1.-THE Rights of Women"

By Karl Heinzen. Cloth; PIP. 1885, price: 81;

Book and Stationery company.
The first part of this book, which is
translated from the German, was pub
Hshed in Boston a few years ago and
ran through two editions. The pub
Usher failed and the book was with
drawn from the market. In it's new
form it embraces the second part OF
the original work and bears the title
Rights Of Women and the Sexual Re-
lations. The two parts contain a COM
plete discussion of the subject indicat-
ed and are without affectation or
pedantry. The author has taken as his
motto, Learn to endure everything
only not slavery; learn to dispense with
everything, only not with your self
respect; learn to lose everything, only
not yourself. All else in life is worth
less, delusive and tickle. Mans only
sure support is in himself, in his in
dividuality, resting in his own power
and sovereignty
Perhaps the point in Mr.. Heinzens
treatise is found in the following utter
ance:
Women" he says. must see that
their degradation is founded on the rule
of force, the rule of money, the rule
Of priests. 1t must, therefore, have be-
come clear to them that they cannot
depend on an improvement of their lot
before the liberty and right Of all men
have been attained, the existence Of all
men has been secured and the essence
and dignity Of all men have been recog-
niZed in purely human conceptions.
Everything they can be and wish for
depends on these three points; their
liberty. their rights, their dignity, their
marital happiness, their love, their
education, their everything"

forth such volume. the author de-
clares in a predatory note that it was
his good fortune to know the presi-

his confidential views on national
policy and also his trusted agent in
