"Tho JndlfferC'lIce or Womea "

It is often said that whcn ever
the majority of women ask for
suffragc , they will get it. But
it is a simple historical fact that
cvcry improvement thus far made
in thc condition of'womcn has
becn sccured , not b ) " general demand -
mand from thc majority of
womcn , but by the argumcnts ,
cntreaties , and "continual com-
ing" of a persistent few. In each
case thc advocates of progress
have had to contend not merely
with conservatism of men , but
with thc indcfference of won en ,
and oftcn wi th active opposition
from somc of thcm.
Whcn a man in Saco , Me. ,
first employcd a salesw01uan , the
men bo'cottel , his store , and the
women remonstrated earnestly
with him on the sin of which he
was guilty 111 placing a young
woman In a position of such
publicity. When Lucy Stone
bcgan to tf ) ' to secure for mar-
ricd women the right to their
own property , women asked , with i
scorn , "Do you think I would
gh'e myself w1)ere I would not
gi ve my property ? " When Elizabeth -
beth Blackwell began to study
medicine , the women at her
boarding-house refused to speak
to her , and women passing her
on the streets held their skirts I
asic e so as not to touch
her. It is a matter of history
with what ridicule and opposition -
tion Mary Lyon's first efforts for
thc education of women were not
only by the mass of men , but by
the mass of women as well. In
England when the Oxford
examinations werc thrown open
to women , the Dean of Chiches-
ter preached a sermon against
it , in which he said : "By the sex
at large , certainly , the new cur-
ricuhn is not ask d for. I have
i ascertained , by extended inquiry
I among gentlewomen , that , with
t.rue feminine instinct , they
eithcr entirely distrust , or else
. look with downright disfavor on
so wild an invasion and intefer-
, ence with the best traditions of
I their sex. "
In Eastern countries , where
women are shut up in zenanas
, nnd forbidden to walk the streets
L unveiled , the women themselves
are among the strongest upholders -
ers of these traditional restrictions -
tions , whichjthey have been taught -
ght to think add to their dignity.
, The Chinese lady is as proud of
I her small feet as any American
. "anti" is of her political disabil-
ities. Ramabai tells us that the
l idea of educ'ation for girls is so
unpopular with the mass of
I Hindoo women that when a
progressive Himlo proposes to
educate his little daughter , it is
not uncommon for the women of
. his family to threaten to drown
I themselves.
AU this merely shows that
_ humane nature is conservative ,
. and that it is fully as conserva.
tive in 'women as in men. The
. . persons much interested in any
reform arc always comparatively
1 few , whether among men or
women , and they are habitually
regarded with disfayor , even by
those whom the proposed reform
isto benefit. Thomas Hughes
t says , in "Tom Brown at Rugby:11 :
Lt "So it is and must be'alwa's ,
my dear bo's. If the Angel
Gabriel were to come down frow
