quietly encouraged the establishment of an

The railroads and Miss Oould have con
tributed about half the coxt of the struc

of the different localities have given the
remainder. During the last six years Miss
Oould has donated twenty-tight libraries

talking machines, collections of stereos

all that concerned the welfare of railroad
employes had such a decided Influence that
the secretaries of the associations urged her
to visit their organizations.
Tha Kerr Woman of Sixty Plus.
The new woman of 60 is now a fixed fea
ture of city life. Sho la welcomed, more
over. She wears the same style of hats
that her daughters do and her Interests are
correspondingly youthful.
There may have been a certain tenderness
In the former woman of 60 In her lace and
violet bonnet, which la larking In her suc
csor with her Napoleonic beaver turned
back defiantly frotn her brow. But as a
change from conditions that existed for
merly, the new woman of 60 adds much to
the beauty of out-of-door life, even If she
may not bring the same grace and gentle.

holiday season wandering through tha
shops with her daughter of 20 or less, the
two dressed with so little difference In de
tail that they might be sisters. The de
butante of IS by the side of her mother
of 38 seems very much like her. When
twelve years more have made that maiden
a matron and her mother a grandmother
there will still be little difference between
them In looks.
"Now that we have accepted the new
woman of 60," said an amateur sociologist
quoted by tho New York Sun, "we have to
accept also the newer woman In tho next
stage of her development. She Is well, tho
woman, over 60. Say that she hua reached
the 60s or passed beyond them. Is she an
agreeable substitute for her predecessor?
How many white-haired, unnmlablo look
ing women one sees nowadays, covered
with feathers and furbelows and wearlnjr
clothes that are much too young for them.
I see them fighting their way Into theaters,
elbowing themselves through the crowds in
tha Fifth avenue shops and calling harshly
In rasping voices to girls In tho stores.
Are these women the results of the new
women of 50?"
This critic's views may be extreme, but
It Is a fact that elderly women are seen
In public much more than they used to be.
Nothing seems to daunt them now.
They Jump In and out of crowded trolley
can with a pretense of youthful alacrity,
and they aparkle with gems at the opera
the new woman of SO plus. She may be
poor and yet affect the same Jauntlness
that the Fifth avenue dressmakers try to
provide for their customers who are over 60
years young.
"It may be an Improvement to have old
women looking so much younger," the
sociologist continued, "but I have observed
that they try to substitute for certain rec.
ognlzed charms of age what poorly re
places the original gentleneas, tendomesa
and contentment where are they In tho
hew women of more than 60?
"It may be that the ability to wear a
black Jet hat with three ostrich feathers
on the aide waa not possessed In former
years by women who had long passed Into
the grandmother clus. But those earlier
grandmothers had some other traits not
possessed by their successors, and they
were the qualities that made old age, rest
ful and lovable and, above all, revered."

of her dress "Tho woman who wears good
clothes." says Mrs. McCulloch, "and ruMles

any man she chooses. Mrs. Chadwick did
what a shabby-genteel woman could not
have done."
"Of course, this abuse of power does not
militate against the wearing of good
clothes." comments the Chicago Chronicle.
"It only shows the power of dress and Its
psychological effect. The woman who la

' But let no woman think that loud, ob
trusive clothes fill the bill. Theae betray
the parvenu, the would-be aristocrat who
has not yet "arrived." The successful
woman knows Just how far to have her
clothes Impressive without overshadowing
her personality. They are her aids, her
subordinate, not her superiors. They ex
press what she wishes expressed and ar
reticent when she wishes to keep silence.
"Mrs. Chadwick understood to perfection

with a clear mind In a sound body, reads
without ghisses and has no notion of stop

How to Get Rid of Him.
Here are some of the rules Edmund Ttu
sell once read to the Eclectic club on "How
to Get Rid of a Lover":
Step often on his feet.
Move your hands a little every time he
opens his mouth. It will make him nervous.
Always ridicule men he admires.
Let him aee you conversing with superior
men while he sits bored and unnoticed In
the background.
Do not move when he attempts to em
brace you.
Should he offer a caress turn a little
aside.
Aak him to love you when he is tired.
Never laugh when he laughs.
If both should happen to laugh at the
same time show that you are not laughing
at what he Is laughing.
When he wants to tell you a story Inter
rupt him with another one that has nothing
to do with the one he Is about to tell you.
Find fault with all plans he makes for
your pleasure.
Ask him continually for things he cannot
give you.
Housewives Work Too Hard.
"I hold that that class of women In
America (the hard-working housewives)
Is not only hard-worked, but Is far too
much over-worked." writes Emll Reich in
Success. "The number of house-servants
in the United States Is not half so large
as that In little England. This entails on
enormous amount of household work to be
done by untold thousands of American
housewives. I know It; I havo seen it for
years. In factories. In public libraries, In
poatofflces, and other stata offices, In pri
vate offices, and In the infinite number of
schools, American women are working very
hard, frequently to the detriment of their
constitutions. But herein la found the
great difficulty In summing up correctly
the btate of women in a given country.
The hard-worked, the over-worked womwn
are of the tame type and class all the
world over. They do not constitute- the
distinctive type of womanhood of a coun
try. We must estimate them, not by what
they are actually doing, but by what they
are aiming at. The very American house
wife whose husband has heretofore been
unable to give her sufficient "help" will,
as soon as her husband Is financially suc
cessful, turn out a type -totally different
from what she has been. It is this ever
present tendency toward the distinctive
American woman-type, even in the lowliest
of American housewives, that constitutes
the essential feature In American woman
hood. As in Kngland there Is no bour
geoisie proper, not bfcauee there are no
middle-class families, of which, indeed,
there Is no lack, but because In every
KngllBh middle-class family there are an
ever-present desire and a restless ambi
tion to get socially out of that middle
class; even so there Is in America no real
bourgeoisie woman, owing to he unmistak
able, Inerudicable tendency In evtry Ameri
can woman to reuch tho type of that
American woman whom my critic think
they cun restrict to a limited number with
worldly Inclinations."
Here Is an Ideal Iloase,
Lecturing in Philadelphia, Dr. Robert
Ellis Thompson described the city home of
the future. He said it would contain no
stoves. Cooking will be done by power,
the building will be healed from a central
plant, elevators will run from cellar to
garret, and breakfast, lunch and dinner
will be supplied from co-operative centers.
The era of scientific cooking on the co
operative plan haa been inaugurated In
Bergen, Norway., where for nearly a gen
eration cooking haa been banished from
the home, and all receive their meals from
co-operative centers.
Not only will the house of the future
be cleaned by power, but the dust will
be removed oy a pneumatic rxhauat sys
tem. Streets will be cleaned In like man
ner, and the dust and dirt will ta carried
away Into the country, so that country peo
ple may yet vlt.lt the cltlea for a breath of
fresh air.
Woiaea 'Agree Sot to Kiss.
A little red button worn by some S00
women, old and young, married and Indif
ferent, amnop the leading social sets of the
f'lty of Mexico marks a new departure,
or rallirr m div ateu in diu.cii. This lit
tle, round, red button signifies membership I
In what Is known as the Antl-Klsstng
league. Members of the league take solemn
pledge not to kiss each other. In public or
private, but put It on the ground that
kissing is ' contagious, or. rather, the
means of conveying contagious diseases
from one fair Up to another.
There Is nothing visible to the naked eye
In the constitution of this league against
kissing other than members of the female
persuasion, and In fact the practice, aside
from the supposed danger of Infection, Is
decidedly, to the male aenre, not only de
plorable, but unnecessary. When one
woman takes two or three minutes of time
in a street car to kiss three or four other
women before alighting from the car she
certainly violates the golden rule of mak
ing all those passengers wait. How far
this new. league will conduct Its offensive
and defensive campaign remains to be seen.

There Is a variation of tho two-stone ring,
In which two diamonds or contrasting

stiff under side obviates the necessity of
wearing an under collar, and In the cuffs

A pretty fancy for the woman who likes
something different In gloves are those with
narrow gauntlet cuffs, embroidered with
steel beads. They are to be found on both
black and white gloves, the black being
stitched with white and the white with
black. The gauntlets are regularly turned
down over the cuff of the gown or reversed,
turned back over the hand. They are but
little more than an Inch wide and the em

It Is said that tho beautiful Mexican

who manage the business are very great.
It la estimated that the buyer pays $40 for

No man has ever succeeded In keeping

In politics fuctions speak louder than

Every blush isn't the genuine pink of

People who say mean things don't al

It may be that a woman stoops to folly

exhilarating, vitalizing, purtfylne. Yet
It is a germicide so certain that we puh
llsh on every bottle an offer of
for a disease genu that it cannot kill.
The" reason Is that germs are vegetable;
and Llquozone like an excess of oxygen
- Is deadly to. vegetal matter.
There lies the great value of Llquo
zone. It Is the only way known to kill
germs in the tody without killing the
tissues, too. Any drug that kills germs
Is a poison, and it cannot be taken in
ternally. Every physician knows that
medicine In almost helpless In any
germ disease.
Germ Diseases
These are the known germ diseases.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to help Nature overcome
tho germs, and such results are Indi
rect and uncertain. Llquozone attacks
the germs wherever they are. And
when the germs which cause a disease
are destroyed, the disease must end, and
forever. That is Inevitable.
