Perhaps IL wss. Women have 10 Law
aside sometimes a good deal of super
nuous nonsense and weakness.
Ihe truth Is. the idea of women hay-
ing SO much more sensibilitv than men
Ism a 90 "a working hypothesis. Ii don't
work at all when yoa take boy and girl
anu put them before n room full Of p~o-
Pie. The boy bushes, stammers. trims
over his own feet and wants 10 dive into
side room. Bu. the g,il stands UP To

any manager.
Women saye no fears of an audience,
and they are ten umss harder to guy
than men.
For tas average man and woman COM
mend ne To horsscar. Did yoa ever
see the Irish boarding house keeper GO,
on q Ihird avenue car on Sltardsy with
ner husband! She been 10 Washington
Market. and abe has bought two hams,
string Of founders anu a aaske. OF
onions.
She takes seal between brocaie and
broadclota AID plants her hams-I mean
the Washington Market haTns--besiae
her on tho seat.
Now watch the little husband,
IL annoys him. lie knows that every
body IN the car is annoyed, and he SAYS
apologesically:
Lave HE; Ii! take thea beyant the |
doore, on tie PLATFORM"
What for!' SAYS the ma.rou, bri- |
ding instantly. They're hahrmin' no |
oneg'
Then he is sGueichsl, and, unable 10 |
face the sentiment of the car, goss out |
and talks TO tho driver.
wheIs did that poor mechanic get his |
If wasn't woman | wouldn't dar.
to say all this. Men never do. Why.
THEY'RE too magIanimous.
Did you ever go to a police courtl
l suppose not. Well, 20 there If Won
want TO study the sexes.
There Is popular notion that all the |
abused wives reiuse Ia appear agl,n5; |
their husbands when the husbands are /
arrested; that they forgive them aud |
lake them lack with tears, TO be beaten
over again.
WAC gets up the idea?
Men. Newspaper men. Suppose Won
ask some of tae newspaper women
about it.
They will tell you, if you can get them
IN candid vein, that, as rule, these
women only love men who abuse them.
They have dull way of worsllip,ns
power when they don't and can't wor-
ship anything else.
Whipping posts arc mons invention,
not wamens. Ii the women-that is,
ting intelligent women-had their way,
they'd have spanking posts put up along
side of them.
Co-punlsbment ought to go hand in
hand with co education.
Why do talk this way about my sexf |
Because my sex wants little wholesome |
tru b told. 1t will do 'em good. That's |
why.
because if women are going to enter !
mems fleldS, land they are) they ought
to have one or two OF the manly virtues |
IN addition to their own; and magnan- |
unity. as distinguished from virtue, is |
one Ut them; and horse sense, as opposed |
to sentlmentality, is another.
DIR. DIX knows what he 8 talking about. |
So do l.

respect for women than the fellows who

them behind their backs.
What the women of America want n |
more backbone and less morbid vanity; !
more pride of sex and less pride of per-
son; more common sense and less dry
goods; and. above all, a higher, broader |
knowledge that there are other people in |
existence beside themselves.
If any Of them wrIte you saucy letters |
about me, publish them, and will be on |
