It occurred to me that Miss Mary,

"It's a play-up of e," I suggested.
Miss Donnelly nodded asiont. "And

SHE'8 NEVER A SUFFRAGIST
WHEN SHE DRESSES SO.
The business girl who dresses too
gay-ly la never a suffragist. For the
believer 1n votes for women Is a
thoughtful
who has
brtqnped to reallzf for herself Jutt what
innt most disgusting anti-argument, me i
'Indirect 'influence of women,' really ,
means. Klin knows thAt It la sex In-,
fluenre, nothing else, and that one of(
us umo-nonorecj nianiicsiauvns is buk
gestlve clothing.
"The suffragist business girl nellher
consciously nor uncoij-rlourly attempts
tf 'Ml In Ed' wftll tier emflnyer l"
a sartorial revelation of her seductive
charms. Instead, she devnlei all her
attention to her work, and expects to
be Judged by vxeellenco of accomplish
ment Just ns the man who figure up
columns beside her Is Judged.
"Of couute. Miss Donnelly broke off,
with a shrug, "It's perfect nonsense for
tha Western t'nlon or any other band
of men ofllclnls to thlsk they can dic
tate as to tlfs ares of the women who
work for them. No man knows enough
to tell a. woman wnat to wear. Ami
one of- ih most chorlshffl signs of
democracy Ui Amerlro Is the compara
tive absence of uniforms.
"In this earucuiar instance tne v. w-
em' Uplon man who put out the order
o noted In the papers went too far In the
other direction. That's what comes of I
a man, trying to meddje with things
that he knows nothing about.
"The Ideal sjimmer costume for ft
Now Tork business girl Is a ooltarless
shlsjt waist with sleeves coming Just
below the elbow. The iwabst should not
be out lower than the tot of the collar
bqnc, and It should not be of the pe-k-a-bon
variety. Hut the round, Hat
Dutch collar, which leaves tho throat
bare, Is jicrfoctly modest and dainty.
And' no young nlrl ought to be forced to
wear long sleeves with stiff cuffs In hot
weather.
DRESS SHOULD BE SUITABLE,
BECOMING, COMFORTABLE.
"The three essential requisites for
every (Ires' are that It shall he suit
able, becoming and comfortable. The
costume I have described for office wear
Is nil these things. A girl In elaborate
nnd fussy clothes Isn't really comfort
nblc. liven' If thero Is no actual physl.
eqt discomfort, such as Is caused by
tight IncInK or light boots, there is tho
continual mental strain
"Such a girl can think of nothing
but her appearance, and she must be
all the tlmo pulling out her pocket
mirror or her flowder puff to look for
and repair damages It Is obvious that
she won't accomplish much work Hut
nellher will she If she Is pinioned In a
tillili, tight collar on a hot August day,
obeying somobudy's notions of decoruhi.
Thero Is n happy mean."
