MINE AND THINE
BY DOROTHY DIX
THE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER.

1t is a curious thing that a man
will, without a pang of conscience,
do TO some other woman the thing
that he will kill another man for
doing to a woman OF his own house
hold. and in that you have the whole
measure of the height and depth
and breadth and thickness of human
selfishness.
We have a poignant and tragic H.
lustration of this in those cases in
which an employer takes advantage
of his position to lead astray some
girl in his office, or business.
Sometimes the man is gray
bearded Lothario. He has daughters
of his own that he guards with jeal-
Gus care. His own girls are sur
rounded by every luxury. and set
about with every protection. They
are never allowed to run the slightest
risk. or encounter the smallest
danger
Into this mans office comes a
pretty, innocent. young girl, whom
necessity has forced out into the
world to earn her own living, and
help support others. The man begins
to offer her attentions that are in
suits. He makes her understand that
she holds her situation only by being
complacent Sometimes the girl is
of weak fiber. and after a faint strug-
gle against he temptation of good
times, and gifts. and easy hours, she
gives in and follows the line Of least
resistance. Sometimes the pressure
Of the need at home Is so great that
the girl dares not give up her Job.
Sometimes he man plays his age
NJ Snnhfotf1o -,
against the girls youth and ig-
norance, and he wins her heart only
to play with II until he wearies of
his toy and throws it away in order
to get a new one. But he does his
bastard work without apparently
ever thinking of the girl as he would
| of his own sister or daughter, with
out ever thinking OF what he would
do to some other man who was
treating his own daughter as he is
| treating this other mans sister and
daughter.
The millennium will have arrived
when men look upon woman as IL she
were their sister, when the old roue
| Is as careful to protect another man.
! daughter from temptation as he is tc
preserve his own daughters inno-
! cence, and when every employer

would have some other man treat his

| ters. If misfortune should force then
| to toll in office or factory for their
| daily bread.
In the meantime, ! would call ths
! attention of the young girls, whc
want to know why men have such
| different ideals OF conduct for theil
| own sisters and other mems sisters
| to the fact that while men anus,
themselves with the girls who hav.
been brought up on the free-and-easy

A group of young girlss have been
observing an interesting social phe-
nomena. II is the inconsistency Of
man as regards his dealings with
woman. The girls have been telling
me about 1t. They say, with wonder.
that their brothers have two codes
of conduct for girls. And these two
codes are diametrically opposite.
These girls say that their brothers
like to go about with girls who are
free and easy in manner. who will
kiss a fellow good night and let him
take little familiarities with them,
who will drink a cocktail and smoke
cigarettes, and whose mothers take
1t for granted that Mamie Sor Sadie
can take care of herself. and do not
sit up to lock the door after her
when she comes in at night
But brother does not approve OF
this conduct in his own sister. He
tells her to cut out all OF this kissing
business! That he would rather see
her dead than drinking and smoking
in public places with men. He is
always urging mother to be on the
chaperon Job, and to know the kind
of men that Mamie or Sadie go out
WITH. and to see that the girls are
! home at a proper hour. and to let
the boys know that her daughters
have somebody to take care of them.
All OF this seems very queer to
| these young girls and they naively
ask: "Why is. 1t that our brothers
encourage other mems sisters to dc
the very things they will not permit
us to do? Why do they treat other
mems sisters so differently from the
| way in which they expect their own
sisters to be treated?"
Alas, dear children, you have pu,
your innocent fingers upon the very
| blackest spot in the whole character
Of men. You have touched the heart

Mine to be held sacred and protected

into two classes. The women OF theil
