Just as we'll order our tombstones, for
we have ceased to live. We are dead
ones whether we know it or not.
n real reason that women age so
much faster than men. and why a
woman at 40 is so often an old woman.
and a man is generally still a boy. is
Just becaus women cant change their
minds, or won't change their minds.
Ihey get case hardened and mummi-
hed, while men, being more open mind
ed, are forever changing their opin-
ions, n so using new brain cells. and
having their youth renewed in them.
Another pertinent illustration of n
woman's inability to change her mind
is shown in what we call the faithful
ness of oma 1t has always been n
matter of wonder to us that a woman
could go on loving a man who treated
her like a brute. who dragged her
down into the gutter with him, and
who beat and bruised her physically
and spiritually.
Professor Munsterburg's theory eX-
plains this phenomenon of devotion.
1t is simply the result of woman's in
ability to change her mind. Having
once had the indelible record of a
mans charm made upon her, she goes
on to the end of the chapter seeing
him as h first saw him, beholding
the handsome face of her young lover
instead of the bloated and swollen and
d~tsfigured countenance of her husband,
still hearing the echo of his passionate
love vows that drown out the sound Of
his later abuses and curses.
Certain 1t is that a woman is ro-
mantle as long as she lives, and can
still be a bride at heart after she has
been married forty years, while a
mans romance never survives the
honeymoon, and he ceases to be a
bridegroom at the altar.
And this can only. be accounted for
on the ground that the average woman
never gets a new point of view, where
as the average man is always shifting
his, and seeing thinges not as he re-
membered them, but as they are.
Professor Munsterburg's theory
seems to have all the facts to back 1t
up, but in taking away woman's right
to change her mind he is depriving
her of her last privilege.

But when she's agreed with every

WITH SQUARE OR HIGH NECK. SHORT

TUCKS AND SASH AT WAIST LINE.
There is no prettier style of dress for
little children than this one. For the very
tiny ones, it can be worn without the sash,
hanging free from the shoulders, and, when
four and six years are reached, it can be
belted as shown on the figure. White is
always the prettiest and daintiest color
for the little folk and this frock of white
handkerchief linen with hand sewed tucks
and embroidery is very charming but
there are various colored fabrics that are
worn this season. Dresden lawns and
batistes are liked for morning occasions.
Some of the dimities are very pretty and
childlike in effect and white means many
fabrics and many qualities. The tucks
at the long waist line forming bands under
which the sash is passed are unquestion-
ably pretty but, If the belt effect is liked
and something palmer is wanted, the belt
or sash can be passed over the frock in
place of through the slashes. Again
the lower edge of the dress is straight
so that founcing could be utilized and
~touncing always means a dressy frock
with very little labor.
