THE SUPREMACY OF MAN. '[CONTRIAUTED.]
Woman......a dangerous subject, but one t for silita pitfalla, its snares, and i illusions, has a considerable fascination fimple man. We will be frank, and onfess at the beginning that we do not profess to understand women, and we would net do so if we could, for the less we under stand of them the mors we admire them and the more they entertain us.

As a result of the war the market value of Man has appreciated to a considerable extent Nearly a million men and these the flower of our sex-sleep upon the battle. fields, and the rormal excess of women is increased by this number. The desire for children, the love of a home and a man- whom she can support in time of sorrow and rejoice with in time of triumph, are longings far too deep-seated in the nature of the average woman to be affected by the superficial changes of the last two decades. These are sentimenti that a century of time will not efface, and, whilst they endore, Man holds the key to the door of social life.
