Woman Triumph In Kansas.
Ccyfdn’t Forget It.
Out In Kansas where they strive to '
please, the women ought to have small
cause for complaint it It Is possible to
deprive the sex o f that Inalienable
right.
Here are some o f the things a wo
man of the Sunflower state may legal
ly do:
Can take back her maiden name af
ter her husband 1« dead, without any
legal process or legislative act.
Can keep her own name when she
Is married.
Can persuade her husband to take
her name and gi ve up his fam ily name
if she does not like it.
Can keep her maiden name and her
husband can keep his.
Can retain her maiden name for bus
iness transactions and use her hus
band's uatne for social affairs.
If wi fe does not like either her own
or husband's fam ily name they can
change to a name that does suit.
A woman can wear men's ciothtng
without any restriction except that she
must not pose as a man.
She can vote at every election.
She can hold any office in the state
and run for congress
As Kansas probably puts it, a wo
man there can do almost anything a
man can. That's so. Tbe men's cloth
ing provision even permits her to
scratch a match as some men do. Only
thing she seems debarred from is "pos
ing as a man," which is impossible, of
course, for most of them, at lea st
