lshe had told ME this day or two before)
had urged her to learn as many languages
abroad as possible. So she had come out
to Tivoli not to drink afternoon tea and
enjoy the sunshine. but to study French
verbs out of a grammar instead OF listening
while live people talked Italian. BY the
tfm.; she gets to Paris I suppose she will
have abandoned her French and be read
ing a manual of italian conversation. Her
dress was better than her linguistic meth
DDS. She wore a dainty blouse made of
tucks of pale yellow crepe de chine alter
mating with insertions of lace hemmed with
the crepe. At the neck and down one side
were ribbons of a pretty leaf green. There
are extraordinary quantities of tucks in
this years fashions. This Boston girls
skirt had the fullness at the top adjusted
by up and down tucks all the way around.
The material was leaf green cashmere
and 1t was trimmed with circles of tucks L

queer one. She welcomed the pug in spite

Blue and White Foulnrd.
The middle-sized Honorable Miss looked
eighteen. She had yellow-brown hair and
the palest possible tone of pink in her
cheeks and the tips of her fingers. She
was quieter than her sisters, except under
provocation. She leaned against the wall
behind the Boston girl, and the sun
streamed down upon her smart blue and
white foulard dress with its red touches.

Stimulating a bolero, each piece turned
slightly back and lined with blue The
blouse was of white mousseline de sole,

with rather stiff blue flowers.

The New Woman Very Old.

Andrew Lang In the North American Review.
When our new woman is not proposing
to herself and her readers a reversion to
the ancient system Of polyandry ION which

shrink from the atrocious and oppressive
male sex. She is not so new but that Mrs.
Mary Astell was before her. in 170a. Mrs.
Mary proposed a sort of female college,
in which ladies nauseating the parade Of
the world might find happy retirement"
Queen Anne meant to endow this establish
ment, but Bishop Burnet persuaded her
that it savored of popery Sir Walter Scott
(who had nothing new about him) speaks

ious to confound the boundaries which ma

Mrs. Mary in the Taller (No. 32). But the

Mongolians In Hawaii.

The Chronicle says that the Unit
ed States sis not in the business OF
restoring native dynasties in Hs
wall" Very true. But the Chroni-
Gle seems to think that we have
gone into the business of deposing
native dynasties and refusing to peo-
pie outside our legitimate jurisdic-
ton the right to select and maintain
their own form Of government. In
other words that paper makes pro-
clamation that we have joined the
"pirate nations" in overthrowing
small governments and stealing the
birthright Of sovereignty. This view
Of the mission of the United States
is novel and implies a reversal of the
policy of this Government.
The Chronicle says it happens to
know that native in Hawaii pro.
posed that Liliuokalani should
marry Japanese prince, and re-
CARDS that as sufficient pretext for
the seizure OF the islands.
In 1883 the Chronicle says that
the introduction Of Mongolians into
Hswaii had forever untitled it for
annexation to this country, and that
the prevalence of leprosy there
would compel the Pacific Coast to
petition for close quarantine
against all Hawaiian sugar, rice and
all articles OF domestic production.
This is what would be done il it
were cholera, or plague, or yellow
fever, and the leprosy is worse than
all these combined"
To-day there are ten times as
many Mongols and more leprosy in
Hawaii, but the Chronicle says: eff
the annexation treaty does not pass
the Senate the Dole Government
will simply hold its place until a
friendlier Senate is chosen, or until,
being finally assured Of abandon
ment by the United States, it opens
a political trade with England"
Suppose the Dole Government try
the experiment of giving back to
the people OF Hawaii the ballot of
which it has robbed them by force,
and then submit itself to the deci-
sion Of the people as the Govern
ment OF the United States did more
than hundred years ago; as the
Latin; American republics did after
the revolutions melted by Simon
Bolivar, and as the United States of
Brazil did after the expulsion of
Dom Pedro2 YES
Mr. Dole's devotion to republican
institutions and regard for the rights
OF men is finely brought out in the
threat that he will make "a political
trade with England"
Mr.. Dole has planted his petty
oligarcy in the Monroe hemisphere,
where small and hypoeritical tyrants
who rob the people of their fran
chise are not permitted to make a
political trade OF a stolen birthright
to England No doubt he would
offer such trade, but we venture
the prediction that England would
at once report it to the United States
and refuse to accept what he has
no right to give.
The annexation treaty is doomed,
and Mr.. Dole will have to try the
experiment of running a Govern
ment based upon the assent of 2 per
cent Of the governed.-S. r. Call.
