Humanity can stand coarseness and profanity and drunkenness— yes, and gorging—4f men alone are concerned. There ts not approval, but tolerance. But when a woman enters the ranks and vies with men in @carseness it is easy to weep.

And if he is a man—note the saving clause again—he'll - Bate himself for even witnessing any affalr which has for its chief sattraction the degradation of a woman. ‘New York can well spare time to put the eating contests out of existence, solely in the Interest of good morals.
