. You will be amazed
to find the dust that has collected on the
panes. A pin stuck in the too ot bot
tles in medicine chests will prevent mis
takes, for, when feeling for a bottle, the
oork with the pin in It means danger!

Boiling Clothes Before Washing:
"I noticed In a recent Issue of the Cor
ner an Inquiry In regard to boiling clothes
before washing them. The answer was:
'Don't do it; It boils the dirt in.' I have
used this method a long time, and find the
reverse true: it boils the dirt out. In
washing this way, as in any other, care
must be taken to put the fine clothes by
themselves:; boll them first. While they
are boiling any that are dirty may be
soaked. I put my clothes in the boiler,
la which has been shaved half a cake of
soap and one teacupful of washing fluid
added to the water, as soon as I have the
tire started. While I am getting break
fast and washing the dishes they begin to
boil. I then remove them, to the washing
machine and put in the next batch always
wetting them first, and, of course, any

Telia of the Sun Dogs
"I wish to emphasize what S. T. O.
says about sun dog's. My dictionary says
sun dog Is a luminous spot sometimes
visible a few degrees from the sun. It Is
believed to be formed by the intersection
of two or more halos My grandfather
lived to be over 30 years old. Aa a small
child I remember well on cold nights see
ing what 1 thought was a double rainbow.
i spoKe aDout it, ami grandfather said:
'No, child; those are sun dogs. They
are bright nnd are like a rainbow, but
are caused by the frost In the air Instead
of the mist or rain." He said they were
a sign of storm the samo as a ring around
the moon. Thirty-sis or seven years ago
this month we had a thunrinramr
followed by a wonderful rainbow; that
meant nt that time a cold spell at least
we had it! My observation has been
that It is moisture or vapor between us
and the sun's rays that causes them all.
You can produce a rainbow with a garden
hose or a sprinkling can. The sun dogs
would be the same were they water In
stead of frost I live right on the banks
of a river with a vapor rising with the
sun. which I think causes lots of sun dogs
The steam from a locomotive hetwn ,!
and the sun on frosty mornings will pro
duce the same. These are my observa
tions for over BO years. There never
was an effect without a cause I have had
to find these out for inquisitive children
and grandchildren. e, jj, -

Evening Ledger this toeek.
The letter printed below, received this
morning, makes one realize what a pity
it Is that such a thing ns so-called com-nanv-kecning
still exists, though so much
t. t.n -lrl nml written against It.
No girl should ever curtail her liberty to
such a degrco that any ono may feel he
has the right to say with whom sho shall
or shall not dance, walk or do any of tho
things which sensible men and women are
privileged to enjoy together.
A girl should bo free to daneo with
whom she pleases when attending a party,
and there can bo no more obvious bad
taste than for another man or woman to
oven flmrcest that a man, even If ho Is
engaged to her, should bo nsked If she
may be allowed to nance wuu unuum.
Of course, one's fiance has a right to de
sire thnt his fiancee does not donfo with
another man, but there nre very few
men who wou d tnko such a foolish stand,
nnd certainly rot In public. One might as
well forbid one's fiancee to speak to an
other man. These practices bespeak tho
provincial In every way nnd should never
have vogue among persons of any kind of
culture
The wholo Idea of company-keeping It
wtong. It mnkes a girl refuse to necept
perfectly legitimate attentions from other
men; nnd If tho so-called company-keeping
lasts for several years nnd then tho
two find that they do not care to enrry
their friendship further, what sort of n
position does tho girl find herself In?
She has refused all Invitations which did
not Include him, sho has not received nny
othor men In her home, she has danced
only with him, walked only with him nnd
has not even had tho name of being be
trothed to him. It Is nil very well for
the mnn ; he can make new friends ensllv,
because ho Is free to seek them nnd to
offer attentions to others, but she has
Inst most of her friends nnd has no way
of going back Into tho things which other
girls of her nge, who arc good friends
with all, are enjoying.
It would certainly be very bad taste,
therefore, Clrnteful, not to dnnco with nny
man who Invites you to, unless you have
personal reasons for not wishing to do so.
nnd It would never do to have the person
who InvlU you to dance consult the mnn
who has fci light you to the party heforc
nsklngyou.
Tho question as to what Is tho proper
thing to say If a man asks If he may tako
you home from a party Is slightly nm
blguous. Certainly If you havo mado no
arrangements to bo taken homo It would
bo gracious to accept his offer. It would
bo perfectly correct alio to say to tho
man, If yot would llkp to have him call,
thnt you weld bo pleased to see him. It
Is probable, however, that he will ask If
he may call on you, nnd In that case you
havo only to answer in the nfllrmntlvo
politely.

of navy curled ostrich feathers. Gold
