Man and Wife Struggle For su-
prenacy,

In the first year of marriage there
is usually a struggle for supremacy
between the wife and husband. The
strongest prevails. whether man or
woman. The peasant women are always
busy. They seem a fixed attachment
to the carts drawn by dogs: they are
everywhere upon the streets-the wO-
men and the dogs. At q pension in
Antwerp last year there were two Eng
lish spinsters. One of them Sagely re-
marked that it was good idea to work
the dogs and she thought it was a pity
that the cats could not be put at it also
This was said with due regard for the
feline race, for she had raised several
generations of cats with affectionate

phere if the top of the box-like cart
is open. which it is most of the time
At the market places the women sit
or stand for hours, and at the street
corners, selling different kinds of pro-
duce. One night in Antwerp I saw
three girls drawing a heavy cart filed
with freshly Numbered clothes carry

assisted by dogs. When not doing hard

told in a number of anecdotes. Thus
when the Revolutionary war ended Jones
saw that whale oil was selling at a very

that the war had stopped all fishing,
the oil was selling at extraordinary prices
Accordingly Jones. who had kept track of
