Chesterton says, some. of the oldtime
masculine attitude toward them re:

Pittsburgh Dispatch. In further proof
of this. the. Englishman goes on to
speak in the same old prewar way
about the psychology of women, using
the familiar words, II speak reverent-
ly as of a mystery, for a man never
knows what woman will do" and
then he tells how she will act under
certain circumstances.
The mystery about 1t is not in the
psychology Of woman, but in the fact
that, having supposed that woman
would act in tile way most natural to
all humanity, he thinks it is mysteri.
GUS because a woman does 1t. He
describes a man as likely TO act the
same way under similar circum-
stances, but does not see any mys-
terry in the masculine point of view.
