wee women and men. A test case was
made when the young son of a sport
ing earl whirled his car through Hyde
Park at the top speed possible with
the toy automobilesAfour miles an
hour. His father contended that as
the lordling's nurse walked beside the
carriage with a red silk handkerchief
in her hand, the vehicle technically
was a traction engine, and in that way
the laws requirement was met. Sir
Francis Jeune; the eminent English
jurist, is wrestling with the problem.
Women writers on both sides the
water are ready to rend the English
literary critic, Courtney, for daring
to declares them inferior to their
brothers of the pen even in one re-
spect. They are not Modified by his
concession that they excel men in the
finer character studies. He has braved
fate with the assertion that along
broader lines they cannot compete with
the male author, SO his doom is sealed

He says he speaks as one having au-
