MANS STRENGTH A FICTION
In Reality He Is Less Resistant to
Enemies Than Woman

1t is customary to speak OF man as
stronger than woman though this is
half true, half false; for although he is
stronger of frame and muscle and moro
active, he is of a markedly weaker con-
stiution, less resistant to the enemies
of life And this difference seems native
and intrinsic, not due to externals or to
the chance arrangements of society; for
already in infancy the man-chld is more
open to the attack of mortal disease.
Where 100 girl babies die in the first year
Of life, our census shows that there die
about 1870 boys
In the sense organs there Is a differ
ence closer to what we know of mind,
and which Is not wholly in accord with
the common thought that women ara
more sensitive than men. They are mora
delicate of touch and can perceive certain
tastes, notably sweet. at the low degree
that escapes the man, although for salt
and sour and bitter, as we'll as for smell
in general, the evidence is not so clear.
In Miss Nelson's experiments in Califor-
mia, says George MALCOLM Stratton in
the Century the men were able to hear
fainter tones, and for all but one of sew
eral pure colors of the spectrum the men,
contrary to the popular belief. detected
the color at lower intensity than did
the women.
But besides this difference in the senses
when they are normal, serious defects Of
eye and ear come far more often to the
man and TO the man-child. Color blind
ness, which is usually innate and is there's
fore not to be ascribed to the manncr
in which man lives and works. is about
tenfold more frequent among men than
among women. Blindness pure and sims
pie is also more frequent among men.
OF the number reported totally blind
in our country, about 10000 are mala
and 1880 are female. AS proof that this
great excess of the male blind is not due
entirely to the greater danger in mems
work, there is great excess of males
among those blind at birth. The most Sc
rious defects of hearing also occur often-
err among men; for of those reported in
our census as totally deaf there are thou-
sands more males than there are fe-
males.-Easton Free Press.
