"Anyone who observes English so- 'ciety and sees sweet, dainty women in gorgéous frocks, and then notices bow chivalrously and with what rey- erence men treat them, may easily come to the erroneous conclusion that this display is all genuine. But this outward chivalry is nothing but a sham. The Englishman refuses, on principle, to take women seriously. Woman is, for the Englishman, no thing more than a beautiful doll, use- ful to amuse the male portion of hu- manity during those hours of unoc- cupied business. English women thus become beautiful, but brainless, dolls, an object of sport, and nothing more. "There is no real community of interests between English husbands snd wives. The English wife is fre- quently ignorant what profession her husband pursues, and the English woman has become in character just what Burne-Jones represents her as being in his pictares--'lifeless, soul- less, brainless." "The Englishman is to blame for this. He 'has made the English woman what she is. English women are not treated as human beings, but as articles in man's possession. Wom- an is an cbject of sale. "I have before me a long document, in which a woman whose hand has been sought in marriage states her conditions, naming how much pocket money she desires, what allowance for clothes, and how many horses, earriages, servants, &c., she requires to be placed at her disposal after marriage. "It is sad, but truth compels me to record the fact that woman occupies a degraded position in England." Tallest Woman In Europe. The tallest woman in Europe is to be found at the Hippodrome, London. Mariedl, as she is called, was born in the Tyrol twenty-eight years ago, weighs 365 1bs., and is 8 feet high. Her agent announced that she is the daughter of peasants, and one of sev- en children, all height, save herself. There are rec- ords of women measurin ches having exhibited themselves at the country fairs in England in thé last two centuries, and there was a Somersetshire lass, Rose Ford, who created a sensation some thirty years ago, for she was 7 feet 7 inches in height. 80 Marjedl at present holds the record, and she will con: mtly attract the curious to the ippo- drome. Charles Stéwart Parnell. Many people believe that Ireland's "ancrownied king" did more for the food and prosperity of the Emerald sle than 'any other politician and re- former of the nineteenth century. His tuethods and those of his supporters may not have been agreeable to thou- sands of Englishmen, but no one can deny that the reforms he carried through improved the lot of Irishmen «generally; and above all they had the ultimate effect of lessening, to a very large extent, the hostile feeling felt the peasants against , and rulers.
