Any druggist To A REAL man SHE 1h ALWAYS WOMANLY He ought to know because he is a European—an Italian, in fact—and therefore eminently qualified to testify as an expert con- cerning the women of the western world, Signor Sergardi contributes his highly interesting comparison between the Latin and American women to the current number of Vanity Fair, “The women who emigrated from Europe to Amer ica were freed from paternal authority,” he says. “They After ten generations—in which all the virite forces of the men were needed in their strug- gle against nature—the American woman, refined and cultivated, took the upper hand. As they had nothing to do but perfect themselves, they became the superior type of the race and very soon dominated it. “But not ao with the Latin woman, @——<——$————_—_— an will melt into womaniiness at a glance or a touch. I think {t is fair to aay that the attitude of the Latin woman toward men might be expressed thus: “Some-men are more attractive than other men, but ANY man is better than none.” So when she meets the professional male with his strut and swagger and sheeps eyes, his tales of conquest and innuendoes of a deep, dark past, she may see through him quite as clearly as an American woman, But he may be the only man around, and what is the use of scaring him away? So she pats him and purs over hin and feeds him lumps of flattery, and he thinks what a delightful kittenish little being she is. SENDS JOHNNY ABOUT HIS BUSINESS. Now the American woman wants ONE man—one only, And many of us consider it a waste of time to let the professional male practise his little wiles on us. When he tries, when he talks to us of the emptiness of life and every woman's need of a strong masculine arm to lean upon, a deep masculine chest upon which to weep when she feels like it, we are very apt to say “Yes, Johnny; it is all true and I need such a man, and I am looking for him, But YOU are NOT the man." Whereupon Johnny decides that he has been casting the pearls of his ‘nature before a hard, brutal, unsexed female, and reads some urticle like that written by Signor Sergardi, agreeing with him and observing that he is “darned right." Is it not interesting that Signor Sergardi believes that women cease to be feminine when they cease to le? Women cease to le when they cease to be slaves, the le betng notoriously a slave's weapon. As more women than men are slaves—even to-day—tt {s probable that more women are Mara, Lying i not a sex trait but a slave trait, If we can't be lovable without lying, why, then, back to the harem with us! Kor few women will le unless they haye to li ts too much trouble—and requires a fright- | ful amount of bookkeeping beside The American woman is @ woman for one man—a friend, comrade, com- petitor for the othurs. She is not obsessed by sex because less and loss she lives by it, Love is, for her, the flower of life, not life Itself, She sol- dom gives Ter love to a European, and when she does so bestow it she lives to regret tho gift To the American woman, perhaps, the most astounding assertion in Signor Segurdi's article is that she ts the superior of the American man. In a very limited class, a class so small numerically as to be negligible, she has more superficial culture, She speaks more foreign languages bad~ ly; she Is more giib in talking about Nietzsche, Bergson, William James and company. But what does that prove? If she were really the Ame ican man's supertor she would be o earning @ living for him.
