LADY ASTOR'S ILL-TEMPER.
ON THE EDGE OF A TANTRUM. Lady Astor'u pronouncement on tho question of women policemen is characteristic of tho tone of unbalanced ill-temper which seems to afflict her whenever the question of the equality of the sexes is raised, wo aro told by a Londoner, who prooceeds : " She lives apparently in an imaginary world of her own, in which men ' instinctively band together to resist tho most modest pretensions of women. It really is not so. For a generation or more men have so liberally given women all they have asked for that now tho boot is on the other leg. " I do wish she would get out of this frame of mind, even if it were only for her own sake. It cannot be pleasant to live so perpetually on tho edge ot a tantrum about nothing."
