Why Are Men the Least Faithful?
DOROTHY IHX
many good men ure divorced on statu
tory grounds while still loving their
Wives. But a good woman, married
to a man she loves, will remain faith
ful to him and never even think ol'
another man with unlawful thoughts.
A good man, on the contrary, will 'size
Up' every pretty and attractive woman
he sees with undisguised admiration,
&nd will often enter into an affair with
her, taking a chance of being found
out, even though he known the dis
covery may break up his home and
ruin Ills life.
"What is the 'why' of this difference
between the sexes?"
I think that there are three an
swers to this question.
The first Is sentimental.
No man ever loves a woman with
the complete and absorbing passion
with which a woman loves a man. No
woman ever takes possession of the
heart and soul and imagination of a
man as a man often does of a woman.
No wife Is ever literally all the world
to her husband, as many a man is the
whole universe to his wife.
There are plenty of women who
never think a single thought that does
hot center around their husbands; who
begin every sentence with "John says,"

TUESDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH OCTOBER 27, 1914
and who have not an interest, an
' aspiration or an idea that does not
5 focus tin him. There are no such
. men. Even the most devoted husband
- must think about his business and his
' ambitions.
Men's Eyes Free to lioam
' He dare not bore other men talking
. about his wife as she bores other
> women talking about her husband. He
• has amusements and interests in which
she has no part. All the clrcum
-5 stances of life tend to concentrate a
• woman's gaze on her husband, while
■ his eyes are left free to roam.
- To begin with, then, men are less
' | faithful to their wives than their wives
are to them because they are less
: capable of a supreme devotion; and
• also, to be perfectly truthful, because
• they are more subjected to temptation.
The second reason why men who
really love their wives are still ever
ready to follow any fluttering petti
coat. however great the risk, is, as
William Dean Howells once aptly said,
"Because, after six thousand years of
civilization, men are still imperfectly
inonogomous."
No woman is unfaithful to her hus
band as long as she has one particle of
affection for him in her heart. When
she breaks her marriage vow there is
treachery in her soul against her hus
band; but a man may be faithless in
the flesh to his wife, and yet hold her
in his heart as in a shrine, and be
straining every nerve and muscle to
surround her with every luxury anct
keep her safe and sheltered from the
hardships qf life.
in a way, women do sense this
dimly. That is Why they forgive so
often when their husbands stray off
of the straight and narrow path, and
why they shut their eyes to so man.\
things that they do not want to see, !
As long as a man is kind and tender
to his wife and agreeable at home, his
wife recognizes that he is true to her
in spirt, however his feet may wander,
and she seldom feels called upon to
i take her troubles to the divorce court.
Convention Controls Woman
i < The third reason why men are less
[ faithful to their wives than their wives
i are to them may be found in the sim
ple tact that wives condone their hus
bands' Immorality, while husbands do
; not condone their wives. Men have
, done their moral duty by women far
L better than women have done their
moral duty by men.
A girl knows that before a man
' marries her he is going to look into
her record, and that it must be spot
! .!?' or w "' not have her for his
i wile. A wife knows that she must
i walk as straight as a string, else her
™®and will divorce her and take her
: children from her. Therefore women
as a sex are virtuous.
On the other hand, no girl dares
look into her prospective husband's
record. Few wives but llnd it the part
i of wisdom to be blind, and convention
permits a man to indulge his impulses
unrebuked and do the things that he
would divorce and disgrace his wife
for doing.
What is the remedy for this? Al
mighty wisdom alone knows. The
growing number of self-supporting
women is going to help some, because
the woman who does not need to
marry for a home can afford to be
much more particular about the
morals of a man she marries than
could the girl to whom any sort of a
husband who has a meal ticket was a
godsend. N«r will the wife who has
a good trude to which she can turn
stand for the philandering on her
husband's part that the helpless and
dependent wife has had to stand for
thesake of foqd and shelter.
, The real reform, however, must
i come among men themselves in their
growing sense of the sacredness of the
marriage relationship and of an equal
loyalty between the sexes, and in the I
struggle of the man himself to hold
in leash the brute that is within him. '

Saves Zeppelin By Sawing
Off Propeller in Midair
Berlin, via The Hague and London,
Oct. 27. —Artificer Luickhardt, of a
Zeppelin airship crew, has been deco
rated with the iron Cross, first class.
I While the Zeppelin was dropping
bombs on Antwerp recently it was de
tected by a searchlight in the town
[and a battery showered shells around
it. One of the shells shattered the
framework of a propeller, the damage
threatening to disable the airship.
Luickhardt. when he realized this
danger, volunteered tp saw off the pro
peller. which task he accomplished in
half a*i hour while clinging to the
shattered framework fi.OOO feet above
the guns of the fortress. Liter, when
the dirigible got under way and was
speeding at the rate of forty miles an
i hour, Luickhardt repaired a long rent

! NO MVnSLINGIXG OR SLANDER
FOR I)R. BRUMBAUGH
j Before leaving Pittsburgh late Sat
urday night after a series of great re
ceptions Doctor Brumbaugh expressed
the utmost confidence in the outcome
November 3.
"I have not at any time or place
entered into any slanderous, besmirch
ing, mudslinging campaign," said the
gubernatorial candidate. "There are
plenty of great issues, fine principles,
splnedid educational propagandas to
consider, and life is too short to use
the tongue of bitterness and malice
I and hate and slander. I have tried to
tell the truth and tell it like a gentle
man to tho people. I want to say to
you that if a man Is not a gentleman
in a campaign or in a political contest
he cannot be a gentleman In office."
DEMOCRATIC BATTERING OF
THE BUSINESS STRUCTURE
"The structure of American busi
ness," said Senator Penrose on Sat
urday, "has received tremendous
shock; its foundations must have been
strong indeed to have withstood the
repeated blows. It is doubtful whether
the business affairs of any nation have
ever been subjected to such needless
adverse conditions in modern history.
In fact, it is no exaggeration to say
that we have suffered more from
bungling and hostile legislation than
have the nations of Europe from the
war raging there, except, of course, in
the matter of loss of lives."

Dauphin County Medical Society's

THE MODIFIED BASQUE
TAKESJBANY FORMS
A New Blouse Showing Many Inteiv
esling Features.
By MAY~MANTON
8411 Fancy Blouse, 34 to 44 bust
One of the most interesting develop*
pents of the basque idea is to be found
in the blouse that is finished over the skirt
! in place of under it, and here is an excel
! jent example. As shown in the picture,
I it is made from one of the new silks of
the seson, in what are known as Roman
! Stripes, with the vestee, collar and cuffs ot
I white silk poplin, but the model is one that
, can be made with skirt to match to form
■ a costume and utilized for the separate
I blouse with equal success. Stripes are
I conspicuous among the new materials,
| but there are also a preat many plain
silks which would be adapted to such use.
Charmeuse and liberty satins are to have
Kreat vogue, and the new taffeta is de
lightfully soft and fine. Crapes are lovely,
both the all silk and the silk and wool, and
if liked, the blouse itself can be made of
one material with the trimming of another,
such as striped silk over plain, velvet over
taffeta, or satin over cr<?pe. Silk poplin is
much liked for vestees but washable ma
terials such as piqu6 and organdie are
also used. Clever women finish these
accessories separately and attach thera
with snap fastenings so that they can be
easily renewed.
For the medium size will be needed
yards of material 27 or 36 inches wide,
or 3 yards 44 with *£ yard 27 inches wide
for vestee, collar and cuffs.
The May Manton pattern No. 8411 is
cut in sizes from 34 to 44 inches bust
measure. It will be mailed to any addresa
by the Fashion Department of this paper,
on receipt of ten cents.
