IIE "Linger-lohRer-Lncy” tendencies of winter have at last been subjugated by the “fiat” of SPRING. • Yotir indecision about what to wear and wh>re to get it will be displaced by the decision of the mercury to take a steady climb towards the high figures in the tube.

O O00000O00000000O0OO0OO000Q Is It true that woman, after she his attained what she most wants, rsfuses to be satisfied and keeps on wanting more? A bachelor friend of my ac quaintance says It Is, and some others 1 know, mainly women, say It is not And yet, pursuing my Inquiries for several days I have come to the con' elusion that women as a class are never satisfied. If you are a woman you know this la true. Also, If you are a married man you have guessed It ere this. I suppose It Is born In woman, just as curiosity and the love of finery and motherhood and some other things are born In her. I never could understand why, but I suppose It was because Mother Eve, after she had gained pos session of the apple, kept on wanting things, and we are but following In her footsteps. We can't help It, that’s all there Is about IL The woman who Is poor always thinks she would be perfectly happy It she were rich. Just moderately rich. She wouldn't care about belng-a mil lionaire, or anything of that sort, but she would like to be comfortably well off, say a hundred thousand. And while her husband Is working and working away for dear life she Is In dulging In day dreams of what she will do when she reaches the one hundred thousand mark. And when she has reached the stage where she can take a carriage Instead of a street car, can order a meal at the fashionable restaurant without looking at the prices of the dishes, can go Into the largest dry goods store In town and have her purchases charged, she begins to think how nice It would be If she was the wife of a millionaire. Only one million; she wouldn’t want to be a Rockefeller or a Hetty Green, but just a millionaire, with a steam yacht and a garage full of automobiles, and a house at Newport, and a racing stable, perhaps. Finally he gets the million, after, saving and struggling, and working harder then any man on earth ought to work. His wife’s ambi tion forces 'him on, and on, until his very mind turns Into money. Still the woman Is dissatisfied. A million Is not .enough. Neither would ten millions or twenty millions be enough, for Is she not a women? When she has reached that height to which she has been looking forward, when she can order what she wants, and know that there Is. money enough to buy everything In the world, almost till she is dissatisfied. She sits down upon the wreck of her ambition, and what does she sigh for? More money? Where Is the use In sighing for that? She has more now than she could spend in a lifetime. She sighs for the old life, when she and her hue bawl were poor—when they lived In a modest way. when she herself set the table,.cooked the meals and did all the work of the little home except washing and Ironing. She tells herself she would be per fectly happy back In the little home. Until the day she dies she Is dissat isfied. Always searching for the unat tainable, never content. What's the reason? I just asked a man friend of mine and he says It’s a disease that Is hereditary, that originated in the Garden of Eden. Is It that, or is It curiosity?

When the causes are examined that led to the successive ruin of the va rious peoples with which history Is concerned, whether the. people In ques tion be the Persians, the Romans or any other nation, the .fundamental fac tor In their fall Is always found to be a change In their mental constitution re sulting from a deterioration of their character. I can not call to mind a single people that has disappeared In consequenco of the deterioration of Its Intelligence. For all the civilisations of the post, the mechanism of dissolution has been Identical—so Identical. Indeed, that It ■nay be asked, with the poet, whether history, which has so many books, has but a single page. When a people reaches that degree of civilisation and power ut which It Is assured that It Is no longer expostd to the attacks of Its neighbors, It beglni to enjoy the benefits of pence and ma terial well-being procured by wealth. At this juncture the military virtues decline, the excess of civilisation cre ates new needs, and egotism Increases, Having no Ideal beyond the hasty en joyment of rapidly acquired wealth, the citlsens abandon to the state the care of public affairs and soon loss all the qualities that made them great. Then barbarian or seml-barbarlan neighbors, whose needs are few. but who are strongly attached to an Ideal, tnvnde the too civilised people and prr.. ceed to form a new civilisation with the ■lebrls of that which they have over thrown. In this way It was that, In spite of the formidable organisations of the Ro mans and Persians, the barbarians de stroyed the empire of the former and the Arabs that of the latter. Also, our hyper-refined civilisations of today are In danger from similar reasons, but also from othsr causes, due to the evolution produced In men’s minds by modern scientific dlscoverteo. Bclence lisa renewed our Ideas and deprived our religious and social con ceptions of all authority. It has shown man the 'trifling place he occupies In the universe and tho utter Indifference of nature toward him. He haa perceived that what he used Albany, N. Y„ April 23.—Recent se rious charges of the manner of admin-.

Visible decadence seriously threatens, the vitality of the majority of the great* white nations, and especially of those) known as the Latin nations, and really; Latin nations.
