While brothers and sis ters continue to be born, it will be safest and best that men and women should ba-associated in all the affairs of life. They need each otner. Not that either is superior to the other ; men are not so much wiser than women, nor women so much nobler than men ; it is only that they were originaliy meant ; to live together, and it is several thousand or several hundred thousand years too late to improve that arrangement. Men are bad enough, tio doubt ; but as Aunt Chide rerriarks in " Dred," " Dey's enuff sight better than nuf fin." On .the other hand, women are often weak and sily, and that de lightful shrew, Mrs. Powser, is oblige ed to -admit, in " Adam Bede," "I'm not denyin' that women are foolish ; God Almighty made them to match the men."
