Man—the Serpent.
"I have never come across a maß anywhere in whom th<» trail of the serpent was not visible—that is to pay, _ have never met a man who did not consider in his innermost mind that ho was the hub of the universe." said Mrs Flora Annie Steel at a mooting of the Conservative and I'pion-.st Women's Franchise Association. Describing the ixisition o: enfranchised man compared with that of unfranchised women, she said: — "Man is on a pedestal at present, exposed to ait the lvir.d; of heaven, and his feet, poor de;ir. got cold because they aro made or clay. He would be much more comfortable if he were sheltering them amonp the petticoatside by tide with women, working foi the same goal."
