MARIE CORELLI AGAIN
"I admit that as women, we have long and old scores to settle with the men who have denied us any place in their counsels, and who elect of themselves to treat us merely as 'toys' and fools (writes Marie CoreHi in the Daily Chronicle). We shall have our revenge upon them ; but not now. Now is the time when we. have the chance to show our ability, our powers o£ organisation, our reasonableness, our courage, our industry and patience. Let us not fail! The curse of the Jew who wrote Genesis and swore to live—"T. will greatly multiply thy sorrow'' lias been upon woman ever since the days when courteous old Abraham yoked her with his cattle and drove her u-ith his sheep ; but there are evidences nowadays that the modern Abraham will not always triumph, even though every true son of Israel who attends religious service in his synagogue Btiifi says with Peeksniffian fervour— '.Blessed art thou, 0 Lord our God, King of the universe, who hast not made me 1 a woman!'
