her-to be the helpmate of man,
minister to his comfort and bear his
children.
"But woman of today is selfish; she
is restless. She lives in this materi-
alistic age-alsO prosperous and
wealthy age-because the public
school system has taught it's children
how to prosper and make money to
spend for Injuries and creature COM
forts, and woman is tainted with the
spirit of the times.
'The home is being broken up and
among the worldly the Christian wo-
man of former days is hardly to be
found, but we still have such women
in the Catholic church, because the
Catholic church has retained it's old
principles. It's teachings regarding
the essential duties of woman are
always the same The Catholic wo-
1900 years ago."
The American public schools have
nothing to fear when they are con.
trasted with the parochial schools. A
tree, as the Bible says, is known by
it's fruits. A census of penal and refor-
matOry institutions, or Of brothels,
will show that there is no peculiar
virtue in parochial education that is
not found in the public schools
There is nothing so sanctifted in the
parochial schools that their gradu-
ates can be distinguished from other
citizens or separated because of their
superior character, their transcend
ent merits or their sublime virtues.
In the very same issue of the
newspaper in which the reverend
slanderer of non-Catholie woman
hood asserted that the Catholic
church alone has preserved. the fami-
ly and morals and the purity of wo-
manhood, there appears the follow
ing statement from Mrs. John Lind:

divided up among 120 peasants, each re-
ceiving 5 feddans as his share.
The distribution of these tenancies was
made on November 5. in the presence of
Lord Kitchener, the staff at the British
Agency, the Governor of the province, and
a large number of pashas, beys, and
notables. The land was divided up into
120 lots, the numbers being written on bits
of paper and thrown into a basket. In an
other basket were the names of the new
tenants. Two children were made to draw
simultaneously out of these two baskets;
and thus each peasant knew his portion of
the land.
The rejoicing Of the natives is unbound
ed, and their praise Of Lord Kitchener, the
originator and executor Of the scheme, is
beyond words. He is termed "the father
of the fellah," " the greatest benefactor Of
Egypt" and the greatest ruler of the
Nile Valley."-Dai1y Na1, Dec. 18TH.

land is still under cultivation, and all taxes
aud rents have been paid, the lease is again
renewed for life at the nominal rent of five
piastres and the tax. The ten,nt before
his death has the right to nominate one of
his sons as his successor.
The Government reserves to itself the
right to withdraw the tenancy in cases
where the cultivation of the land is neg
lected or where the lessee fails to pay the
rent.
DRAWING For Lors.
Lord Kitchener has already carried out
the scheme with a marvellous promptitude
and efficiency. The poasantry Of the Char
biah Province have been the first to enjoy
these land benefits. For some time past The
Government has been r%edeeming marshy
and waste lands i'll Bilah, in the vicinity of
Tantah, and $50 feddans were thus got
ready for cultivation. OF these 40 were set
apart for a new agricultural school for the
province, While the rest-61O feddans-were

promises to exceed all previous efforts to
increase the prosperity of the country and
to put the Egyptian fellah (peasant) out Of
the reach of proverty and want.
The scheme consists in dividing up GER
tian Government lands into small fivefeddan
tenancies. A feddan is slightly over an acre.
The tenancies are given over to the fella-
hin for cultivation on very easy conditions.
The document is drawn up in the form of
a lease for three years, beginning on the first
of the month, between the Government and
the tenant.
A nominal fee of one piastre (24) each year
is paid as rent, on condition that the land
be under cultivation before the end of the
period above mentioned. The lease, all
conditions being complied with, is then re-
newed for ten years at a rental of 1O5 pias-
tres els. 10d.) per aunum, and an addition
al tax equal to the Government tax on all
similar lands at the time.
