In an article on the "Ideals of Femi-
nine Usefulness" in the Fortnightly
Review, Edith Seincox considers the
lives of those two ph1lanthropic English
women, Dorothy Pattison (Sister Dora)
and Mary Carpenter. In the course Of
the article she touches upon point
which has probably occasioned not a
little thought to all those interested in
the lives of women of special careers.
She says: "We are tempted to ask
whether this (happily elastic) theory of
the 'womanly sphere is in any way an
swerable for the undercurrent of melan-
choly common to the lives of two women
as strong, as different, and as sue
cessful as Dorothy Pattison and Mary
Carpenter. Both were thoroughly sanein
body and mind, with well-proportioned,
equally developed natures, free from any
morbid leanings and both found their
way at last to the work for which they
were sypremely fitted. And yet, rever-
enced, ,adored and valued as the memory
of each and the work of both must be, it
is certain that most old-fashioned believ-
ers in the 'womanly sphere will turn
from the two memoirs with a compass
sionate sigh: Poor thing! they would
have been happier married and with a
pack of children Clearly it is more i'm
portaut the Bristol ragamufins should be
reclaimed, and the jails of Bonn
bay and Montreal reformed, than
that one more Nonconforinist minis
ter should have an exemplary wife;
it is more important that as many as
are sick or sorry in Staffordshire should
have Dora for their sister than that she
should be happy lif she could) in bright
ening q single home. But the very ques-
ton that we wish to raise is beggared by
this way Of stating the alternative. It
is not in sane human nature to feel per-
manent regret because things mutually
exclusive can not be possessed together.
Women as well as men can find genuine
happiness in the best possible life; they
are not condemned by nature to spend
strength in yearning after some compo-
site impossibility; and it may be thai if
our two sane and sensible heroines fail to
find content in the best possibilities open
to themselves, the fault may lie not with
them but in the arbitrary external limits
of the possibility" ~
