E- mm! “varnish. mutant.“ They cannot justify their own misdoing by telling wh‘at “others did,” to provoke them to wrath or to hinder their usefulness. Having their own standards of conduct they try to live up to themselves at their best; hence a woman 's weakness or falsity, or in- accessible enchantment, can never provoke such men to prove that they are cowards or villains. Mrs. Stowe touched, the outer- edge of this subject in her “Pink vand White Tyranny" and many writvrs haw ri’eljfiflli'lled that. a good man may be brow-beaten by a very 'shallow woman. George Elliot’s Rosamond in “Middlemarch” was a pink and white tyrant with a high minded husband whose subtile sufferings were 98 keen as his wife 8 devices to enslave him were subtle. »‘In his perplexityâ€"when ruin M him in the faco,~ohe hold They do not fancy that a woman’s unworthiness justifies them in being unworthy.

Evén' Hh‘en the remedy is not infnltjble. There is an_ uncertainty about the “Undiscovered Chantry" that induces most people to fight shy of it, ‘and seek a remedy in the re- sources of this present time‘. About one who is divorced clings always the disquieting “wonder which was to blame.” If the marriage-vow in the fist instance can be set aside,and “till death do us part” was merely a' phrase meaning nothing what guarantee is there that marriage- \ows in the second instance could mean anything? A leading actress has her record in a‘book of notorieties, as "mar: tied five times and divorced every time.” The civil law may allow these things; but the higher law de mands fine character and individâ€" ual excellence, irrespective of “what the law allows." Heroes are.» not merely self sat- isfied men. They are men who’ can “endure hardness as good soldiers." - can face difficulty and “meet it like a man,” can be mar- ried ton fool and neitlier brow- bea}. her not allow her to brow- beat them.
