"The legislative assembly of New
Sonth Wales, it is announced, has
passed the third reading of the wom-
ems franchise BILL" says the London
Daily News. in this matter Australia
follows in the footsteps of New Zea-
land and shows once more the strong
and spirited instinct for progress and
experiment, wise or unwise, which re-
sides in our empire when it is saga
ciously let alone. Evidently we do not
believe in equal rights everywhere
except in the country where we make
war for them. SO far as any deduc-
tions can be drawn from the case OF
New Zealand, 1t is chiefly remarkable
for the fact that the reform has enter
ed quietly and harmlessly into the ma
tiOlal life, doing neither the lurid evil
that was prophesied by its opponents
nor the seraphic good that was proph-
esied by its prophets. The notion
that women, if they had a vote, would
leave behind ruined mansions and
starving babies in order to haunt the
polling stations day and night in the
hope of voting continuously in lieu of
all other occupations displayed very
little Knowledge of the feminine tenn
permanent. 1t is questionable whether
any number of seats in parliament
would soon cure women of their con-
tempt for politics. But, on the other
hand, almost equal harm has been
done to the cause by those idealists of
women's suffrage who have represent
ed that the moment women We're
emancipated evil itself would wither
off the earth and laws would be passed
against tobacco and clubhouses."

"The hair should never be cut at all.
1t makes it bleed and Injuries and hard
ems it. 1t should be singed always"
"At every new moon"
"The moon may control the tide, but
not the hair. No; every three months
is often enough.
"The hair should be light and free on
the head. 1t should have air and not
be plastered down fiat. To shuttle it is
food for it, for the hair can rest that
way. The hair should always be brush
ed little before it is combed out, for
comDing hair breaks and bruises the
roots more than does anything else"
"And at night?'
"Ah, at night" says madam-"at
night the hair should be put in very
loose braids or even allowed to hang
over the pillow. But never should it be
left dressed and in coils to the head.
Then it will have no air, no freedom,
and it will be like plant kept always

"Yes, any woman can have beautiful
hair. But glorious hair is a gift from

An Odd New Game.

In European fashionable circles
new game will soon become popular, if
one may judge by the enthusiasm that
greeted it when played "A few days
ago for the first time at a large festi-
val given by Il wealthy landed pro-
prietor in England.
1t is known as "the necktie race"
The players are horsemen, and. as in
an ordinary race, each strives to be
first at a distant goal. Midway be-
tween the starting point and goal, how
ever, are several ladies, and each
horseman as he reaches them is bound
to dismount hand the reins to a groom,
have his necktie tied by one of the la
dies and then mount again and race
for the goal. Before the race begins
each horseman selects the lady whom
he desires I'd favor him III this manner,

Surveys made in constructing the
northern railroad of Guatemala have
unearthed wonderful sculptured stones,
ed with a text which probably tells
the story or purpose of their erection.
Most OF them are rectangular, thirty
to forty feet long. The ruins cover a
large area, and it is presumed that
they are the remains of an ancient city.
AS was the case with the Egyptians,
these primitive peoples had marvellous
ability to handle great stones and lift
them into position. The same work
taxes the engineering resources of the
men of today.

HOlIand'A War.

Holland is conducting war in Su.
matra that has been going on with
more or less violence since 1870 and is
not by any means ended yet. Tho
Dutch exercise a suzerainty over the
island, but the sultan made an attempt
to throw off this influence. Originally
the Netherlands only wanted to restore
matters to their former state, but since
then they have determined on the is
lands complete subjugation. In this
effort they have already spent over
S200000,000, and the Sumatrans say
they have only begun TO fight.

Man and Woman.

The human animal finds in the oppo-
site sex the greater part of his and her
menta life. The arts rose out of sex.
When man ceased to capture woman,
he cut reed and blew a tune to win
her, and it was not until he had won
her that he began to take an interest
in the tune for its own sake.
Physical intlmacies are but surface
emotions, forgotten as soon as they are
satisfied, whereas spiritual intimacies
live in the heart. They are part of our
eternal life and seem to reach beyond
the stars.-George Moore's "Sister Te-
HeSa."

Women at st. Louis Exposition.

Missouri clubs are much occupied
with plans for the memorial which the
clubwomen Of the Louisiana Pur-
chase State" promises to erect in 1908
at the St Louis exposition. The project
most favored is that the memorial take
the form of an Industrial normal
school The suggestion comes from the
Marshall Monday club, the largest club
in the state outside of Kansas City and
St Louis. The plan was presented at
the convention of federated clubs re-
tently held in Kansas City. The nor
nal school would include a course In
education for motherhood and instruc-
ton in Kindergarten methods, cooking
manual training and kindred topics.

WOMAN CONQUEREDA BULL
Stood StlII as n Statue, and the Great
Beast Was Awed.


Beast Was Awed.
A few weeks ago there appeared
some alluring advertisements which
We're especially attractive to those
Parsians who love excitement and who
had had their appetite for such things
tickled by the races Of the Rue Per
golese.
The attraction this time was wo-
man, Donna Tancreda, who, made up
to resemble statue, was to await, mo-
tionlcss in tie arena, the charge of the
bull and to conquer 1t by her immobil-
ity.
At the last moment this perform.
ance, which was to have taken place ut
Enghien. was forbidden. 1t did, how.
ever, take place in Roubsix.
Here is an exact account of what
happened at the "suerte' of the statue:
At given signal from the president
the door of the arena opened, and n
magnificent carriage appeared, all
draped in red velvet fringed with gold.
In this carriage sat Senorita Mercedes
del Barte. alias Donna Tancreda.
The Queen of Valor" was dressed
completely in white. Her face and
her hair were powdered. The carriage
stopped just in front Of the presiding
party and she got out, smiling and
bowing, and threw off her mantle. talk
ing with the ushers while the attend
ants arranged in the middle of the
arena pedestal of wood about two
feet high.
When all was ready, the imprcsario
addressed the public and begged them
to observe the most rigorous silence
during the performance. This was in
dispensable.
Then Donna Tancreda mounted the
pedestal, helped by the matadores.
She crossed her arms and faced the
door from which the bull was to
emerge.
The woman looked exactly like a
marble statue. The arena was empty
All the ushers had disappeared behind
the barriers and shelters. The deep
est silence reigned in the vast amphi-
theater.
Half a minute passed thus.
Then the door opened, and in the
shadow showed the enormous head of
the bull Gitano. The spectators hard
ly breathed Many Of the women COW
cred their eyes with their hands. 1t
was terrible moment.
The bull was a superb animal, with
Il powerful neck and long, straight
horns. He raised his head, looked
around and at once bounded toward
the white statue.
Donna Tancreda was as rigid as
marble The least movement would
have been fatal to her.
The bull started back, looked at his
strange adversary and then with Il ter
rible bound rushed up to the pedestal.
Anxiety was at its height. But once
more the bull stopped short without
striking.
He drew back few feet. and, taking
advantage of this, Donna Tancreda
jumped down and rushed behind
screen, while the ushers drew off the
bull
The people breathed again. A long
sigh escaped from all, and then thun-
ders of applause We're heard, and the
Queen of Nalor' received tremen-
Gus ovation.

Paris. has appeared with success at
