The Real Meaning Of Equal Rights -
Woman Suffragists---An illustration -
the Correct Principle.

The Real Meaning Of Equal Rights -
the Correct Principle.
Ground has been taken that men
have a natural and divine right to ex-
ercise control and authority over
women: and she assumes throughout
her argument that women who seek the
suffrage want it for the purpose of ruiz
ing over and coerciug men. Now. the
belief of the woman suffragists is. that
neither sex. as such. has right to rule
over or coeree the other;but that men and
women alike are entitled to self-govern-
ment. within reasonable limits; and
that. in q republic. the wish Of the ma
jority of citizens ought to rule
In taking a vote to find out what the
wish Of the majority is on any question
Of common public interest. why should
One-half of the citizens be arbitrarily
shut out from being counted? 1t has
been said that there ia point in boys
development after which wise mother
will not try to govern him by physical
force. Undoubtedly. There is point
in boys development after which .
wise father will not try to govern him
by physical force. Does it follow that
the father ought not to vote? No young
man over twenty-one thinks that either
parent has right to coerce him. But
when he comes to vote. does the fac.
that his father also votes strike him rs
an outrage on his self-respect. and an
attempt on the fathers part to govern
him by physical force? Not at all. No
intelligent man regards an election as a
bullying attempt of his neighbOr TO
cOerce him by violence. but as a peace
able process to ascertain the wish of the
majority. to which it is understood that
the minority shall yield.
In like manner. if the young man and
his mother both belong to the MethO-
dist Church, the mother as we'll as the
son has q vote in the church affairs,
and he does not feel himself 'antagon-
lied" or degraded in consequence. II
they both own stock in the same bust
ness corporation. the fact that his
mother has a vote in virtue of her
stock does not ''deal a deadly blow at
his self-respect and his respect for her."
1t would be the same if his mother had
a vote, as she ought to have. in the
larger affairs Of the city and Nation
The principle is identical. As George
William Curtis says. "A woman may
vote as stakeholder upon railroad
from one end of the country to another.
But if she sells her stock and buys .
house with the money. she has no voice
in the laying out of the road before her
door. which her house is taxed to keep
and pay for.-Aiice Stone Blackwell, in
CAristian Union.

Lord Byron persisted. and ten thou.

deemed. man blood-bought, climb up
out Of those shadows. Climb up by the
way q the cross. Have your wasted life
forgiven, have your eternal life secured.
This morning Just take one look to the
past and see what it has been and take one
look to the future and see what it threatens
to be. You can afford to lose your health,
you can afford to lose your property, you
can afford to lose your reputation, but you
can not AFFORD to lose your soul. That
bright, cleaning, glorious, precious, eter-
nal possession you must carry aloft in the
day when the earth burns up and the
heavens burst
You see from my subject that when .
man goes into the safety and peace of the
Gospel, he does not demean himself. There
is nothing in religion that leads to mean
ness or unmanliness. The Gospel of Jesus
Christ only asks you to climb as Jonathan
did-climb toward God, climb toward
Heaven, climb into the sunshine of Gods
favor. To become q Christian is not to 60
meanly down; it is to come gloriously up
up into the communion Of saints, up into
the peace that passeth all understanding,
up into the companionship Of angels. He
lives up; he dies up.
o, then, accept the wholesale invitation
which l make this morning to all the
people. Come up from between your in
validism and financial endorsements.
Come mp from between your bereavements
and your restitution. Come mp from be.
tween q wasted life and an unillumined
eternity. Like Jonathan, climb with all
your might, instead Of sitting down t.,
wiring your hands in the shadow and in
the darkness-''a sharp rock on the one
side and a sharp rock on the other side"

Woman's Ingenuity

Laugh at the tinkering of women -
you choose. but it has been my observa-
ton that almost every continuance for
use in the house has been made and
suggested by the woman. and not by
the man. In almost every house where
there are children you will find q baby
house, in size from a starch box to .
packing box, made by mammals hands
Then there il the sitting-rOOm sOfa,
made from an old packing box.
A young housekeeper whose means
are limited. made the whole furniture,
with the exception of bed. for her bed
rooms. The dressing-case. or bureau.
was fitted with shelves instead Of draw
ers, and the whole covered with a cur
tain Of cretonne. On the top Of either
end were placed small starch boxes
fitted with shelves. the whole covered
with cretonne, with curtains to hide the
shelves. The goods were fastened down
with tac3xs which were hidden by a mar
row pleating of the same material.
Above the washstand was placed look
ing-glass about two-and-a-half feet in
length; over this was canopy Of Gre
tonne, the board at the top being about
ten inches in width and not quite the
length Of the width Of the glass. The
cloth was laid on the board in box
pleats. The whole separated in the
form Of a pair Of curtains. and were Sc
cured with ribbon bows at the top Of
the stand. Under the glass was a mar
row shelf with a lambrequin Of Gre
tonne. The chairs were made OF boxes
covered with the same goods. No backs
being used. the tops were padded with
cotton batting. The whole gave the
appearance Of handsomely furnished
room. the total cost not exceeding two
guineas.
This woman IL no exception to the
rule. In nine cases out Of ten you will
find the girls quite as handy with the
tools as the men; and, indeed. in many
parts of Europe you will find women
engaged in every branch Of carpentry
work.-Yankes Blade.

GOING INTO MOURNING.

Outward Trappings Of Woe Which Can h
Treated with Caustic Ridicule.
There are certain aspects of Chris
tian burial" which have grown so dis
cordant with our more intelligen,
forms of social life that they have be
come even ludicrous, and can, there
fore. be most wholesomely treated
with the caustic of ridicule. The mos,
conspicuous of these is covered and
described by the comprehensive name
of mourning" l have heard bril-
liant society belle Borrowing bitterly
over the fact that, just as her most
impressive costumes were prepared
for a seasons campaign. the demise OF
distant relative made it necessary
for her 10 ''go into mourning'-a fact
which had but the one compromising
circumstance, that '.black was becom-
ing to her."
In all the large cities stores may be
found where the mortuary expert can
determine to shade the style of dress
that constitutes ''full mourning" and
where the length of a vail is solemnly
regarded as expressive of what Mr..
Mould termed ''filial affection" There
is mourning jewelry." mourning
visiting cards." mourning station
cry" mourning etiquette" and
knew of one gentleman who carried
his loyalty to these modes and shows
of grief to the extent of having the
blue ribbons that adorned his night
gown solemnly replaced with black!
But the CHASTITY humor reaches is
climax in the contemplation of "halt-
mourning" or second mourning ="
This symbOlizes sorrow vanishir 9
through the ministration OF the mill
ner and the mantua maker! 1t is an
interesting but certainly not an edify-
ing sight to see blooming young
widow pass through those various
stages of grief which rigid etiquette
demands, from the midnight gloom of
costly Grape, through the subdued
twilight of second mourning back
to the full daylight of gorgeous color.
