The Calcutta branch of the w. G.
7. T., under the active leadership of
Mary E. Leslie, president, is doing
good work for the promotion of social
purity and the protection of young
girls. Among other things they are
laboring for the removal the disquali-

re-marriage of Hindoo widows who
may now live in open unchastity en-
joying their inherited possessions but
are at once deprived of their property
upon re-marriage.

speak. The resolution referred to by
so many of the papers did come
from the resolution committee with
very small majority vote, but was
tabled in the convention by a very
large majority. The resolutions were
printed on slips as they came from
the committee, not as they were
adopted by the convention. If the
papers could take time to read the
report of the convention, they would
stand corrected. AS member of
the resolution committee, |, with

Educational and General.
The Need of Educated Mothers.

There seems to be somewhat pre-
valent opinion that a college educa-
ton fits woman for almost any po-
sition she may wish to occupy, but
that of wife and mother. She may
with propriety be teacher, or per-
haps physician but if she use the
qualities that so we'll adapt her to be
the guardian of the minds and health
of the children Of others, in rearing
her own children, her education is
deemed as lost and worthless.
The same opinion also exists in re-
gard to girls who, although not col
lege-bred, have received the advan-
tages of a so-called liberal education.
Public opinion finds expression in
such phrases as "How much better
off is she than such-an- one who never
had any education?" "She'd better
have done something with her educa-
ton before she settled down."
The place above all others where
al educated woman is needed is the
home, of those in moderate circum-
stances, where the mother, with
little outside help, does her own work
and tends her own babies. The in
fuence of an educated Christian
woman in such home can hardly be
estimated. 1t may look to others as
il her time had been wasted and her
education were useless, but she her.
self feels the advantage. 1t is prob
able she did not have q special train
ing for her duties, but her habits of
study, her interest in the advance
ment of the race, and her desire to
do whatever she does in the best pos
sible way, lead her to select the best
methods of caring for her children.
We claim that a girl with a college
or liberal education does not have
special training for motherhood. Not
in the sense, Of course, that she has
experimental knowledge of baby
tending. That is the lot of compar-
atively few. Her course of study
has given, or should have given her
comprehensive knowledge of physiol-
ogy, including the development Of
the teeth, and what it teaches in re-
gard to food for different ages, a
practical knowledge of hygiene, in
Guiding food, bath, dress, ventilation,
exercise, and few general rules in
regard to care for the sick; knowl-
edge of chemistry of food; a knowl-
edge of psychology, giving her an in
terest in the development of the mind
and the formation of habits. An ad-
ditional knowledge of other 'isms"
and "ologies' is by no means to be
despised. Happy is the mother who
has the assurance within her that she
is capable of lead ng her sons and
daughters in their studies and occu-
pations until they reach manhood and
womanhood, and proud are the chill
dren of such a mother.
If, however, the mother instinct,
with good common sense, is lacking,
neither college education, nor lib
eral education, nor any amount of
special training can supply the def
cheney Educating or training is

qualities one already possesses, and

WASHINGTON, JULY 80, 1888.
THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM.

The testimony given on Saturday be-
fore the Congressional Investigating
Committee in New York by Mr.. Paul
ANolfr, the Washington correspondent
of the Stadts-ZeituRg, was Of interest and
importance as showing the existence of
organized societies in Bavaria and else
where that have made it n business to
assist discharged convicts in coming to
this country.
Evidently such q system as this, no
matter how limited its operations may
be, as compared with the grand total of
immigrants, cannot be tolerated No
legislation can be too severe to prevent
criminal shipments from Europe, and a
most rigorous surveillance should be
required of all parties for whom tickets
to the United States are purchased and
whose antecedents are uncertain.
Neither Germany nor any other for
eign country is unwilling to be relieved
of the pauper and vicious elements of
its population; but no European nation
can knowingly permit their expectation
to America without an outrageous viola
ton of international comfy. Hence, in
our efforts to check so great an evil we
have reason to expect the friendly aid
and countenance of all foreign powers;
but the work has mainly to be done by
our own Government and through i'm
migration laws, so comprehensive of
scope and rigorous in their provisions
as to afford of themselves an effective
remedy against the influx of paupers,
criminals and political conspirators.
Mr.. Wolff is of the opinion that it
would not be feasible to exclude any
particular nationality or to limit the
number, but he says "it would be pos
sible to limit the quality in some way,
and to do this intelligently it would be
necessary to start the sitting on the
other side." An excellent suggestion is
this.
Everybody allows the propriety and
necessity of imposing certain conditions
and qualifications upon foreigners de-
string naturalization and citizenship.
Mr.. Blair's bill on this point, intro
duced in the Senate the other day, or
some measure of similar character con-
Cerning eligibility to citizenship, appears
to meet the case much more efIicaciously
than existing law, which is admittedly
insufficient in many respects.
But if it is wise to take these stringent
precautions in the admission of aliens to
the full privileges Of citizenship, it will
certainly be equally wise to adopt fur
ther preliminary precautions by which
to inhibit the importation of aliens who
are known beforehand not to possess the
attributes of which good citizens are
made.
The sitting process, we are inclined to
think, furnishes solution of one of the
most difficult problems involved in the
immigration question, and the commit
Tee will doubtless take it under careful
consideration.

PRINCE WALDEMAR, the youngest son
