AMERICAN WOMEN. Bhisco Ibanez, the noted Spanish writer, now In this country, startled a woman's meeting In Paris recently hy saying that American women were tired of the abject devotion of men. and longed for their particular man to show something of the cave man In hls characteristics. It Is said that Se ñor Ibanez must have got his impres sion of American marrtel life from the comic artists, one favorite picture of this class being that of the athletic wife waiting at the door with a rolling pin for her errant husband. One of the traditions of comic opera is the condition of terror in which men live with their wives, and probably this ha« been taken as an actual fact by many Europeans besides Senor Ibanez. Now no less a person than William Allen Neilson, president of Smith college, makes his voice heard by declaring that one of the main defects In worn an's education at the present day is the “too exclusive cultivation of the receptive attitude.” He warns stu dents that the greatest womanly fault is excessive docility, and urges them to seek to arouse doubt objection aud resistance. The success of growers of Egyptian cotton in the Southwest, particularly In Arizona, has been so great that the acreage to be planted this year prob ably will greatly exceed that of last year, which was approximately 90.000. The Egyptian cotton now being grown so extensively is a long staple variety which has come to be distinct from any long staple cotton grown In Egypt by reason of scientific plant breeding conducted by federal specialists. With the exception of Sea Island, now prac tically destroyed by the boll weevil, and the Meade, not yet established on a large scale, there is said to be noth- Ing In this country to compare wlth this American Egyptian cotton, Be cause of Its superior quality and es pe- dal fitness for making thread, auto mobile tire fabric, and other products, * strong demand for it has developed.

The discipline is said to be precisely the same as in his army: In other words, the firing squad Is the magneto of his labor engine. What a Joke It all Is on the proletariat, that thought It was going to work how. when and as little as it pleased. Two years ago I made a study of the heads of the one hundred leading In dustries of America, remarks Roger W. Babson in Independent. Those men are all multimillionaires and the lead ers In their Industry. Five per cent of them are the sons of hankers. 10 per cent of them are sons of merchants and manufacturers. 25 per cent of them are the sons of teachers, doctors and country lawyers, and over 30 per cent of them are the sons of preach ers whose salaries didn't average <1.500 a year.
