Their doors, although open, to Tom, Dick and Harry, wero, however, care- fully closed against ladies. It would per haps be as injustice to the ladies to say that their exclusion caused them much anoyance. Had clube been open to them from the first, the privilege thereby accorded to them-if it could be called a privilege-would probably

Woman does not now concern herself with privileges'; she has discovered that she has Rights, one of which is the Right of establishing a slub for herself. Her Rights enable her to appear on an equal footing with male persons at the Bar, in the dissecting room and in many other places where men used to have it all their own way. In fact, the Wo- man of the West has arisen in her might and declared to the world that there is nothing that men de but she may do also, if she chooses. To this we heart- ly say men. There are, however, wa regret to say, certain things which do not seem always quite in her line. One of these is running a club. Of course men's clubs in these days are not places in which one expects to meet Shakesperes und Jonsons, and the

Formuld' or the 'Devil' crowd would find themselves not at all at home. Still, they are useful to men. But we havo some difficulty in conceiving the usos to which a club can be put by ladies. They might use it simply as a restaurant, but then a restaurant is not n club. We should be surprised if they wanted to have a billiard-room or a bowling alley, although we should find it extremely dificult to formulate any reasonable objection to their iH-
