It is while they are in one of the waves of de pression that an impulse comes to them to take their lives and they obey it. It they could have been tided over the depression wave they would probably have been all right
"If the same person who jumps into the sea and is drowned had happened to feel the impulse while crossing West- minster Bridge he would have swum ashore, for the water would have refresh ed his mind.”
Introspection.
Another famous doctor who has made a special study of psychology informed a Daily Express representative that jump- ing into the sea and from heights results purely from nerves, self-consciousness, and introspection.
Because their thoughts are concen- trated on themselves," he said, "they feel an overwhelming appeal from the

ARE WOMEN THE BRAVER SEX? |
ROSITA FORBES SAYS "NO."
"MORE RECKLESS."
Women are physically braver than men, recently declared Fannie Hurst, the famous American novelist.
"They may not be so strong physical ly, but they don't go home every time they have a cold.”
She supported her statement by quoting a doctor, who told her, on one occasion, that her husband was not nearly so i na he thought he was, and her opinion. was endorsed by a London dentist.
"Women are certainly braver than men, as far as my experience goes," the dentist said to a representative of the Daily Expres. "You have only to spend a day in a dentist's operating room to know that. Men make ma tired some timea with their feara and their cowardice,
"I do not think that women are braver than men," she said. "Women are more reckless and more adventurous, but men's courage is more reasoned. If I were in tight corner I should want a man to help me, not a woman,
Women's daring is sometimes mag- nificent while it lasts, but it doesn't last long. Women's courage is more in- will raab in to anything that incites stinctive, like that of an animal. They them to daring, but they have not the courage that holds on. For instance, they could not stand the continnens ordes of the trenches. Their nerves would give way, because they have greater imagination than men, and the fear. greater the imagination the greater the

Maay men famous for their adventures and explorations believe that women are at least as brave as men.
