Ei STUDIED BY LETTER
Dr. MacDonald Says It Reveals
Interesting: Characteristics.
DRAWN OUT BY "ADS."
Insertions in Domestic and Foreign
Newspapers Bring: Out Some
Interesting Replies.
A proper htudj of human nature, in the
opinion of Dr. Arilim MacDonald, a well
know n crinnnulugisL, is that class of omen
who answer nerxjiwls" inserted ju daily
ncwsimpe-s.
Tliis line of im estimation is entirely
unique, and Dr. Al.icDonald lias rImmi it
a good sii.ire or his attention for the past
two jears, and carried jt on, until lately
ac considerable expense. lie has met
those wlioanswe-edhim win u possible, but
cliieHj corresponded with them, hi sin h a
manner as to 11 .ike them confess their
objects in seeking friends through umer
tisenients. For Fome months Dr MacDomldinsirted
"personals" in .ill the leading dailies of
Aniirua and Kurpoc, ueing tliree tjpts
of ads. One applied for mrnspondunu
with joung. (duciti'il wonuaoi high toual
and fin.uu la I position The second asked
for correspondent- with the same class
upon the f-ouologltal dewlopmont of
women, and the third asked 101 corres
pondeme with women of high educ ition
or women unhersitj students in (icrman,
rreneli and Knglish.
In Hum' .ul itisemeiits the do lor men
lioned himselt as a ginlletnan of sotial
rank and unnersitj education
GOT THOU&ANDSs OF lUIPLinb.
Dr.MacDotialilliasrcctned hesas, about
2 000 replies to his advertisements. Of
the". oul j about 5 per cent aj peart d to be
questionable ch ir.icters. In about "00
ca.es he met his corrc-poudentH and ex
amined their mental and nerotis tondi
tions. In manj cases lie secured their
photographs, th.it he might studj their
lacial expressions and features.
He has been able, he tjijs. to make an
ori'nal and scientific studj ol abnormal
women, not in institutions, but in society
at large, wlicrethej hac direct influence
upon the morality of the world. The word
"abnormal," however, does not neees
ban! Ii.nc an uncomplimentarj meaning.
An abnorm il person muj be 01. e of the 1 est
or one of the w orst citizens.
His object was to publish the letters in
book form, tint students as well as the
geneial public interested in sociologi might
getan insight into t lie anises of this pheno
menon This he has Jatelj done, he sajs,
omitting tlioe letters from women of
questionable character
He has taken careful precautions against
reealing the personalities of anj of the
correspondents, and has omitted names,
date s. mention of places, and persona 1 refer
ences of all kinds Ills own side of the
correspondence has been entirelj open
He has gnen his n.inio and address to the
women.
niS COHRESPONDKKCB
Dr McDonald ae permsion to pursue
the more interesting of the letters rccened
and to take notes from them when desired
About a hundred were selected and read for
this purpose Of the wiitersor these mauj
are students, writers and artists One is a
composer of music, one a poetess, tv. o arc
countesses, nnnj are teacher, manj are
daughters of wealth and famous men. and
m.inv hn-ve traeled much and seen the
world The majorits appear to be above
the nerage in education and culture
A great number forwarded recommenda
tions, presuming, apparcnth. that the
doctor was in scirih of a wife In some
orthesecae.nainesorproniineut p opleare
gnen as references Several go at great
length into their gei'e ih'ies He some
times found his correspondents to be
lnbitual answerers of 'personals,' who
often confused linn with other men with
whom the j viere corresponding.
The following "person il"' was inserted
in all of the principal Suuda p.i ers or

In their first replies correspondents gen
crall wrote to know more si ccificallj the
doctor's intentions His first letter to
them was about as follow s

bOilK OF THE LETTERS
The interesting part of the stedj, of
course, centers in the letters themselves
From eacli of the most interesting ones
a sentence or two best representing the
character of the senders has been selected
Each orthese will show either the confessed
purpose of the wonnn for writing her Ma
lion or condition 111 lile her intelliuente or
her moral scruples All of those replving
to thisadertisement are Americans Each
paragraph that follows is from a dliferent
letter.
"1 am a brunette twentj five, an orphan,

"I think I shall be reckless for a change

Of course. I ought not to write at all, but
this has a spice of noelt about it that
interests me "
"If ou will send me Our retl name

act and fancv I'd like just a tin bit of

"M patents arc dead. I have no one to
advise me, at least no one to whose advice
I would listen. If ni mother and father
were Iiv ng I would be at home with them,
happy and content, and would never ha-ve
written to jou."
'I am -not so conventional as to demanda

"The liUlel dare tell 0U of mj self cannot

and I can gi e no reason for addrcssingou

desire to break through convent onalitics. I

"Until lately I taught school, but the

"Do you. wish to know something of the

I assure you. My personal appearance Is
very satisfactory, thank you. Have I any
personal defects? Yes, a dimple in my
cheek. I hear one of the ladles calling,
Will you never come to life again?' This

QUESTIONING His MOTIVE.
"Either Ou have a piire mothe and a
good purpose or this Is a line scheme to
fall in a network of old maids who are
wealth and manless."
Theihirdndvertisement which withslight
variation, was inserted in some ol the prm
cipal ucv. spapers of Euroi e follows
"GENTEEMAX (de lcdncation Euro
peenne) desires to correspond 111 German,
Trench orEnglish with lady (gcbildetcDame
Oder Stud'Mitin)."
This advertisement, the doctor sas. was
less of a personal thin the previous ones,
and the answ ers show that tl eir w ritersand
their conditions are less abnormal than tl e
others. In writing to these foreign women
Dr. MacDonald usuall expressed his views
on woman's suffrage, and the general
sociological problems concerning women.
He did this in order to receive the Mews of
his correspondents.
B"ing an adept linguist, he was able to
carr on the stud throughout the greater
part of Europe Man of this class of
correspondents wrote in order to improve
themselves in one or the other of the
languages named.
Dr. MacDonaid's deductions from all of
these 2.000 letters are verj interesting.
The maiorlt of his corresiiondents have,
nothing special to do in life. Although
the maiority foster the semi-conscious
Idea that thev w ill possibly meet the man
of their choitc in this way.
The general cause of the disposition to
answer "personals.?' he sas, seems to be
want of broad education and defective
home training. The home life of many is
uncongenial. Thev -ire orphans. hae step
parents or oer7calous chaperons. Every
young woman should be shown the utter
folly of such a means of meeting friends.
On this account, he says, it has been his
habit to wind up liis correspondence with
these women by ghing them sound advice
on the subject.
"Worn at the Throat.
Tulle in all colors is much worn around
the throat at present, quite replacing the
black niousselinc de sole ruches, but chiefly
in plain or spotted w lute This fashion will
probably last some time, as it is particularly
becoming with the rather severe stSle of
costume of today Ladies who hav c a fancy
for colored veils will, of course, select their
tulle at the throat of the same color.
For the Traveler.
The "hold-all" of denim or striped awn
ing cloth is an indispensable comfort for
yachtswomen and travelers by sea If made
generous in" size, with three large pockets
below and six smaller ones above, It can be
trusted to keep all the paraphernalia of the
toilet conv eniently at hand and to accommo
date slippers, nightgown and bath robes as
well.
A Tribute to Our Comrnde.

who departed this life May 10. 1894. May
