IN BRITISH HOUSE Seek Bill Allowing Women to Retain Nationality When Marrying Aliens (By Thos. T. Champion, Canadian Press Staff Correspondent) London, Feb, 26~--Members Parliament cheered last night while a bill, backed by 52 women's socie- tics of Great Britain and by 70 so- cieties in the Dominions and Colon- ies, was given first reading. It will allow any British woman marrying a foreigner, to retain her own national ity if she so desires. The supporters of the bill believe that if the British parliament gives the lead, the matter can be favorably discussed at the Imperial conference next autumn. And all parties in par- liament are in favor of the bill. Simi- lar bills have been introduced before, but have never passed further than second reading. Similarly, the bill makes provisions for the foreign woman marrying an Englishman, in the opposite manner ~--to ensure that she shall not auto- matically acquire English citizenship. She will have to fulfill the same ci- tizenship requirements as apply to alien men, The bill further provides that - a woman who has already lost her Bri- tish nationality by marriage with an alien shall not regain it unless she makes declaration of alienage, The position of thé alien woman who is ject by virtue of marriage will not be jeopardized by the bill, AFGHAN TRIBES DISCONTENTED (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) London, Feb, 24--A despatch to the Daily Mail from Rawalpindi, India, this morning raid that there was great discontent and unrest among the tribes in Afghanistan, and, that though the country was quiet at present, a revolt was fear- ed. Nadir Khan, who seized the throne from the usurper, Sacha Sakao, several months ago, is re- ported to be seriously ill, The Daily Mail's despatch adds that ex-King Amanullah, exiled with Queen Sourlya and his court in Italy, would be welcomed back by many tribes, but that the entire population is united in opposing the return of the queen. The Afghans, it is sald, regard her as being responsible for the recent civil wars because of her ebandonment of the custom of wearing veils, her introduction of European dress for women and WOMEN GHEERED of already recognized as a British sub- | REVOLT FEARED WOMEN'S CORNER WOMEN ARE CHARMING AFTER FORTY In the uneven contest between youth and maturity, the weight of opinion has been so prejudiced in favor of the charm of the twen- ties that it has, if anything, over- played the bleakhess of the for- ties. And many an intelligent wo- man has said: "After all, nothing really counts but youth--there's nothing ahead for you, once you have sprouted a wrinkle." Therefore, it is a pleasure to in- troduce two witnesses whose words and opinions carry weight, and let them testify in favor of the For- ties, writes a Cleveland columnist. The first is Naomi Royde-Smith, the British novelist and literary editor. Says she: *'The best years of a woman's life come after she is 20 and she really doesn't begin to live until then. She does not come into complete possession 'of cither her mind or her body until she Is at least thirty. T am convinceq that the happiest time is in the years between thirty-five and fifty, and that often the pericd of greatest achievement and satisfaction can be found in the decade after fifty." The second witness is a man---- an artist, and a very good one, Abel C. Warshawsky,- formerly from Cleveland, Ohio, who has spent a large portion of the last d4cade painting in France. He re- gards women pictorially as well as intellectually, and here is what he has to say: "The real height of feminine beauty comes only with maturity. A beautiful woman is never more lovely than when she reaches thirty-five or forty. Sometimes the full glamor of her charms comes even later. They have the poise to set off their native loveliness, They are sure of themselves so they can regard life and the changing world with serenity." One thing is certain: a woman is much moré responsible to her- sc"f for what she Is at forty than she is at twenty. ! At twenty, a girl is pretty much a product of her environment. If she has been intelligently rearei, wisely taught, has learned easy manners from good social advant- ages, and been taught how to dress and to make the most of her looks, she is bound to be attractive. But at twenty, many girls have been badly brought up, badly spoiled, under cducated and not polished, and are as a result quite ill adapted to life. The next ten or twenty years, in which they de- volop according to their own in- telligence and their « wn standards, may change them completely. Some will be women of charm at forty because they will have learn- ed from their triugphs and their defeats, tested their capabilities, and will really be themselves, Since maturity and age are in evitable, and all the skill and science of the ages cannot stay the calendar, there is no particular use in struggling so violently against the years, In these days, there is no reason why anyone should be out of 'the running so long as she keeps her human sympathies and mental alertness, and takes reasonable care of her appearance. The woman who doesn't .get the most of her for- ties and fifties and sixties, even has only herself to blame, other efforts to convert the coun- try to "western heathenism." Nadir Khan, the present ruler, is the uncle of Amanullah, but has not encouraged him to return to Afghanistan, Senator D «Charlottetown, P.E.L | Hon. Benjamin | { home here Saturday afternoon.

He was very hungry. It seemed to him that he could eat almost anything. So perhaps you can guess how he felt as he lay hidden under a hemlock tree and knew that only a little way from him, under another little hem- lock tree, was a young Owl. "An old Owl might be tough" thought Reddy, "I guess it would be tough. . But a young Owl like that one there couldn't possibly be tough. I have never eaten Owl, but I am quite willing to try it. I guess I had better not make the attempt, how- ever, while Hooty is around. Per- haps if I am a little patient Hooty will fly away and I can grab that little Ow] and get away before Mrs, Hooty returns." So Reddy lay right where he was and his mouth watered. It was all he could do to keep from springing to his feet and seizing that little Ow]. He knew if he did it, however, that he would suffer for it. He had a great deal of respect for the great curved claws and the stout hooked bill of Hooty the Owl. By and by Hgoty spread his great wings and sailed a vay. Reddy waited Then he began to get to his feet. A moment later he settled back, however. You see, Mrs. Hooty had arrived. She had brought an- other mouse for that baby under the little hemlock tree. - For a moment she stood there on the ground very straight and turned her head first one way, then the other, so rapidly that Reddy couldn't get away from the feeling that if she didn't stop she would twist Wer head off. Her great Reddy Fox "Around eyes stared with a fierceness that made Reddy feel uncomfortable, He began to wonder if she suspected that he was hiding there. It made him uneasy. He began to wish that he was somewhere else. In a moment Mrs. Hooty stopped looking about so suspiciously, The young Ow) stretched his neck up and began to tease the mouse she: had Just doecisght. Mrs. Hooty fed the yBungster. It seemed strange that so fierce a bird could show affection, Yet had you been there you would have seen at once that Mrs. Hooty loved this baby of hers and was very, very proud of it. Even Reddy rea- lized this. Right close by was a low shrub. Mrs, Hooty perched on this, Then Reddy Fox Proves H's Wisdom By Thornton W. Burgess SY | yy! | . The temptation was very, very great she flew up for a look at the baby up in the nest in the tree, Satisfied that this one was all right, she returned to the stump and there she mounted guard until Hooty returned. She waited while he fed the baby in the nest and then she in her turn went off hunting. Meanwhile Hooty re- mained on watch in a tree close by the nest. This sort of Sing happened sev- eral times. Reddy Fox began to feel as if he were a prisoner, It wasn't going to be easy to get away with- out being seen by either Hooty or Mrs. Hooty. Somehow he didn't want to be seen. He had a feeling that if either one of those big birds should sée him, lie would be lucky in- deed to get away with a whole skin. However, at last he Had an oppor- tunity, Hooty left before Mrs. Hooty returned. The way was clear. Reddy took a good long look at the place where that little Owl was hiding. The temptation was very, very great, It would take but a moment to dart over there, seize that young Owl and race away with it. As I said before, Reddy was very hungry. He was al- most on the 'point of darting after that Owl when he decided instead that he would take this chance to get away. It was a wise decision. It shows the wisdom that Reddy has in that shrewd head of his. more than out of sight when Mrs, Hooty arrived and she certainly would have caught him had he tried to get that baby.

CUTS OF BEEF A less tender cut of beef may, with skilful cooking, be made al- most as delicious as a choicer ploce. There are times, however, when one wishes a special treat of a tender piece of meat. In general, the tender cuts for steak are: sirloin, porterhouse, ten- derloin, and short cut rib, Tender cuts for roast are rib and loin. The less tender, and therefore the less expensive cuts are chuck, shoulder, flank, round, rump, neck, plate, brisket and shank. The best method of cooking tender cuts is to Sear the meat at a high temperature until a brown coating is formed, which will shut in the juices. Then reduce the heat and finish cooking. Do not cover the meat, nor add water. Turn the meat to insure even cooking. Pour off accumulated fai to prevent frying. ° For less tender meats, heat, Yelrers.
