But is there not, after all, a lot of common sense and bus shrewdness behind the law? Your Englishman is not { @ sentimental creature, but when it come: to hard, rock-ribbed common sense it is difficult to find his superfor.

Should women have money? They are good stewards to a certain degree. Bu! for their own sake, and for that of th¢ public whom they affect, we think th: auestion is one to be seriously asked.
