Men who hate women are simply suffering from an overdose. Knox was a woman-hater who always had one especially attractive woman upon his list, with intent to make of her a Presbyterian. In this he was as steadfast as the leader of a colored camp-meeting. Mary, Queen of Scots, had no more landed on Scottish soil from Catholic France than Knox fled, fearing for his head.
So he was now a divorce', and a declared woman-hater; railed on them, and kept them at arm's-length, Fanny Dover included. It was really comical to see with what perfect coolness and cynical apathy he parried the stealthy advances of this cat-like girl, a mistress in the art of pleasing when she chose. Inside the room, on a couch of crimson velvet, sat a young lady of rare and dazzling beauty.
For five years, until just before he sailed for his three years of duty in the Philippines, he succeeded not only in not looking, but in building up for himself such a fine reputation as a woman-hater that all women were crazy about him. Had he not been ordered to Agawamsett that fact would not have affected him.
"Why don't he come in?" questioned Abe, waving back a greeting as well as he could with the treasured cup in one of his hands and the saucer in the other; whereupon Sarah Jane, that ugly duckling, explained that the fellow, being a confirmed woman-hater, cooked all his own meals in the smokehouse, and insisted upon all his orders being left on a slate outside the tool-house door.
He had become the gravest of the grave, his cheery laugh was heard no more, and the baffled young belles of Charleston had voted him a confirmed woman-hater; though his melancholy, handsome face, graceful person, distinguished bearing, and high station might have enabled him to pick and choose where he would. But there was room in his heart for no more passions.

The rose-flush on Marie's cheek spread to the roots of her fine yellow hair. "Billy, dear, he he didn't!" "Marie, dear he he did!" Marie laughed.
"Well," he said judicially, "since you drag it from me, I think perhaps it is. You you're such a confirmed woman-hater that I hardly knew how you would take it." "Nothing of the sort," I denied testily. "Because a man reaches the age of thirty without making maudlin love to every "
A row of soubrettes rollicked in and out again in a flash of bushy skirts. "Say, look at the third one from this end with the black curls all bobbing. I'm for her!" "Where?" "Gone now!" Mr. Kahn leaned across his singing glass, his eye quickened into a wink. "Old man, you can pull that woman-hater stuff on the home folks, but it takes your brother-in-law to lead you to the live ones. Eh?"
After visiting with Beth for a few moments, Silvia and I withdrew to talk matters over confidentially. "All's well that ends well," I quoth. "It hasn't ended yet," reminded Silvia. "I trust Ptolemy didn't reveal what you said about Rob's being a woman-hater and Beth a flirt." Ptolemy conveniently appeared just then, as he generally did in the midst of private interviews.
"That's original!" laughed the lieutenant. "You are a woman yourself, and such a woman-hater!" "A woman . . ." smiled Susanna. "It's not my fault that God has cast me into this mould, is it?
