The progress of science in these

1t is curious fact that many of ths

THE WOMAN PROBLEM.

Orchard Linthicum in \. Y. World
SIC belonged to many culture cubs
Both ethical and physical;
In Analysing Brownings stuff
Her point of view was quizzical:
In discussing moral topics
She was always most impressive;
In reforming and uplifting
She was all to the progressive.
Her set was most exclusive
In the very best society
And her mental convolutiOns
Were of infinite variety;
She was strong for wOmens suffrag
AS a means of civic purity,
And her labors were uncessing
For the good of all futurity
But despite of all her ethics
And despite Ler proud position,
Mr. Loeb and his Inspectors
Put her through an inquisition,
And they took her up for smuggling
Shameful! Horrid! Persecution.
o woman. you are still the creates
Problem for solution.

It is estimated that something like 100 acres of peat bog, in the vicinity of Lordshop Park, are on fire. The late rains have had no effect upon the fire. Clouds of smoke continue to rise, and the air is penetrated with a peculiar and subtle perfume. While there is no danger from the fire, it will nevertheless do much damage, as it destroys the soil and renders it un- fit for cultivation. Some means should be taken to prevent it from spreading.
