THE death of Queen Victoria marks
an epoch, though in fact she had very
little to do with the epoch. She was a
very good, well minded old lady, per
haps as good, though not half as bright
as Josiah Aliens wife, Practically she
had little more to do with the great
stream and current of events, This is
quite we'll shown by the fact that she
used all her power to get a settlement
and call off the war in South Africa. 1t
is very evident that this slaughter the
worry and responsibility of it, hastcned
her death, Thus do the promoters of
that war find that their injustice and
outrage has passed up sorrow TO those
to whom they did not mean it should
come. Nearly everyone in America
will think of Victoria as a very good but
very common old lady.

The Life of Woman,

If there are all kinds of men in the
world there are perhaps more kinds Of
women. And yet averaged up together
they will average more alike, There
is probably on an average less indivdu.
ality among women than among men,
And why? Because fher surroundings
and mental environments. Because for
her there are so many mental limita-
tions, The average woman, though she
may have naturally active intellect,
though she may read and think, she
really knows little Of life because, shut
up in her home, especially if it be in the
country on farm, she sees little of it.
We do not speak of the chronic CAD
about She is hardly an average wo-
man. While she is not shut up at home
she is in no way superior to those who
stay at home because when she goes
she is too intent on telling some one
about someone's scandalously improper
hat to see anything Of the world she is
moving in.
A woman suggested to the writer the
other day thatin estimating the greatness
and prestige of Kansas two things are
considered, the financial resources, and
the high intelligence Of the people or
the opinions of the men. In neither of
these places is woman rated, Her opin-
ions are not counted and she has no
market value. She is not rated as a
commercial asset nor as an intellectual
factor.
At the rate at which we are educating
our girls, especially in the cities where
they have access TO high schools, she
surely should be able to get rating Of
some sort. But the high school girl
works a few years as clerk or an am
anuenss, marres and raises a family
and performs thereby her highest obli-
cation, but she has little to do with con-
trolling or developing the intellectual
life of the community. Perhaps she be-
