consc iouSness of great service TO the state.
The speech Of woman, il seems, is the

That is what makes the chatter OF
oman so important. II is much more
important than the most beautiful poems
ana the most profound philosophy. The
child who has been raised by a talkativo
woman develops speech and consciousness
rapidly. while the same child under the
care OF n taciturn man. would develop
