For the beautiful women whese only bank balance Is beauty we must bave compassion. Their attractive ness Is their sole legal tender, and they often cultivate It at the expense of tho development of brain and body. The fabled Syrens of old were rep resented as women who lured men upon the rocks of death. And these women spent their time, when no sail was In sight, In efforts to enhance their beauty, to cultivate charms and In planning campaigns. ThlB legend Is founded on a very stern fact women of power who do no usofu) work, who are made exempt from honest effort, either by choice or circumstance, must and will find some way to give expression to their energy, and they use the means at hand. They use the only ones they have been taught to use, or, In a de gree, allowed to become famllla wlth. So, Instead of helping to build Industries, to bless tho world, to help guide the ship of state, many beauti ful women are composing syren songs and playing at life on the fatal rocks, singing their Lorelei where the waves toss at their feet the boncB of their vlctlmed dead. . Beauty as a business Is a bad habit. More than a century ago Mary Wollstonecraft lifted up her voice In a cry of agony for such sacrifice of women and men to cease, and she heYself died a martyr to this cause. Tho remedy she pointed out. And the only remedy known was to make i women economically Independent, to ! give them work, side by side with men, make them equal burden-bear- : era with them politically, physical ly, morally, spiritually free. It was the voice of one heard In the wilderness and her "Rights of Women" shows u world yet untried, but one of which we are dreaming dreams. Our own Susan B. Anthony died with the goal of her life's efforts still In the distance, and the cry upon her lips was the regret that she must go out from this life without seeing the political freedom of her sex woman die without hating done ber part for the enfranchisement of women," were her dying words. Across the sea Mrs. Cobden-San-derson, true daughter of a great man who gave his life to freedom, with a score of other women, has re cently spent four weeks In Jail. And the crime charged against these wom en was that they had asked to have recorded their wishes on certain sub jects In which they were personally Interested, matters that affected them Individually. They simply made the request as men do, and for thi same reason they asked for franchise rights. And these arc noble women who sing no syren songs, whose hearts and lives are consecrated to the cause of the development of the highest and best In humanity. A principal of a large normal school was once speaking of a young and very promising girl. Wo were NEW YORK OH H "K Some of the Things Done Daily in thb Metropolis. A handsome young woman all In white was among the first of the cabin passengers who came down the gangplank of the Cunarder Caronla when she docked Wednes day morning.

Germany has strict laws relative to the numbers displayed by automo biles In order to Identify tho ma chines in case they Injure anybody. According to a recent consular report from Madgeburg, the German courts deal very sternly with the owners of machines which hurt anybody on the road or damage other people's prop erty. These offenders have been com pelled repeatedly to provide for the widows of their victims and ulso for tho support of orphans until tho lat ter aro old enough to support them selves. In consequence of tho heavy penal ties ' attached to such offenses a strange practice has sprung up In Germany. The lnsuranco companies have undertaken not to give the owner of an automobile compensation for Injuries to himself, but to bear his pecuniary loss In case he is obliged to pay damages to his vic tims. ThoBe who take out tho proper policy pay premiums of $15 or $20 annually, and then the Insurance companies agree to assume responsi bility up to 110,000, If they are ever convicted. One would Imagine that a man would feel so easy In his mind when thus Insured that he would become more reckltss than ever on the road, but It Is asserted that serious acci dents are less numerous In Germany than in France or England.

"I mean, of course, fish in nature never die a natural death, not fish In cnptlvlty. And perhaps It should not be called natural death that Bib. In captivity die.

"If fish in their native element were never molested I believe they would never die. If they had suffi cient food, which would be impossi ble If they no longer preyed on one another, there would be no reason for their dying. It was to prevent such uninterrupted tenure of life that all fish were made fiercely pre datory. If not remorselessly canni balistic, as many kinds are.
