Darling I S TH ER E anything more lovely than & beautiful frail woman! There is something about a frail man that is repulsive, somehow.

R o b e r t Browning , ,lu,„ found his ideal in just f|l|H|i$||P^ such a frail w om an — 1 one who' had been an inv alid all her life, and whose face from be­neath long dark curls was more frail and delicate than anything Robert Browning had ever seen. And this m an, who looked more like a cham pion w restler than a poet,. and who cer­ta in ly did not dally around as the poet at ladies teas, and whose philosophy of life it still the inspiration fo r numerous “ Browning Clubs” in A m erica to ­day, found th a t the dainty, w hite porcelain lady who is beet de­scribed as “fra il,” was the one woman whose intellect and soul could match hie own. B U T on the . other hand, I have in m ind another w om an. * She is one o f those “ BIG, SP L E N D ID , c a p a ­b l e w om en’* and she had taken her fam ily, including her husband, to the beach for the day.; N o one w ithin a radius o f a quarter, of a m ile o f them.’ could fail to note the m ilitant J L M11l1 i l l l m anner in w hich she m aneuvered that p icn ic! a D id little Johnnie venture so fa r into the w ater as to risk w etting the bottom s o f his u p - turned trousers— this w om an w hose nam e certainly w as N O T “ F railty’ - w ould m ake use o f her v oca l chords in a w ay that w ould have done credit to M adam e Tetrazzini, and Johnnie w ould hear her above the roar o f the breakers and m ake an obedient and speedy retreat. The capable lady's husband— whose countenance had the g rate­ful, if somewhat woeful, expres­sion of a lost and hungry dog who had been picked up by some w ealthy and w ell-fed p hilan­thropist, seemed to be under a hypnotic spell which held him to H h is m ighty spouse in spite of his obvious 1 shame a t ' h i s own ,im -. potency. If I had had the opportunity I w ould like to have asked the husband o f the capable lady if he thought that W om an ’s name is “ Frailty.” Biit I w as afraid I w ould be stopped by the m arshal o f the day at the picnic, should I attem pt to com e near, so I r e ­m ained m erely an interested on ­looker and forced listener to that p icn ic on the beach.
