LLY DON'T like your SEX" said a
man TO me the other day.
There are a great many spIen-
did, Worthwhile women in the world,
but you must confess that you always
hear them described as unusual. But
for the most part women have four
very Objectionable weaknesses which
the other sex in general escapes. Won
Ell are petty, untruthfuI, hypOcritical
and Unreliable. You will have to con-
fess to the truth of this and, when
you have confessed, you will have to
put your sanction to my not liking
your sex"
1 should have preferred to be able
to dispute and disprOve each one Of
these allegations concerning my sex.
But unless 1, too, was willing to be
described as untruthful I could make
no sweeping assertion setting aside the
claim that women in general were
petty, untruthful, hypocriticaI and I'M
rellabale-" Of course, as this really
man said, there are eXceptiOns-the
unusual women, but isn't it pathetic
to think that any large proportion of
women should permit themselves to be
guilty of the contemplate weaknesses
of which this man and many other
thinking, philosophical men of fine
Caiber accuse our sex?
You remember the old quotation:
"Oh, woman, in our hours of ease,
Uncertain, coy and hard to please:
When pain and anguish wiring the
brow
A ministering angel thou"

Bromide But True.

So old and familiar as to be almost
brCmidic, this quotation yet carries a
truthful generalization as to the aver
age woman. In minor matters she may
be guilty of the four sins of which she
stands accused, and still, in times of
stress, noble enough to meet her occa-
sion. But, unfortunately for wolnan's
chance to prove her nobility of char
acter, life is made up of the humdrum,
the everyday, the average, and is not
composed of Occasions" And so man
is forced to judge woman, not by the
splendid way she meets trouble and
great emergencies, but by her method
of facing the wear and tear of every
day existence.
Woman shows her pettiness in envy,
in jealousy, in weak minded imitation
Of the dress and manners of those who
can afford what her station does not
justify; she exhibits it in not accept
ing the give and take of life fairly, but
in expecting her sex to save her some
Of the obligations she ought to meet as
mere human being.
She manifests her untruthfulness on
occasions so numerous that she must
blush 10 have them suggested. Look
yourself squarely in the face. Don't
you fib out Of difficulties and into
popularity Don't you exaggerate in
order to emphasize your own charm
and Importance? Don't you lie to avoid
unpleasant. obligations? Are there not

CHARCOAL BURNING
 BUSINESS PROSPEROUS
 THROUGH WAR DEMAND

York, England, July 31.-Even in the remotest villages the European war has brought the pressure of war time business, and the workman who is not occupied to the limit of his en- durance is idle from choice rather than from lack of opportunity. The charcoal burners, for instance, were never so busy at their smoky forest occupatton; they can scarcely finish the charges in their ovens fast enough for the makers of black powder. The osier beds which border hundreds of small streams in the interior of Eng land are shorn close for the first time owing to the demand for osiers to make the baskets and cases in which shells are packed for transportation to the front.
 Lumbermen and woodcutters find an unlimited demand for the stout English woods which are used to pro- vide handles for trenching tools. hatchets, levers, and ttne multifarious implements of the army engineers and service corps.
 Everywhere men are in demand, and some old industries, wel1-nigh forgot ten, are being revived. Several old lead, tin, and copper mines which were ruined when steam transit brought cheap foreign ore to England are be- ing reopened.

POSSIBILITY OF DISASTER
 IN RUSSIANS RETREAT
 IN SEEN IN ENGLAND

London. July 31-Describing the possibilities of disaster to the Rus sian armies in retiring from the War saw defensive line. the military cor respondent of the Times today says:
 Security of the while line depends on whether General Won Buelow, can be prevented from forcing passage of the sSventa, Kovno Province, on it's 40-nile front and marching on Wilma and whether. at the same time his ca.v1ary masses can be prevented from cutting the communications farther af1eId.
 "The natural course would be for Grand Duke Nicholas to reinfroce his fifth army reserves at Brest-Litovsk and end the northern menace. If he does not General Won Buelow will throw a ring around Kovno, clear to the east bank of the zNiemen, past the Tenth German army corps and estab- fish himself at Wilma and astride the Russian communications,
 The Chrinicle believes Germany will be content to allow the Rus sians to retire to a new line, mean while occupying themselves with for tifying their newly actptured posi- tions.
