Now, I see where Australia and New Zealand have passed statutes permitting their women to retain |their British nationality after |marrying a foreigner, providing they state a desire to do so, and remain in Australia or New Zea- land, as the case may be. In the mother country of Great Britain, however, married women retain their British nationality only if they do not automatically acquire the nationality of the foreigner they marry. Naturally, Australia and New | Zealand are unable to grant any | further privileges to their female citizens, because the British Gov- | ernment is not prepared to do so. | Whatever you may think of | foreign marriages, or the wisdom and advisability of contracting | them, it is a great consolation to | } | | nic spot.” Refreshed by ‘4 the ice cold water, her hair broug! it to a semblance of ler by a wet comb; her lips fresh- rubied and a powder puff Tubbed across a nose fast freckling without Toinette's care.
