SIXTEEN TO ONE.

Down by the sad sea waves, with
woe in her face, stood woman di-
vinely fair.
ssSixteen to one" she cried, as che
paced the damp white sand and lodged
the incoming swell.
Her hair was golden in the sun
light, but this fact seemed to have no
effect whatever upon her views.
s'Sixteen to one! she cried again
and again, and the sadness OF the
waves was as naught compared with
the Undesirable sadness that filled
her voice and started the tears in her
beautiful eyes.
Furling her parasol with an angry
snap, she thrust the more pointed end
against the soft sand and slowly
traced few letters and figures at her
feet.
"Sixteen to one !" was the sentence
that stared her in the face when her
task was done.
"My whole soul cries out against
it |" she murmured, her tcars flowing
more freely. sit is unnatural, it is
not what we want, it is outrageous,
and should never find q permanent
place in the United States nor in any
other country, by international agree
ment or otherwise. 1t has been that
way ever since ] arrived. Sixteen
women tc one man! The idea! Why
didn't remain at home ?"-Harper's
Bazaar,
