OF INTEREST TO WOMEN
THEORY AS TO WHY WOMEN SOME
TIMES WISH TO BE MEN.
Neatness a Virtue Not Always Prac-
ticed by wOmeu-The Happiest
Day-Odds and Ends.

In Harpers Magazine for July w. ID.
Howells. in commenting on the willingness
of most of us to live our lives over again,
touches on the curious phase of the question
the often-expressed desire of women to be
men:
lone hears the expression in women" he
says. g" oh, If were only man! Il should
just like to be man, oncer would give
anything to be a man.! In all honesty,
then. in as much honesty as she is
obliged to have, is not woman, when she is
thinking of living her life over again, think
ing of living a mans life? Is not she wish
ing to set an example to her husband, who
has shown himself so little able to set an
example to her. and for whose discipline
she is believed oftenest to indulge what
seems vain aspiration?
"A very strange thing in regard to this is
that men are never heard signing to be
women The weakest, the unhappiest, the
most abject of men is not known to wish
himself woman, and when he considers
living his life over again it is certainly
mans life that he has in mind. He is per-
fectly willing to allow that a woman is
much better by nature, wiser by teaching,
sweeter. lovelier gentler, and yet he does
not ask to change his lot with hers. If he
were a beggar and she queen he would
not. He is found saying, in print and out
Of it, that women have by far the safest,
easiest and pleasantest time of it; but still,
somehow. he does not envy them enough to
offer changing places with them. He will
tell them, as he has often told them, that
they are the real rulers of the world, and
that, in the sacred quality of daughter.
wife. and mother, they are the hottest beings
on earth; he bows down in worship of them,
but he leaves them their altar. He does not
think it any great thing to be man, but
he is not surprised that the objects of his
idolatry should sometimes declare them
selves eager to descend from their high
places and be men, in the dust and CRIME
of affairs, the din and heat of battle, and
the wild, useless efforts to escape from the
struggle of life. He understands that they
wish to be men in order to show men what
men ought to be, and would be If they were
women, and that they are not meaning per-
manently to be men. and he forgives to
their ignorance and fnexperience what he
could not otherwise account for. He for
gives 1T with a smile, and possibly with
chuckle."
