Girls Versus Ladies'.

We are forced to confess an inability
to draw that proper distinction in wo-
men that shall suit the world, and show
the line OF demarcation between girls
and ladies. We presume it to be that
young woman who is obliged or who
chooses to work cannot be lady; there
fore, when we say, "The ladies, God
bless Them" we Of course do not mean
that portion Of creation who are suffi-
ciently vulgar to work. They are neces-
sarily shut out of Gods mercy and
mans sympathy.
We dislike very much to so fly in the
face Of NIL accepted creeds, but per
sonally not holding this opinion, we feel
in duty bound to express it. We think
a lady may be clad in calico, aye. and
cheaper; that she may rise at daylight,
and toll even in the inky, oily press.
rooms, even in the close unventilated
workshops, in dirty downtown streets,
and still be as pretty and proud, as
good and as virtuous, as though she
drew out the best years of husband,
brother. or fathers life in labor, to buy
the silk and jewels which she spends
liberal time in Haunting ON the streets.
Holding such nm opinion, we look with
deep and abiding interest upon such
portion Of our womanly population as
is found IN workshops. factories, and
laboratories of the great cities. We
watch them in their toll, and follow
them in Imagination to their homes.
What are their homes? Does this
question ever suggest itself to the en-
ployer, or does he imagine that his
duty is done when he pays them the
agreed-on pittance for the labor
rendered? Does the question ever
come home to the thousands who are
investing their money for a pass above.
by sending missions to Feeiee and
Central Africa?
How can we, claiming to be an en-
iightened and benevolent people, claim
ing TO treat women with more defer
ence than any other people upon the
face Of the earth, stand quiet and
stretch out no hand to soften the paths
OF this better portion of our population
Can we not do something to amelorate
the position of the working-girls?
Something to give them more ease and
exemption in their cmployments, and
more comfort in their homes? They
want nothing in charity; nothing to buy
tracts and provide places for prayer
meetings. They want solid, substantial
comforts; they want more hours for
play. They want the attention and
encouragement Of their employers, the
sympathies Of the weather. Of their sex.
rs certainly as they deserve the re-
spect of the whole. Failing all these,
they want Legislative action that shall
specially protect their labor, and by
this means add to the comfort of their
homes. What good man or woman will
it be who shall first step forward to do
some practical service for the female
working population Of our large cities,
the true ladies of our land p .Ameri-
can Cttlfirdtor.

The other day Michigan farmer drove

The Entertainment at tle Church.
The first anniversary of the
Laura Haygood YouEg Peoples
Missionary Society was held at
the NJ. E. Church last Friday
night. Quite large company as
sembled and all seemed deeply
interested. After the devotional
exercises, the minutes were read
by Miss Matte Bell, and inter-
esting reports were read by Misses
Alice Dozier, president, and Ola
Stevens, treasurer. The exercises
were varied and Spirited, consist
ing in recitations, dialogues,
an allegory and, IA pantomime
song. The children all did nice
ly, and several new names were
added to the number of members
of this worthy society. The young
ladies having the meeting in
charge, and the excellent choir,
presided over by Misses Claude
Farrar and Carrie Brown, assist
ed by Professor Ware, deserve
the thanks of the audience for an
evening Of refined and elevated
endowment.
