the nations industrial ills, declared

LIFE AMONG THE EXPERTS.

Blessed is the expert, for he knows every
thing. The highest tyne OF expert doesn't be-
gin to show his real stride until he gives US .
hint Of how much he knows that isn't so. A
leading 'psycho-analyst" is explaining to a
gaping nation Why women are appearing SO
frequently in first-page news of which the pre-
vailing color is red Women are running
amuck with guns, and knives, and poison, be-
cause, says the expert, she wants to be a wo-
man, and men are insisting that she become a
man. She wants to be restored to her old
standing and the men will not allow her to
sneak back Being Ia man was all right for a
time so he says but marrying and giving in
marriage is woman's real sphere in life and she
gets peevish if shut out from it. That's why
she kills her husband other women's husbands,
and other husbands wives, and anybody else
that tries to point out her craziness Of habit
The psycho-analyst stopped before giving
a hint whether man will give back her old
Astatus to woman or 60 on being shot up. That
is job that should be easy to an expert in
telling what people will think next. laymen
would say in off-hand careless way, that if it
is question Of men changing their minds and
doing the fright thing by women, or being
killed. they will go On getting killed Nothing
inks men so much as changing their minds.
Or being right. The only time a man is reas-
oQably sure to change his mind is after he has
been convinced he is right, and should stick

they need it or not.
Everyone knows that doctors differ, but
few OF those addicted to the regular daily ex-

man who was genius could take comfort

God, he was clean. He could pride himself on
the possession of at~least one virtue.
Now all this. If the new gospel must be ac-
