If 'a not possible within tho limits of an article to glvo tho history of woman throughout the ages; but few reader! of the Yale Review reed to be remind ed that she is by far the moro tyrannical tyran-nical of the two sexes and that whenever when-ever pecular circumstances uncommon uncom-mon strength of character or a keen driving Intellect have given her pow er no matter how sparadic or limited she, has used It ruthlessly. Even In the small world of the home, the moment mo-ment a woman discover that her own weaknesses aro less ingenuous and un controllable than her husband's her coolnoss and patience greater, her wit kconer, or that sho can club him mentally men-tally with her temper then Is the man lost.
