It was about time. When I suggested Prof. Starr's declaration of woman's inherent and inescapable mental inferiority as a matter for dis- F cussion by Evening World readers, I received so many briefs for the affirmative, so few defenses of woman's claims to intellect, that I had begun to feel that even woman herself accepted and acquiesced in her shame. ; To-day, however, one reader urges the point that men inherit their minds from their mothers, while another asserts that “this is the age of woman's progress. Man must abdicate his claims to superiority.” Students of heredity discovered Jong ago that great men are the corollaries of great mothers. On the other hand, it is but rarely that & great man’s son equals his father in intellectual energy. It is in Lae- titia Bonaparte, and not in Charle: that historians trace the source of the greatest intellect the human race has ever produced—Napoleon.
