I'nI.K1tV. - - "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.
