The lady pronounced herself wharmed with the letters he wrote and the iand of the windmills and great estates. And when he wrote to her that he had a wooden she responded that it made no difference; that a man thus equipped would naturally be a home- loving man, and that, above all things, that was what she desired. She sent him pictures of her cowboys rounding up her stock in Texas, of her stock- yards in Chicago, of her home and park in New York.

BY NIXOLA GREEBLEY-SMITH. “Tam one who did work and win, In the first place, why not atta | men? Are there be any? —e To this ingenuous inquiry of a young woman reader I am forced to reply that men are no more neces- sary to immorality and no more re- sponsible for it than women are. “The sins we do by two and two we must answer one by one,” but this doesn't indicate that only one is to blame. Large numbers of both sexes insist upon regarding the other sex as the source of all evil. Men assert that woman is always the tempter. Women persist in accepting the old, false notion that man is a monstrous mimotaur to whom thousands of young women victims are sacrificed every year. The human beast of prey is of both sexes, There are he- wolves and she-wolves. There is an excess of male over female births in humanity generally—said to be Na- ture’s provision for the men who might be killed in war—and {f it seems that now and then more he-wolves are born it may be only the result of a natural law. Masculine morality, when it ex- iste, is © fuer thing than feminine morality. I use the word morality fm the narrow sense which it has come to have for most persons. For social pressure preserves many girls and ruins just as many boys. All the great forces of society com- bine to protect young women and to expose young men to temptation. It takes courage for a boy to be g00d. It takes courage for a girl to be any- thing else, Then, too, all crimes are! automatically self-justifying, and the minute a young man ceases to be & moral being he decides that he has merely become a normal man. And the greater number of his fellow be- inga will encourage him in the belief, VIRTUE IN A MAN CONSIDERED A JOKE. So long as the virtue of women is ® world ideal and the virtue of men— when it exists—is @ world joke, !t will be far easter for women than for men to be moral. It is not yet the fashion to ridi- cule goodness in women. But let young man be unwary enough to sxalonte that he has « higher ‘standard of personal coaduct than & barnyard rooster and he becomes the butt of cosrse jokes. Some years ago a poor creature was pilloried from one end of the country to the other as “(Gladstone Dowle, great unkissed" and in a minor degre every man who has the folly to display the slightest festidiougness of sex Is crucified with ridicule. In certain circles it i# even considered sligatly humorous !f @ man remains faithful to his wife, All of which is written is 'Are ral the man not men responaible ‘for all ity?” to let her know that who 1s good has to be very, very good, and the man who ia bad is—I quite agree with her—horrid. ‘The letters of Evening World read- ern follow.

BUSINESS MEN, Dear Madam: I am one who did the! | work and win and wish to express My opinion as to the eause, In the first place, why not attack man? Are not men responsible for all immorality? Without them couid there be any immorality? Of course not. But it is always the woman who has to shoulder the blame as the real cause of immorality, Why not five the man his share of censure not always hammer at woman? | Not the young man by any means, but the middle aged or elderly mat not the poor or uneducated, but the educated business man whose only god is money and whose wife {s no longer attractive to him. | Other causes of immorality are the @ltogether too free use of alcohol | among young girls, the lack of Proper spiritual training and the de- | sire of most girls to be flattered and not considered slow; also yos:p among the stronger of the female sex, who will not lend @ helping hand to the girl who has fallen prey to these wolves in sheep's clothin, and lack of confidence in older sin- ters or mothers, who would proba- bly foresee what the young girl can- not. 1 am the mother of two growing boys and I hope to instil In their minds the necessity of early mar- riage and to keep them God fearing, for God fearing girls and boys make moral men and women, — 1.

PRESIDENCY FIGHT BRINGS OUT Mrs. William Libby, Possible Dark Horse, in Place of Mrs. John M. Horton. IBLE FOR MANY GIRLS’ WASHINGTON, April 15.-With the nominations of officers set for 8 o'clock to-night, the Daughters of the Amert- can Revolution, when they met to-day on the second session of thelr annual convention, settled down to ten hours of campaigning in the struggle for President-General of the society. The feeling between the three camps was tense. C, @tory, Mra Charles Miller Horton and Mra. Charles B. Bryan were early on the acene, All claimed victory for their favorite candidates, During the day the headquarters of the various didates for President- General gave many rumors of a possible dark horse. It was declared at the headquarters of Mrs. Story that the ad- ministration forces were preparing to line up behind Mrs. Willlam Libbey of New Jersey, should it be found that Mrs. John Miller Horton of Buffalo could not be elected. Gome feeling existed over the criticiam of the Credentials Committee yesterday. It was held that “politics” had been re- gorted to In an effort to favor the chances of one of the candidates and that such tactics should be frowned upon. This feeling formed the basis for the echiem. ‘Curlous women, not eligtvie to mem- berehip in the organization, found the oors of Continental Hall barred to them when they besteged the building.
