Iound III the 1act that man Is the pro-
tector OF woman, but rather III the fact
that ne Is the admlrer OF woman.
The bond OF admiration IS that which
makes the first union between the lovers.
The tlrst glance OF admiration that passes
from the eye o1 the man to the Io7llness
Oh woman may pe compared 10 that flrst
Wlre tha1 was cast nom Shore 10 shofe'
thln wire hardly visible, and then around
this other wires We're woven, until at last
strong cable was formed to which the |
bridge was attached, which the people of !
either shore would pass over and meet |
each other In unbroken communication. |
If the bond of admiration is thus be- |
gun, it makes the first connection that |
leads to wedlock; then it IS plain why it |
is proper for man and not for woman to |
propose the union. For admiration, to |
be genuine, must not be asked for; it |
must come spontaneously. The woman |
might go to her protector and say, Pro
tect me-, but she cannot 90 to her adj
mirer and say, Admire me. As in pol
tics. it Is the rule that the man must
seek the office and not the office the
man, so it is true of woman's admiration,
that it must not seek. but be sought.
"There is this distinction between the
love that man bears to woman and that
which woman bears to man: The one is
founded on the admiration of loveliness,
and the other on the recognition of
strength. 1t IS not beauty. it is strength
in the man that works upon the admira-
tiOn of woman and protects her life.
mean not only 5he physical strength
mean the strength expressed upward,

''Ihe great original philosophical ideas
were given to the world by mans genius
not wOman's. The great discoveries
in science, too, were given to the world
by man. In the domain of art men are
the leaders, and the thousands of me-
chanical inventions were produced by
men. There IS hardly single mechanl-
cal invention Tor which we are indebted
to woman's inventive power L am very |
well aware how forcible the objection IS
when these points are quoted. How
earnest women Will say: We'll, we have |
never had a chance And right they |
are in saying it.
Woman has already displayed gifts
and endoWments which NJ her 10 take
