Femlninl.y Versus Philosophy.

Herbert Spencer said recently of a
woman who had died early in life. after
the production of some remarkable
essays on induction" and "Dcduc-
ton that mental powers SO highly
developed in Il woman are abnormal
and involved n physiological cost that
the feminine organization cannot bear
without injury more or less profound"
To which Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton
replies that Darwin was an invalid all
his days, and that Mr.. Sponcer's own
health is not all that could be desired
or his physical being as rugged MS it
would have been if he had devoted
his life to simple care and toll. Mrs.
Stanton mentions among women writ
crs that have lived healthy lives and
died at q good old age, after doing
much thinking and Il good deal Of
hard work, Caroline Herschel, Maria
Mitchell, George Eliot, George Sand,
Harriet Martineau, and Frances
Power Cobbci and she concludes her
argument with: 81 doubt whether as
many womcn die annually from writ
ing essays on Induction and 'Deduc-
ton rs from ovcrproduction of n FAM

raised on the housetops where mothers

A Busy Man.

Although women have few rights"
In France, as the word is generally
used, and do not participate in govern
ment in any direct way, they possess
in that country certain privileges which
are unusual in America. Among the
tradespeople the wife, instead of being
entirely apart from her husbands
business. very often exercises a con
trolling influence over it.
Sometimes, among The lower classes,
the French wife finds it necessary to
chastise her husband in order to keep
him rigidly to his duties.
Not long ago a party of Americans
were travelling in a steamer on one of
the French rivers. They arrived at a
lock, which was closed, nor was there
any visible sign of the lock-keeper.
Behind a bunch of trees near by rose
the chimney of n cottage and from be-
hind the same tuft of foliage came the
sound of a series OF liowls aud groaus.
"Where is the lock-kceper?" some
one asked of tile captain of the steamer.
"Oh. he'll be here presently" an-
swered the captain, calmly. "He can't
come just now; he's busy. His wife

THE Man Of Iron," otherwise "Giles
the WHARF" was II OF the persons put
to death during the witchcraft persecu-
tions at Salem, Mass. His real name was
Giles Corey and Mt the time of his awful
death he was an old man past 50. When
accused of being q "wizard'' (which the
Salem lunatics seem to have considered
the masculine of "witch") no calmly met
their charges and coolly informed them
that he would die rather than admit that
he had ever had communion with evil
spirits. He was put to the peinc forte ct
dure death by pressure with huge
weights), his fortitude during his dying
moments winning for him the title used
in the first line.
