Examine the profile of Finland on any map of Russia. You will discoy- CT the outline of young woman in a spirited posture. the right arm thrust out toward the Arctic ocean, skirts discreetly lifted out of Lake Ladoga and the Finnish gulf, the left foot advanced toward St Petersburg. As the Films say themselves. their country is a danseuse who snaps her fingers at Scandinavia and kicks Rus sia in the face. We'll. Finland is full filling the prophecy of its contour, says an exchange. It took early ad- vantage of the Cars manifesto of October. 1905. with its restoration of autonomy, and opened the suffrage to women. At the recent election they voted in larger numbers than men. When the national parliament meets. nineteen out of 1ss deputies will be women. and the second presi- dent of the body will be chosen from among their number. Perhaps there is a suggestion of that defiant snap of the fingers pictured upon the map in the fact that eleven out of the nineteen women are socialists who are going to work for Iiberalizing marriage and divorce and who share presumably the socialists advanced views of the marriage relation At any rate. this is what one of their number says. "No law, religion or custom should bind a woman to a man And many a danseuss has said as much.

Women and Raruains.

A great deal has been said and written about the evil done by wom- ans love of "a bargain" personally we do not think this has much to do with the sweating system. On the contrary. we firmly believe that the women of England will only be too glad to pay a good price for the things which they buy when they can have the assurance that the goods have been produced under good con ditions and the makers fairly remu- nerated.-Church Quarterly Review.
