submission to the people would be

We are advised by the City Attor.

Your Committee does not desire to

Everybody complains that there does

but it did i'm Paris. Fcur-dfths of all

THE AMERICAN WOMAN IN
THE FAR EAST.

An interesting letter from a Japan
csc gentleman of high position IA Tokyo
70 an American friend in Chicago who
had lost his vile, appears in the current
issue of the Army and Navy Journal.
The letter is couched in terms that
would do credit 20 an educated Ameri-
can, and the sentiment is deeply and
naturally sympathetic.
Thus, in deploring with his friend the
loss of his wife, the japanese writes
that he called his four sons and, taking
a picture OF the wife. offered flowers
and burned incense and addressed the
picture. impressing upon his sons the
high type of character OF the dead
woman, saying among other things:
"You have Iefto me very strong i'm

womsnhood and Of a matroniy char
acter of the sweetest kind. Among the

you were one of the few who impressed
me as being fully up 10 the standard OF
womauhood generally understood among
us"
Here. in new way. js suggested a
disregard of the pTejudices Of the Far
East by American women missionaries
and others, which must Inevitably tend
to lower MS in the minds OF these PEG

explanation of his standard of woman
