WOMAN rs SUPERIOR.
So Says French Lecturer When Dis
cussing Our Social Development.
ThinIss Thnt the Chances for Mntri-
monty Are Lessened by the Higher
Education of the American
women

Women IL the United States, through
higher education, have reached d plane
Of intellectual and social superiority
above the men, and thereby have
brought about condition in which
they have 10 look 10 each other for
intellectual companionship, according
SO Hughes lie Roux, the French lee
turer and author, who delivered the
first Of series of lectures at the Uni
yersity Of Chicago the other after
noon. For this reason, he says, they
have lessened their chances for we'd
ded bliss because the men stand in awe
Of their superiority.
NJ lie Roux started to lecture on
~The Social Condition of the Women
of Northern France as Painted by
Froubert" While speaking Of the
women Of bis own country he gave his
opinion Of those of America.
.Your country" be said, lis now in
She second stage Of its educational and
social development, That is, your
women are now the intellectual and
social superiors Of their male associ-
stes. They are aristocrats. while the
men are democrats. In Frame the
men and the women are upon the same
plane. They are all democrats"
Then came the settlement that the
women are TOO superior for the men
10 marry at is because the women
are so far superior 10 the men socially
that the npnber IL marriages IS
becoming smaller" he declared "The
women are better educated tllan the
men and they devote re ti.pe TO he
coming cultured. Becoming so they
need thing witty tie men do not
feel they can afford 10 give them. A
wife becomes luxury to the wage
earning American. Her cultivated
tastes cost more money than he feels
he can spend. The result Of that is
that the men join clubs and seek the
company of their fellows. The women
club by themselves. a woman is a
Kind Of queen in this generation and
a man can hope to he nothing more
than her prince consort"
After telling Of the deficiencies Of
She men Of this country NJ. lie Roux
proceeded to tell Of the happy eondi-
tions that prevail in France France
i. an aristocratic country" he de-
Tiared. sour men and our women are
equally well educated and have the
same social opportunities. II is be-
cause of this fact that France is SUI
perior from the intellectual stand
point to Germany. which is demo-
cratic country. although the form of
<overnment is monarttieal."

PROMISING YOUNG MAN.
Earl of Lytton Attracts Attention by
His Speech secondinE King Ed
wards Address.

If there is anything in heredity, a
young man who has just come into
public notice for the first time ought
to do something worth while. He is
the earl of Lytton, who was selected
for the heavy function of seconding
the kings address at the recent open
ing of the house'of lords.
As the mover and seconder of the
address from the throne is not eX-
pected to say anything in particular,
it has been the custom to choose, for
the seconder Of the address at least,
some young legislator who has not

ventured previously to open his
mouth. The resulting speeches are
not ordinarily brilliant. but on this
occasion the youthful earl really did
well. at is my deliberate judgment"
said Lord Rosebery in the house of
lords afterward, ''hsving heard many
movers and seconders Of addresses in
this house. that his speech stands out
as by far the best that has ever been
delivered in my hearing on such an oc-
casion." Coming from the finest ora
tor among the peers, that was praise
worth having.
The earl, who is only 20 years old.
is the son of Owen Meredith, whose

of its day, and grandson of Bulwer
Iytton, the novelist-statesman who
was made a baron for his work as an
ambassador. The second Bulwer Lyt'
ton. who was made an earl, died few
years ago. The present earl was born
in India, and is "a handsome, modest
fellow, who has not yet followed his

In recent lecture on first aid to the
injured the speaker emphasized two
cautions that are SO commonly disre-
gardcd as to bc we'll worth repeating
In print. The first IS, never rub n per
son with linmcnt that has been put
on a flannel cloth, for the roughncss Of
the flannel and the friction on the
skin, with the penetrating ingredients
of the linimcnt, will easily make an
abrasion Of the skin, producing n con
dition that may take weeks TO heal
Tho second warning is that in any con
dition of uncOnsciOuSuCss the hot OBJ
jcct applied bag, bottle, brick or what
ever it may he, must be wrapped in
flannel or cloth before it is brought
into contact with the flesh Of the por-
son To be treated. 4 severe burn is
often made by a thoughtlcss attendant
who puts a too hot water bottle next
to the skin while the patient is uncon
sciOus or unable to move away.

impossible for the management to

capitalists were called upon to con
tribute additional funds for the con
