THE SUFFRAGETTES.
Mary Dann apologises to Rudvard Kipling, and sums up the suffragettes as follows in a recent issue of Judge: When the last plate glass lias boen broken, and the last loose stone lias been shied, And our staunchest antagonist vanquished, and all votes to an apron string tied, We shall rest, and, faith, we shall >1 need it—sit down for a minute or two Until we can gather our senses, and find something startling to do. And those who wetre clubbed shall l>e \ .happy; they shall sit in a golden chair j And tell.to their less favoured sisters how they fought the policemen for fair, They shall talk of their deeds of vrnour. a.nd record them in history's book, While the dethroned lords of creation are trying to learn how to cook.
