THE zOLAIsrIC VIEW.

The mighty Zolaistie Movement now
Engrusses us--a miasmatic breath
Blown from the slurns. We paint life as it is,
The hideous side of it, with careful pains,
Making god of the duh commonplace,
For have we not the old gods overthrown
And set up strangest idols? We would clip
Imagination wings and kill delight,
Our sole art being to leave nothing out
That renders art offensive. Not for us
Madonnas leaning from their starry thrones
Ineffdble. nor any heaven wrought dream
D. sculptor or of poet: we prefer
Such nightmare visions as in morbid brains
Take shape and substance, thoughts that faint
the air
And make all life unloyely. Will it LAST

ARE THE MEN AFRAID.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox ON !" why Girls Dc
Not Marry"
Ella Wheeler Wilcox,

Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
In q recent number of the NortA 44meri-
cen Rcrieic Mrs. Kate Gannett Wells pro-
ceeds to give some reasons why girls do
not marry. She tells US that they read
lola and Tolstoi and medical works, and
learn TO fear men and marriage; that they
enter professions and earn financial indie
pendence, and feel no need of life partners,
whom they might possibly have to sup
port, and that they talk with their mothers,
and find out how many lonely moments
she has passed in her married life. and they
dread similar experiences, and decide that
single life is preferable.
In discussing this article, which has
caused great deal of comment, l would
say that, in the first place, the statement
is wrong.
Girls do not marry as young as they did
in the days of our grandmothers, but they
eventually marry as frequently as in any
former period of history, and the per-
centage ofhopeless spinsters is no greater
than il ever was
In our large cities there is an evidently
increasing reluctance on the part of men
to assume the responsibilities of married
life.
