[112] We are irresistibly reminded, in this connexion, of the
reputed higher morality of age as compared with youth, of which
La Rochefoucauld says (Maxim 192): "When our vices leave us, we
flatter ourselves that it is we who leave them."--TRANSLATOR'S
NOTE.

Disorders.

[115] The custom of taking in a man as a night-lodger in crowded
working-class tenements appears, unhappily, to be commoner in the
large towns of Germany and Austria than it is in this country.
See, for instance, Adelheid Popp's _Jugendgeschichte einer
Arbeiterin_ (3rd ed., Reinhardt, Munich, 1910, pp. 19, 20). But
such lodgers are by no means unknown in the overcrowded quarters
of English towns.--TRANSLATOR'S NOTE.

[117] Compare George Meredith on the male egoist's demand for
"innocence" (_The Egoist_, p. 105): "The capaciously strong soul
among women will ultimately detect an infinite grossness in the
demand for purity infinite, spotless bloom." The frequency with
which young widows remarry suggests that the demand for
_"innocence"_ in women is largely "a result of conventional
opinions."--TRANSLATOR'S NOTE.
