These young women, with the new complications obtruded by them, irritated a benevolent great governing lady, who had married off her daughters and embraced her grandchildren, comfortably finishing that chapter; and beheld now the apparition of the sex's ancient tripping foe, when circumstances in themselves were quite enough to contend against on their behalf.
It was not that he was callous to the generous nature of the little Friend of the Flag, or that he was insensible either to the courage that beat so dauntlessly in her pulses, or to the piquant, picturesque grace that accompanied even her wildest actions; but she had nothing of her sex's charm for him. He thought of her rather as a young soldier than as a young girl.
"Why, that's quite wonderful!" cried Ruth, smiling again at the boy. "It was awfully rash of you, Aggie, but it was providential this this You haven't told me his name?" "Why! I don't know it myself," confessed Agnes. "And after all he did for you!" exclaimed Ruth, in admonition. "Aw it wasn't anything," growled the boy, with all the sex's objection to being thought a hero.
The Petticoat is a kind of Incumbrance upon it, and if the Amazons should think fit to go on in this Plunder of our Sex's Ornaments, they ought to add to their Spoils, and compleat their Triumph over us, by wearing the Breeches.
Her art had not only placed her below the level of her sex's morality, it had lifted her above any embarrassment of accident, and as she hesitated for a single smiling minute in the doorway, she appeared more at home in her surroundings than either of the two women who stood, in silence, awaiting her advance.
"If you always knew what a man's wife thought about him, you'd know a great deal," said Mrs. Baxter. She possessed in the fullest degree her sex's sense of an ultimate superiority in perception; men knew neither what their wives did nor what they were; wives might not know what their husbands did, but they always knew what they were.
'Constance can scarcely be his dupe so far, I should think. 'How do you mean? 'Everything points to one secret of his conduct. 'A woman? Lady Wathin's head shook for her sex's pained affirmative. Mr. Quintin in the same fashion signified the downright negative. 'The fellow's as cold as a fish. 'Flattery will do anything. There is, I fear, one. 'Widow? wife? maid?
What could be more interesting than the revolt of woman against "chivalry" in chivalry's old home and seat? That curious phenomenon was going on in Cally's town now, though acuter social critics than she had quite failed to discover it.... Far rumors of her sex's strange activities reached Cally, and she listened, but with apathy.
What woman ever saw the man she loved out of temper without seeking to pour oil upon the troubled waters, even at the risk of being charged with her sex's constitutional curiosity? for an attempt to soothe includes a desire to fathom the secret cause of annoyance. If there be women who are not stirred by impulses of this kind they are cast in moulds the very opposite to that of Bertha.
Do men ever turn out better than that in America or elsewhere? Here is a remark to the other sex's credit, too I take it from the official report: "A feature of the election was the orderliness and sobriety of the people. Women were in no way molested." At home, a standing argument against woman suffrage has always been that women could not go to the polls without being insulted.
