WOMAN'S AGE OF REASON. HILE some discuss others act In the pages of an esteemed New York contemporary of late have raged columns of debate over two questions concerning woman—‘Has she a sense of humor?" and “Can she reason?” Argu- ment negative and affirmative has approached the line of invective, and has not infrequently strayed from the boundaries of logic, experience ané com- mon sense. But now, calmly regurdiess of all dispute regarding the qualifications of her sex in general, ariees Lawyer Kate Kane Rowsl, of Chi- cago, to demonstrate that !n her own mental! per- fon at least are comprehended both the sense of humor and the power to reason. Surely nothing could be more deliciously humor- ous in these days of woman's increasing ery for equal opportunities and equal wages than Miss flossi’s plea before a jury that the weaker sex was created to live like the lilfes of the field, toll- ing not nor spinning. And surely nothing could be more logical than her idea that such a plea was exactly the thing to ring effectively upon the minds of twelve careworn men of family to whom the opposite view of woman's rights and wishes had become familiar. Miss Possl's putting of the case worked as he expected. The woman cilent was acquitted of a charge of vagraney. And we doubt not for a moment that she saw the joke ar fully as did her clever lawyer oe . When we come down to facts, all this arguing and theorizing as to the mental equipment of ‘woman may be Iikened, so far as man |s con- cerned, to that sort of exercise known as ‘spar- ring for wind.” The woman who thinks things and says things and does things 's very much with us. She has both fun and reason among her resources. She is more ip evidence every day. Her presence is dis puted only by men whe remember when she ex- isted merely as a rare specimen and who have been caught napping?in the late years’ suddenness | of her rush.
