The Last Relic of an Old Custom.

The Last Relic of an Old Custom.
The very same objection which
for many centuries denied women
property or the right Of wages;
which offered neither opportunity
nor encourage nent to the education
of women; which prosecuted the
first women physicians and opposed
the opening Of each new industry
to the women wage Garner is still
obJectiug to giving women the bal
lot.
And what is this objection? An
instructive fear that individual lib.
erty for women will disarrange that
time. honored scheme, once thought
Divine, and defined by Blackstone:
1.-The husband and the wife are
one and that one is the husband.
To maintain this oneness of hus-
band and wife, he once administer
ed her property, collected her
wages and spent her money for her.
He thought for her and acted for
in every capacity possible. lime
has destroyed the old.time oneness,
and now the wife manages her own
affairs and does her own thinking;
but, as a last relic ef anc ent Gus.

He does not do this because he or
any one else supposes for a moment
that be really represents her. He
votes his own opinions, while hers

quick and willing to admit that this

But the average man who still OPP

the other day that he was convinc
ed that the arguments for woman
suffrage could not be answered,
yet confessed that he quaked in hi~
shoes 10 dread of the necessity of

It is man, libtrty-loving, pro
