said he. 1.-THE idea of world full of
wretchedness bewilders you so that you
| cannot as much as sigh over it. But
| you will cry yourself to death over any
fseckle-faced. red-headed urchin that
happens to bring his misery before your
eyes. You work yourself into a passion
at the sight of mans injustice to one
dumb animal, but you are unable to feel
any concern for the millions OF
reasoning animals suffering the
injustice of social institutions.
The feminine mind deals only with par
ticulars, and has no sympathy with
mans mind, which occupies itself with
things i'll general"
Probably you are right about this.
Romney. You're a man, and If you
should be wrong. it is not in the pre-
sumption of woman to contradict you.
Ii we are not fools, we are so near to it
that we have been marrying you right
along from the time Eve tied herself to
Adam down to the present day. Our
mental vision has an unfortunate habit
of discerning small things. We find
virtues in you
EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE,
if we do fail to take in solar systems
with one comprehensive wink. Our
idea of world is vague, or we wouldn't
give 1t the shape of man and believe
the sky must have fallen when it gets
on its feet and walks off from US. Our
interest in the accidental is deformity,
or we would not float your soul to
heaven in our tears and inscribe our
selves sacred to His Memory when
you die. But what are you that you
should flop your wings and crow
at us? 1t is just about as

just about as bad, now, isn't it? When
you kill twenty-five men in the vain at
tempt to secure the life of a couple of
million, it would have been pretty near
as well for you, and a great deal more
to his taste, if you had protected one of
the twenty-five you killed. Your efforts
on behalf of the universal keep individ-
ualS in uncOmfOrtably close cOmmunica-
ton with worms. While you are strug-
Cling to lift up the world there's man
under your feet who would be obliged
and step off. Don't say word about
our blindness to the abstract. You are
perfect bat when it comes to particu-
lar instances. Yes, you are; you classify
your multitudes and never bit of
an eye have you for exceptions
that your rules do not include.
In your universal museum you have
put women all on one shelf and neatly
labeled them, vain, gullible, IRA
specimens should have special classifi-
cation never enters your head. A
woman
WITH NORMAL VANITY,
a woman who chokeS at some gnats and
all camelS, a woman who believes the
earth moves despite what you say to the
contrary, woman who does not make
arrangements to be born to secure the
privilege of getting married-you
couldn't see her if your hand held her
by the shoulder; and if your eyes were
to know what under the sun
is it. Yes, you would; don't
tell anybody she lies when she
| can prove what she says. A few weeks
| ago the wonderful success of a young
woman who speculateS in st. Paul was
given to the public. Her name in full
and the approximate figure of her gains
| were published in the GLOBE and sub
sequently copied into Eastern papers.
The fortune she has amassed by her
| own unaided efforts was estimated be-
tween 100000 and S150,000. But that a
woman could make this amount of
| money, and being woman, be any,
| thing different from the vain, gullible.
irrational, marriageable creature that
| typifies the sex, is beyond the grasp of
| the universal masculine intellect, if let
| tiers lately received by the young lady
go for anything. Listen! they speak
| for themselves.
