\\2o(V)en The Selfishness of Man Bv BEATHICE FAIRFAX , M"Jt women are sooner or later Viriven to the conclusion that men are J uelly selfish creatures and there Is 11 nfc-. :aln amount of truth In the accusa tion. although the cruelty is premedi tated only by men who are also brutes. The stronger creature ought always protect the weaker—a man is stronger than woman both physically and in the Intrenchment of power the world has sriven him. That he abuses this power very often is due to heedlessness and lack of knowyleclgre, rather than to any conscious desire to be cruel. Selfishness on the part of men gen- : orally means following tl»o lino of their ! own desires without consulting the wishes of the women whose jov comes from their hands. I know a kindly-souled %an who re- i sponds with the untmost tenderness ! and sympathy to the cry of pain or i sorrow. He hates to see the woman 1 re loves suffer. It fairly tortures him to know that she has a headache. At all times he feels as if all the world should admire and cater to her. But he expects her to find her Joy in ! his joy. He takes her to see all the comic operas of which the city boasts, and he actually does not know that i the one thing she really eniovs is a ! srood melodrama. Probahlv the melo drama wouldn't bore him—he might even enjoy it, but he simply doesn't know or care to find out whether the woman he loves has individual tastes quite outside the realm of the things he likes to do. j This masculine quality of taking it ! for granted that what pleases you ; pleases those you love exaggerates itself into a heedlessness of indi viduality that goes so far as to wreck i marriage. When a man says "1 love you. I want you.'' he thinks all is said, and he ex- . pects the woman who loves him to fall promptly and gracefully into his arms. It seldom occurs to him to wonder jf he can make her happy, once he is fairly sure that a given woman car. make him happy. With calm lordliness he expects belonging to him to retlect I benignant sunshine back on his be- < loved. He may be unfailingly kind and ' gentle and tender, hut it is according > to his own ideals of kindliness and gen tleness and tenderness that he pro-, ceeds. When a woman wants a dandelion i all the American Beauties in the world will mean nothing to her And a dio- | mond necklace Is i old comfort to the i ■woman whose one desire is for j caress I or for a sympathetic word.

Try Telegraph Want Ads MONDAY EVENING, HXRJUBBURG TELEGRAPH SEPTEMBER 20, 1915. • Too many men divide the world i sharply into masculine and feminine. ! : After all. the world is made up of tn di\ iduals—not of lords of creation I and their dependents, but of think- 1 ing: human beings who in spite of sex differences, are equally capable: of feelings, emotions, desires and pref- ! erences. The "little things'* that mean so much to women generally quite escape i masculine attention. If men know or i noticed they would probably not re fuse to make the small concessions that mean so much to women. But they ! i have an impatient way of sweeping I j aside trifles and telling women to be I broadminded. They simply do not per- j ceive many of the delicate little chances for kindliness—and if they happen to 1 I glimpse them they sweep them aside as i petty and trivial. Real unselfishness consists very ! largely in pitting yourself in some I one else* place and in imagining l what you would desire if you could exchange individualities Men sel i dom do this. What they want strikes them as a paramount issue. I think they lose much of the delicate and ! exquisite joy to be found in perfect giving by this very inability to offei what is wanted instead of what ihev ! i feel should be wanted. ! t But how royally they give the 1 I things that occur to them to offer! How willingly men slave for the i luxuries which mean nothing to them, j but which are important to the wo- j I men who depend on them. How often ; men go about in shabby old suits of by.. i gone tailoring while wives and daugh- ' | ters are smart in Fifth avenue clothes. 1 I nsclflshness is a matter of the in dividual rather than of the sex. There j ; are plenty of cold, calculating women j and there are stubborn and brutal ! men in over-abundant numbers. But « f* en © r all*ation that r*a!ls men sei- ' fish is not fair. A certain blindness— • a certain heedless unconsciousness of , the desires of others—a certain lord ly taking for granted that what • pleases Darby will, as a result, please Joan, are all masculine character- ' istics. Xone of these tilings means actual selfishness only indicates a certain lark of fineness of preoption. j If. instead of growing indignant at' they call selfish brutes, women | would bring a little common sense to 1 ' hear on the situation they might pity : them for the masculine blindness that j prevents the highest type of svmpathv j and generous understanding. * !

The effect of the American training of the stu<ient3 has been very notice able. Returning foreign students have taken back with them ideas that have had a profound effect on their native lands. Exanm'.Cb of this are frequent. The late Franvisco 1. Jla- dero, one time president of Mexico, i was a graduate of an American uni versity. It was he who, imbued with the freedom of America, returned to Mexico and organized and enthused | his people to end the Diaz despotism. I That he was unable to control the : | situation when he gained the presi dency in no way detracts from the great work he has begun, which may i ultimately result in a free and peace- ' ful Mexico. The constitution of re- ' publican China was drawn up by a Vale graduate, C'hengting T. Wang.
