fury the supporters of the reigning families
in Italy have declared the Italians unfit
for freedom and, meanwhile by their
laws, and by the brute force of hireling
armies, they close every path through
which We might overcome the obstacles TO
our improvement, where such really exist,
as If tyranny could ever be a means of
educating men for liberty.
We men have ever been, and still are,
guilty of a similar crime towards woman.
Avoid even the semblance of this crime;
there is none heavier in the sight of God,
for it divides the human family into two
classes and imposes the subjugation of
one class to the other. In the sight of God
the Father, there is neither man nor wo-
man. There is only the human being, that
being in whom, whether the form be male
or female, those characteristics which dis
tinguish humanity from the brute creation
are united-namely, the social tendency,
and the capacity for education and pro-
gress. Wherever these characteristics eX-

The New York Sun tells the following
story about up-to-date girls who have re-
turned to the methods of their grand
mothers; the puzzled tobacco clerk told it
to his customer:
Business was lax, and it was too hot to
work. anyway. We were just laying a bet
as to which we'd rather be doing, Staying
Spaniards with the boys in Cuba or killing
time where we were, when all of a sudden
a girl came into the shop. She was a
swell; you could hear her skirt rustic all
over. like a ghost, you know. And she
was pretty, too. l supposed she was after
cigars for some poor fellow, and was about
TO bring out our most expensive and
worst sort, when what do you think she
asked for? Clay pipes. And she wanted
the penny kind, too. Now, We only keep
two sorts-10-cent.a apiece ones and the
two for a cent. But she wanted only
one. and nothing could induce her to take
two.
" It's no economy to burden yourself
with something that you have no use for
she said. Economy doesn't mean cheap
ness. but utility.
'"Those Were her very words. They
kinder knocked the argument out of
fellow. OF course it's policy to make as
much out of a trade as possible; but I
wanted Nef 10 get tne worth OF neF money.
But she had a viii of her own, she did,
and what's more, she broke the bowl off
of the one that she took and asked if she
might leave il with US, as she only wanted
the stem. And she put that stem into her
purse-a gold purse it was. all done up in
pearls-and went out Now, what I'd like
TO know is, what did she want with that
stem? She couldn't smoke with it or use
it for soap bubbles. II is some new fad
for a lemonade stick?"
1t is not always wise to give an opin-
ion when you are ignorant, so the Gus
toner kept silent but he thought very
hard. And by and by, when he passed
! hair dresser's establishment, he was bless
ed with an Inspiration. He entered and
inquired If there was anything that fash
ionable girl could use a clay pipe stem
for

safed the owner; mot If she was one of
those up-to-date ones. But If she
wasn't'-here an expression of pitfying
boredom came on his face-'if she wasn't,
she might possibly use it to curl her hair
with"
The customer thanked him and went

when it was his good fortune to meet an

quainted He did not wish to be rude and
he did not banker to let her suspect that

what the hairdresser had just told him.
"All nonsense" she averted He

Now, it's the up-to-date girls that do
