We have seen how the women of the Consumers' League taught the United States Supreme Court something about working women; showed them a few of the calamities resulting from the unrestricted labor of women and immature girls.

The style, where style is attempted, shows, as the reader will perceive, a taste yet immature and unchastened: "Scene draws, and discovers REGINILLA asleep in the cave. "Enter PEVIDOR and other Devils, with the HUNTSMAN unbind him, and exeunt. "Hunts. Ha! Where am I now? I'll not wake her, lest, if it be a phantom, it should vanish.
