Just it few days ago I read it criticism In n newspaper which amused me very much. It was about myself, mid de plored the fact that an article I had written on "How to He Pretty" should be accompanied b n photograph of my self clothed In a fur coat with n hat covered covered with aigrettes. The writer of the notice seemed to think I was personally responsible for the slaughter of the birds on my hat and the killing f the animals whose fur made up my coat. As 1 have already said to you, It Is my business to bo pretty, to look ns well as possible; that is part of my stock In trade, you may not think it when you look at these fluffy pictures 'of n girl always dressed In the latest and newest of frocks, always the dernlrr cri ot fashion, but Claby Deslys N n hard working person. To bo wH ilressed nt all tlnies Is a task In Itself. I loatho being photographed, but when 1 ntu on the stage It Is my business to look as well,, as possible beautiful. If you say so. Now. as to the hat and coat. I wear them because people admire them. Personally I think ostrich feathers quite as pretty as aigrettes and I much nrofer them but the popular taste ot the mom'ont demands aigrettes, which means the slaugntering or many mil lions of lovely birds. And who, pray, dictates the popular taste? Men, not women, 1 can assuro you. No woman goes out and hunts birds by the million .simply for her own adorn ment. No woman goes out anil hunts and traps animals. And, last of all. it 1 men nnd not nnmon who set the fashions and who keep the taste In clothes at an artificial and unnatural point, where we admire the plumes of slaughtered birds and the fur nf dead animals and buy them to adorn ourselves. The minute men stop admiring thcf,o things and don't look at the woman who wears them, they will no longer be worn, nut becauso one lunesomo writer or a small Boclety of people disapprove, that doesn't mean much. llefote one can stop the slaughter of tbe alKrette and other birds for mil llncry purposes ono must stop the deslro In man to hunt and kill In well stocked preserves where unfortunate and nearly tamed animals are bred, ror tne Killing I was Invited during the shooting sea son to visit some friends who had a beautiful chateau and wonderful forest preserves. Great excitement prevailed because of the deer hunt, at which many famous people but I am glad to say no women, only men were asked to shoot the deer which had been bred foi the purpose of being shot down, and which were almost as tame as pets. These poor animals were acustonied to being fed in winter time by the foresters whom they had gotten used to, and they would come to the feeding place, beauti ful, unsuspicious and ns gentle as only deer can be. On this dreadful day they were driven into a corner of the big forest park and shot down by the score The women of the party had stayed be hind, but when we all gathered together and saw the corpses of the lively animals, several of us had no appetlta for the hunt breakfast, that followed, and one or two shed tears, nut the man were delighted with their prowess. Where the Line is Drawi Between Life sad Death is Something Not Fully Understood J And the question i unlaws, for whom do wo wear pretty frockt" our own artistic taste? Kor our own sex? Or for men?" To satisfy By (JAItUKTT P. SKHVIBS. A dispatch from Paris, printed not long iitfii. told of the wonderful feat of a pro fessional swlniinner who remained under wiitt-r no less than five minutes and twenty six seconds. In the meatiwhllo swimming thirty jards though to tally Immersed all th- time, and un able to take any flesh air Into his lungs If he had re mained under water a few seconds longer, no doubt he would have been drowned, A drowned man, as far as wo can see. mid as far as ho Is personally concerned, Is a dead man! and yet there Is little question that, If this swimmer had thus perished, he could by modern methods have been revived, and would thus apparently havo been brought back from death to life, Mnny drowned persons have thus besn re stored after all consciousness had de parted from them. The explanation usually given Is that In such cases It Is not real death, hut "suspended animation," with whloh we are dealing. The bodily machine has stopped, like an engine "stuck on the center." and by clearing the obstructed passages, Imparting artificial movement to thn muscles of the chest and Introduc ing air Into the lungs, the machinery Is set going ngaln. The heart resumes Its bentlng and the man recovers conscloui. ness as the blood begins once more to flow through his arteries And yet the fact remains that, as far as we can determine, suspended anima tion, for the victim himself, is equivalent to death, and If It Is allowed to pais Into what we call real death there Is nothing In his experience to Indicate any further change. As a personality he suf fered when his consciousness departed A kind of separate "life" remains for a time In the different organs and parts of the body, but It Is not the thing which we, as conscious beings, know as life, .There are other ways In which "ap parent dcBlh;" that Is, death as far as the individual's consciousness Is con cerned, may h produced, It sometimes happens, for Instance, In various forms of trance. In perfect sleep, unaccompa nied by drtams, the consciousness Is ''nmplntely arrested. It the sleeper should or could remain In that state for a thousand or a million years. It would be all the same to him. Yet In sleep the I am not condoning tl:e sluughter of the ulgrette; 1 am merely showing you another sldo of the picture. 1 know a man who belongs to the antl blrd killing society and Is a model hus band in every way. 11c boasts that hn likes to see his wlfo dross "neat nnd plain." but I notice that he alwajH turns around to look nt the women on the street whose frocks are in the latest fashion, whose coats ate trimmed with fur and whose hats stream plumes and feathers. It seems to mo at theso Union that ho looks nt his wife with disappointment, though It would bta agulust his best theories to buy her clothes he ailmiros on others. Sometimes I wonder how long she Is going to stand It, and whether Hho won't jciiii't that hhe was :ilwas neat and plain uud sensiblq. , Women .drew to outrival each- r.ther, but the) would not rare about this rivalry If admiration of men wo not tin- prluc The Amazons were not fnahlonahlo nnd cared very little about clothes. Men are to blame fyu the cnntlmif l slaughter of the nlgrettec, for bes!den doing the killing theniBoIves. they ad mire tho dead bird when It li perched upon the head of a wnniiui. If they didn't adnilru them n more aigrettes would he worn. Wrlln and till me for wlvpin.yoti wear appearance of death Is not produced for those who look upon the sleeper. They sen that he continues to breathe ami that his heart goee on beating, while the circulation of the blood, thoush !( may be changed or slowed down, Is not arrested. Something occurs that cut! off the connections of thn nervous sys tem, or the brain, and consciousness departs. When the man Is profoundly asleep oi In a state of suspended animation, at In drowning, are tho parts ot his hod) which stilt retain a kind of life sep arately conscious ot that life We havt no reason to suppose that they are; but, on the other hand, we have no means of proving that they are not. It such consciousness exists, It has no apparen relation to the consciousness of the whole Individual, which assures him that he Is living. He has that consciousness only When his entire system Is working together, and In such a way a to stlm ulate the activity of his brain. Some very Interesting experiment have been tried recently with suspended imlmatlon. At Moscow Trof. Hakh mctleff has played boldly with the lite of many animals and Inserts by freezing them. lluttcrttles thus frozen so that all their bodily fluids were turned to Ice and all their vital actions ceased could bn re stored to life at any time, provided that tho general bodily temperature was not reduced below minus ten degrees Centi grade. This was managed by varying the temperature of the air In which they were kept. Hats thus refrigerated were kept In a state of apparent death for weeks together and then completely restored to activity. It Is well known that lower forms of life, like bacteria, may be subjected lo temperatures approaching that Nof liquid air and then, after a long Interval, be brought back to active life. Some specu- latlvo minds have suggested that life may originally have been brought to the earth by spores and germs driven off from some other planet perhaps even from planets circling round some distant star and after remaining in a state of "sus pended animation" for thousands of years, amid the awful cold of open space, havo been restored to activity upon en countering our planet. The oelebratea Arihenlus has maintained, that In this way "a mighty stream of life is kept cir cling tu space from world to world." Seeds that have been kept frosen for months In liquid air have been thawed out ond planted, whereupon they germi nated and grew Into plants u If nothing extraordinary had happened to them.
