According 10 a newspaper dispatch.
the men In England are beginning TO
revolt against the modern woman and
are demanding that women return TO
the dress, the manners, the ideals, and
the niche in life that they occupied
In the early days OF their late dear
queen.

his mother ever used, and that his

down out Of her own tree, and go CAB
blng about the forest.
Goodness only knows where they got
1t, but IL Is a fact that men are OBJ
sessed by the idea that the women OF
the past were vastly superior to the
women OF the present. Every bachelor
feels that II he could only meet a

THE SANDMAN STORY

By Abby Phillips Walker

Grandmother was 80 modest. She
wore skirts that swept the earth and
let show barely the tips OF her toes,
and ahe spoke OF the limbs Of table,
and blushed II any portion of the hui
man anatomy was alluded TO.
There were only few books pure
enough for her to read. and she would

The modern man would md grand

he would be apt to think her evil

Grandmama was 10 delicate. She
swooned at every opportunity. She
had mysteries when she saw n mouse.
| She couldn't walk mile without
| leaning upon some mans arm. In
valdism was n cult with her. and
II was esteemed an elegant, ladylike
thing to do, for woman TO spend
her life lying on couch.
