Selfishness
a Curable
' Disease?
The Wise Hen Scratches
for Herself and
Doesn't Wait for
Miracles.
By Beatrice Fairfax.
A letter signed "A Wife" has
come in my morning's mail; in it
the writer asks for suggestions in
regard to dealing with her husband,
whose selfishness as described by
her seems incurable.
Eleventh hour recoveries from
this disease have always seemed
like doubtful "cures" to me. Judg
ing from the homely barnyard par
able that a rooster who spends his
life in scratching worms exclusive
ly for himself, is not likely to re
form when old; age overtakes him.
And the wise hen who has
scratched for herself from the be
ginning will continue to devote her
energies to this pursuit taking
care to save the results for her old
age rather than look for a miracle
to take place after the rooster has
lost much of his hustling energy.
When a woman slaves for a man
to the extent my correspondent de
scribes, and he is still dissatisfied,
his case begins to assume some of
the aspects of a disease. It recalls
Oliver Wendell Holmes's assertion
that every disease is curable, if
taken in time. And when someone
asked him how soon should the
treatment begin, he laid:
"Sometimes about 200 years be
fore the patient is born."
Perhaps this man was hopeless
before he married the wife who
cooked, washed, ironed, sewed and
took boarders yet failed to meet
his standards of wifely efficiency.
Perhaps his mother had done her
indulgent worst for him from early
boyhood, as some mothers glory in
doing.
They begin to instill a sense of
sex superiority into their sons be
fore the poor little creatures are
able to hold up their heads or have
a single tooth to their credit. They
are entreated to be "a little -'man"
and not "cry like a little girl."
Though every mother who has had
both kinds, knows there is no sex
in the infant "boo hoo."
The Wrong Tack.
Later she insists that Johnnie
take his castor oil "like a little
man," that he properly despise
dolls in the same manner. But a
drum, toy cannon, hammer or lit
tle soldiers are to be venerated
anything that will help him re.-.iize
he is a member of the noisy sex.
The most humiliating punish
ment known to maternal discipline
is to put a sister's dress or apron
on him when he has achieved the
acme of naughtiness. In the mean
time mamma waits on him hand and
foot, and if there are little sisters
in the family, she sees to it that
they properly abase themselves be
fore the young household kaiser.
Sex superiority is ingrained with
every breath he draws, and it is
comparatively easy for a small child
to realize when he belongs to a gov
erning class. '
Later he identifies mamma with
the despised sex and is contemptu
ous of her wishes and opinions. But
then, poor dear mamma has no one
to blame when she is tyrannized
over by her son but herselt". It is the
wife who all unconsciously accepts
another woman's spoiled darling as
a husband, to whom the sympathy
belongs. Such a wife might as well
make up her mind from the begin
ning that selfishness is a thirsty
soil, capable of absorbing all the
water she has the strength and
patience to carry.
Sometimes by devoting all her
energies to reconstruction a wile
succeeds in making over the jorry
product of a spoiled son, bu! after
all, one is attempted to ask, is the
game worth the candle?
Misdirected Energy,
The amount of energy that a
woman may expend in turning an
utterly selfish man into a normal
human being might frequently be
put to other and better uses- When
she has finished with him, he is
but ending the chapter where he
should have begun it.
And it is apt to be rather a dull
uninteresting chapter after all. No
one is any richer for having read
it, and the time might have been
more profitably spent doing some
thing else.
I believe "A Wife" must have
realized this when she wrote:
"Twenty months ago I was told if
I did not get out and hustle I would
get nothing more from him, and as
the few things I possessed were
mostly the 'hand-me-downs' from
my family, and they were about
worn out, I got out and hustled.
"I started out at $1,200 per annum
and am now making $1,700. In that
time I have bought all the extras
for the house, have clothed myself,
have helped to pay my personal
debts, and, last but not least, 1 have
saved $800.
"During the past twenty months
I have not had a penny from ray
husband. You tell me I am not
wasting my time when I am doing
housework. If it were appreciated
I should love it, but, as matters
stand, I get more out of life in the
'business world.' Why? Because
drudgery is not making an old
woman of me. I do not have to hu
miliate myself by accepting a small
pittance from a man who is selfish.
I meet men and women with .whom
I can talk and forget my troubles.
In fact, the last 20 months l.ave giv
en me back 10 years of my youth."
This woman has answered her
own question when she says thrft
work has given her back 10 years
of her youth. Work and interest in
her case have proved to be not only
the solution of her life riddle, but
twin blessings as well.
"The job," with its comfortable
salary, which enables her to kei'p
her self-respect, is the friendly float
ing spar to which she may cling in
the shipwreck of her domestic aspi
rations. And doubtless she and her. hus
band will be better friends now that
there is no longer any necessity fo
humiliating wrangles over money.
Her "job" has entitled her to a spe
cial consideration that her penniless
condition failed to insure her, and on
such a foundation it is so easy to
build up happiness and the graces
of life.
