She wears a fem- inine uniform like the men ambu- lance doctors, with a white duck skirt instead of trousers. She has the same navy blue coat with a rea cross on the sleeve and the ambu- lance surgeon’s cap. This leaves almost no profession- al employment exclusively in men’s hands. There are as yet no women judges 17,087, | .NO. the Supreme Court of the United States has let down the bars to allow them to practice before it. There have been women doctors for years and women have almost a monopoly of professional nursing. There are women engineers, women architects, women clergymen and one woman, Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, is the head of a large and wealthy religious denomination. In the stores of this city there are more women clerks than men Clerks. There are more women than men typewriters, and more women than men teachers. There are three times as many women as men dress- makers and milliners. There are still more men tailors and shoemakers. The building trades, especially at outdoor labor which requires strength and exposure to the weath- er, have the least feminine competi- tion. What a contrast to Eve! A long-whiskered and long- haired man is trying to induce women to return to the condition of Eve and to live in a mild climate without any clothing except what nature furnishes. He has secured Some land in Mexico near the trop- ics, where crops grow the year round. There is no frost, no need for fires except to cook with and no use for hot water heat or furnaces. This man has a delusion that he can induce women to go there and lead the simple life, to live on cocoanuts, yams, bananas, pineapples and other spontaneously growing products, to spend their time bringing up children and to form with their husbands a primitive community like that which existed in the Garden of Eden before the serpent appealed to Eve's curiosity. This simple plan wil) not work. If anybody wants to live a simple life he or she need not go to Mex- {co to do it. There are spots on Long Island and the Jersey Coast or the Ramapo Valley where from now until fall anybody can camp oui, wear clothes made of old bags as a concession to stray neighbors and live ‘on garden truck. \ 1 !

But as for women, the big hotels, the theatres, the restaurants, the lGressmakers, the milliners and the tailors are all proof that if this climate {were to be permanently changed so as to be tropical the lack of necessity for clothing might alter the fashions, but it would not diminish the os ok i le ISIE ae ie Letters from the People.

A enment on a subject, which, he sider important, but which 1s actually of vitel interest to all bachelors. How much money, he asks, that js, what proportion of his salary, should a man spend on a young woman to whom ihe iy paying serious attention? He declares this problem to be one On which there ts a vast and Jrrecon- cilable difference and opinion between spender and the girl, Undoubtedly, the suspicion that a man ts stingy will nip a newly sprouted affection in the feminine heart more quickly and thoroughly than any other refrigerating process to which it can be exposed. But on the other hand, the surest proof a man can receive that a woman is begin- ning to look favorably upon his suit is her hinting not to than he can afford. Many men have the mistaken idea that a girl's willingness to accept unlimited attention {s to be taken as encouragement. On the contrary, the fact that, quite without concerning her: to whether or not he has to hang up his board bill for the privilege, she him spend $10 in taking her to the theatre and to supper betrays a total lack of concern for his welfare that augurs {il for lis sult. The man who loves a woman should certainly be willing to spend his money to entertain her. But if she loves him in return, she will not need the accesories of a good play or a restaurant supper to enoy his society. Almost any man fs entertaining enough to sit through a play with or to pay the supper check. After she 1s married to him, however, a woman views him without these allurements, and she should certainly seek opportunities of finding jut just What his own unafded resources of entertainment are before the BI noGa GRELLE! | ceremony. This {s not a categorical answer to the question as to how much the young man should spend on hts sweetheart, to be sure. So much depends on the mane | income that it would be impossible to give any figure that would be generally fair, As much as the girl who knows what his salary {s will let him spend, might he @ good rule for a while, Then if she lets him spend too much, he will know that she {s elther utterly Indifferent to him or so lacking !n consideration and thoughtfulness that she would be a failure as a wife.
