of strips OF the same skin hanging down

L There is pleasant fiction about the ideal
woman that invests her with an unreal and
intangible presence as il she were the crea-
tion of some higher sphere, borrowed into
this mundane life for transitory, charmed
existence. To this end poets chan hel
praise in immortal verse sculptors give bel
fame ip lifelike marble artists work then
souls into the canvas on which they recreate
her, and the highest skill Of the civilized
world is evoked in costly laces and the
fabrics coat will add to her loveliness, TIC
this is added a mysterious charm Of weak.
ness, dependence as if this beautiful pink
and white doll were puppet, to be moved
only at an owners will, or dainty keep
sake, to be guarded under a glass case OF
conservative possessions. The weakness OF
women is e favorite theme with men who
are not thoroughly conscious of their own
strength. They turn contemptously from
the advice Of wife or sister, aud keep all
their business and plans to themselves,
until crash comes. Then they settle back
ON that weakness to help bear the burden,
and even condescend TO listen to some plans
for the future and receive sympathy and
help from those weak members of the
family, who work all day and lie awake all
night thinking, planning and helping,
while the strong man breaks dowu. There
Is no indication of weakness then. Some
one has truly said that woman's instinct
10 better than mans reasou and when
she sees her dear ones threatened with dis
aster she knows no weakness, but comes up
with all her colors flying, 1t is her nature
to "suffer and be strong ~ to tire herself
With much serving to give largely cut of
the great income of love. There is q
strength of far greater value than that of
bone and muscle, Or eveniof brain it is the
streugth of woman's love, which will sur
vive shame, sorrow, neglect and death for
she will leave it as legacy her children.
The weakness in the heroism that brightens
the pages of history and the hearth of the
humblest home, and will outlast the mental
force and physical caliber of the strongest
man. Circumstances have made it neces-
sary to hedge women with thousand con-
ventionalities. They do not prove her
weakness or the need of barriers, for she
can overleap them all il one she loves ID on
the other side and sends up a cry for help /;
but it would be well for her die her duties
lie serenely within their circumscribed
limits. Ths world Is fuII OF cheap protec-
tion for women, which does not tighten one.
