Charity Is the reconciliation after the con-
test. And while I wish woman to WELD
the weapon of discernment and disorimina-
ton, I pray also that the great bond of
charity may SO unite and hold them that
they shall show a solid front against the
moral evils which desolate the world.
desire that woman should feel more
than they do their vested right in society.
The experience of motherhood shows this
to us. When our children become mem
bers of society they inherit whatever good
or evil service we have rendered to it, just
as we have inherited the same from our
own ancestors.
When years ago, 7 had so enthusiastic
vision of what women could do to promote
peace, | knew very we'll how much they
can do to disturb it.
The domain of selfish personal passion is
one in which women are sometimes as
deadly and explosive as dynamite. They
are intense in their feelings and desires,
and are usually more hemmed in by cir
cumstances than men are. Dynamite, you
know, flames harmlessly if it is simply
kindled in open air. Confined within
strong narrow bounds it can deal wide
spread death and destruction. Women are
apt to begin life with an intensified feeling
of self, which relates every surrounding
circumstance to central, dominant passion.
This may be romance, ambition or covet-
BUSINESS They are then hedged about,
bounded and limited by this overweening
selfhood. This is the scorpion girt with
fire. Rather may we call it the germ i'm
prisoned in the strong work. Not until
that work gives away can womanhood
widen out to its true perfection and glory.
| know this narrow and unhappy aspect
of womanhood, but l know its opposite
also. The woman who dwells in my
thoughts is not of this kind. God has
given her the victory over the demonic
forces of nature. So she sits enthroned in
serene peace, breathing reconciliation, and
helping to lift the world around her to her
own high level.
What shall we do when the poorer sort of
womanhood gets forward, and aims at Civ
ing its tone to society? How shall we deal
with the envy and malignity, the wicked
and injurious calumny to whom such a
state of things will be likely to give rise ?
To overcome these evils we must bring
forward the heroic ideal side of woman
hood, which we shall find everywhere pre-
sent in the world, if we only believe in it

all in few hours is transformed from an
inhospitable, forbidding edifee into an
inviting, CHEEKY summer home. Windows
to house are as eyes to the face, and when
the first is blinded with board shutters, it
is as unattractive as the face that wears
green goggles. A hundred houses SO
blinded give certain portion of Newport
very dismal appearance for six months in
the year, and there is something especially
pleasant in the disclosure of prettily-cur-
tanned panes The gardeners are putting
touches of color here and there on every
lawn, the village carts begin to fly about,
the summer shops are opening their doors
the season has begun. To be sure, the
Ocean House looks as if it had not been
open for a century and was not likely to be
open for another, for it has still month
yet, and not shutter has been flung open
so far; but the little Aquidneck is all alive
again and has many guests, most of them
in search Of cottages, or remaining there
while their houses are put in readiness.
The Cliff cottages are open again, under
the good management of Mr.. Westcott, and
Mr.. Livingstone's family have arrived at
the Livingstone colony, and the Pinard
group has been ready for occupancy for
week. The Casino, too, is open to the
public, but there is no music yet. Every
one will regret that Lrnder's orchestra,
which has added so much to the attractive
ness of Newport, has not been reengaged
at the Casino. A local orchestra, that has
painfully bruised our ears at the opera
house in the winter, has been substituted

derstand that Lander will bring his

Newport Ca8iLo, intellectually, is great
success; but something seems to stand in
its way Of being what the casino, or kur-
saal, of European wateaing-places is, and
financially it has Jared badly. A prettier
place there is not in America. There are
to be hops twice week as usual, but with
out Lander these, too, will lose much of
