THE PEOPLES FORUM
JEALOUSY

In tie lower animal world and
among the feathered folk, jealou-
~ is practically confined to the
males 1t kills the rival or gets
killed by direct personal combat
in the open on a fair field. Ia
the so-ealled higher animal world,
women are certainly as jealous as
men. Here too the males kill by
direct personal violence, some
times everybody involved inelud-
ing others being murdered with
revolving atrocity. But il is usual
y not IN the open, and the field
is rarely fair As Il rule women
kin only their husbands when
they want TO marry other men,
or the wives Of other men when
they want 70 marry their husb-
ands. They generally do it by
poison, often with deyilish inge-
nrity and cruelty. Ii has been
so IN all history. Out Of kindness
we now call it insanity. Ordinarily
they resort to scandal. The viii
stop at nothing to destroy the ri
walls, or the loved ones themselves
when the rivals win. They will
even defame themselves to do it,
no matter how justly they have
been treated. Well did Shake
spear term this passion the
green-eyed monster. "
Every boy aud girl should be
made to understand these basic
facts in human character, and ev-
cry effort should be made to forti-
iy them against the danger. Caus-
ing petty iealousies, or yielding
10 them, should be rated lower
than petty larceny. The boy must
be made to see that il persisted in,
ne will some day run amuck like
mad grizzly bear, or turn some
woman into poisoner or pole cat,
or. cause some man 10 slash and
kill everybody in his path like a
mad grizzly. But the education
must be positive as well as mega
tive. There must be a daily exer-
else in something which will be
of absorbing interest, and which if
kept up will eventually SO domi-
nate the heart life that jealousy
simply cannot get into it. That
something with boys is friendship.
! defined it in this paper on Dc
tober 2, last. 1t is the very anti
thesis of jealousy, neither claim
ing ownership nor demanding re-
ciprocity 1t is an easy thing for
a father 10 do if he can examplify
the virtue, aud has the capacity
TO inspire his boy with high ideals.
They take 10 it naturally, and can
often do it alone. though the pre-
cept and example of father or
other friend are invaluable. But
with girls it is another matter.
They take naturally to jealousy.
but moi to friendship. And their
mothers do not know how to teach
it, for it is not one of the feminine
graccs. What TO use IN place Of
