times he does not know she has been hurt
until the falling temperature gives him
pause. Meanwhile, she is battling with a
bruising sense Of wrong and gnawing lit
tie doubts OF his affection and a dreadful
suspicion that she Is not the woman that he
ought to have married. She longs to
clarity her perturbed soul with speech.
She recalls the Misunderstanding in their
days OF courtship which ended in such

And he has some reason. A quarrel is

The road that leads to perditien for

woman drunkard falls TO a lower depth
still. A drunken man is a thing TO fill
us with disgust. but a drunken woman Is
a sight so terrible that the most eallous
Of us could turn aside our heads with
shame and pity.
But 1t is pity filled with repulsion, that
makes good women draw their skirts away
from her. that gives men liberty to insult
her. and thar leaves us all feeling that we
would rather see a sister or daughter Of
ours dead in her coffin than with that stain
OF wine on her lips.
This should make every woman very
careful in her use OF intoxicants, for there
Is no denying the bald fact that the public
is ready, without further evidence, to credit
the worst OF any woman who is known
to be addicted to the use Of strong drinks.
Especially should girls refrain from

of the department of geography, Yale uni

through a wild and lonely region he came
to a camp of wandering sheepmen. Peer

old white-turbaned teacher ~instrueting the

prostrations of remorse. Such darkling
pleasures are not for men, They would as
lief try getting intoxicated on ipecac!
Sometimes / think their instinct In the
matter is truer and more delicate than
ours. But underneath is always the same
thing, our pathetic craving for the assur-
ance OF love. -"
Men as husbands are not so faithful as
women; they are not so tender; they do
not forgive, as women do, conduct which
disgraces them publicly; they are not so
patient with physical pain; but they have
a shining virtuei they do not nagl
1t Is not like a man to thresh out an
old injury after every grain of circum-
stance has been extracted and the fail
raises pething but dust. Nor is it like a
man to tumble into the traps OF his own
Logic and rescue himself by a burst of
temper OF a flood of tears. Men fly into
passions over trifles Just about as much
as womeni and often more violently. Their
language, for instance, in regar to over
done beefsteak frequently Is not fit for a
lady's ears. And 1t seems irrational to
be upset, as men are, by the misbehavior
Of collar buttons. Still, it may be ad-
mitted that while they fly into passions
they do not fly into the same passion
again and again. And when they forgive,
they forgive; they DO not simply take
the otfense away ana put it in cold stor-
age. ss
To DO men Justice. they are reader with
their stories OF happiness and the inered-
ible accomplishments of their wives than
with hard-iuek talesi although they do
tell them. A mar doesn't complain Of his
wife unless forced to 1t. And then he
does not complain, he merely does not
tell lies to shield her. One IL not talking
now Of the cad or the brutes or the
heroes Of the divorce courts, but Of decent
