It herewith pre sents the story of Miss Kathrync Haun, treaurcr and member of the board of di rectors of E. F, Houghton d Co., a million dollar corporation manufacturing oils and leathers used in the industries. Miss Haun, entered the employ of the firm as a clerk at a nominal salary. Today she is said to be the highest-paid business woman in Philadelphia. Her associates in business and in the financial world pronounce her the "best business man" in the concern. She became the financier of the company in name (though she had long done this work), during the last illness of the late president of the concern, Aaron C. Carpen ter, when she took entire charge of the finances of the company. The late Mr. Carpenter, for years before his death, would sign no papers except those presented by her, and tduring his last illness would au thorize nothing unless Miss Haun "O. K.'d" it. The general accounting department of the company, of whose system she is the sole devtsci has bein repeatedly com mended by expert accountants, and Miss Haun is looked upon as one of the keenest minds engaged in financing Philadelphia's millions of industrially invested capital. A member of th$ firm remarks: "Ao one has ever exerted any push or pull on be half of Miss Haun, for, as far back as any of us can remember, she was always at the head, pulling the rest of us along." -How she "got there" Miss Haun tells for herself to the toomen readers of the Eve ning Ledger. By KATHRYNE M. HAUN Ar THE start I must confess that this xa.settlng down of the llfo and tho seml lmpresslonlstlo maxims ot a business wom an appeals to me. Figures havo been my medium of expression much moro than written words. But, after all, a message Is a message, no matter how sent, and this ono Is ad dressed to the women who think man's commercial achievements are beyond their reach. It Is meant to read: "Tho only lim itations to a woman's accomplishments aro her ambitions." To be?? at the beginning lt Is necessary to go to f.e end or rather, the climax which Is that in ordinary, everyday woman Is the treasurer of a million-dollar cor poration. How It all came about seems like a dream, but, let me tell you, there Isn't much dreaming can be done while directing the finances and accounting of a concern that handles moro than $10,000,000 worth of business a year. Let's go back a bit say, almost twenty years. One day a young girl (which was I) went after a Job, without the slightest busi ness knowledge or ideas. Sho was armed only with the thought that some day she would realize her aspirations, which were, however, not very clearly defined. She didn't stop to consider whether the Working environments" would be pleasant or whether the men she would associate would be polished men. plain men, or crude mem, and the last thought that entered her mind was the wages she would receive at tho start. She wanted only the start. She got that start with E. F. Houghton & Co at a stipend as small as the smallest now paid any girl in that company's em ploy. She tried to work hard and faithfully, and one day the late president of the com pany, Aaron E. Carpenter, selected her to be his special clerk. He afterward told her that lt was because he had noticed that In stead of doing fancy work and reading novels In her spare time, of which there was much In those days. Bhe had developed a curiosity regarding tho details of book keeping. "DRIFTS" INTO CASHIERSHIP The business grew, and the bookkeeping had to be separated from the cashier's work,' and she Just drifted into the posi tion -of caBhler. Then, somehow, no one seems to know exactly, she Just went on ward and upward until the entire account ing department was at her command. From there lt waB only a step, even though a big one, to master that most dlfllcult and Intri cate and all-Important factor In every business, the finances. There you have, In brief, the business history of Miss Kathryne Haun to date. No doubt the principles of success evolved from this practical outline will be more helpful nnd mora Interesting than the chronological story. . Much has been. said about tho equality of women as compared with men In com mercial life, but It requires no such long experience as I have had to appreciate that, generally speaking, women are com merolally inferior to men. That Is not be cause they are Inferior mentally; not be cause they are not naturally fitted for com merclal life I but because, as a rule, women lack that all essential qualification which men possess ambition. LACK OF AMBITION The ambition of every young man who enters the employ of 0 large corporation, If he la made of the proper tlrnber, is a seat In the board of, director. The ambition of the average young DIRECTOR OP WflWTSTOiBHa. . v A YOUNG WOMAN WITH' AMBITION Haun's Success Reveals woman I give It up, for lt nas been my duty to engage hundreds of young women starting out, nnd so utterly Impotslble Is It for me to comprehend what their real object In life Is that I havo long ago stopped guessing. But I will venture tho opinion that I never yet engaged a young woman who hoped to become a member of our board of directors, nnd I am suro that most of our young men actually hope somo day to be president of the company. . Of course, one pays the price of success. Just so long as women continue to be a sex of bargain hunters they will not cut much flguro In business. PLEASURE BEFORE BUSINESS The woman who Is hurrying through her business duties In order to keep an engage ment; whose mind Is upon the dress sho Is going to wear at some particular function; whose head actually becomes dizzy nt the privilege of standing on tho side-lines of society and applauding, will be about ns succe . 1 In business as the man who plays the stock market nnd calls his broker up on the telephone every half hour while the market Is open. So few women appreciate that It Is not their mere presence In the office that makes for success; that It Is not the regularity with which the time clock Is punched that brings advancement, but clear-headedness, thorough thought and concentration upon and lovo of work. The woman for whom tho working hours nre too long will never climb up. It Is the woman who regrets the shortness of the day that masters business. No one ever enjoyed parties or wanted the fun, excitement and association of young folks more than I, but tho question I In variably asked myself when an Invitation pr ntcd Itself was, "What are my duties fo ho next day?" Cno must learn to say "no" to the entic ing cocktail, the additional glass of wine and the extra helping? of food If one would have a clear head In ir morning. Above every thing else, "sun dodging" is no part of the program of a successful business woman. There Is no short cut to business Buccess as there Is success upon the stage. Tho successful business man may be "angel" for a stage beauty, but If he Is a business man, he keeps his angels on the stage, where he can at least limit the losses from their de ficiencies. Out of the most dlfllcult as well as one of the most amusing features of my busi ness career has been the the slowness with which most men comprehend that I am actually treasurer of the company, an olllcer and member of tho board of directors no many men nave no greater compre- hcnslon of the luijiiuuiiies or women In JllMIIIWIIIIIIHIIIIlim Distinctive Models in Millinery-Dresses-Coats Refined conceptions that show the touch of expert workmanship.

As a rule, most of tho men with whom I havo Important business Immediately con clude that they must go higher up to cloho a transaction. When they are finally re ferred back to me their apologies are pro fuso and tholr humiliation more or less amusing But ns it is nil a part of the game, I diplomatically Ignore the matter. One of the greatest dlfllculties I have had to contend with Is tho natural antipathy of men to taking orders from a woman. I havo seen men who bully and bluster nnd "refuse to take orders from a woman" sneak home with their pay envelopes, hand them over to "Dear Friend Wives." and ac tually fear to ask for tho prlco of a Clneo. Just as the right sort of wife Is tho boss of her husband, within her proper sphere, without being offensive and mostly without tho husband being aware of tho fact, so can an Intelligent business woman by the uso ot a llttlo diplomacy overcome male prejudice ngainst women "bosses" In busi ness.

Ah sho walked she vas humming some dainty Jnpaneso air, cluslo, et with a vaguo hint of sadness. Hut O-Chlqua-San was not unhappy most decidedly not. For did not the golden sun shine warmly down on her, and the deep blue sky smile ten derly, nnd had she not on her ery prettiest kimono, nnd was she not going to tea with her very dearest friend, Yuwa Klota? So lt was not to bo wondered that tho light came and went In tho soft brown eyes, nnd the wild roso color flushed her checks. And lt was no wonder that Lieutenant Yotsua, home for tho first time In eight years from service, rubbed his cjes and looked again, belle, lng that lt was Just a fairy vision that came dancing tow aid him. As his shadow tell across the path, ty-Chtqtia-Snn looked up startled, and seeing the lieuten ant's gray eyes looking whimsically nt her. stammered, "Wh what wish oU, .soldier?"

O-Chlqua-San sun eyed lt all tircafhlcssly from tho eranda of her fathcr'i house, and thought longingly of her bthool days Just ended and the dreary monotony of the life thnt was to come. Her father sat there be side her, silent, as was bis rustftm, and sho stolo a half-fearful glance nt his stern features. Just now he had told her of the man sho was to marry In a month .1 man whom she had neer seen nnd never would sco till the wedding Itcbolllous nnd angry, she had demurred, but there had been no relenting; lt was her father's right to com mand her thus, and to that lneltable power she must mutely bow her head Onre phe would not hae cared, but now It was dif ferent; for had she not learned, In the many golden days spent In her father's garden, to oe the joung lieutenant and to dream happy thoughts of tho tlmo after the great )ar should cud? O-Chtnun-San felt the bitter sobs rising In her throat and turned In sudden nnger toward her father. Hut how could she explain? What was there to explain? What did her father know of that curious thing that the English teachers had told her was loe? How could he understand, ho who always Mioued the greatest respect and deference toward her mother, but never ten derness? Through the ngue shadows a tiny spark, like a firefly, glowing steadily. It was the lieutenant's cigar, nnd somehow the light seemed to enter Into her lory heart and comfort Its weary throbbing. Lieutenant Yotsua was going away, and O-Chlqua-San was going too. Far. far away In that foreign country of America they could find happiness together. Let the army claim him as a deserter: let the people brand her ns an unbeliever; but there under the blue skies and In the green flowery meadows loe awaited them nnd claimed them for her own.

Tho little girl was plavlng in the yard and the cistern floor was uncovered. She went to the hole and shouted Into it.
