What is called "Good Society" now demands that when a girl marries she must cease all work, save for her husband alone. Her life no longer belongs to the world nor to herself; she is the property of her husband.

That which a married woman earns or produces belongs not to herself. but to her husband. In most cities there are now regulations prohibiting women from teaching school. Many years may have been spent in preparation, and the experience the woman has acquired may be most valuable; but as soon as she is married she is relegated to looking after her own individual home, incarcerated in a kitchen, and a person less fit is put in her place, with the result that school teaching in America is often given up to the callow, the incompetent, the inexperienced and the unfit. The exaggerated value that we place upon the individual home is largely an account of the opportunities its offers for Conspicuous Leisure and Conspicuous Waste.

It is quite true that not all the waste is conspicuous. Kitchen and laundry work, for instance, are to a great extent drudgery in small households; but in a community life these things are taken care of in turn, and by those who specialize on them, at a cost of one-fourth the effort which prevails in individual houses. There are machines now for washing clothes, drying and ironing them, and machines for washing dishes, all of which can be easily operated in communities, but which it is impossible to utilize in individual households. In the individual home, drudgery must prevail. The good housekeeper is a slave to her household, and her unremitting drudgery gives to her but little time and small inclination for mental improvement.

But the fact that the Conspicuous Waste and Conspicuous Leisure of the home are largely fictitious and futile, is no special disadvantage to a society that places a premium on pretense. It adds a kind of general piquancy to the idea, and surely shocks nobody--so accustomed are we to hypocrisy. WOMEN AND INSURANCE. A great life insurance company, whose actuaries have more than a' national reputation for soundness of reasoning, hag recently given its agents some instructions on insuring the lives of women. I quote: "Whereas, this company has not heretofore thought best to insure the lives of women, it is now acceptable for you to secure applications for policies from women as follows: "1.

Accept applications only from women in business or from wageearning women who have people dependent on them. "2. Do not. accept married women, or women with an income that is not derived from their own property." From this I assume that these hardheaded actuaries who absolutery, eliminate gallantry, poetry and sentiment from their calculations, regard married women and women who have things provided for them as uncertain propositions to insure. Wage-earning women are reasonably happy.

Steady, systematic work means health. The competent man or woman is a good moral and financial risk. A married woman may be competent or she may not. She may be happy or she may not. It is quite unnecessary to question her along these lines--she will not tell the truth about them, and it is exactly the same with a woman who lives on the bounty provided by either a live man or a dead one.

Four-fifths of all surgical cases in public hospitals are performed on women. But of wage-earning, wealth-producing women, no more go to hospitals, proportionately, than do men It is men who take the physical risks of the world--it is men who operate railroads, tunnel mountains, sail ships, mine the ores and erect buildings that scrape the sky. Yet, in spite of this fact, the insurance actuaries much prefer to insure men who are abroad in the world doing things than to accept risks on women who abide in the safety of the home and are protected and shielded on every side. From this there is only one conclusion, and that is, that to be married and keep house, and to have an income and do nothing, are hazardous undertakings. It is not the dangers of childbirth that make women a bad risk--it 1s the paucity of their lives.

If it were the dangers of motherhood, the A MARVELOUS YOUNG PIANIST WHAT THE EUROPEAN PRESS SAYS OF OLGA STEEB, WHO WILL BE HEARD IN THIS CITY. We give below a few of the many testimonials of the European press to the remarkable ability of Olga Steeb, who will play for us next Thursday night: Die Wahrheit, talentea, very promising young pianist is the American, Olga Steeb, who gave an effective production of a very extensive, many sided program. Already the possessor of a superior technical knowledge, she appeals to the public by her highly developed musical qualities, as also by her fascinating and modest demeanor." Das Reich, also met a clever young piano virtuoso in whom one may really take great pleasure! Olga Steeb is a very gifted and promising American woman. She, to be sure, played Beethoven's "Appassionata" (Opus 57) too much as virtuoso piece and the Presto SO rapidly, that only a trained ear was able to follow her. She made a very pleasing impression by her demeanor, being neither impertinent nor selfconscious." Berliner Boersen Courier, talented, especially regarding the technic of her instrument, is the pianist Olga Steeb, who gave a succussful concert in Beethoven-Saal.

Her execution of the Liszt compositions especially proved her to be a pianist who even today, although still very young, has great ability and reliableness. The concert given earned the most enthusiastic applause." Die Post, large audience, which greeted Olga Steeb, showed the tremendous interest which the public takes in this highly gifted young pianist. In the Chopin tone poems, Liszt compositions, and also Schumann's "Papillons," she was really most excellent in expression, although here and there taking some liberties with the rhythm."

As one of the speakers remarked: "There was never a dull moment," Thusday evening at the meeting of the East Santa Cruz Social and Improvement Club, held in the parlors of the Pennsylvania Av. M.

E. Church. The program was under the direction of Mrs. A. B.

Cass, chairman of the ladies' division, and was as follows: Chorus Ethel Trumbly, Florence surance companies would not refuse women over fifty, but married women and those unmarried, who are provided for, are placed in the same category. The real fact is, few women are admitted into the work of the world. Woman is the slave of her housekeeping--the slave of a man. Hence the misery that leads to the ethercone, the ligature and the scapel. And that is the reason why life insurance companies, as a rule, will not insure the lives of married women.

The average married woman has no high purpose in life--no output for her ambition, no rock upon which she can strike her intellect and cause the welling waters of life to flow. She has tasted of life and found it alkaline--all there is for her now is submission. She is a passive party. So the insurance actuary, viewing the average married woman with his cold, calculating, financial eye, declares here a hazardous risk, and passes her up. Give woman the ballot!

It is understood that the preliminary steps have been taken toward the absorption of a number of small independent companies in the Western and Northwestern States, with the ultimate idea of consolidating the great companies that operate from Minnesota to California.
