Drastic knH-G Ga milling Law.

Some Little time ago the Belgian
chamber OF deputies passed a some
what drastic anti gam bling law. The.
bill has reached the upper house, and
is being discussed in somewhat
aefimenious tone, and meeting caIlsid-
cradle opposition. Some of the sem
aLars point ont that gambling, is in
herent to human nature, and that IL
the law were carried into effect 1t;
would tend TO foster clandestine,
gambling houses on an extensive scale.
This argument has been put forward.
before, but where the shoe really.
pinches seems to lie in the fact that.
the fashionable watering place of Os-.
tend would be the principal sufferer.
The casino there ranks with the FAM.
Dus gambling hell at Monte Carlo, and
many Of the senator's are said to be.
financially interested, and hence their
opposition. It is claimed that If the
casino were abolished the loss to the
toWn would lie between $500, 900 and
$4,000, geo, and that most OF the public
works now in progress would have TO
be abandoned as they were undertaken
on the strength Of the revenues da~
naYed from the gaming tables.

Of beautiful dark hair; she also had a

Treatment Of Women in Former TImes.
From the subversion Of the Roman
Empire to the fourteenth or fifteenth
century women spent most of their
time alone, almost entire strangers to
the joys Of social life; they. seldom
went abroad, but to be spectators nf

who introduced women on public DAYS
to court; before his time nothing was
to be seen at any of the courts OF FIJI
rope but gray-bearded politicians,
plotting the destruction Of the rights
and liberties Of mankind, and warriors
clad in complete armor, ready to NIT
their plots in execution. In the thir-

even cleanliness was hardly consid-
