One of the most brilliant of England's "women writers (Mrs F. A. Steele) has recently been vraxing caustically oloquent on the sulijfct of ''Ladies' Papers" as she finds them in England. Studying thesp sheets, she says, she was forced to the conclusion that clothes, eookerv and sentimental correspondence are. the chief objects of woman's interest. Whereupon "T.TVs Weekly" remarks that, though the indictment makes one pause and liiiT>k. the question naturally arises. Ja Mrs Steele quiie fair? la she wholly just to the women of whim she writes? The fair s»x. it is pointed out, are not confined to the papers written for them. Because a few sheets are devoted to the n;l! of dress, s n °d looks and sentimentalism, there is no proof at all that women feed on this pabulum only.
