Our neighbor continent to the south has long been busy extend ing the glad hand to the commercial nations of this hemisphere. We gather from an article in a recent issue of the Yokohama Evening Herald that South America has not forgotten to be nice to her humbler callers from the Eas! According to the Japanese newspaper Brazil is developing a rare and wonderful species of landlord whose peculiar nature it is to he kind and helpful to his tenants. A year or two ago one of these landlords leased to two Japanese immigrants come five equare milos of land with tho understanding that they would be liable for no taxes and need give him as rent only a reasonable percentage of their rico file native employees on condition that the wages of the Intter be paid after the crops were in.

ADLER. R. FELIX ADJ.ER, with cautious and well-meant remarks about “The Independence of the Modern Woman,” tries to keep step a little way with the emancipation procession. “In certain respecte,” says Dr. adler, “women have been subject, and {in these respects they wish to shake off the authority of man, and they are right in eo doing. Women were formerly supposed to take their opinions from man fn regard to those questions which required sustained intellectual thinking, in questions of politics, in religious and social questions. The first great claim and triumph for women lax been the getting for themselves equal educational opportunities with men.” It won’t do, Dr. Adler. You can congratulate them about their “triumphs” and their “big ideas”; you can call motherhood a “voca- tion” and a “science” until you are black in face. Did you or did you not say that women were “scatter-brained” and that they are “imitating the men”? You're not even a half-way “hiker,” Doctor, The pilgrims are not going your way, and anyhow you couldn't keep up. * ———_—_<+. Nw.
