with God as witness, the sacred VOWS that
made them one flesh "until death do them
part" suffers, it may be, less than the
faithless wife, alter all. And yet the code
of modern social morality is thus
to assess the punishment. One of the cry
ing evils of the day is a too great leniency
and latitude of coI< :. extended to the
man so long as he aG( Il rewdly on his own
personal account TIE rigid rule that re-

The marriage vow is the same to each in
spirit and in word, and each should be he'd
equally accountable for its transgression
We need a healthier public
opinion on this matter, one
that will hold in sudden check
the first insidious approach that the design
ing spider makes toward entrapping the fly
into his parlor with the honied way that
clouds the reason and clogs the conscience
We need a healthier public opinion that
will frown on and reprobate and not
smile at and tolerate the one
whose ambition is for conquest
over the ignorance or the innocence of some
giddy girl or weak woman. Let the lat

with which true mothers do their daughters
warn, a thing which even menials see with
Scorn," but let the man bear likewise
his full share of the opprobri-
um and the damnable disgrace. When
this can be had, we will hear less of domes-
tic infdelity, less of hearth-stone wretched-
ness, less of homicide with "a woman at
the bottom of it" fewer of ruined families
with blighted names whose own in
nocence is thus linked with ances-
trail crime, and whose peace is, through
no fault of theirs, disturbed by whispered
references. Let each mother, each true
woman, constitute herself committee OF
one to apply as far as practicable a social
rule like this, and the world will be happier
