by the. speaker of the althing, at the
ancient seat of laws. to discuss issues
of importance, Miss ()lafla was elected
to represent the Woman‘s Political so-
ciety, which was organized in 1394.
She mounted hei- sturdy pony and set
her face toward the old capital, 40 miles
distant, over a rough and trying road.
Though delegated by her society she
was not entitled to a seat, but the men
recognizer] that she had a constituency.
and she was made a voting member of
the convention. She is president of the
Iceland W. C.’ T. U., and carries on an
insurance business. It was in her “neat.

Ackcrman found her and learned of her
Work. In order to study the methods of
the schools in Denmark she journeyed
there and remained 15 months.
"Later I went to Norway, the land
of my ancestors," said Miss Johnsdot<
ter, “where I became anuainted with
a woman who was agent for a New
[York insurance company. She has made
a great success of the business there,
and l was asked to take the general
agency for Iceland, which I did. There

A Sea-mm: by Ella \Vheeler W'ilcox.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox says: “When wo-
man begins to talk of and illustrate her
independence of or superiority over man,
she is as pitiuble an object as the legless
man who endeavors to show you how
well he gets along without his natural
means of locomotion. .
“When a man tells you that woman is
of absolutely no account in the world,
he is simply the armless cripple who
strives to exhibit his agility with his
toes."
“If the‘old man’ had always done his
duty, the new woman would never have
been heard of. Heaven knows I loathe
her, with her bloomers and her aggress-
ive self assertion. and her thirst for
power,r'and her obliteration of senti-
ment. But she is the direct result of
selfishness and niggardliness in money
matters in the 'old mau' of the lust cen-
tury. I dare assert that the statistician
who would be willing to take the trou-
ble to look up the matter would find
that every new woman ‘of the day who
strides along the war-path ‘shbuting the
battlch of freedom’ is the daughter
or granddaughter (if not the wife) of
some petty tyrant of a man. When grand-
father, father and husband have been
liberal, reasonable and e! :vsistent, I do
not believe the woman‘s rights woman
ever appears."

As an indication of the recognition
which women are beginning to receive
in German speaking countries it may
be mentioned that in the discussion of
the bill for the admission of women to
universities a member of the Austrian
parliament said of Frau von Gizyckl,
whose husband was the well known
writer on ethics and professor at the
University of Berlin, referring to her,

would be an honor to any parliament

Women's Colleges.
Dean Smith of Barnard makes a
strong point in behalf of such women's
colleges as are connected with men's
colleges, where, she says in her recent
annual report of the institution over
which she presides, “constant compari-
son of progress at Barnard with progress
at Columbia sets a pace by no means so
likely to kill as that of the isolated col-
lege for women. Girls. being as yet
nouveaux riches in learning, are ex-
travagant in it, and I count it one of
the great advantages of connection with
a college for men that it establishes a
more reasonable ideal of attainment
than girls by themselves are willing to
put up with. ”

Miss Jennie Young of Scotland has
been in Mexico for some time arranging
for the purchase of land for a large
Scotch colony which she intends to bring
over soon. She is greatly impressed with
Mexico and believes that immigrants
from Europe will soon flock to it. “For
many years," she says, “it has been my
desire to find a suitable country which
would be a safe and successful one for
colonization. I have traveled a great
deal, and I have visited many parts of
the world, yet have never found so fruit-
ful a country or so exquisite a climate
as I find here in the republic."—City of

a half length of 2 inch soft satin ribbon

in easy folds, and passed again around
the throat to tie in abig flaring bow
with short ends at the back. A jeweled
