Kept Out Of Politics.

lp Austria women are forbidden by
law to take an active part in politics
or to join any political association.
Last spring the chamber OF deputies
decided to cancel the prohibiting
clause. and the political committee of
the upper house has now indorsed this
vote of the deputies, with the explana-
ton that "the part taken by women
in associations with political ten
denotes is well known. and, under the
circumstances, can scarcely be pre-
vented" This bill has been sent back
to the deputies for further considera-
ton. The women OF Austria have been
leading an agitation against the rise
of prices which they. as housekeepers.
feel most acutely. They have been
successful in cheapening coal in Vienna
and milk in Brunn. The leaders of the
movement have been elected to mu-
nicipal committees, and for the first
time a woman has been put on a com
mittee of town council. viz. that Of
Housing.

drifting sounds that caught at him

whirring note of frogs, the impatient

bars-and his nostrils widened to the
wild braided fragrance of the fields
over which the mist was spinning its
fairy carded WOOL

been quickly made. He was leaving
behind him all but a single portman-

But her mothers fainting at the sight

displayed in Shirley's accounts of him,
