in the worlds work with man. But
most men are not so constituted. A
man wants to feel that HIS woman
belongs solely to HIM. And the salts
faction he gets out of believing that
she is dependent upon him goes a
long way with him. Men as whole
are not modern" They don't really
believe in sex equality. They prefer
the clinging type of woman; the type
that wants to be loved, protected,
shielded. They find that type of
woman more convenient than the
other kind.
There are only two kinds of women
those who like men and those who
don't. The first type are fitted by
nature to become the mates of men
the second type are not. They are

woman who would attract a man
must be of the first type-what have
called the "cave woman" type.
OF all attractions, her essential
"womanliness" is the best. She may
be plain or pretty, she may have
brains or not. but If she is the cave
woman type she will prove attractive

women of her type-caused by the
marvellous resemblance / am said to
bear to my dead mother.
Don't Meg!" her stiff lips NUT
tered. and the diminutive name
struck a chord in my memory silent
since childhood.
With the fondness of girl child
for coming names for herself l an
nounced one day to my mother that
1 wished her to call herself and me,
her namesake, by the little name
Meg instead of the big name Mar

OF my mothers face, suddenly turned
ashen at my question, remained in
my childish memory, then gradually
faded, because neither of us ever had
referred to the incident again.
But at the woman's muttered excla-
nation my mothers face flashed before
me as plainly as If her living self stood
in the room, her voice, shaken, rough
ened to nervousness from its usual soft
accents sounded in my ears as 1t had
done on that long gone day.
Never that name, child! Never let
1t cross your lips!"
"ForsIve Me-"
"Whyf" asked with childish In
Quisitiveness.
She stopped. took my face between
her hands and spoke with sort OF
cold Intensity that made me SILVER.

caught my shrinking childish figure to
her, and felt her tears upon my face.

said, "and forget that mother spoke
this way. Only-never let me hear that
name again"
And here, after so many years, Fate
had brought me face to face with the
woman my mother had so hated.
She Masters Herself.
The loathing was not all on the part
of my mother. Hatred had spoken in
every infection of the woman's voice
when she had uttered the words which
had brought me tempestuously from

for.
There are many women who deny

But 1t is fact that men like best
the type of woman who knows the

Men want to think that they are
the great strong protectors. and that
women are dependent upon them, and
should yield to them and obey them.
Man wants the woman he loves to be
