(Tao New York Brening World.) VERY day we hear of the advo- E cacy tn various States of a re- ‘turn to the old blue laws—to bring badk in a strict sense the blue laws as they were conducted in years gone by. The general proposition is to pro- hibit any one from spending Sunday in any other but a so-called religious manner, eliminating all recreation and Sunday relaxatton. As & wise soul has said: “Some- body always wants to take the sun out of Sunday.” AS {8 generally believed, tt is very unlikely that such atatutes will be enacted in any State, in accordance with present-day life. Yot there is something to be wald about the everyday bhue laws, the laws that are made by society every day—taws thet seem more unbreak able than the “laws of the Medes and Persians’—the present attitudes that mitigate against mankind. ‘These aro the blue laws of life. They are enforced unmercifully every day. You can see them, hear thes, feel them—all the time. Such lawe are most unjust and should be elim- inated, even more than the Sunday tue laws, There is the well known case of the girl who errs, who makes a mistake, but who has forever to bear ridicule and “cold ehoulders.” She is made to suffer, while the man in the case go0s scot free, There is the little innocent child who is branded with the term "Il- ‘egitimate.”” How I wish this word could be stricken out everywhere in connection With him. How I wish there were a law that would make @ person gullty of misdemeanor who calls a child “legitimate.” The parents may be Llegittmate Punish them if you will. But by all that is good, why put such a brand on a little innocent human being for which {t must suffer nearly all its life? ‘The man who dewerts his wife and children—there {s very little law that will surely bring him back and make him answerable for such a crime. I would like to eee him court martialled, not unlike a soldier who desertg his army ‘There is the girl who is brought before a Magistrate by a policeman because she has spoken to or ac- costed a man on the street. The man jn the case is never arraigned before the Magismate at the same time as the girl, and there’ is noth- ing to determine what part he played in the matter. ' All the man has to do i to tell the policeman and he gets away, while the girl takes all the consequences. ‘There is the case of the young girl who marries the very old maa—only because of his money, She barters beauty and youth away to get a few more baubles—and always, most al- ways, sorrow follows such a union. These are only a few of the blue laws of life—tiue laws under which people must suffer—in silence most of the time. It 18 up to eociety to change these blue laws by changing its attitude toward them.

To-day women go right on betng doctors, lawyers, merchanta, chiefs! But to Miss Alice Houston, who started to work as « stenographer five years ago and to-day draws a salary in five figures as a Wall Street secretary, the great choice has come, Love has entered her busy life and said; “Pack up your trunk apd come with me. [ cannot stay ip New York. Your business career must end. Come, will you give it up and fly with me?” And Miss Houston has actually said “Yes!” Last summer I had the pleasure of interviewing Miss Houston at her downtown office, Because she is one of the highest paid women tn Wall Street and the seerctary of a large financial advertising agency at No, 7 Hanover Street, J sought her out to give a. few pointers to the young stenographer who {s looking for big- ker things, Thén it was that this enterprising young womgn told me of her first position in her home town In Kansas Just five years ago, her desire to come to New York, her first position in this city and finally her rise from $16 per to that man’s job with a man's salary. As I was about to leave Miss Hous- ton she told me that she was going to take a six weeks’ yacation and go to Wurope for the first time. And it was on this trip while sailing over the bes 214 waves that Cupid appeared. icking up & newspaper just the other day I read: “The engagement has been announced of Miss Alice Houston of New York and Mano L. Luiggi of London and Rome, The wedding will take place in June.” So once more I journeyed to the offices of Mina Houston, Misp Houston's blond head was bent over her work, but when she looked up to greet me there was a dimple in each cheek and her eyes sparkled and danced as brightly and frequently as the solitaire upon her third finger, “Of course you are going right on with your business career,” 1 chal- lenged, after the first congratulations. “I'm not interested in business any more,” smiled Miss Houston, “Brit surely you're not going to give all this up?” I sald, waving my hand to her big rolltop dewk and all that it meant. TWAt is just exactly what I am going to do,” peamed Miss Houston. Then seeing that [ was serious and BY Roy L, <7 MS CaARDELL quiet, polite people,” Mrs. Jarr went on. “Don't you remember how cour- teou# that Japanese roll ball man was when we spent two dollars with him at Atlantic City and won a cup and saucer? He told us we could roll the balls as long as we wanted to.” “Maybe the Japanese are s0 polite because there are no swear words in thelr language,” suggested Mr. Jarr, ‘tAnd maybe there are no swear words in their language be- cause in the Japahese home the hus- band ts absolute master. When friends call, the Japanese wife is not expected to present herself except to humbly bow and may, ‘The hon- oraible tea is served. ” “I don't believe it!” aald Mre, Jarr, "I have seen Japanese women and they dress just like American women, so they must act like them even in thelr own country.
