the world and lifted woman from serf-
dom and burden-bearing and the
church became her stronghold, until, in
the Eleventh century, Hildebrand,
preaching celibscy to the clergy !,
taught indirectly that marriage was
not conducive to holy Irving.
Then followed dark centuries for woman !,
until chivalry idealized her, and glori-
fed love. Toillng up the road by these
rugged steps, woman at last stands upon
common platform with her associate,
man. He has kept pace with her, and
to-day he is willing to help her. The
yoke of centuries IS thrown off aud in the
main she finds man fair and just.
In this as in oil great advances mis-
takes have been made, enthusiasts and
fanatics would have woman DER leap
the bounds divinely placed and defy the
eternal laws af her being. Nothing is
better on earth than the ideal home
nothing is grander within the scope of
female accomplishment than to wisely
order that home and to have sous and
daughters rise up and call a woman
blessed. No higher destiny can await
one-that Is woman's sphere-out of
that, as class, women can only
hope to attain mediocrity Individual
women may exceed in deeds individual
men, but by this the truth IS unaffected.
Yet the advance is all along the line, and
are parents preparing their daughters
for it? The sweets of independence are
precious. and at home and at school
women should be trained to earn them.
Chivalry as q sentiment is fading before
the light of the Nineteenth century and
feeling is fast growing that women must
earn what they would possess. ca
pacity for independence is now a woman s
birthrght, and she has reason to expect
that broad, practical culture will be
given her. Neither does this unfit her
for the ideal home that enters into the day
dreams of almost every woman, What
ever the sphere, through culture and
careful training equip for potent work
and practical sagacity. If parents
would only think that their daughters
may have to stand shoulder to shoulder
with men in the workshops Of human in
dustry, and that the day has come when
the quality of the work is considered and
not the workers, there would be more
anxiety shown to fit their daughters for
usefulness at home, in the Office, or
wherever necessity and sense of duty may
call them.
