Yes. Well. when it is ready to come

snowdrop is curled safe inside, and the
hard, white point OF the leaf pushes

The average population Of the United States Is
twentyone persons to the square mile. The average
population of the proposed state Of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory are approximately densey populated
as Minnesota, Arkansas Or Maine.
Okahomas population in the last ten years increased
900 per cent With statehood in force people familiar
with the conditions in the territories believe it will
be 1000 per cent ia the next decade
The density Of population in the proposed new state
OF Arizona is 26s per square mile. These territories
have more people proportion to area than either the
states Of Nevada Montana Idaho or Wyoming. But up

14O5, committed to paper her thoughts
on the behavior of women, under the
title OF instructions for the Inner
Apartments, l. e., for women. These
are arranged under 20 headings. says
the Nineteenth Century, with an addi-
tional chapter on the education of girls.
The empress lays much stress on gentle
ness, good temper, economy, kind treat
ment OF the young and OF relatives, but
thinks that speech unrestrained is the
real rock upon which most women split.
IF your mouth Is like closed door
your words will become proverbial; but
if 1t is like a running tap no heed will
be paid to what you say"
In her additional chapter on educa-
tlon, which is really more or less dog
gerel poem OF about $50 lines. our au-
thoress will be considered very disap-
pointing by some. So far from pleading
for higher education for Chinese women,
she urges only that a girls governess

to show jealousy but rather satisfaction
IL her husband takes a subordinate wife.
Supposing that he dies before her. she
will be left like earth without its heaven,
and must transfer her dependence to her
son and summon up her resolution to
face widowhood until death. Mount

to walk over sharp edged swords, but
this resolve must not pass from her.
