Drivaux dill not follow the tines of the present .movement, where- in women contend for equality with men, Iter idea wits that wotnen were capable of higher intellectual 'develop. merit than men from the Pact thatthey are made of finer texture. Iter plan WAS to -utilize the brute force of men by making it suhsorvlent to the Supe- rior intellectual faculties of,,'tvornen. • Mme. Drlyeux, who possessed an enormous fortune, purchased -an It/land hi the Meditet'rtanean Oak, upon which the proposed to carry out her idea, She bad no difficulty In founding her col- ony. Some of her colonists were of noble birth; others were commoners, but all were intellectual, She called for menvelilnleers wh-• _ ...v must ioln whir a fullunderstanding. that the Women were to do the thinking, the men to serve ns protectors, dime. Drlvaux's Idea iu separating ber colonists from the rest of the world Was that she might make an absolutely fresh start, untrammeled by existing institutions, laws, customs, Bat a per- fect rhalclne jiff '''' "- H _ - a. ,ue present In order o.' inaugurate a new future is very dif- ffeniY A weak spot In the founder's purpose was that among the hundred women she took with her there were y'' -op eneh 0f whom lyra loved' by a Mari'. These ,Men, llnwiiling 'to [tart: Witt) those they loved, enrolled them- selves nniong the masculine foiie who were to do the fighting and laborers, Thus at the Very outset did the canker- worm get into the roots of the tree that dime. Drivanx had planted with so much thought, trouble and expense. Mme: Drivnux had enlisted every OM colonist herself, takiug care that he was not opposed to her scheme or Unwilling to accept the direction of the women, looking to his muscles rather than his brain for his share of the work. But these three "misbegotten knaves," who had joined for•the pur- pose of getting possession of the wom- en they loved, deceived her by being the loudest in their • advocacy of her plan and their promises to he obedient and patient laborers and soldiers. Marriage was not ferbidden in till colony, but eVeryi wan who married was obliged to promise that he would obey ills wipe. Moreover, be was obliged to agree to be n hewer of wood and n drawer of water, looking to his wife for guidance like tin obedient hus- hand, Now, .the three marplots who had Joined the colony were much nut out at having to leave Paris for a consider- able onsiderable time in order to save for them- selves the women they loved. Even on the voyage they put their heads to- gether to devise a plan for being re- 1enefl on the colorists for the sacri- fice they were obliged to make. Nat- urally it was easy for them to get con- trol of the other men colonists, for the latter being content to let the women do their thinking were not disposed to think for themselves; consequently, associating with men who were dis- ,posed to lead them, they naturally fol- lowed. • Now, it so happened that 500n after the Colony was established a ship stop- ped at the island loaded with a fierce band of Arabs Prem the African coast, bent on pinuder. dime. Drlvaux called upon the men to attack the invaders and drive them away. Jules Champi- nols, one of the three men who had been plotting against the success of the colonial scheme, said: "We are ready to drive these men away, but we wouiti be pleased if you would give tis a plan of attack. It is our part to do the fighting, but your part to tell us how. Shall we take the offensive or act npon the dereusivo? Shall we use gens or shall we rely on 0nr bayonets?" Mme. Drivaux Looked scornfully on M.-Ctampinois, stamped her)foot and told him to drive the melds, away without asking any Further questions. Tito women who were about their chief were much frightened, "This colony is orgnnizecl," continued the men's spokesman, -"oar the plan that you women do the prinking and we wren l.11e.wofk and the fighting.

The first English bard to attain last- ing fame was Geoffrey Chaucer, who was born in London about 1840. "The father of English poetry" was the eon of a vintner named John Chau- cer and in• his youth served the king as a soldier and was taken prisoner by the French. The English king paid ;SO for his ransom, which was quite a high price for a poet. Chaucer's most celebrated work, "The Canterbury Tales," was written between 1878 and 1400. It consists of a series of tales supposed to have been told by a com- pany of pilgrims to the slake of St. Thomas a Becket at. Canterbury, and In its pages we get such pictures of Iiing lsh life and ways of thought as are found nowhere else. Brevity, Robert Louis Stevenson was a close tudent of style and has loft more than ono interesting discussion of the tech- ique of writing. In a letter to R. A. M, Stevenson, dated October, 1883, he says: "There is but one art—to omit] Oh, f I knew Low to omit I would ask no tber knowledge!
