WHAT MAKES MEN coNcEITEDl

All female creatures, from the era
die to the grave. proceed on the basis
that all men are conceited. This Ia
perhaps particularly true Of the man
who is no longer lover, but husband.
AS lover he had wide streaks Of hu-
mility in his composition; a husband
mostly regards humility as a waste
product. More than once I have seen
some dull woman f%attering my hus-
band, and have had him tell ms after
ward what a fine, keen. warm-heart-
ed little person she Is l have yet 10
meet the man who fails to feel that
the woman who admires him has
something sound and right about 9
More than once / have fiattered a
man Just to see him expand. Indeed.
it is a stupid or inexperienced woman
who has not done this. and usually
because she wanted to get something
out of him. In his dealing with a
woman 1t is quite easy to sell a man a
gold brick. Doubtless the well-known
law of compensation works here: II
men get plenty Of self-satisfaction out
OF their self-confdence, It Is some
thing for which they have to pay the
piper. A oma of my age knows
| that a certain amount Of self-satis-
| faction has been necessary to keep
the race going, and that the self-sat-
isfed type that appreciates itself most
| highly has been the most successful
type. The trait has been very valu.
| able to the race, at any rate In the
| rough-and-tumble conditions through
which men have lived and struggled
in evolving from the days of Pithe
canthropus. Women have done thei'
bit in stimulating this quality of con
ceit and dissatisfaction because thel
like successful men and have mar
ried them when they had the chance
which is the same thing as sayini
that they have married conceited mei
and bred conceited boys. whose con
ceit they fostered by praise. Al

THE SUNDAY LAW.

Blue law talk will die down now for a while. The bill in regard to ob- servance of Sunday will go to the Governor of this state for his sigma ture, and New Britain, at least, will go on her peaceful way rejoicing-not because the bill has been passed, but because it will be the same city and many will not know that a law has been enacted allowing professional baseball, football and concerts on the afternoon of every or any sabbath. The bill gives local option on the matter.
 Of course it is possible that the pas sage of this bill and its signing by the Governor will induce some pro- motors to start professional baseball here and in other cities of the State, if this and other cities give the per mission. But such a thing. desired or undesired, it not likely this year. Even should it some there will be little change in the routine of Sunday. Those who make it a rule to go to church Sunday mornings will continue to do so: those who give the day to golf or to picnics or driving will not change their habits. The sun will shine, it is to be hoped, on those days, and New Britain will be the New Britain we know.
 At the present writing there seems to be nothing over which the prudish should shudder the liberal complain because of this bill.
