A Woman's Business By Zoe Beckley ,

EACH TO HIS OWN PATH Probably the strongest minded female ever born treasured a secret wish to be dominated by some man Doubtless the successful business woman never lived who was happy in having more success than her husband. , No woman lives for power alone. She wants love. And love Implies protection; protection implies force of character which in turn generally carries with it a big share of this world's goods. " Janet had never, even to herself,

thought of her husband as a failure. Womanwise, she raised him to a pedestal of strength and triumph. He

was working along lines he had mark

ed out for himself, and that showed grit. He was doing excellent work; everyone told him so, even the publishers who rejected his manuscripts. That surely showed a measure of triumph. And he would of course,' In time, Janet persistently told herself set his feet high on the ladder of success. But she was impatient. Her path had always been the commercial path, a steep path enough, but one which had the steps ready cut in it. Opportunities had always been waiting for

Mrs. Bessie - Robinson . and little daughter, Marjorie, have returned from Rochester, Minn., where Marjorie has been taking treatment at Mayo hospital, and is much improved.

Paul Fisher of Detroit, Mich., 13 visiting , relatives and, friends here. Fisher formerly lived in this .city. The Mary F. Thomas club met yesterday afternoon in the MorrissonReeves library. The devotionala were in charge of Mrs. Albert Brown and Mrs. Helen Barnard gave a talk on the Union Signal, the W. C. T. Ui paper. Mrs. J.S. Hill read a paper written by Major W. S.

Mrs. D. E. Dennis who has been

critically ill with pneumonia, at her home on South Thirteenth street, is improving.

The Star Bible class of Second Presbyterian church will hold its March meeting tomorrow evening with Mrs. C. G. Beam at her home, 2313 North F street. The hostess will be assisted by Mrs. Kenneth Mills. Mrs. E. L. Olcott returned today from a several days' visit in Indianapolls with friends.

her, like foot-holes in a rocky wall. She had never had to make her own opportunities, slowly, and with Infinite labor. Janet had grown a bit commercial minded. Fat salaries had been a part of her opportunities. It was just a little hard for her to understand the writing temperament Its longing for expression without compromise. For have not women for centuries had to compromise with their own hearts and their own minds in order to be what their world approved of and called "being a success"? If Janet had analyzed her exact feeling toward Walt in the matter of his refusal to write the serial story as Nicoll wanted him to write it, she would have called him unreasonable. Exasperatingly and stubbornly unreasonable! Would it hurt him to change a few things in the story to conform to popular opinion and taste? Could it hamper his career as a writer to do just one story for money? Wouldn't he gain enough by a little compromise to do just as he pleased in his future stories? Having a plump bank account would in itself give him confidence and dash, and make his success the more soon and certain. But no! He chose to sacrifice everything comfortable to his fanatic adherence to principle! Well, then, she, Janet, would subordinate all other things to HER WORK! She would make it her love and her refuge, her ambition and her reward! She would have no ideal save Success! It was enough to have Walter burning out his life and strength on the altar of Principle! As for herself, she prepref erred something more tangible, something that PAID better! For a time these thoughts remained imprisoned In Janet Stedman's subconscious mind. It would have been better if she had spoken them, even scolded and spat them forth, as the light-minded, loose-tongued type of a wife would do. Being bottled up, they gradually drove Janet in the direction they tended that is, away from Walt. Less and less did she think of him, and more and more of the powerful, successful, opportunity-giving man so constantly in her vision, Roy Nicoll. Fewer and fewer were the happy evenings at home that Walt and Janet had so loved a while ago. Both now were engrossed in work that somehow they did not care to talk about. There seemed an undercurrent of differing opinion. Walt rarely spoke to

his wife of the stories or plays he was at work on. Janet almost never consulted Walt about her affairs in her Realm Supreme, the office. Without appearing ever to step one

Inch frctn his regular course, Roy managed always to be about when Janet needed counsel. His ear was ever ready to listen to her problems, his advice was invariably kind, keen and encouraging. Janet always had a renewed sense of success and stimulation after she had talked with him. She was so astonished at her own undreamed-of canabiliitles that she ex-

claimed one day to Nicoll: "Isn't it

wonderful, Roy, how it's turned out! It was such a risk, my taking this big job! I never believed I could swing it. It's the luckiest thing that ever happened in this world!" Roy looked into her eyes a moment and then said with a cetraln slow, Impressive lowering of the voice: "No, my little girl, it isn't wonderful. Nor was it a risk. Nor a 'lucky' thing. It may seem so to you, but not to me. I K-N-E-W! It was no gamble, no mere 'luck.' I thought it all carefully out. You simply did not know your powers, nor had you any chance to upset them. Now you have the chance. That's all!" He stopped abruptly, then talked of other things business matters. Presently he bade Janet a pleasant goodnight and, to her surprise and vague disappointment, left the office for the day. It was part of Nicoll's talent ' to know exactly when, where and how to stop talking. (To be continued.) -
