"* said Miss She-he, ‘* that the “*Please do not resurrect that sub- ject,"’ returned Mr. He-she. “You know, I am radically against sonneay Women voting, and we will do nothing but argue “But why are you against it?’’ was the sharp question from the pretty suffragette. ‘* You surely have not studied the question, I tell you "’—emphatically—‘‘ women will be in power in a few years.”” “Power nothing!"? snapped Mr. He-she. ‘* A woman's place is in the home—a mother and housewife—which is an ideal and natural life for her to lead. “*So!"’ ejaculated Miss She-he. Yes, sir. Why, everything from the beginning of his- tory points out that man should rule. Take history—what is history? History includes everything that has ever occurred in the whole world.
