THE EVENING WORLD, Countess Luetzow Puts a Little | Reason Above a Lot of Ballots ‘dm Her Country, Bohemia, Suffrage Isn’t Talked or Thought Of, but She Thinks Women Who Pay Taxes Might Vote. Yet if a Woman Has a Man to Attend to Her Affairs She Should Let Him: Do It, but She Ought Not Try to Boss Him. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. A little reseon ts better than @ lot of ballots, % That is the theory of the Countess Laetsow, who yesterday arrived in America with her husband, the Count. He wes formerly Chamberlain to the Emperor of Austria, is holder of halt a dosen scholarfly degrees, and a leo- turer on tho culture and ‘history of his native country, Bohemia, His wife 1s a@ @ender, fragile, blueeyed lady who, before her marri; wae Anne, Baron- ees von Bornemai “But really, 1am not @ person of interest,” she protests modestly. ‘It 1s my husband who has the fdeas, who is clever, so clever!” Nevertheless, the ideas in the Luetzow menage are not monopolized by the Count, a# I found out when I talked to bis charming wife yesterday. ‘We bad begun with the suffrage ques- tiem, the conversational cocktall that introduces nearly every interview these days. “No,” Countess Luetzow semilingly admitted, “there is no talk or thought of suffrage in my country of Bohemia. It ts more than what you call a dead tsmue; it le an issue not yet born.” “And you, do you believe tm it?” I aaked. ‘MH i this way,” ehe returned, thoughtfully, “It seems to me that ‘women who own much property ail in thelr own right, and who have neither husband nor father nor brother t for their interests, ought to ha’ votee in the disposition of thi they pay for taxes. “But there are not many such women, And for the great majority, who are ‘happily married or who at least have men-folk in their immediate family— wurely these men can work for the women better than they could work for themselves, Don’t you think so?” Countess Luetzow speaks excellent English, and she has even adopted the London triok of adding a little ques tionjag phrase to her sentence ends, a Phrase, like the French “n’est-ce pas,” Geferential very merely and requiring no answer. She didn’t wait for one now, but I rather insisted on putting in a question, “Do you think the men want to work for the women's interests?’ WOMEN NEED ONLY TO 8E REA- SONABLE. “But wurely!" she exclaimed in sur- prise. “AN good wives tnfluence thelr husbands continually, and all good hus- bande are most ready to meet their wives’ wishes, to work for their happl- news. A woman can do anything with a man if she will just be reasonable. She must not try to force him to obey her commands; no man likes to be ham- mered into doing things. She must just ask for what she wants in a quiet, tem- perate, peaceful, affectionate way. Then her husband gladly listens to her, and 4 ghe has some good motive to advance for granting her request he !s certain not to refuse. It all depends on whether the woman is reasonable or upreasonable. “At least, that is the case with the merriages which I have observed in my own country. The husband seems to do ag much, if not more, for his wife than she does for htm. And even in his own personal work and enterprises he 1s so frequently influenced by her advice.” “But suppose the woman doesn't marry?” I suggested. “But marriage 1s her most natural and happy lite," the Countess affirmed. ‘Don't you think so? It ts what com: pletes her. It 8 wonderfully stimulat- hiss her mind to come into such close t with @ man’s fdeas. His life ts nes ily much broader, and his tdeas fare bound to be different from those of qyen the cleverest woman. Yet no woman can realize the full scope of them except the woman who is his wife, Don't you think #0? ADVANTAGE AND BEAUTIES OF MARRIAGE. “Marriage is @ sort of superlativd fin- tshing school, an all-around develop- ment for the average woman. It tukes her out of herself and into a bigger world than she over dreamed of before. And ibeaides the benefit to her mind, it 1s so wonderful always to have one per- son on whom one may depend. As the years go by, the woman who marry loses her friends by de estrangement or one all those who seemed s0 close to her are gone, Then when she is fitty, sixty, seventy, think of her lonely houral “But I think that marriage le some- thing which grows more a beautiful with hurts and discou and the unton advances nearer of Mentity. And how one loneliness!" "Phen the happlest woman is the wife and mother?" “The happie woman Is wife, As for moth: 1 have no childr that while they a forg they are a treme 1 or certainly a bil dnd sometimes a pointment.”’ "Do you like American women, Count ess?” I asked, as slic paused for a moment, “Bo much!" she smiled. “This is my firet visit to America, but I have met many of your women in London and in other places abroad.
