The Programme of the British LIB
~ erals.

2 Gth 2,if araIs
Having gained a tremendous victory
at the ballot box, the British Liberals are
nov discussing what they shall do with
il, and the latest English reviews are full
of forecasts and proposals put forward
with more or less authority. Which
measures will figure first in the official
programme will depend, no doubt, upon
the issues which the Premier believes to
have been pivotal in the recent election.
Among the writer's in the English re-
views there is an agreement of opinion
that in the counties the Liberal successes
were due mainly to the preaching Of free
trade, the question of Chinese labor in
South Africa having been observed not
to interest audiences in country places,
though education did, next to free trade.
IN cities and towns, on the other hand,
where trade unionism is strong, the
Chinese, labor question had some effect,
though there also free trade was the
paramount issue. In the urban centres,
also, where the Nonconformists are
1 numerous, many votes were given to
Liberal candidates out Of dislike Of the
last Education act, which taxes Nom
e~ontormists for the support Of Anglican
schools as well as the national schools.
A repeal or drastic amendment of that
law Is expected to be n of the first
measures which the Bannerman Govern
ment will try to pass.
Some important legislation is also
projected on behalf of the agricultural
hborcrs, through whose aid the Liberals
achieved such a sweeping success in the
counties. 1t is proposed to give the dis
possessed farmer compensation for i'm
provements made by him which have
added to the value Of the land; and
power Is to be given to county councils
to, acquire land compulsorily for small
holdings, as well as for allotments. A
large scheme is likewise contemplated
Brittle provision OF rural cottages. Also
FsgSErded Htth favor is a national project
al, aqprestation, to be carried out on
i econQmic lines. Grants are also to be
m3deto certain localities to enable them
to deal with specially severe distress.

Texas Girl Speaks to Other
Girls.
A TEXAS GIRL.

October. and having already in
view my IDEAL" | introduced
bIm to the members; but since
that time | have laid claim To that
ideal, aud have become busy,
happy housewife.
| think II is almost every wo-
mans aim in life to be a house
keeper, and to be one means "a
great deal. Woman was never
designed to work in mill, factories
and shops. That they do SO is
the result of conditions which they
cannot control perhaps. L do not
say this because | think they are
not making u success of what they
have undertaken, for they have;
but because l do not think it is
their sphere. There can be no
sphere which is too lofty for wO-
man to ill, and the home should
he the highest of all ambitions. 1t
is place that man cannot fill,
therefore it must be hers alone.
Modern society looks down upon
a girl who works as domestic
why? Are we not all servants
who work, whether in the fields,
in an office, or in a store? think
that every point of view, financial,
social, educational, that girl is
better off in the home than in the
factory. But on account Of the
misconstruction of society girls
choose the greater evil.
First. girls go to work because
they need the money" or some
other good reason, but never with
the intention of remaining iu such
work for all time, as men do. |
believe most girls expect to mar
ry and have a home. When girl
meets the man she can love and
honor she should marry him.
If a man meets girl he likes
he has the right to ask her to be- his
wife. But if a girl meets man
whom she is satiffied would make
her good husband why should
she not be accorded the same pri-
vilege? However, it is not my in
tentiOn to SUCCESS that women
propose, but to point out the in
constituencies of social life and ETH
quet as applied to men and wo-
men. Since women only attract.
what then attracts men to the
point of proposing?
To win a good mans respect es-
chew frivolity. Irreverence in
women is an abomination; respect
for religion attracts. Be chatty,
do not gossip; scandal and evil
speaking never won a good man.
Men are, by instinct, hunting
creatures. The fruit just out of
reach is the fruit they most desire.
L am talking about the men who
are really worth marrying, not the
kind who can be won by brainless
fiattery. The sympathetic " omau
of generous impulses attracts men;
he feels he may trust bis hopes,
his ambitions and his honor, and
that in her he will find the
for whom he is seeking.
A cheerful disposition attracts,
an even temper retains. A fussy
woman may be a prim old maid,
but is probably an untidy wife,
and a man can't live happy with |
such a woman.
