RUDE DISPARAGEMENT OF
BUSINESS WOMEN.
In the current Forum is an article by Henry
Norman entitled 'The Feminine Failure in
Business," in which the matter it treated as
one already settled by experience and the
author's accusations. "Woman looks upon the
business world," we are told, "pretty. much as
she views her own social world. She knows
the value of playing one person against another,
of using a bit of flattery here, of arousing a mild
Jealousy there, of utilizing her sex as her most
powerful weapon, her personal charms as the
Rarest, swiftest means to every end."
Even more serious delinquencies are charged
gainst woman by Mr. Norman. We find such
Remarks as these: "She is not a good lawyer
because she has no innate sense of justice . , .
The cold reasoning faculty is not hers . . .
Woman is fundamentally an entity of personal
trppeals; she is swayed by her likes and dis
likes; she cannot separate her emotional self
from her intellectual . . . She has neither
i4e, physical stamina, nor the intellectual elasfic
fty to successfully cope with her male competi
tor. , . If a woman loves a man he can do
too wrong in her eyes; if the laws of the uni
verse interfere with her own ends, the laws
must be modified or set aside. . . Woman is
a: natural partisan in every walk of life. Her
instincts, inherited from cave dwelling ancestors,
are to stick uncompromisingly to her own peo.
pie, to fight for her own side and to fight
fiercely, blindly. Competition is something to
be combatted with bitter hostility. . . Give
a woman a little authority, pay her a decent
salary, and she immediately becomes a dan
gerous partisan, dangerous to herself and her
employers."
With woman hardly on the threshold of the
business experience and training that are to be
hers, she is condemned perpetually by Mr. Nor
aian, who says:
I In business pursuits women are hot likely
to go further than they have already gone,
"'either in the relative number of them em
ployed or the varieties of work they represent.
The fact is, in business woman has reached
the zenith of her powers. This is to because
the average business woman "has been
, weighed in the balances and found wanting."
" Viewed from a common-sense standpoint
, the business woman is in business because she
has to be, because she has to earn her living;
shrewd men of affairs have found out where
and how to employ women where their pe-
culiar talents will be developed most profitably
to those who pay them. The mushy talk of
woman's refining influence in executive busi
. ness has no foundation in fact. She does not
go into business for the sheer excitement of
: competing with men and demonstrating her
- superiority. The motive that drives a woman
j to work in office, store or factory is precisely
I the same motive that drives a man into the
. same placesthe need of money. Any other
j explanation is pure buncombe and subterfuge.
) A bold man, this, thus to pass judgment. It
' It not so long ago when men's business thoughts
xao in tens and hundreds of dollars. Two gen
! erarjons ago they gained courage to think and
& in thousands and in tens of thousands. Then
ftame the era of corporations combinations of
the capital of many men which taught men to
think in units of hundreds of thousands and
millions; while the late war has compelled them
feo ponder over billions. x
Why cannot women develop from small to
large affairs? Why should she now be ex
pected to cope with her male competitor and
Iris experience, against which the cleverest of
bosiness men a century ago would have con
tested in vain? We believe there is a great fu
ture for women in business, but her advance
ment must be along the same natural lines which
have brought efficiency to men during the thou
sands of years in which he alone has carried
the purse.
' There is as yet no general willingness among
men to divide cash assets with their women, or
to encourage them in the arts of finance and
business. They are using them in commercial
pursuits now because they are useful in busi
ness. The woman who can be profitable to her
employer in business can be more profitable to
herself once she has mastered fundamental busi
ness principles. Is there any unprejudiced man
so daring in bis opinions that he would deny
woman's capacity to absorb and apply them
zfter the same experience a man must have to
do the same thing? We trow not
Mr. Norman's attack should be an inspira
tion to business women rather than a discour
agement. He is himself grievously in error,
bat we wish for his own sake that he had not
permitted hh obliquity of judgment to betray
him into the statement that a woman "has no
innate sense of justice." He is without thepale
fcf charitable consideration in that
It ha been a long, long time since we saw
'so many attractive, intellectual and beautiful
girl faces, and such handsome, intelligent and
bright boy countenances, as those shown in the
bif group picture of the Central High school
graduates in The Sunday Bee. 0r judgment
would be that in the years to come these young
people will win distinction in many walks of life.

Why waste time with old poetry when one
may have new verse once a month when "Poe
try, a Magazine of Verse," comes regularly to
gladden and inspire?
Old fogies go to Burns, Tom Hood, Butler,
even Swift and Byron, when Longfellow, Whit
tier, Tennyson, grow tame and uninteresting.
And all the while "Poetry" is to be had, with
lines like these:
Love me, child of the morning 1
Happy blossom in the wind, love me.
See, I am sad I have dwelt long in chaos,
And my hands and my feet are star-pierced
Love me ... .
Away with the manicure and the chiropodist,
with their delicate attentions! Let us love
"star-pierced" hands and feet, and be forgetful
of warts and hangnails, corns and bunions, with
"Poetry" to charm away our aches and pains.
You may, if you wish, become a "supporting
subscriber" at $10 per annum, to this "organ of
the art" of poesy, and revel in the profundity of
lines ouch as we regretfully use in closing:
Toe worm of love,
A-spinning its cocoon
Of silken cloth,
Of delicate silence, whence so soon
It should emerge, a lunar moth.
Honest to goodness, can you beat it for
afflatus? The "worm of love," the tadpole of
the Muse!
A Senatorial Quotation.
Senator Park Trammell of Florida is ac
cused of alluding in the senate to "the same
old story of Nero's wife fiddling while Rome
burns," to the covert amusement of his col
leagues, who wear their history more correctly.
Nero himself played on musical instruments
during the fire, but probably not on a violin.
His first wife, Octavia, was divorced, and killed
when twenty years old. His second, Poppaea
Sabina, was a dissolute beauty, who approved
Nero's cruel murder of his mother, who herself
had murdered her uncle, Claudius, in order that
her son, Nero, might have the throne.
Royal Roman society was rotten in Nero's
time (the first century) and so was politics, for
the Roman senate congratulated Nero on assas
sinating his mother, and Seneca, the philosopher,
whose face, done in stone, is one of the archi
tectural ornaments on the west side of Omaha's
public library, wrote a defense of the foul deed
inspired by the emperor's lust for another man's
wife. After the fire at which the "fiddling" was
done, Nero accused the Christians of starting
the flames and inflicted hideous punishments
upon them. He was a bad lot the most vicious
tyrant in history a born criminal stained with
every despicable infamy known in his time, and
finally killed himself.
Eleventh hour sensations in a convention
representative of the entire United States should
not be accepted at face value. The men repre
senting the republican party at Chicago know
what they are about and that their task is to
unite on the strongest man. Do not doubt for
one minute that they have in mind the cool,
level-headed judgment of the people at home,
and will strive to win its full approval.

Oh for a booke and a shadie nooke,
Eyther in doore or out;
With the greene leaves whispering overhead
Or the streete cryes all about;

Old English Song.
Whence Tweedledum and Tweedledee.
Of the countless persons who habitually use
'Tweedledum and Tweedledee" to signify a dis
tinction without a difference, few are aware that
the phrase was originally coined to express con
tempt for musical controversy. The circum
stances under which the words came into the
English language were these: .
In 1720 the Royal Academy of Music
brought to London a distinguished Italian com
poser and conductor, Giovanni Bononcini, and
the incident was regarded as a deliberate at
tempt to assail the prestige of Handel, who had
for years been established in favor of George I
and his court. The great Marlborough family
was then at odds with the house of Hanover,
and anti-German feeling prevailed among old
Jacobite families. These factions speedily took
the Italian newcomer under their wings, and
the result was that, for the first and only time
in British history, rivalry between two mu
sicians assumed a political aspect. The feud
was embittered by the real success of Bonon
cini's opera, "Griselda," a charming aria, which
was revived by Madame Galli-Curci two or
three years ago.
It was whlie this controversy was at its
height that the following satirical lines appeared
and were recited throughout London:
Some say, compared to Bononcini
That Mynheer Handel's but a ninny;
Others aver that he to Handel
Is scarcely fit to hold a candle.
Strange that such difference should be
Twixt tweedledum and tweedledee.
In many quarters these lines have been at
tributed to Dean Swift, but it is now believed
that they were written by a forgotten rhymester,
John Byron. At any rate, the final line passed
immediately into the proverbial storehouse of
the English language and is as widely quoted
today as anything in Shakespeare.
A moment's examniation of the sounds of
"tweedledum" and tweedledee" shows; that they
are onomato-poetic words coined to describe
ordinary violin phrases. It was the poet's way
of saying that all fiddlers looked alike to him.
No doubt it did a good deal to make people see
the ridiculous side of the controversy, but it did
not deter Handel from his pursuit of Bononcini.
A few years later he was able to prove that the
Italian had deliberately palmed off as his own
madrigal by Lotti, whose works were at that
time almost unknown in England. Sioux City

THE TRAFFIC COP A THOME.
Sir: If you were a woman, how would you
like to be married to a traffic cop? Few men
can, or do, divest themselves of their business
or professional worries when they reach their
homes at the close of day. Perhaps a traffic cop
does; perhaps when he doffs his cap and coat,
he likewise divests himself of the facial expres
sion that cows millionaires, mere men, matrons
and, mebbe, mayors, but it is doubtful. An auto
crat of the avenue by day, is he an humble hus
band by night? Can he, by the raising of a
hand, stop a flow of words as effectually as he
stops the flow of traffic? It would be interest
ing to discuss with her who knows best the home
habits and conduct of a traffic cop. JOEDE.

recently wrote, "No more privacy than a traffic
cop." We doubt whether ate. has a private life.

PROTECTIVE COLORATION.
A brown leaf and a gray leaf
And a blackened leaf beside;
The forest floor is littered so,
But one has never tried
To sell all things the forest holds,
When April keeps her spell,
Who has not sought the woodcock
Where she broods immovable.
A brown leaf and a gray leaf
And a blackened leaf indeed .
May show a shrewd duplicity
To eyes that truly heed.
But none may know, descrying
Where the brooding woodcock sits,
Whether, nestled in her leaf bed,
Consciously she counterfeits.

READING FOR J. U. H-
Sir: If you will allow me to pinch-hit for
you, I will tell J. U. H. what to read. Without
knocking Dr. Eliot's selections, which roost on
my shelves, I want to say that a liberal educa
tion can he derived from the leisurely perusal
of the following half dozen volumes: Lucretius'
"De Rerum Natura," Montaigne's "Essays,"
Dickens' "Bleak House," Chesterton's "Ortho
doxy," Sumner's "Folkways," and Synge's "Play
boy of the Western World." This list, framed
ten years ago, has withstood the test of time,
and takes in everything ever worth while, com
prising wit, wisdom, narrative, philosophy, and
humor. Only one book read in all that time
stands a show. This is France's "Penguin
Island," which, it must be grudgingly admitted,
was read on your own recommendation.

THE BREATH OF FLOWERS.
(Francis Bacon, On Gardens.)
And because the breath of flowers Is far
sweeter in the air (when it comes and goes, like
the warbling of music) than in the hand, there
fore nothing is more fit for that delight than to
know what be the flowers and plants that do
best perfume the air. Roses, damask and red,
are fast flowers of their smells; eo that you may
walk by a whole row of them, and find nothing
of their sweetness; yea, though it be in a morn
ing's dew. Bays likewise yield no smell as they
grow; Rosemary little, nor Sweet Marjoram.
That which, above all others, yields the sweetest
smell in the air is the Violet, especially the white
double Violet, which comes twice a year, about
the middle of April and about Bartholomew-tide.
Next to that is the Musk-Rose; then the Straw
berry leaves dying with a most excellent cordial
smell; then the flowers of the Vines it is a
little dust, like the dust of a bent which grows
Upon the cluster In the first coming forth. Then
Sweet Briar;. 'then Wall flowers, which are very
delightful to be set under a parlour or lower
chamber window; then Pinks, and Gilliflowers,
specially the matted Pink, and Clove Gllliflower;
then the flowers of the Lime Tree; then the
Honeysuckles, so they be somewhat afar off! Of
Bean flowers I speak not, because they are field
flowers. But those which perfume the air most
delightfully, not passed by as the rest but being
trodden upon and crushed, are three that is
Burnet, Wild Thyme, and Water Mints. There
fore, you are to set whole alleys of them, to
have the pleasure, when you walk or tread.
WHEN a political convention is on, there
are few things more interesting than gardens

MINOR SURGERY WAR
LESSONS.
Here appear some of the improve
ments in what might be called minor
surgery which the war taught us
and which Dr. Maxelner says in
Modern Medicine can be used to ad
vantage in Industry:
In shock It is very necessary to
warm up the pationt. Accurate tem
perature recording shows that he is
cold. The fundamental essential is
to warm him up quickly and to keep
him warm. Wrap him in a few
blankets and put a few hot bricks
around him one to the foot and one
to his back and you will do him
more good than if you gave him all
the whisky in Dalrymple's cellar. If
he is wet dry him, but above all
warm him.
The next essential Is to give him
water if his stomach will stand it,
warm coffee or warm tea or ordi
nary water. Do not let the taking
of medicine interfere with drinking
of water. If he can take aromatic
spirits of ammonia, by all means
give it to him, but if it is liable to
upset his stomach and interfere with
the taking of water do not give it.
If water cannot be given by stomach
and the need is great, it should be
given by rectal injection, by injection
into the tissues or into a vein.
It was found best to inject teta
nus antitoxin into every person hav
ing a wound that was at all dirty.
This was as much a routine as was
cleaning and dressing. The best way-
to give it was 500 units once each
week for three weeks. The giving of
1,500 units at one dose at the time
of treatment was a good, but not the
best plan. Dr. Maxeiner said: "In
our opinion the courts eventually
will hold that 'the man who failed
to use antitetanic serum as a pro
phylactic measure is both neglectful
and liable.' "
The war proved that most wounds
should be cleaned up and then closed
by suture. The percentage In which
this was found to be the best pro
cedure varied between 80 and 90.
The best surgeons cut away all
mangled tissue, including loose ends
of bones, cleaned the wound well and
sewed it up. In most cases where
this was not possible the wound was
packed with gauze for three days
and then sewed up. Badly infected
wounds were washed with Dakin's
fluid every two hours until the bac
teria In the discharges were but few
in number, after which they were
sewed up.
Badly fractured limbs were put up
in a Thomas splint on the field.
When the authorities changed their
treatment so that persons with badly
fractured limbs were not handled
until after the fractures had been
well splinted they cut the death rate
of such cases almost half in two. The
cutting and tearing of a jagged bone
end does great harm.
Sinclair glue is much superior to
adhesive plaster. The formula of
Sinclair glue is: Glue, 49; thymol, 1;
calcium chloride, 1 ; water, 50.
The massage of fractured limbs
and passive motion of neighboring
joints should be begun the day after
the dressings are applied.
I can divide a cake into three and
take it in three oranges a day."
REPLY.
This treatment has relieved many
when combined with other treat
ment Take one-half cako or one
cake three times a day. In addition
massage the skin well and keep it
extremely clean. Express black
heads once or twice a week. Limit
your diet especially as to sweets and
starches.
Treating Hay Fe-vt-r Now.
Mrs. B. writes: "1. Do you think
May 1 too early to start calcium
chloride for hay fever? I want to
mend the roof before it rains, as you
call it. It did me worlds of good
last year.
"2. I wondered if I should take it
each year or pass it up one season.
From not being run down with hay
fever last summer, I have gained
several pounds in weight this winter,
and never felt better in my life."
REPLY.
1. No.
Z. Keep on taking it. To save
others the trouble of writing I will
give the method. Dissolve 4 ounces
or calcium chloride crystals in 1 pint
of distilled or rain water. Take one
taespoonful, well diluted, three
times a day. Begin sometime before
the onset of the season. Some take
calcium lactate In place of chloride
because it tastes better. This 1
helpful in hay fever, asthma ami
other spasmodic disorders.
