The Cure.

Robert W. Chambers, the popular novelist, said' in an antisuffrage address in Brooklyn: “A modern girl—one of those pretty, vote-chasing, athletic modern girls who ride astride, swim in men’s swimming suits, smoke cigarettes and read Wells and Shaw —a modern girl of this type repined one day at a tea because she could not be an aviator In the war. “ ‘Oh,’ Bhe sighed, blowing a cloud of cigarette smoke from her lips —‘Oh, If heaven had only made me a man!’ “ ‘Heaven did, my dear,’ said a placid mktron, ‘and you’ll find hijn some day, and then all this new-thought nonsense of yours will cease forever.’ ”
