There iv;is a nev work r.Uo by Coleridge-Taylor, the composer of '.'Hiawatha," at the London Choral Society's concert recently. This : s "A Talo of Old Japan." which was <xtreinely well received. It is said he exhibits here much of the spoatauiety ,-md iremiino inspiration of "Hiawatha," and the new music is written of as heing "delkate and fragrant as tho cherry blossoms of the land which inspired the poem." Csnon Hensley Henson, in the j coarse of a recent sermon at St. Margaret's, Westminster, deprecated i foolish speculations as to the time, place, and maimer of Christ's second advent, and presumptuous prophecies i aa to the end of" the world. Tho j primitive ideas of the early Christians were excusable, but such tilings to-day were, as Dr. Jowefct said half a century ' ago, an irreverent intrusion. Canon Henson said he would not have referred to the matter did ho not knowthere were disturbing indications of a recrudescence of these barren and demoralising speculations which had eo strange a fascination for 'some religious people, and, what was most astonishin a, among a section of London society wliieh might be expected, from its education, to know bettor.

In the days Allien Mrs Pankhurst was a ffirl women were not nearly so "advanced" as 'hey are to-day. Young girls were exposed to take a more or less "back sear,." and it was an almost unheard of thing for a woman to play «. prominent part in poltics or public life. "When 1 was a girl," she said not long ago, "it vas thought correct for women to be anaemic, helpless, and useless but I jdont think that even then we were iQU'te so silly as it was thought ladvllike to be."
