One un- sired student .of womankind, 'dnd an editur at that, refers to woman as "the begetter," which is certainly a new thought in physiology, and some- thing which has not before been claim- ed for the sex by its most ardent per tisians, Another editor draws a fanciful pic- ture of a modern clubwoman tearing the stronger sex with tooth and nail, stinging with = snakelike ferocity and emulating the squaws of the Iroquis in practicing cruelty, and this he sol- emnly avers is what Mr. Kipling teaches in his much talked of verses. It seems pitiful when a man of Kip- ling's genius produces "a work which evidently reflects his real convictions, that,.it cannot be discussed in more reasonable - fashion. Assuming that Mr. Kipling's deductions are not jus- tified-~they can bettar be disproved by calm argument than by. adjectives and epithets. But this form of attack is mot without its benefits.

Again. Mr. Kipling tells us that the cobra di capella will wriggle awav at the approach of man--if a2 male cobra, but the female cobra will stay and ging the intrutler to deat ™ Hence Mr. Kip- ling argues that the female of that sve- cies is more deadly than the male, Ob- serve, however, that he is speaking about female cobras, and not of Amer: ican women, as the able editors are tell- ing us + So far we do not blame the bear, or the cobra very much, We admire the bear, and excusé the snake, and we do not chide the poet for telling us of their qualities. But now we come to the Huron and Choctaw squaws. Mr, Kipling would have been more correct had he used the squaws of the 'Iroquois as examples, and considering that "Iroquois" rhymes with squaws quite as well as "Choctaw." it is surprising that he didn't. He tells us that the Jesuit missionaries did not greatly fear the warriors of these tribes, but that they dreaded the vengeance and cruelty of the women. Hence he argues that the female Indian was more deadly than the male. But, observe, he speaks of the Indian women of two centuries ago and not of the white wo- men of to-day. For his eriticism of the squaws we do not blame Mr Kip- ling. 'In fact he might have gone fur- ther and adduced the cruelty of the Parisian menads during the French rev- : olution as further proof of his conten tions. The most violent critics of Mr. Kip- ling will hesitate to deny the truth of these premises, namely, that she-bears, she-snakes and she-savages are more deadly than the males of their kind. That must be acknowledged. But Mr. Kipling, goes- deeper. wishes to know what great natural law affects bears, shakes and savage wo- men, and which will cause them t) act alike under certain like circumstances.

London Times. | The decision of the Cheshire educa- {tion committee to ask the authorities of the McGill University, Montreal, if they would accept Cheshire engineer ing scholarship holders in the conelud- ling stages of their studies as trans {fers from the Manchester or Liverpool Universities indicates that engineering students' in this country have to look beyond the borders of their own uni versities for a more promisin, field of activity.

The explanation is that a great many firms, only remotely as sociated with engineering work, can find employment for youths who have been trained in accurate thinking and coneise methods of investigation. The lesson to be derived from the action the Cheshite education committee, however, is that for students who are qualified to enter upon professional ing work the case is entirely ise.
