But some of tho men that I know to
'Whom I recounted thla Incident failed to
t wrpreda the surprise I expected of them.

i eowiment of one of them, "Swearing's In

s There aro some things to which one
t Mnnot retrograde.
H But It will bo a great pity If the pendu
4 turn of this emancipated femininity Is nl
Jlowed to swing too far. Because wo no
' longer have, to faint and cling and reduce
Ij, .our gray matter to tho proportion of a
lf'ioosa'B In order to assert our femininity,
X there Is no sane reason, by tho bame

trlnk and swear to assert our what?
"Vl almost- wrote "masculinity." Hut
1 What are we trying to assert, anyway?
True, tho Status of, woman has changed
and Is Btllf changing. Women aro no
longer Under the dominance of man. Of
that thero can be no denial. Some saS'
this has been the result of her own efforts;
others smile cynically and say that
woman Is no longer what sho was because
man, havl.ig tiled of that type, allowed
her to "evolve." This Is a mattor of
opinion. Hut let the responsibility for
changed womanhood rest on whoso head
It mas, why should we assert anything? '
It has been charged, and perhaps Jus
tifiably, that thq majority of women who
smoke, drink and swear do so because It
Is "smnrt" for them to do It, because they
want to register their Indifference to
masculine opinion runt atticism, not be
cause they really enjoy ulcoliol, tobacco
or profanity. Primarily It Is this fact
which makes those Indulgences harmful
to women,
Hut a swearing woman Is analogous to
a man who uses perfume. Masculinity
may Include swearing Just ns femininity
Include perfume, but emancipation
doesn't necossailly lncludo masculinity.
Of course mornlly nnd ethically there Is
no greater harm wrought by a man's pro
fanity than by a woman's. Hut, after nil,
two wrongs don't make one right.
If wo must copy men a wise woman,
however, knows that sho mustn't let
Us ape tholr good qualities. Theic arc
plenty of edifying attributes that aro pe
culiarly masculine.
Say what you will, men are not so catty
ns women. All his life Diogenes looked
for nn honest man. I have met many
types of women women In all walks of
llfo and though I have looked for one
who had nothing of cnttlncss In her
make-up, I have not yet succeeded In
finding one. Wo may be out-and-out cats,
making no attempt to conceal our claws,'
or wo may draw them Into our fur subtly
and dangerously. It makes no difference.
Wo are n race cursed with a virulent
"fellnlty," of which wo evidence no desire
to cure ourselves. If It can bo cured.
Let us not, then, imitate the bad habits
of men. Let us rather copy the good
traits that seem peculiarly theirs ex
tinction bf cattlness first of nil.

It may be very ennobling for a woman to lo

money to xay for a aervant hn the rtuht to
aay whether or not ahe w&nta to do It. And In
jemploylng"" her help ahe ought not to have to pay
bandit's wages In order to get a good servant.
The baslneaa man doesn't think that he ought
to do his work. lie employs a stenogrupher. u
bookkeeper, a salesman, a truck driver or who
ever It la he wants, and If he doesn't get tho
kind of man or woman he wanta he fires until
he does.
The housewife, should have the same privi
lege. There Is too much sentiment In the rela
tions between maid aprt mistress ruth-- than
too little. In championing the mnlds I think
you havo overlooked tho side of the mlstresnrs.
Bt'IUNCl QAIIOUN STIUJUT,
Ypu aro right In some of your conten
tions I might say In those which coin
cide with my views published on Tues
day and Saturday last. But let mc nsk
you, does the business man try to get n
romlijor' $3 or $4 or oven $5 a week, plus
hls board and room who Is capablo of
'dflvl&g his truck, taking his dictation, keep
.'"KJuS'sy'ooks and soiling his goods? He
does not.', Ho wouldn't want such a man
lt"hecJurd get him, he'd bo afraid ho wasn't
"hurrtaii". I
Certainly a housewife should have the
prlvlcgcs of firing her "help" whenever It
pleases her, only It's a sad but true com
mentary on the average housewife's meth
ods that the "help" doesn't usually wait
to be fired. She Jumps. Hence the weep
ing and walling and gnashing of teeth by
the mistresses.
If you hire an untrained servant at 5B
a week and give her her board and lodg
ing, your system Is wrong. She should be
trained In some of tho branches of domes
ticity, at any rate for this price. But this
should not preclude her from human treat
ment by any means. Take a snulnt at tho
subject again and see If you don't think the
housewives are chiefly to blame.
Dear M'llss Will sou please tell me how 'to

THIS BUSY LAWYER WAS TOO BUSY

By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D,
HE HAD an excellent family history nnd
generally the best of health. He had a
,fo6d practice. Dut of late he was troubled
considerably by dyspepsia, for which, being
a lawyer and therefore competent to treat
himself though he wouldn't defend him
self If he were sued for conspiracy he tried
one remedy after another and sampled vari
ous Impressive styles of treatment, Jn fact,
he did about everything but consult a
doctor,

kind of short-winded recently now that he
t waa reminded of It. Also nls eyedlght wasn't

"7 The hcrt sounds were louder than nor

GOOD FORM
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Case for Glandular Therapy
A girl, aged 5, appears tho slzo and men
tal equal of a child of two years. She has
had rickets for two years. She eats heartily
and sleeps much of the time. But she
doesn't grow, mentally or physically. Can
you suggest anything to do for her?
Answer Yes. Ask your doctor If he
thinks of a course of treatment with thymus
gland extract Isn't worth while. A six
weeks' trial of It would not do any harm,
at least, If tho doctor could see her regu
larly each week.
Specialism Running Wild
Catarrhal deafness for several years In
left year led me to consult an ear specialist
last December. He removed some adenoid
tissue In the throat or back of nose, and
treated me for months with Instruments for
inflating the Eustachian tubes. I later grew
deaf In the right ear. And all the treatment
seems to leave me as bad off as ever. Some
times I wonder If diet, clothing, etc.. have
anything to do with my trouble, or If cli
mate would offer any help for me.
Answer All these things your family
doctor might have advised, since the spe
cialist failed to do so. Send us a stamped
envelope,
Good form queries should lie ad

This column mill npn-car la Monday's,
W'ednesdav's and Friday's Evening
Ledger this week.
A correspondent nsks whether It docs not
occur to me, as It has to her, that there is
something to say about the manners of
the grown-ups who are teaching tho chil
dren. Several times lately I have spoken
In this column of the bad manners of chil
dren and how they should bo corrected.
One cannot expect a child to bo polite if
one Is rude In Its presence The woman
who gossips about others before a child
Can scarcely exact from that child a sllenco
In regard to what It .sees others doing
Gossip Is so Ill-bred, and yet thcro Is a
tendency toward It In every human being
Tiny children start to tepeat things they
have heard nnd said, and so It goes.
It should be remembered that children
who are not taught and obl'ged to bo polito
to their elders and to one another will not
suddenly becomo well bred before strangers.
Yes. tho manners of children depend largely
on the good mauliors of tho elders. 1 qulto
agree with A It. M. who asks tho question.

"Disguising" Lights
Nothing Is qulto so unattractive as an
ugly wall fixture. And, by the samo token,
nothing so adds to tho charm of a room,
nnd Incidentally to tho charm of the room's
occupant, as a cosy, rose-shaded light.
Xo matter how baro and "friendless"
looking the hall bedroom may bo a tiny
rose-colored light will throw a glamour
over It, making It seem positively artistic.
These shades take various colors and aro
not of course, all rose-colored,
Pnrchment shades are smart. These are
fashioned liko half-moons and aro made to
slip over the ugly fixture In boudoir, den,
library or sitting room Artistic designs In
dull tans, gold, greens blues and browns nro
temlnlscent of tho thirteenth century parch
ment Illumination.
A boudoir shade may bo had In rose, old
blue, yellow or green silk. It Is shnped
like a wide-open basket, with frills of gold
lace, puffings, ruffles and French flowers
galore. The hoop handlo serves to attach
It to tho fixture, for when it Is hung over
the light the basket forms tho shade.

Various Queries
Dear Deborah fusi Is It considered In good
form to wear whits shoes on the street In winter
or at this time of year'' Da ou think gloves
should always be worn? Are men expected to
wear dress clothes to small, Informal dances
at this time of year? t JOHN.
White shoes for tho winter and at this time
of ear are not to be considered strictly In good
form. These things are largely u question of
personal taste, however.
A lady alwas wears gloves In the street.
There Is tao time or seuson when they may be
dispensed with.
No Many men go to Informal affairs now In
dinner roats. nnd very often It Is permissible to
wear the regulation striet ault. When the
weather grows warmer many men wear white
flannel trousers and dark .oats
