Woman'* Realm.
A woman cannot charm because she
*nts to. A man is not agreeable be-
iuse he sets out to be. The proper
lect must, like repartee, be spontar
nus and unpremeditated. It must
radiated naturally, like light and
ve pooka there are that pretend
tell how It is done. They do so
ilte as completely as grasshoppers
ach entomology. The ability to
to be agreeable, to entertain
Errfeqtly. and to be perfectly enter-
ning is an art apprehensible only
ough influences generally prenatal,
at always prolonged. The mere
chnique is so volatile that It must
Inhaled. Like the Mayfair Intona-
llttle by little, It must be ab-
rbed, says Edgar Saltus in the De-
lator.
Kings and thugs may abash the am
Iteur in the art of teasing, but the

limself in harmony with them. In the

WOMEN OVER 30 IN DEMAND.
Preaent Business Requirements Are
Different in This Respect.
"Over 30," and "not under ISO," aro
business requirements which are be-
coming more and more frequent
where tile services of a woman are de-
sired. In almost every such caae the
salary is above the average, and the,
qiuilillcations are those which
would l e almost impossible for a ve^y
young woman to count amoug her/as-
sets. The characteristics usually de-
manded In such Instances are "execu-
tive ability," "tact," and "good Judg-
ment."
The head of a New York establish-
ment making a specialty of supplying
business women lor all sorts of work,
in speaking of this subject, recently
said:
( "I have more applications nowadays
than ever before for thoroughly com-
petent, dignified, mature women,
trained and experienced in some line
of business, and upon whose Judgment
and intelligence an employer may re-
ly.
"I secured a very valuable woman
for a large dry goods store not long
ago. In older to induce her to change
from a former place the store owners
were obliged almost to double her sal-
ary. This woman had been for twen-
ty years accustomed to the handling
of laces. She commenced by selling
them—now she buys them, going
abroad three times a year for that
purpose. Her work Is one of great
responsibility. Do you think for a
moment it could be done by a young
woman? "Over l!0" would certainly
be a flattering figure at which to
place her age. She's 50 if she's a
day. v
"Another person whom I have in
mind and whom I placed mole than
two years ago in a very different sort
of a iob was a well preserved, thor-
oughly charming woman of. 1 should
say, almost 00 years of age. Having
brought up a family of her own and
being accustomed to the management
of a household, she fitted in capitally
as a house mother In a suburban
school, where the principal was wise
enough to a:" ' te ihe value of such
a person's u The salary paid
was not large nt she had a delight-
ful home and made an ideal mother
for the boarding school ulrls. She
did more or less chaperoning during
the school term, and this summer she
lias gone abroad with three of the
girls,
"Business men. too. such as law-
yers, bankers and brokers, to whom
re Intrusted many absolutely confi-
dential matters, are at last realizing
that the average young girl nf 18.
fiWsh from some business college and
with absolutely no experience, and
Iterhaps not much common sense. Is
not the sort of person to whom they
dare Intrust weighty business corres-
pondence and other details. Years
ago We did not dare send out a wom-
an oyer 2" without stating this fact to
her prospective employer: in fact,
rather apologizing for her lack of
youth. Rut that's all over now. and
when a man wants a thoroughly ex-
perienced woman to look after his
confidential mail and personal affairs,
the preference Is given every time to
such a wotuan as the advertisements
describe not under 30.
"Of course, it goes without saving
that such a woman must be prepos-
sessing in apnea ranee, for a certain
degree nf good looks nnd an attractive
n/nr.ner go a lone way In the selection
of a woman for any sort of business."

Why Wom~n Can't Run.'

"act—which fact Ih given on Its own
authority—that women can't run It
wants to know why this should be so,
why it should be that a little kirI can
run n very creditable race with a
small boy anil yet, twenty years later,
the man can run while the women
can't chase a street car ten yards
without being out of breath and In

eniporary admits that long skirts and
tight'laces may have something to do
with it. but declares that not a suffi-
cient reason.
We should advise I his perplexed
philosopher to array himself In five or
six clinging robes, put some two-Inch
stilts under his heels, crown himself
with a $25 creation of the Twentieth
century millinery that must needs be

ting married, then?" asked the girl
from the South, impatiently.
