Te defeat a party choice the inde- pendent must Sbdtain five per cent. of the party's total enrollment in hia dls. trot, which must equal four per cent. of the total vote cast for Governor at the last election in the same district. ‘There is the alternative of writing in an opponent's name on the primary ballot, but this phase of the law is not seriously regarded. The Progressives and other organiza- \ong who have favored direct nom- inations of candklates find themselves in the position of going to the polls and ratifying @ slate of candidates who were selected by the Hapgood Committes, Under the Fusion auspices Repub- Democrats have the same privilege they have always been acoorded—vot- ing for the Tammany nominees picked by Charles F.

There is, first, the peculiar nexlessness of the American woman, which lasts up to the age of thirty, anyhow. Then there fa t dewliam of the American man—bis chivalry to women.” Once more I had to call upon Mr, Johnson to help my unbelief, at you call chivalry in man,” I ed, “has always seemed to me fear—a cold-blooded counting of the cost to him followed by the decision that it Is too much or el seriou Preoccupation with another woman. other words, if you want to find the reason for a man's restraint toward the salamander—cherchex l'autre femme (Find the OTHER woman), “All of those things may enter imto it, of course,” Mr, Johnson conceded, “but American men really have ® genuine idealism to- ward young girls. Besides they are more interested im the sala- mander type than in the woman who does not elude them. A man is soo bored by the adventuress type of womans, The American man takes @ woman as she wants to be taken. “It I were @ Prenchinan I might feel the same incredulity of salamanders which you are unflattering enough to express about your own sex.” ut {am not unflattering to my own * I protested. 4 think, on the con- , that you flatter yours.”* Don't you know," Mr, Johnson replied, “that men always admire women for what they don’t find in| them? That is why a beautiful woman cannot hold a man’s interes: very long. “The women who ini oes 8 ™man permanently is the woman who appeals to his brain. Very Deautiful women seldom have Drains, A man asks himself al- ‘s about the woman who fasci- him, ‘What ts th about her that interests me? So long as he cannot answer he continues to be interested.

Also we have the experience of every young man since that time as confirmatory evidence, In! tures without being scorched. From eighteen to twenty-five ehe wilt dare anything—bdut alwaye she re- sists temptation.” Perhaps you have met this young lady as she is presented by Owen Johnson, who is one of the most serious and sincere of younger American novelists, the author of Second,” and most recently of “The Salamander,” which is now appear ing serlally in MoClure’s Magasine, If you have encountered the sala mander, the omnipresent type of young American girl, who takes all the privileges and appears to pay none of the penalties of the emo- tional free lance, you have specu. anders. Mr. Owen Johneon does, and, Tt was just here I made up my mind that homely women must adore Mr. Owen Johneon at least when he talks to them like that. For I have never yet known a homely woman who had Rot Persuaded herself that Cleopatra owed her fascinations to the charms of the intellect alone (I think it was the emall, stuttering Charles Lamb who when asked to give his idea of Shakes- peare replied that he had always thought of him as “a a! -m-all m-m-m-an with-th an imp-p-p-pped-iment in his epeech.) However,I prefer to think of Cleopatra as a woman of utter, aching beauty, but with the infinite variety that only a quick silver quality of the mind bestows. EASY FOR A WOMAN TO IM- PRES A MAN. “The women who have influenced men for any length of time have always had tntelligence,” Mr. Johnson con- tinued, “or at any rate they have man- aged to convey that Impression to men. But a woman can always persuade a man of her brilliancy merely by listen. ing to him sympathetically.” “Of course that's true, but of course that's different,” I answered. "Did you eee that marvellously true definition by Owen Hatteras this month, ‘Cleverness, in women meana any mental atate superior to imbecility.’ * “That 18 good,” Mr. Johnson agreed. “Some of the world's greatest men have been perfectly happy with women of very small mental calibre, but they Were always persuaded that the women jhad brains, It ts the brains of the |salamancer type that interest the man ; about town,” Mr. Johnaon continued.
