Individual stationery is notion that

Each woman must have something that

original. something by which her pri-

What Suffrage Will Do.

Woman suffrage will, because it will
treat woman as an individual. give her
her natural rights, make her socially
the equal of man. ask for her thoughts
and consider them. This will help
greatly to ennOble woman, and secure
from man more respect, more reverence.
and therefore a truer love. Whatever
makes woman more free and independ-
ent. and recognizes her equality with
man, will tend to purify all the rela-
tons between them. Perfect freedom
and equality are needed to make these
relations what they should be- In
equality and lack Of freedom are temptar
tons and hinAerances to trpe love. pure
marriage and noble home. 10 be
truly one in all respects, one in mind
and will as well as one in heart, the
! wife as well as the husband must think
and have a will of her own. with absO-

and will. and to make them count
Then can the higher and truer union
come. With larger freedom comes al
ways good, and sometimes also evil
With larger freedom there must be
more of conscience. But perfect free

or society.

frage come. not only is it right which
it were vain. as it is wrong. to deny,
but, as in the case of all previous ex-
tensions of freedom. we may rest as
sured that, though there be temporary
evils in its train, on the whole its result
will be grandly, nobly gOod.-Homa"s

The philosophers of India once pos
sessed book 50 large that it required

King desired to have it abridged. 1t
was reduced so that it could be carried
by one hundred camels. Others de-
manded that it be reduced still more.
until ut last the volume was reduced
to four maxims. The first taught
justice to rulers: the second, obedi-
cnce to the people: the third. temper
ance to men. and the fourth. mOdesty
to women This is much like the say

to him said: 20. rabbi. teach me the

soul OF that departed one passed
among pleasant trees whose fragrance

him beautiful maiden whose form

If young man imagines that he has
an aptitude for public speaking-that
is. if he has great desire to make his
ideas known to the world-the proba-
bility is that the desire will choose the
way. time and place for him to make
the effort. II ne really has something
to say there will be plenty to listen. Ii
he is so carried away with his subject.
is so in earnest that he becomes an in
strumentality of his thought-sO that he
is forgotten by himself; so that he cares
neither for applause nor censure-sim-
ply caring to present his thoughts in
the highest and best and most compre-
hensive way. the probability is that he
will be an orator. Otherwise, no.
think oratory is something that can
not be taught. Undoubtedly man can
learn to be fair talker. He can. by
practice. learn to present his ideas con-
secutively. clearly and in what you may
call form" but there is as much diff
