jugs You will say that the scenes
enacted at Saratoga this summer have
given the lie to- this, that drunken

rs drunken men. Il is sadly true
that some women, with a desire to
be brilliant before men, to be genial
and friendly, with little respect for
themselves and still less for men,
with tight dresses and loose morals,
make themselves beastlike. Much
has been said about women being
examples to men in this respect, but
if men are the head and women are
to look up to them for protection and
knowledge, then they must expect
that women will copy their doings.
When. in thus initiating, wives shall
be drunk every other night, and ev-
cry alternate night spend in the un-
hallowed embraces of some friend of
their husbands, men will begin to
open their eyes upon the terrible
wreck they are making of society to-

Women have the most thorough
contempt for a man who, on any oc
casion that offers, tries either to ca
lfess her, slide his arm around hel
waist, or kiss her after he has waited
upon her home. Such a man would
steal her virtue if he dared, and in g
