In the next place, he points out that
the health of boys and young men
should be carefully watched, and that
every effort should be made to prevent
them from working in unhealthy places
or at unhealthy occupations.
In fine, he says that in order to at
tain the desired Improvement of the
race a start must be made at the very
beginning-even before the boys are
born.
Only in this way, he maintains can
we be assured of an increased number
of male births, and then if due pains are
taken to rear the boys under proper
sanitary conditions and to safeguard
them from harm. there is every reason
to believe that within one century the
number of young men in civilized coun-
tries will become equal to that or
young women, and that from that date
onward the number of young men will
gradually begin to exceed that of young
women.
The precise manner in which such an
Improvement would benefit women he
also clearly shows, Their chances of
getting husbands would naturally in
creased, though this good fortune would
in one way prove detrinent to their
sex, since as wives and mothers they
would not have entirely as good
chance OF long life as they would have
had by remaining single, and thus the
rate of mortality among women would
tend to increase From another point of
view this very tendency would prove
beneficial to the race, since 1t would aid
toward equallzing the number of men
and women.
Until this golden age, to which DR..
Rauber looks forward, arrives the pro-
blems of the social evil and the en-
ployment of women as wage earners
will, according to DR.. Hartmann, re-
main unsolved. He admits that many
earnest minds have been for good
while laboring to arrive at fitting so
luton of these problems, but he is clear
ly of opinion that none of the work yet
done in these directions will prove of
any permanent value.
Under the present conditions Of sod-
ETY., he points out. these evils are inevi-
table, and they will remain so until "a
higher value is set on women and this
cannot take place as long as the supply
of women Is so much In excess Of the
demand as it is at present
In the blissful future, If DR.. Rauber's
theory be correct. women will not have
to work for their living, since with few
exceptions all women will become hap
py wives and mothers, and their time
will be fully occupied in attending to
their domestic duties. In those days,
the judges in divorce courts will have
little to do, since mercenary marriages
will be questionable, and men and wo-
men will wed only because they love
each other with an abiding love. The
poorest girls will be able to find suita-
BILE husbands, and very glad the men
will be to get them as wives.
In the business world women will no
longer compete with men, and in cities
the officers of social purity societies will
find 1t necessary to turn their attention
to some other work.
In fine the world will be regenerated
when there is once more one man to one
woman, and not until then can it be re-
Such, at least, is the opin-
ion of DR. Rauber, and in view of the
close attention which he has given to
this subject his opinion is decidedly
worthy of spect.-Boston Herald.
