WHY WOMEN ARE MORE
HARD-HEARTED THAN MEN

Women" declared Lord Selborne,
ARE harder-hearted than men," To
this statement many noted psychia-
trists and other students of human
nature have heartily agreed, and
they also agree in declaring this is
because men are naturally more emo
tional than women.
1t is only by centuries of constant
training and hard fighting that men
have acquired the power of suppress
ing their emotions as well as they do.
Mans natural desire is to burst into
tears with far greater frequency than
woman, and it has been solemnly
ayerred that mans natural place is
the home.
This, declare those who have made
study of it. has nothing whatever
to do with any question of equal suf-
frage. But the fact remains that
women are less emotional than men,
I that they can face crisis better than
men, that they possess more native
presence of mind and consequently
should be the bread winners.
The old-established belief that wo-
men are more emotional than men is
| fallacy; men are still more inclined
TO shrek and become hysterical dur
| ing exciting and trying times than
are women 1t is mistaken idea
that woman loses her head in trying
times, in emotional crises, sudden
emergencies, sudden illness or real
danger, for at just such times as
these is it that woman really shines.
1t is the mother who will assist
in dangerous operation on her chill
dren, while the father weakens and
cannot bear the sight of it. This is
because man is more emotional and
also more tender-hearted than wo-
man.
In many things man lacks the nat
ural instructive presence of mind
| WHICH HOIudn pOSSGSS6S. IL Iu6 truth
were actually told the majority of
men would confess that their emo
tons are more susceptible, more cas-
lily moved, than those of their wives.
Mems GOODNESS and apparent noncha-
lance on exciting occasions is only
surface deep. Inwardly he is trem-
bling with nervousness and emotional
fear. In the days of executions, le-
gal and by religious and political
fanatics, it has always been the men
who collapsed at the last moment
and the women who went to their
death unfinchingly. In time of great
danger the majority of women appear
self-possessed, calm and alert.
This, the experts declare, is be-
cause woman is less emotional than
man and that she is harder-hearted
than man She does not feel so
deeply as a man, nor is she so sus-
ceptible to the influence of other peo-
pie.

Elimination of the Fire Limits.

The fire limits as laid down by the
Building Code in it's application to Al
giers was such a handicap on a large
number OF residents and property own
ers and quite unsuitable to the CIR
eumstances; it included a large area
now occupied by frame residences ana
o,her buildings not in any way calling
tor. or warranting, costly fireproof
construction. The most objectionaDle
feature of the code was the effect II
would have in case of fire which
would destroy a building or even dam
age il to the extent of go per cent Oh
It's value.
This effect would practically prevent
the repair or rebuilding OF almost all
such buildings, for in very large ma
;ority of cases the cost of new hre-

high to permit of a reasonable re'e-
