The Llano colonist. [volume] (Llano, Calif.) 191?-1937, 1922-07-22

Holding restaurant MATTRESSES hands
seems TO Be a favorite indoor sport
Will, some. Inadvertently, when reach
ing for knife, the hand touches a
shapely ann, and the stalwart one ex-
periences a thrill. Why thrill in the
restaurant?
A woman said, whose beautiful face
would upset the ordinary mind: Why
do men talk 50 sillyp Do they think
women have no brainsq I've begun TO
think the vaunted intelligence and SUI
periority Of the male sex is vastly over
rated There are so many men who
make perfect asses Of themselves when
they try to be nice; indeed, they be-
come simpering lollypops. Why can't
they be natural?"
IL the ordinary man knew that his
sister, wife or sweetheart was talked to
as he talks to the waitress, he'd knock
the block off the presumptuous male
if he could find him. However, its
perfectly natural. Women have been
slaves so long to men that the habits
hard to break and women have learn
ed to stand it. Yet there are women
in the nation to-day who believe it I'M
ladylike to mix up in politics, and such
a thing as the single standard" is a
shock. Education comes slowly even
to women, smart as they are.
Wise is the man who trusts to wa
mans intuition. In the judging Of men
especially. Let the woman give man
a critical glance. hold a short CONVEX
sation, and she has the best phycho-
analyst backed off the boards. She
knows man. Man doesn't know wo-
man because he thinks she's an angel
or doll or a house drudge. Women
didn't have souls according to the old
churchmen. Even St. Paul told them
where to get off at He interdicted
them from coming to church with UNI
covered heads. He said other things
about women so that it seems astonish-
ing so many women like him to-day.
But distance lends enchantment, and
early slams are forgotten.
Scientists are irving to analyze the
third personality Of men and women.
Mankind is half and half DR.. Mary
Walker was female. but wanted to
be male and wore mems clothes. George
Sand was writer and mother and
very masculine. Effeminate Chopin,
the composer fell in love, and they liy-
ed unhappily for years. Joan OF Arc,
mannish in actions but weak effemln-
ate girl before the angel Of revolution
appeared to her-and now she symbol
ICES courage, daring and revolution.
Wholly man or wholly woman is a
sad state. No one would understand
such person. He would be alone
and loveless. Mark Anthony, Caesar
and other so-called leaders were ct
terminate to subseryiency Men will fid-
die with his hair by the half-hour;
some women will do up wad IN halt
a minute. Some men like trailing ar
butts and lilac perfumes; some women
seem to eschew soap even. Funny
mixture of contrarities.
The several million dollars that was
on The Lusitania when she went down
is being searched for. She lies under
several hundred feet Of water; yet gold
hunters go there. Another proof that
the urge for gold is fundamental. The
writers who say that all mans actions
ana woman 's,too. can be interpreted
materiaIistically are hitting near the
truth. The other urge is sex. Practi-
caIIy all interrelations can be explain
ed from these two premises.
Lenin has had stroke, il is SAID.
He will be laid up for SIX months. and
probably never come back. The best
specialists Of Europe say that il is a
blood clot' on the brain and has to
Be absorbed" There's school OF
bonesetters, the Chiropractors, and IN
deed the Osteopaths. who say that
punched nerves is the cause Of this
maledy. Yet the law Is such that none
Of these specialists could reach Lenm
with their beneficent help.
