It is very hard to touch the heart of a woman who is down, though they
are intensely sympathetic amongst themselves. It is nearly as hard as
it is to combat the pride of a hard-working woman in poverty. It was
such women as Mrs Johnson, One-Eyed Kate, and their sisters who led
Paris to Versailles; and a King and a Queen died for it. It is such
women as Mrs Johnson and One-Eyed Kate and their sisters who will lead
a greater Paris to a greater Versailles some day, and many "Trust"
kings and queens, and their princes and princesses shall die for it.
And that reminds me of two reports in a recent great daily:

Miss Angelina De Tapps, the youngest daughter of the well-known
great family of brewers, was united in the holy bonds of matrimony

society wedding). The happy pair leave en route for Europe per the
--- next Friday.

Jane Johnson, an old offender, again faced the music before Mr
Isaacs, S.M., at the Central yesterday morning--(here follows a
"humorous" report of the case).

Next time poor Mrs Johnson will leave _en route_ for "Th'

The sisters join Mrs Johnson, who has some money and takes them to a
favourite haunt and shouts for them--as she does for the boys
