i BRU ANDEAN] Chovce Furniture IU WOMAN'S NEED Prominent Women Are Inclined \ to Revise Dictum of Chicago \ Co-Eds, Although Agreeing with It in the Main. “ASK THE MEN,” THEY ADD. Mrs. John Sherwood, Miss Edith , Griswold and Miss Roselle Knott \ Agree that Physical Perfection Alone Will Not Go Far. “Would you rather have beauty or drains?" This interesting question, put to all the Co-eds of Chicago University at their annual dinner, was decided by the great majority of the college girls in favor of beauty. “Men,” sald one of them, ‘do not see how a woman can be Intellectual and beautiful atthe same time. They pre- fer beauty to brains.” Hence the young college woman de- elared the possession of a pair of fine eyes and a good complexion to be In- finitely preferable to any treasures of Yearning culled from books. Doubtless the great majority of women, whether in New York, Chicago or Kamschatka, will agree with ner conclusion. Certainly the three notable women interviewed yesterday for The Evening World on this very interesting subject were Inclined to let theie choice, Uke Paris's, go to beauty rather than to wisdom, Mrs, John Sherwood, society leader and litterateur, in town yesteraay tor a few hours from her country piace at Delh!, said in response to a question: “Beauty, wit and charm make up the fascinating woman, and the greatest of Rhese is charm. “It is questionable whether the great- est beauty can exist without intellect. Of course a woman may possess marked regularity of feature and perfect pro- portions and yet be devoid of sprigatil- Bess or inteilect. ut unless there g@hines in her face the beauty of alert Anteliigence, the sweetness of a noble character, her loveliness is not witnout serious flaws. Mime. Kecamier, one of the world’s most famous beauties, was not only noted tor use sweetness of her manners, but also for the vivacity and wit of her conversation. Envied Mme. de Stuel. “She was conceded to be the most ex- Quisitely beautitul woman of the First Empire, yet she was often heard to ex- press a covetous admiration of her friend Mme. de Stael. ‘he famous autkor of ‘Corinne,’ by no means a woman of regular features, had a great desire to be considereg beautiful, and once when asked her idea of perfect bappiness replied, “fo be young, beau- firul and a duchess,’ “Very few of the women who, tradition gays, were the most loved and courted of their timee would be considered beauties judgeé by the popujar stan- ards of to-day, “Cleopatra, small, red-headed and with long, narrow Egyptian features, might not to-day be accepted for the dront row of a Broadway chorus, and Helen of Troy might have to gaze wist- fully from the reer ranks at the top- knot of a show girl from Kalamazoo. “The charm of these women, whose eareers were each marked by the de- @truction of a state, probably did not consist so much in ¢he line of their profile and the fect that twice around their necks measured once around their (waists, as in the graciougness of their manners. The most pleasing thing in man or woman $s a desire to please. If, besides this, a woman posseases regularity of feature and @ well-in- formed mind she is thrice armed, but with charm alone she ts well equippe: Miss Edith Griswold, one of the best known women lawyers of New York, when seen at’ No. 220 Broadway, was in- clined to consider the claims of the purely inteligctual woman more favor- ¢ @bly than did Mrs. Sherwood. Beauty Not Enough. “There was a time, perhaps, when men required only beauty in women,” be said, “but'that time is past. There fs no reason why a beautiful woman should be dull or why the acquisition @f knowledge should injure her ap- pearance. “It is really impossible to say which is prefetable, to be beautiful or intellec- tual. It would be nicer to be both. A pretty woman, even without brains, eertainly makes the best first impres- elon, but unless there is a mind which @radiates her beauty that impression \s gradually lessened. A woman with no great regularity of feature, and whom a@t first sight one is not inclined to con- mder beautiful, if she is intelligent, gaing mith every moment, and the effect she groduces may be more lasting. As to ‘which is more attractive to mep, beauty ee brains, it seems to me men should be @ \led on to decide.” An Actresa’s Views. Stil another woman possessing views on the brains or beauty question was ‘Miss Roselle Knott, an actress, who will Sppeat next scasoh os Mary "Tudor in ‘When Knighthood Was in Xlower, Miss Knott reached New York yeater- @ay from her home in Hamilton, Ont. Bhe said when seen at her hotel: “Which will take a woman further, beauty or brains 7" That depends upon Where she wants to go. On the stage Deauty may take her quickest, but praing will take her furthest. Kew of Ye World's great actresses have been really beautiful women, Beauty may take her indo the front row or make her one of a sextet in a musical comedy, but it will never make her a prima donna or a jeans, jady, As to which men prefer, 1 think they like a little of both, don't vou? It might be a good fdea'to ask some of them, don't you Know 7?" ——_— ———_____.__g & = Se SSS Gy IF YOU KNEW HOW coop 1 LefScha §)." |nitl a would carry none but Oe pitas, Made with Unported “iow aranteed One Y: 2 BARCLAY 8T., eat way,| See SaiC ananan nat We Give ‘S. & H.” Green Trading Stamps.
