looked forward to this with great

He didn't need the drug, however.

matte world; who attain positions of
prominence in philanthropic, educa-
tional, or reform organization, or who
are possessed of any special ability or
knowledge.
In the conservative countries mar
riage is all important to woman and
of secondary interest to a man. The
stories end with the wedding Of the
heroine, for 1t settles her career. She
is now merged in her husband and no
more is expected or heard of her,
Meanwhile the man pursues the even
tenor of his way, his marriage being
but a more or less important incident
But the American woman's growth
of interests outside of marriage has
increased the Importance of marriage
to men. The more developed woman
of the United States touches her hus-
bands nature at many points and fills
larger place in his life. He discusses
public affairs with her, confides in. her
, the details of his business, asks her
| opinion, and frequently follows her
advice. In matters of common inter
estT-her wishes carry equal weight
with his. In brief, the American wife
holds a position in the respect as well
as the affection OF her husband that
makes the American man proverbial
matrimonial prize.
OF course, all American women are
not free, respected and happy. There
are wives in the United States who
are bullied and bossed, treated with
contempt, beaten and even murdered.
But in these also are many instances
where, so far from the wife obeying,
the opposite extreme almost holds
true. There are many American hus-
bands who, instead of exacting self
sacrifice of their wives, yield 1t to the
fullest measure, men who make
fetch of their wives wishes ana
work increasingly and uncomplain-
ingly to crafty even their whims
And the every day American nus
band recognizes his wife as
nerson with tastes, desires, ambi
| lions and interests Vi Hol ""h' "-N
