No woman in America has exercised the least semblance of power; seemingly 20 woman has aspired to this} frst general power. “Presidents have not been made or un- made by a woman's smiles or a woman's wiles; love of woman has made no man patriot; no man has played traitor to wia a woman's favor, In American hie- tory there is neither Helen nor Borgia. There is no romance, no epic, not even a mythical character filtting through the pages. “American history, because woman has neither reigned nor rated, is at once the mest decorous and the dullest of which we have any recor?” WAVE BORNE THE GREATER BURDEN.
