AS WOMAN TO
WOMAN
RUTH CAMERON
rHE LMdy-Who-Always-Knows-
Somehow and Moll]) Were having <
a conference on the one subject %
that is always interesting to women.
Molly had* been ■ shopping for >a" chiffon'
, waist. She had looked in , -, four shops -
without finding anything Ito satisfy her
end the Lady was" 'advising \ her to
try W's. " ■
The Wanls-10-be-Cynic had been
poking r the fire and listening. ; Finally
he broke out in comment. "If that isn't
just like a woman. Been to four shops
and going to some more. .Catch a man doing anything that! *
"No,' retorted Moily, "of course, you wouldn't.;' What a man does is
to go into a shop and buy the first suit the salesman shows him, no matter what
it looks like Sometimes it happens to look decently on him and sometimes it
doesn't. Take thai gray suit * you hated so that you scarcely wore it; if you
had ever looked around would you have bought that? Didn't you tell me it
was the first thing the salesman showed you? Catch a woman being that foolish!",
"Funny how different men and women are." rtrminaied the Cynic, swing
ing gracefully into a general discussion. "There's. lots of little things like tttat
which don't seem to have any particular connection with sex ■ that they're as
>-v.ferent about as can be." ']- ;- / . - : '
"Yes," agreed the Lady-Who-Always-Krtows-Somehow, "queer little
things, too. For instance, did you ever notice that cAt women want to have the
window shades £epi even with the middle sash and all men want to run them
sky high?" : ■■:,'■ ■• • - ' ■■
"Men never can stand hot' things , the way women can," put m the Author-
Man's wife. "Why, my husband never will drink anything until it's just about
lukewarm." ■■ ■■' '-■ ■■ . ■ : t}:-\ ■'..■■.-■■■■-.■.- ■' ■■:,■■■ ■■■■ ' ■■■■■..■■■■' - : A : - ■:■• ■■■
. . Women never will take a chdnce the way men will," contributed the
ho-Thmks\ "For instance; nine women ettt of ten would rather have ;
their husbands earn a steady income, even if it were small, than take a chance \
for bigger things. The normal man is just the other way around." N j
'Well, did you ever notice the way men always draw diagrams when
they try to explain anything?" said Molly. : • "Thafs something you never see
a woman do. Ask any man how to get anywhere mi he whips out his pencil
and an envelope and has a diagram drawn in 20 seconds. . Ask ! 0 women the
same question and you wouldnl get a single diagram ... .-'
"One difference ."/; notice particularly," said the Man-fVho-Thmks, : ?*is.
h<rw much more patience i>omen have than men and how much less \ ingenuity.
Woman endures, man cures; Men never would have stood the inconveniences
of housework as women have. . Give a man and a woman a daily task to do,
hampered by sortie inconvenience, and the man won't do it more than once before
he will be studying how to get rid of the inconvenience, while the woman will
probably go on enduring until doomsday." .
Vomtn certainty are queer things" said the Wanls-io-bc'-Cyhic;c
"Only one thing queerer." said Molly. , ~
Thursday evening, .Time 5, Iras been
chosen by Miss MarjoTie Stafford as" the

She has' never mci! her -.;! 1 mother'

I 1 know about him jls|tffat] mother calls
him 'Billy , and I \ know he must be

FRED C. KELLY
: WASHINGTON, May . .'. 2.-—Bllndnew
does not deter Senator Thomas P. Gore
frotn beinr a great love? of fi»e book*.
Hβ Is fond of Book* printed on hlgfe
quality paper and 1 I handsomely (bound.
When he picks up a good book he does
It with an air Httfe short ©i reverenc*.
The fact that he cam not see it doeen't
matter. At the time a book is beiny
read to him he holds- two at three mere
in hie lap caressing them, almost as a
child might caress" a* Britten. He thirsts
for information', and , snst ftr ijairellip^a
of a book that contains- sometMwjf he
wishes to know seems to g%ve Mn» a
sort of satisfaction.
• * •
• When he has some one read to hint,
as he does every night until 11 o'clock,
he usually goes over to- the- bookcas*
~end^sel i ß*s^th« book himself. He knows
the exact location of half the books in
his libvafry— afld it is a library.
Occasfonally h« will for a- Volume
and nobody can find it. "Phen ttke as
not he Can go and find it himself.
He wastes no time o« books that
does not fit hie . mood, and' not infre
quently he will listen to a dozen differ
eritJ3^OFk»' in the course of an evening.
Maybe while listening to a book on
the PAtma canal he Will ■ think of Mill's
essays and will aefc the reader to
switch to that. In that way he follows
:
the line of least mental resistance, and
with the book falltne into hist n?6~od he
remembers it all the-flaore readily.
* * >■ " '•'• ; W
All his office room* and his study
at home are piled higrh 5 with all kinds
of reports and pampfi-lets on prac
tically evej-y conceivable subject until
the whole aspect of things is that of ;
the morning after a young , tfornado,
with the Wreck undisturbed until the
insurance adjuster arrives.
# * *
y^ t When it f comes to newspapers, a half
hour's reading will give the blind sena
tor all he cares for. His secretary reads
him the more important headlines and '
the index and , the senator picks 'out
one or two stories that interest him.
He never reads anything- ) pertaining to
sports or atty kind of police news,
murders, suicides and the like. ■?■$&!&
* '." * * # •
* ; ;B-efor- starting on a long journey
alone Senator (ioio usually stoeke up
a suitcase with about . all the books
it will hold and trusts to luok to meet
people"; on the trains who will 1 i*ead >to
•him. In this respect -he lra« little
trouble. He runs across . a surprising
number of poor readers—business men
who can not pronoiince wdfds'that they
ought ato s knrow, and other* who have
no sense of inflection—but tlvere- are
plenty who volunteer to read whatever
"he-/ wants, though usually what he
wants is something serious that doesn't
appeal to the average traveler. «*? Senator
Gtore h«s always had his best luck at
bumping into good readers out
lowa. But he says the best refa-der he
ever met in his travels fi*om coaet to
coast was a Pullman' porter, a Jamaica
negro. • . -
# • ♦ \
'~ Books, however, are relegated to sec
ond place as an educational factor in
Gore's travels. , He says he lettrned
more from people in the smoking com
partments fof "J Pullmans than ?he could
have acquired '$ in the same V length of
time from books. .-,., . , „.„.-.*-
" "There 3 are thousands sof specialist*
traveling: about all the , time," he rfays,
"men who know 'a * whole lot about'
some one thing. When I have t the g«o&
luck to find , myself alongside of a
specialist I try not to ret him get? away"
'til he has told me his whole story." ■
