Richest Womonn In World, RS. E. H. HARRIMAN, widow of the famous rallrond mag- nate, Is the subject of a sketch in the Amerlcan Magazine, BURYJ) wherein she Is rated the richest woman In the world. Concern- Ing her personality and home life, the writer says: Mrs. E. H. Harriman is above average height, very slight of figure, with a charm- Ing expression of face—kind, frank eyes, and a smile that Is far more than a mere Widening of the lips. She belongs to the type of ‘“home women,” and one's first thought of her ia In her own house, before her own fire—in the blg American room of the old house in Arden (a suburb of Nev: York), surrounded by her children and her chiidren's triends. In time, doubtless, the new palace bullt on the mountain top at Arden will become assoclated with Mrs. Harriman (or Mrs. Harriman will become associated with 1t), but the old house—a low, rambling farm house with additions and outbulldings that were added as they were nesded—was far more In keeping with Mrs. Harriman's personality. She Is old-fashioned in her supervision of household and family. She brought her children up In Spartan sim- plicity. They were put on ponles as soon an they could toddle. They were taught all open alr sports and given the freedom of farmers' children. They ran perfectly wild outdoors; In fact, they were brought up exactly as the average well-to-do farm. er's children might be, it they later wers given all the advantages of education, Aslde from the fact of horses Innumer- able and land almost without end, there was no evidence of wealth. They kept open house, with really southern hospital- ity, but it was all done in the simplest " The blg “American room” was the living room at Arden. Everything in It was Amerlcan—wood, frons, glass, rugs, furni ture and skins. There was one plece [n it that came from Honolulu, but Mrs. Harri- man sald that she would not have had it In that room before the annexation of Hawall to the United States. That Mrs. Harriman was the oniy peison in the world supposed to be entirely in Mr. Harriman's confidence is well known. ‘The will conferred upon Mrs. Harriman $149,00¢,000. That o greater master of complicated tinance ke Mr. Harriman should have turned his whole fortune over to his wife seemed to the public a curlous thing. It liad been quite naturally supposed by busi- ness men that the will would dlsclose the property lodged for administration in the hands of trustees. Such guesses, however, were evidently made without adequate knowledge of Mrs. Harriman's qualities, one of which is remarkable personal sim- plicity as contrasted with the extravagance of most New York society women, She im- presses one as being Independent of foot- man and lady's mald alike—naturainess and simplicity are her chief notes. Her chilldren were brought up without ever suspecting that their father was even a moderately rich man. In the house, now, Mrs. Harriman wears white always. Mr. Harriman disliked black. ——, Gesture Gave ler Awnay. “I see your wife is a German,” remarked Brown casually. Robinson lcoked up in surprise. **Why, he said, “how did you guess that? She was born in this country, and has neither a trace of accent or German idiom.’ Brown laughed a little confusedly, re- lates the New York Press. I just guessed it,” he answered. It was—well, maybe it was that I thought she had teutonic fea- tures. Robinson looked first at his wife and then at Brown. ‘“That Is curious,” he sald. “She Is more often taken for a per- son of French extraction. Her people are from the Rhine district, you know, and, as she is dark and slight, very few would think she was German. In the popular mind that type s fair and large.” “Oh," answered Brown, who had by this time recovered his assurance, “I am well acquainted with many types of German, “That is probably how I came to make such an inconsiderate remark.” Mrs. Robingon laughed lightly. “I'm proud of my Germanic origin,” she sald. “But It has never happened before that apy one guegsed it so accurately as you dia.” “Then the conversation drifted to other matters. But Mrs, Brown remembered, and on the way home she said to her hus- band: “How did you guess Mrs. Robinson is German?” Nearly got my foot In it, dldn't 12" sald her husband, throwing out his chest a Jittle. “But it was claver detective work on my pari.

These Institutions are designed to educats the present and rising generations of women to properly discharge their various dutles. In these schools Oriental girls and women are taught what constitutes their real rights.

In Japan the Twentieth Century Woman, a radical monthly magazine, Is edited by a woman and many of her contributors are women:. China has three flourishing publi- cations edited by and for women. In Hindostan is alto a magazine for women. It is printed in English, and, started some two vears ago, it has a large and growing circulation. ses the are . Strike Mania The passion for striking seems to have taken deep root In the female breast within the last few months. - The shirtwalst makers of New York set the example, 9,000 of them striking for better conditions and a lving wage. This was the first time that women had had a strike all to themselves, and it seems to have Inspired other women to do the same. The shirtwaist makers in Philadelphia immediately followed the ex- ample of thelr New York sisters, and, as in the latter city, are relying upon the moral support at least of the prominent soclety women of the city. The last addl- tion to the striking members are the women clgar makers of Cincinnatl. There seems to be some ground for the feeling that the strike Is to become general all over the country. The exhibit of the Consumers’ league in New York, In which was shown the poor prices pald women who make lace and crocheted goods, has not done any- thing to quiet the excitement and the gen- eral revolt against the wages pald women worke! Small Enterprises That Pald. “A Penneylvania girl writes me that she mathered and washed feathers and down for a whole year,' says Anna Steese.Rich- ardson in Woman's Home Companion for February. “The next summer she made it up into pillows, using. attractive ticking and chintz, and sold them to guests at a mountain resort eight miles away She offered the plllows at a trifle less than the prico asked in the city shops, but the appeal to city folk lay in the fact that they were real feather plllows from the country “A girl who lived in New Jersey, within commuting distance of New York, started & hotbed raising fresh lettuce and radishes, These she boldly carried to New York in a sultcase and sold to other people working In the office where she was employed. To- day that girl has a good sized truck farm, employs several hands and does not have to work in a city office. “Away out in Nebraska a farmer's daughter tried to do the same thing, be- lleving that she could induce the green grocers in the nearest town to handle her fresh lettuce and radishes rather than those shipped In by commission merchants, The dealers were afrald to give her any encouragement. Her supply might not be up to the standard. She might not ralise enough to supply them and then they would not know how much to expect from her and Low much from the commission merchants. “The girl made a house-to-hcuse canvass among housewives and offered them freshly plcked vegetables at the same price they had been paying for the hot- house supply shipped in. She was just brave enough not to cut under the prices of the local grocers. Her list of customers grew, She came to town three times a week. The green grocers discovered that she was cutting Into their trade. They capitulated. Today she supplies them all, gends hothouse products to town thres Umes a week in winter, and garden truck every day in summer. “Another girl visiting a meat packing plant was told by the guide of the poor Quality of aprons furnished the butchers. She boldly offered to provide aprons of better material and appealed to the pur- chasing agent and got her chance." Cigaretes and Women, New York women burned $500,00 last year. From today's indications in the bus- Iness world they will burn even more— in fact a great deal more—In the year 1310, Furthermore, the word “burn” is used literally, because these fair New Yorkers actually hold the fuel between thumb and forefinger and set a match to it.

Come from Central park down Fifth ave- nue for a spin and see. First, smuggled among the conservative brownstone man- slons, which once echoed the gontle laugh- ter of the old Knickerbocker aristocra: one comes upon the atelier of a one-time soclal figure now an important modiste. Early New Yorkers would have called it a dressmaker's shop.

Sometimes they come in palrs, these canes, one for clgarettes and one for matches, and especlally smart is a new design just over from Berlin showing the head of the kalser's own proud eagle, sharp beak and gleaming eye, opening at the top to display tiny compartments for small clgarettes and smaller matches. What is the reason for the astonishing increase of the smoking habit among New York women? Simply this: They took it up because It looks “smart,” in much the same way that a small boy takes his first smoke. In much the same way, too, it has grown on them, until now they are wrecking their nerves with nicotine, to say nothing of squandering great sums of money. It is no longer a fad with women, this smoking—a woman must have her after breakfast pull just as much as she must have her breakfast. Sometimes she can get along without the food much more easily than without her clgarette. Thou- sands of women in New York smoke from fifteen to twenty cigarettes a day. Those most alarmed by conditions do not claim that there is anything definitely Im- moral about the habit, but from a hyglenic standpoint it has reached such a stage to- day that physiclans have begun to look upon it as a positive menace to the future of their women patients. In this fact lles the death knell of the habit, in all prob- ability. College Giri'a Quention.

I lived utterly apart from my family and made no effort to understand the lives of my brothers and sisters. The little help I gave at home was done willingly enough, but without interest—a duty to be plished, that was all. I dwell upon this, for I think that this was the effect that col’ege had upon the greater part of my friends. All of us would come back from our various towns with reports of the meagerness of life; all of us were discon- tented with the conditions we found there; all of us had windy ideas about independ- erice and careers. I was among the most tavored of them, I think, In that I had after all an end in view and that my work was destined to make me self-supporting. It gave me at least a profession which is a very great thing, but many girls have left college at 22 no more able to earn a penny than the day on which they entered it—alienate from their home peopls on the one hand, worshiping things of the intellect and with an Inclination to look SUNDAY down upon the men ‘engrossed,’ call it, ‘In money-making.’ “1 do* not say that this happens to all girls.

Whatever else ons may need or desire, one must have that; and the average woman has gradually developed a conviction that it is the early bird that gets the most satisfaction out of the spring tailored suit. It is such solid comfort fresh, lghtweight suit in the first warm days arrive. and furs become all of a sudden burden- some, loathly things. One sighs for spring ralment and regrets that one did not order a spring suit weeks before. Then when the suit does at last come home from the tailor's summer is so close at hand that linens and tussors begin to seem more Interesting than woolens, and unless one is of the lucky clan who spend long summers in cool lands, the suit of serge or homespun or tweed is likely to get little wear before fall. The really canny thing to do is to order one's tallor suit as soon as the New Year and the demands of southward bound folk bring out the new stuffs and a few ten- tative spring models. Of course, one can- not know then just what the last word of spring fashion will be, but one doaun‘kx to have a trig, readiness when Winter clothes need such Information for the tailored sul as one does for frocks and more elaborate costumes. The tallors are always able to make a falr guess at what conservative, sovere modes for the spring trotting sult will demand, and, after all, the more se- vere this first sult is the batter, provided always that its cut is impeccable and its materlal and color modish. There 1s another item in this early order problem which Is worthy of consideration where one must count the dollars. Even the best of the fashionable tatlors {n order to bridge over the gap between winter making and the spring rush, is willing to make substantial conc:ssions In price upon upon orders placed in January or early in February. So order your tailored suit early, madam, but give earnest consideration to your needs before you order it. If you expect to wear it in & warm climate during the summer and will not be able to have linen or silk coat and skirt suits to substitute for it then or trig frocks and dust coats to use for summer traveling, shopping, etc. by all means pass the rough and somewhat heavy woolens by, even though salesmen assure you that they are to be the only wear and insist upon having a lightwelght, fine twill serge or similar material. These materials are always worn in midsummer, even In a rough cloth season, and in hot weather one finds them less oppressive and trying than the wooller weaves, even when the latter are loose woven and light If, however, spring wear is the chief con- sideration or & cool climate s to make homespun and tweed endurable, a slightly rough material is probably the wise cholce this season. The early showing of suitings indicates a strong feeling for light weight and light colgred version of the rough, loose woven stuffs so popular last season, and all the prettiest things so far are in these materials. Smoother, lighter woolens may come along later, but it seems safe to as- sume that the rougher stuffs will be good style throughout the setson. Certainly they are attractive enough to justify continued succe: Many light or comparatively light color- ings are shown, supplylng a welcome change after the unusually somber lines of the winter season, but tight here s a pit- fall ready for many a feminine foot.
