Why Man Is Happier Than Woman.

From the Chicago Record-Herald.
 In an address to the Twentieth Century Club Mms. Sarah Grand author of 'The Heavenly Twins declared that men are happier than women, that they have man. aged to extract more of the juices of joy out of life. while the fair sex appears to have made speciality of drinking 'the bitter cup" In other words. according to Sarah. men have mastered the art of ban ishing worry and making themselves think they are happy. while women are still looking for bargain-counter offer ings in gloom.
 A remnant sale in. artificial grief and sorrow at g for orchestra seats will draw women by the hundreds with fresh laun- dered handkerchiefs while men rush pell mell to grab the chunks of joy and mirth that are offered at comic opera and vau- deville. While lovely wamen weeps over a tawdry imitation of the wees and frailr ties of her sex, man shskes up his liver in loud guffaws over jokes that are mill dewed but ever new. for delights his ear with the melody of sragtime, or feasts his eye upon the tinseIed raiment that par tially conceals apAtomical beauty.
 There is no quEstion about the truthful ness of Sarah Brands observations. Men

are certainly happier than women. But why? It is true that unlovely man sdh he- times resorts to the highball boosteF to get himself in good spirits. He sdrae- times drowns his care in foaming stein 1T his sorrow is very great 1t may take four or five steins to cover it. Man also treats himself occasionally to a pipe dream, or watches his troubles vanish Tn the blue smoke from a clear Havana.
 These devices for annihilating care have been denied to most women in the past Another reason for mans atiIity to Keep himself in a happier mood may be found in his simplicity of dress The follies of fashion, with it's uncomfortable. burdensome and unhygienic appareEf do not fret hi. ~oul. When he sees deli- cate wom<D holding up twenty-three pounds of trail through the city streets he can not resist the pulsations of jotund joy that sweep through his being when he reflects upon his skirtless bliss and re- members that he is bifurcated animal of the masculine. persuasion. E.
 Mime. Sarah Grand is right The frea sons for 1t are too plentiful to enumerate. One of the principal reasons why ma, is happier is because he has woman. While woman-a few of her, at Ieast-has t,oth- ing but man, sometimes a bull pup oi, the side. But woman need not be unhappy.

EnEIishman Tells OF an African Re-
gfOn Where Big Game Is rs Tame
as Park Deer.

London, June 1S.-Sir Harry Ham
iItOn Johnston, special commissioner
for the Uganda Protectorate, has re-
turned to London after an absence Of
two years. He brings stories Of
Uganda rivaling Henry H Stanley's
description OF Darkest Africa" Sir
Harry relates that the country sur
rounding MOantelgOn is totally de-
populated as a result Of inter-tribal
wars and is consequently marvelOusly
stocked with big game that are as
tame as English park deer. Zebras
and antelopes can be approached to
within ten yards and there is no sport
in killing them. Elephants and
rhinoceros are also abundant and, &C
cording to Sir Harry, lions in Ugan-
ada are too busy eating hartebeeste
to notice passing caravan The pre-
historic giraffe has been discovered
IN this country by the commissioner,
who proposes to maintain the region
referred to as a national park. He
photographed a race of ape men in
the Congo forest differing entirely
from Stanley's Pigmies and secured
photograph records of their language
and music. He says that u varieties
of rubber trees are found in this
country in ineXhaustible supply.

For the most part the land is rolling,
