Reddish brown hair, that doudti¢ss had been sombed into some resemblance to the prevailing fashion of he pompadour, had fallen into # natural part on the right side and lightly swept a brow not too high, but white and thoughtful.

The quota- | tion is given to run with the declaration made as | of fact, at the week’s meeting of the Portia Club, by Dean Clarence D. Ashley, of the New York Uni- versity. “My experience,” said the Dean, “is that the Aaintiest women are the cleverest.” i He had such answer for any who still hold “the antiquated notion, not yet entirely extinct’ that when- ever women are awfully clever “they look like sin.” And he continued thus: Women at thy bar to-day are all that {s meant by good lawyers, They are the peers of many prominent lawyers. Nor doves this achievement tend to destroy their feminine charms. Bah for the man who thinks that knowledge makes @ woman misculine: Are men concelted enough to think they can mako women like themselves? * % te * Of course it is the American woman who is under * fi, tonsideration.

If the actor had thought of it, he would have mentioned particularly the -ighf to be as Canty and feminine as she can. A privilege, this, which is so pressing as to amount toa duty. And it does not rest alone on the clever women of the bar. Dowdiness never was a real hall-mnark of feminine talent. To-day it stands for neglect and arouses unchivalrous thoughts. It is the most ungrateful attribute of the “new woman” at law, at medicine, at music, at painting, at any business or profession, when she allows it to “fake the shine off” from her newness. * * It has been averred that the “new woman” likes * lls America “* Jeverlasting bands of matrimony? {declared must bound the legitimate hort | By Al ay ver rrr w THE # EVENING # WORLD'S # the Bachelors’ Fi The G Kingdom ?!; ——— By Nixola Greeley-Smith.
