MATERNAL INSTINCT IS ALIVE
Not Necessarily Abandoned by Women
Who Have Chosen to Pursue
Career"

We often hear that women used to
be more maternal than they are now.
The difference was that they had
larger families and were compelled to
do more work about the house, be-
cause modern household conveniences
were then wanting, asserts DR.. Mary
Kent Isham, a successful New York
physician. The fact of large family
is not necessarily an Indication that
there is much maternal feeling in the
mother. The maternal instinct is
whether they have them or not-and
who occupy themselves preferable in
ways which deal with the young.
The majority of single women and
Of women with careers do not lack the
maternal spirit and do not lack the
sex instinct, but they are wanting in
certain reckleSsness which would
enable them to accept the wrong hus-
band or go in for what has been called
"unbridled motherhood. They are
perhaps trained into too great self
control and caution. Others are too
intense and passionately maternal. to
marry. They must have whole crowds
OF children with whom to deal, like
the old woman in the shoe. The hus-
band is a secondary consideration. A
large number OF women who are en-
gagged In social service and who, for
various reasons, have been deprived
or homes OF their own, or find the
duties In their homes too limited, are
spending their generous helping of
maternal energy in larger social
field.

Gibbon mentioned "The Christians
of st. John of Basra." These are the
Sebacans, strange race that live in
the Euphrates' bed, and, besides dairy
farming, earn a livelihood by making
the one remaining mystery of metal
work in the world. They execute beau
tiful Niello designs in silver. gold and
black, and would die rather than sur
render the secret of the workmanship.
They are quiet folk. IL only because
they believe that st. John the Baptist
was the real Messiah, and worship on
ly him-and the Pole Star. They keep
their doctrine as much a secret as
their metallurgy, but certain tenets
are admitted by them which link them
not only with Christianity and Gnos-
ticism, but with Islam and Zoroastrian-
ism.

switched on all the electric lamps.
The electric light had been put in by
the Cravens; all the other fixtures in
the room were as Cazalet remembered
them. But the former son OF the house
gave himself no time to waste in senti-
mental comparisons. He tapped a pair
of mahogany doors, like those of a
wardrobe let into the wall.
