deceitful. The use of her weapon has come in the same way that a man has used his sword or his fists, because neither the man nor the woman has known of better and more effective way. They are both learning this bet ter way now and that is the reason they are becoming such good friends. It is because nowadays men are beginning to say to her as they formerly did only to each other, Come iet us reason TO- gether."
 There can be no friendship where there is no reasoning together and it is only comparatively recently that men seem to have discovered that their old belief in womens instinct and intuition is a lot of nonsense Women have always reasoned, but they did not dare to let the men know itl
 But these things are passing away, and 1t is because of their passing that men and women are becoming more friendly; also it is for this very reason that women are becoming more friendly with each other Surely, admitted my friend, it is only within very recent years that women have felt inclined to culti- vate deep friendship with women-that is, as a rule, for, of course, there have all ways been the exceptions Many still preference Is absolutely natural and women, but let us remember that there are men Who prefer the Iflendsnp or women to that of other men, and such a preefrence is absolutely natural and makes for better understanding be- tween the sexes. Still the fact that in these days there are numbers of women who can be loyal to one another is one of the most encouraging signs of prog ress. There can be friendships now be- tween women because every woman is not making it her one object in life to find a husband to support her. Single women, therefore, do not regard every other single woman as a rival or a com petitor who may snatch away her "job." This attitude made women in the past suspicious of each other, but with the modern independence of women we are seeing an end of much of the jealousy that is enormously supposed to be a part of love, and the beginning of many simple mater-of-faet friendships instead.
