When Mrs. Helen R. Robinson, the cnly woman senator in Colorado, smil ingly told a New York audience that jenare too hysterical to be making laws, she jarred all the conventional notions of sex characteristics. The highly strung temperament in - us ually associated with women) prob ably because our grandmothers were jo quick to go into hysteria or faint n slight provocation. . That it does not hold good for the women of to . day, a moment's thought will demon strate. Of course, to every rule there are exceptions, and there are still wo men quite emotional, as the public has come .to believe most prima don nas to be.'' On the other hand, a quiet mental summary of the couples of one's acquaintance ' will " reveal many instances where the woman has the business head of the family, is more cool In emergency, more self- possessed, more sanely practical. It is often urgec? as an argument against the mental equality of wo men with men that few women ap pear in the list of the world's great est poets, artists or musicians.
