THE PRESIDENTS SISTER.
MISS Cleveland on the Rostrum-
Some Thoughts Suggested
by Eer Lecture.

In June, 1889, Miss Elnabeth Cleve-
land, present mistress of the White
House, delivered an address before the
klmira, n. Y, Female College, which
the Presby teriaE Evangelist pronounced
great, "a deserved compliment to an
excellent woman 1t was entitled CAL
tTuistlc Faith" and for her illustration
she took Chedidia. first wife of Moham-
med, who was rGch, and Ruch older
than he was when she married him.
When asked in later years why he did
net put her away and take a younger
wife, he replied that he loved her best
because she believed in him when all
men despised him. ChedIdia's faith
made Mohammed.
There is faith in God, faith in self,
and i'll humanity. The first produces
the others. Faith in humanity be-

worth saving You will have much
hunger and thirst, will crave affection
when the bloom of youth is supplanted
by the ashen hue of age; will cry aloud
for help in infrmities, must needs come,
because those on whom women rely,
though themselves pOwerless to relieve
them of their intolerable aches, pains,
prostrationS. sleepless nights OF agony
and days OF distress,-because eof the
narrowDess of their code and the self
ishness of their purpose, -restrain
them from resorting to those agencies
which may lift woman to plane OF
greater usefulness, and to a nobler life.
Many a woman lacks the faith of Che
didja. If they had faith in their own
reserve of physical power, confidence
in the personal experience of others
would follow; and instead of race of
suffering mOrtais,-slaves TO the Ureju-
dices of those whose only interest in
them is bounded by their profes
sIonal fees,-we should see nobility
of station reinforced by nobility
of mind and robustness of life.
The power to rid themselves of the
aches, pains and desperate despair
which affiict them, lis in women, and
ought to come out You all have a
countless amount of testimony Some
one will say TO you, go on, and you
will conquer"
"How?" Do as your sisters have
done? Have faith in their indisputable
experiences. We want more life and
fuller and need all the help we can get.

These unprejudiced thousands have
blessed the world because they have
become Chedidjas. who have felt it their
duty to declare their own faith and to
inspire their sisters with confidence in
the extraordinary up-building energy of
this wonderful discovery.
Miss Cleveland has evidently an origi
nal and fertile mind, and we are in
debted to her interesting lecture, ? few
thoughts from which we have copied
for text out of which the above sug-
gestions have grown.
