Woman MS a ReI-ormer.

She extirpatcs vice by supplanting it
with virtue. She uses tact, and has lit
tie laith in main strength and awkward
ness. She believes more i'll mustard
seed Of good influence than in n whole
battery of violence. She has tho power
OF patience and bidcs her time; is not
disheartened because the hour is not yet
come, but sees the promise afar of, and
reads the large hope of her heart into
all the future. Like Napoleon's Stub
born enemies, she never knows when
she is beaten. There is no evil which
she thinks must needs be, and she as
firmly believes that this world is re-
deelnable as that it has Redeemcr.
Perhaps the most notable feature OF
womnn's work as n rcformcr is her sys-
tclnatic method. This is what was least
expected. But it is hardly too much to
say that her great temperance move
ment is the best controlled and most
systematic effort Mt reform that the world
.-.s YET seen. The agencies which have
been organized, the forces which have
been laid between this movement and
u tho I'LL, q e. Legislation, the platform,
the press, inc teachers and textbooks
Of the public schools, the home md the
praying circle, tiiv@s
formative processes, the minute atten-
ton to "details and the comprehensive
plans. vile as the world, all show con-
summate gcneralship. And it. may also
be said that this and other reform
movements, and the great missionary
enterprises, are bringing into view
more notable class of women than has
ever before crowned the generations.
The masterly management, the elo'
1uence. earncstness, faith and power
which they have brought to their work,
mark row era in the history OF reform.
But history does sometimes repeat
itself. All. the circular tendency OF
this movement will be to come around
again .to the old pagan notion, that
womancan only realize her full power
by straining after the masculine type,
md putting on mans armor and using
mans weapons. But her influence and
success as q reformer depend rs much
upon her loyalty to her womanhood aa
upon free field of action. And ii she
continues both reformer and woman, tins
world will soon he u far better world
than it has ever yet been.-J. Il. AdamS,
