Dr. LYMAN HE iJeal womau must makes walking well nigh h-r hands when it comes TAKE EXERCISE AND LET PAINT AND POW DER GO IF SHE DESIRES RED CHEEKS. She must not be the servant "f the milliner and dn-s.-ioaker. She must not change her stvlcs at ti e dictation of men in Paris. HER HOME MUST BE HER PALACE, and she must be industrious, sympathetic, ener getic, enthusiastic, motherly and a true friend. A woman's idea of modern industry is playing bridge whist morn ing and nij'lit. Her idea of modern life is to be supported by some one else. THE IDEAL WOMAN DOES NOT CONSIDER WORK UNWO MANLY. S.HE BELIEVES THAT WHATEVER CONCERNS HER HUS BAND CONCERNS HER. IF THE IDEAL WOMAN'S FAMILY FINDS FAULT WITH HER COOKING, SHE DOES NOT BLAME THE COOK. ING, SHE BLAMES THE FOOD AND CHANGES IT. WOMAN WAS MEANT TO BE MAN'S COMPANION, AND IF THE IDEA WERE PROPERLY CARRIED OUT THERE WOULD BE NO AFFINITIES.
