Women Who Shave.

"Did you ever shave a woman" was
the queer question put to an uptown

thing like chin beard, and | have op-
perated on both. kinds. shaved the
upper lip of lady yesterday afternoon

this occasion. Some of them who are

few at time, till they get rid of the
whole growth, and there is now an
electrical way of removing them with
out pain from any part of the face, but
i know of ladies who get BARRIERS TO
shave them at times, and others who
can shave themselves just like men.

Women in Belgium.

Belgium is not so far progressive as
are most of its contemporaries. The
supreme court OF that country recently
decided that women cannot be admitted
to the bar. The judges took the time
worn, stereotyped view-namely that
women have other duties To perform.
and that the laws and customs OF the
country did not allow a woman TO exer-
else the profession Of II barrister. Com
menting on this decision the London
Standard says: The right of the law
and the customs OF the country to de-
eide what are the social duties OF any
particular class of the community is an
act OF usurpation which is indefensible.
The career open TO all talents is a
formula which should not be limited
by the sex of those who possess the
talents. The tools TO him who could
use them'-or 10 her-and II women
can plead effectually at the bar why in
the name of goodness should they not
do so?"-Exchange.

IT was glorious evening,
The moon was full and bright,
The air was soft aud halmy--
A perfect August night.
Across the park they wandered,
A young man and a maid,
He was little timid.
She, not bit afraid.
The walks were half-deserted
CThe hour was growing late);
Fond lovers on the benches
Were sitting tete a-tete.
The sweet perfume Of flowers
Weighed down the evening breeze;
The electric light shone brightly
Among the dark stemmed trees.
"Now. isn't this delightfulw
The simple young man said;
''These lights among The foliage,
The full moon overhead"
She hesitated slightly.
Then & anCed about the park.
