WOMEN HOLD HIGH POSITION
Probably In No Country in the World
Are They Favored With Greater
Esteem Than In Servia.

There is no country in the world
where women Occupy more dignified
or honored position in the home than
in Servia. The Servian idea is quite
different from that OF the Turk, who
keeps his women behind shut DOORS
or the German, whose ideal woman is
a good hausfrau. In Servia the wom-
an Is the companion OF the man.
A man is responsible for his unmar-
ried sisters, and throughout the Bal
kan states II is considered rather a
breach OF etiquette for him to marry
before his older sister.
No servian girl would feel she could
hold up her head In society unless she
could speak four languages. There is

THE tragic history Of mankind is crowded
with civil wars The bitterest of all
strife is that of brothers. The rankest of all
hatreds is that of men who have once been
friends
''When Greek meets Greek, then comes the
tug of wars the adage which grimly
grew out of family feuds. The blind and
desperate Samson who pulled down the pill
lars of the empires of antiquity, was internal
strife 1t was SO in Assyria, so in Egypt, SO
In Persia, so in Greece, so in Rome.
There were never any reconciliations in
those old wars.
The dreadful pendulum of bloody revenge
swung back and forth, as the fortunes of
faction varied; and when peace came, hatred
was not burnt out, but smothered.
The Wars of the Roses might last for gen
erations, but when the last fight was fought,
there was no mutual recognition of honest
conviction, patriotic purpose and heroic
proves; there was no Reunion in Peace of
the Soldiers who had grappled in War.
Germany, France, Italy, Austro Hungary,
have all known their civil distractions, their
battle-felds soaked with brothers blood; but
there was never Reunion at any one of
them of the survivors of the struggle.
