o « 4 The Revolationary Woman. HE Amer.can Woman™ {8 (he title of Miss lda M. Tarbell's new historical serial which begins In the November American Maga- zine. 1n speaking of she im- portant part women played in state affairs in the days of 1776, Miss Tar- bell says “Taking them all in ail ary woman grasped fully time, saw fta viston meet its needs. the Revolution- the ideas of her and rose vallantly to She Is a splendid type—a sallart lady from whom It is an henor to have descendgd. But atter all s sald, there 18 no truer test of her character and in. telligence than the way she met the new !deas about her own position and rights Which were born with the Revolution, That upheaval, like the French Revolution, gave ® great impulse toward bigger living. The nation had taken a full breath and felt the stir of It In its voins, Everybody saw Clearer, stepped higher, felt braver and dared more. Women, as men, shared the emotion and began to strain at thelr bonds These bonds were real enough. Noble and understanding as this lady of 76 was in fact and recognized by the men of her day to be, in theory she was anything but that. She was a person of inferior mind, unable to master the strong meat of edu cation without dangerous results to her remson, unfit to be trusted with the guard lanship of her property or her ohildren, lest both suffer, not to be allowed free speech in public lest her tongue run away With her and disorder and false dootrines be encouraged, not to be allowed to mix in the gatherings or deliberations of men lest her household, her manners and publie morals suffer. The greatest men of New England are on the chureh and milfy, charity, record on these points, and the law upheld them. Hu obidence, desty, truth- fulness, godliness—these were the qualities they demanded; and they got them. How weak human nature could dttain these highest of virtues as perfectly as their wives did and still be as weak and untrust- worthy in mind as they theoretically were was never explained. Speaking of two conspicuous women pa- triots who figured during revolutionary times, Miss Tarbell says “I doubt if theré were two men among the patrfots who had a clearer view of the tuation from the start than Mercy Otls Warren and Ablgaill Smith Adams, wife of President John Adams, or whether to- day, with all our higher education and en- larged opportunities, we are able to pro- duce a better type than these two women- Dproducts of the best traditions of thelr day. ‘Both were Massachusetts born—both came from familles of Intelligence and serfous purpose, before they were twenty both had married educated men who were active In the government of Massachusetts and who from the first resisted Great Britain's growing tendencies to exploit the colonies, Nelther Abigail Smith nor Mercy Qtis ever had anything of what we should call schooling. They had been taught at home to read and write and keep accounts, and that was the end of it; but they had access to good books, and they had practiced unlimited letter writ- ing. “The approach of the Revolution found them both women with families, Mrs, War- ren living at Plymouth and Mrs. Adams at Braintree. Famillar with every detall of colonial politics as they were, thelr homes were soon centers of red-hot patriotism. The Adamses and Warvens had been accus. tomed 0 visiting ‘and writing back and forth, and as the troubles grew thelr in- timacy became the closer. Letters flew be- tween them, fliled with suggestions, coun- sel and encouragment. While the corres- pondence was most active In this circle of four, it was not confined to it. Mrs, Warren, particularly, had a large ilst of distinguished correspondents, and with them the exchange of news and opinlon was constant. So helpful did Mr. Adams and Mr. Warren find the letters of their wives that finally the latter suggested that groups bo formed throughout the colonies for similar correspondence. The idea was eagerly seized upon, and was the beglnning of the committee of correspondence, which vlayed so large a part in the Revolution, “Largely because of Mr. Adam's urging, Mrs. Warren became a veritable pam- phleteer in verse. She was, 50 thought .ur, Adams and many of her friends, an incom- parable satirist, und they urged her, for the €00d of the cause to revile the Tory and canonize the patriot. “While Mrs. Warren was pouring out poems, dramas and history, Mrs. Adams was writing to her husband and to her friends, from her troubled home in Brain- tree, volumes of frank, picturesque lefters ‘.A series which furnish the liveliest ketches we have of the life of the Revo- hillonary patriot and his family. “The interest and activity of both women in shaping public opinion did not cease with the Revolution. As long as they lived they were keen critics and valued counselors, Women ux Talkers, As a rule, women unquestionably outrank nin fluency of speech, writes John Barry + Harper's Bazar. In the soclety of women, men may be called the silent sex. But it is when there are no men about that women achleve the most brilllant linguistic feats. They are often tempted to taik all ut once for the very reason that they all have so much to say. Where their conversation shows weekness is In varlety of subject. there 18 little or no says a philosophical women have just one purely® personal.” But As & matter of fac variety. “At presen student of the kind of subject sex, the In the treatment of personalities some women develop genlus. In spite of such apparensly marked limitations, the talk of many women never lacks material. Who has ever seen two or more women dealing with nalities whose subjects of con- versation have become exhausted? Men, in spile of reports to the contrary, indulge considerably in personalities, though their treatment of such themes may differ from women's. But they have other subjects that interest them quite as deeply, and it is here that women fail to meet them. If women wish to remaiu on a conversational footing With thelr husbands they must be- come familiar with matters supposed to be forelgn to the feminine mind, such as busl- { DaBeny PBaney.

But you observe this phenomenon in all lines of work that two people of the same size, strength and ed- ucation differ greatly In the ease and ex- pedition with which they perform the same task. “In the recent contest in Madison Square Garden 1 wrote 6,18 words in an hour, or an average of about 102 words a minute.

This might have been controverted, she said, it the ed- ucation of these girls had been along tech- nical rather than classical lines.

This is the suceinct conclusion reached by Miss Sophronisba P. Breckinridge In the third of her serles of lectures on the ‘Modern Household" at the University of Chicago, reports the Inter Ocean. According to the lecturer women never stop to question whether an advertised arti- cle Is needed or within their financial reach, Instead of spenging a brief minute in think- ing the matter over they use that space of time In getting nearer the goal—the bargaln counte Miss Breckinridge declared that women rush headlong into the crowded aisles of the bargain' centers buylng everything in elght, provided everything in sight is freely advertised.

On the upper Fifth avenue the turbans present a trim and assured ap- pearance which Is THE TIMELY TURBANS assumed to be exactly the right thing In turbans. Occasionally you come across a turban which is quite charming—a swathed mass of black velvet closely embracing a falr baby face with enormous eves, a pa‘en, and floesy, not fluffy, very pale blond hair. The suburban type often strays in, a skimpy, home made affair, obviously afrald of itseif. A thing which adds to the pleasing va- riety of the turban is that it is adjusted at every ‘angle poestble to the human head. It may be seen resting on ihe nose or droop- ing wearlly on the back of the neck, riot- ously cocked over one ear or set math- ematically straight. But all these ways have their drawbacks, because if you wear it pitehed over the eyes you look deprayed, if you let it fall on the meck you look foollsh, If cocked on one side you look flustered, and If perfectly stralght you look prim.
