Problems That Perplex
Answered by
BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Simple: We still have five of
your questions to answer, having
disposed of three of them yesterday.
They are:
4. Are not elrl protected too much by
American laws, thus making them weak
er? 5. Why do men eipert erlrls to be
mors perfect xamples than themselves?
6. Why are- so many men golnn about
with other girls besides their sweethearts
and wives?
1. Why ar men so busy making
money and so poor at managing love af
fairs successfully?
8. And with all this, why are we ad
vancing In civilization?
4. Tou exhibit astounding igno
rance for one of such apparent good
sense when you say girls are pro
tected too much by American laws.
Some girls and women are made
- weak by too much indulgence, but
not by too much legal protection.
Laws have been made by men and
for men through most of time. I
haven't time to cite you examples
of great injustices to women which
may be found in our Btstute books
today. Nebraska has as good legis
lation for women as any state, but
even here there aresome discrimi
nations against women in regard to
property rights. A man may buy
bends, for example, store them away
In his safety box and some time
prior to his death give them to the
nurse who cared for him, leaving the
wife who has made the fight of life
with him penniless. He couldn't
will his property away from " his
wife, but he could make any gift of
personal property during his life,
time and be within his legal rights.
In other words, while our laws pro
tect the wife fairly at a husband's
death, and while they give her just
Interest in real property during his

In the personal property acquired by
both of them after marriage. Our
men have always been better than
our laws, you know. In fact it is
difficult to cover some of the finer
points of jujtice by law. Man. un
der our aystem, holds the advan
tageous position. That is as it
should be so long as he is re.ponM

the woman and while It works out
well enough in the majority of cases
it refutes with a specific case your
point that women are too much pro
tected by law.
I could cite you laws from ther
states which work absolute injustice
upon wives, discriminating against
them as to their right to their own
wages, the right . to their children
in case of divorce, etc.
5. Woman has. In the past, been
more sheltered and, I think, more
virtuous than man and men have
cbnsequently come to expect a high
er standard from her than from
themselves. It is wrong, of course,
but its basis is custom and circum

your question means. The query
goes all the way. back to Adam and
much too deep a t.nt for me. Sur
face reasons a-plenty could be given,
but you know what they are.
7. I've known some who were
rather good at the latter and poor
at the former.
8. Progress Is the law of life.
My own belief is that God Himself
wills that we shall . progress. I
cannot assume to explain the
"scheme of things entire," but I
firmly believe that trie guiding hand
of the universe lives and Is capable
of determining many things aboyt
which we mortals needlessly con
cern ourselves.
A final word to you: Tou are evi
dently doing some thinking on im
portant human problems, but I
judge from the questions themselves
that you lack the information for
working out answers. Tou should
read more substantial literature. . I
don't mean current events (though
of that I approve), but of good es

philosophy, of psychology and good
drama. Tou - should read what
might be called "reflective" litera.
ture. Tou don't see life as a wTiole
sufficiently. Tou seem to be rather
arbitrary. Morals, customs and
things are sharply distinguished by
you into right or wrong, desirable
or undesirable. But that ism't life.
Life Is complex and relative. Do
this reading I suggest and your brain
will txpand and jour sympathies
along with it.

His hand went toward the pocket

I thanked him mentally, for my

was throbbing with nervous pain.

ness, had stuffed a dark veil m the
pocket of the long motor coat she
had sent by Dicky, and with it

way that my forehead was hidden,
I was able to disguise my plight to
some small degree. But I knew

I was anxious indeed, to have the
miming of the giuntlrt over and
tin J myself in the suite the physi
cian had promised us.
It proved, however, a far less
formidable ordeal than I had thought.
Wc met only a few people on the
way. and though each paid my bi
zarre appearance the triUite of a
glance, quick, prolonged, furtive or
open, the consciousness of protec
tion which the presence of Dicky
and the physician gave nic sup
ported me so firmly that I reached
the haven of the suite Dr. McDer
mott had secured for n without the
collapse which I secretly had feared
when I started upon my short jour
ney. The little physician gave me a re
storative as soon as the door had
shut behind tis, and spoke authori
tatively to Dicky.
"She is to lie down at once," he
said, "and keep perfectly quiet for
half an hour. After that we'll dis
cuss the matter of the little supper
you were kind enough to propose."
The Doctor Scores.
He left the room somewhat
abruptly, and I felt Dicky's fingers
busy with the fastenings of my cloak
and hat.
"There!" he said masterfully,
flinging them, man-like, in a heap
on the floor. "Those are out of the
way."
He lifted me, bore me to the lilUe
bedroom, and put me carefully ddwn
on the bed, loosened my frock, took
off my shoes, covered me carefully,
and, stooping, kissed me.
"Try to sleep a little," he said
tenderly.
I put up my arms, clasping him
closely, tremuously. '
"I can't sleep," I said, "hut I can
rest here wonderfully, and I do want
you to know how much it means to
me to have you here. I feci so
safe, some way."
"I'll sit outside the cave with my
stone hatchet," he promised lightly,
"and nary another cave man shall
come within howling distance, and
