a Standardization on
the Uses the Member
is Occasionally
Put to.
The human arm Is flesh and blood and
carriages and nerves, and the blood
flowing into 1t from the heart fountain,
permeates its entirety with a hundred
qualifications, making 1t sensitive to
human pain, and physically capable Of
performing its natural functions, as d.
rected by that great guide-Braln.
The Brain, while 1t is supposed to be
the chief motor of the human body, is
nevertheless subject to the different
physical emotions, |. e.: The taste says:
lit Ia good" tue eye says: at IL pretty;"
the entire physical forces of the body
cay: sit is pleasing" The Brain in
turn telegrsphs the entire system "aot, )"
and of course, the different members
of the human form Immediately
set about to carry out the mandate of
the approved mOnaroh-Brain.
IL distance has TO be travelled, the
pedal extremities go to work. If any
thing to be tasted, the lips and mouth
instantly obey. II a pretty girl Is at
your side, with the usual moonlight at
tachment, seclusion, etc, is it a wonder
that well organized physical organs
transmit their admiration OF the fair
being by its side to the tyrant Brain,
and that he In turn silently propels the
Obedient arm or arms (sOmetimes two
are used, but seldom by people of taste)
to perform the duties which are mans
by inheritance and feudal custom.
Thus 1t Is that man Is bound to some
times Overstep the boundaries Of polite
ness and become victim to clrcum-
stances and pretty form. The act,
of course, is resented wouldn't give
cent for girl who wouldn't)
still there is, not notwithstanding her pout
OF several days standing, a pleased look
In her eyes, and why Is she pleased? Be-
cause she knows that 1t is her beauty
her sweetness, her perfection Of form
that Kind nature has endowed her with,
that has prompted the offender to cast
all wisdom and decOrum TO the winds -
that has given him the courage to face
the anger that certainly must follow.
1--WE would rather face battery vomit-
ing grape and canister than an Offend
ed lady friendly Then she Is sure to
know that the cause for the mischief or
there is any, Is in the fact OF her possess
ing charms, as poet puts sufficient to
make one throw stones at his grand
mother" She pouts, acts very angry,
but soon throws out an influence which
slowly but surely brings about recon-
ciliatiOn.

LADY LAY DELEGATES.
The Methodist General Conference Labo
ing on the Question of Their ADM

The Methodist General Conference Labor
ing on the Question of Their Adnis-
sion.
New YORK, May 4-Bishop E. G. An
drews presided at Yesterdays session of
the Methodist conference. The order of
the day was the discussion OF the adverse
report of the committee upon the eligibility
of women as lay delegates 10 the confer
ence.
Rev. DR.. PendletOn, of Kansas, was the
first to gain the floor. and he moved that
the women whose seats were contested
should be given seats on the floor during
the debate. To this Rev. DR.. Nicely. of
Philadelphia, objected. Rev. c. F. Creigh-
ton, Of Nebraska. spoke in favor of the
motion. After considerable discussion the
motion was lost.
When the vote was being taken Mrs.
Mary c. Mind, of Minnesota, president of
The Women's Foreign Missionary Society.
stood up to vote. Objection was made aud
her vote was not counted.
Rev. DR.. Potts, editor of the Michigan
AdrocIte. who is deaf, was given permission
10 open the debate He advocated the ad-
mission of the women as delegates. He
wanted to plead for right over might
There was no decision as to whether lay
delegates" meant men only. More than
two-thirds Of the members of the Church
were women. Without women one-haIf of
the churches would cease to exist.
Women could not be left out without harm
TO the Church. The speaker was loudly
applauded, not only by the ladies and
others in the auditorium, but by the dele
gates as well.
Rev. William Brush, Of Dakota, made
long and earnest plea in favor of the ad-
mission of women, and Rev. DR.. Theodore
F. Flood, editor of the ChdataUq~In, fol-
lowed on the same side. He argued that
as women were admitted to the learned
professions and TO practice in the Supreme
Court OF the United States, the conference
had right to admit Them.
Rev. j. H. Buckley, editor Of the Chris
tan Advocate, who was one of the strongest
opponents of the admission OF woman, was
the next speaker. He said that the Ques-
ton did not turn upon the right of woman,
but upon principe. Episcopaliars, Bat
lists and Presbrterians did not admit
women into their conferences aid there
was not denomination in the world that
would admit women. There was nothing
in the constitution OF the Church that gave
them the right to seats. The spca: 1er said
he stood TO champion tae holy cause of the
women but also stood to champion the
right of women TO representation ia body
until a member of their sex had az oppor-
tunlty to express an opinion on The sub
Iect. He claimed that every time woman
was put in legislative body man was
put OF to no advantage Of that bcdy.
\ dozen members of the conference from
ali parts of the country took opposite views
on the question, and further discussion
went over.
