Though the sermon was addressed to
women, quite a number OF gentlemen
were present.
Mr.. Jones spoke Of q report which
said that Dallas man would accept his
challenge to defend dancing, giving him
the last words in a fifteen minutes
speech. Mr.. Jones said he offered $500
to q Christian man who would defend il,
but would not allow a buzzRrd to
get up and puke on his crowd for
$1,000; that he could ind men
who were not Christians to defend it
without paying anything. He said,
f1hT 10 ha IL
las, Fort Worth is ahead for once, as she
has no man bad enough to defend the
dance. There is no ground this side of
heaven where Christian can defend the
dance on Bible principles. The Bible
says there is time to dance. Yes,
BelshaZZar had a feast, and that
was one time. Whenever the whole
bushes is played out the time to dance Is
Immediately. Herod wanted 10 take the
head of the grandest man on earth; then
was time to dance. Z"
Mr.. Jones read his text and said: ''I
like that title, woman. 1 don Z 20 much
on lady. 1 am glad my mother was q
woman; my wife is woman; my girls
may become women. I want my wife to
be true, good, noble woman. / don't
go much on this lady business God
never talked about ladies. I never went
much on that term gentlemen. I
like the word man. When ] meet
a company OF little old vagabonds /
always say Good morning, gentlemen.
The terms man and woman mean great
deal. The best thing you can say or a
female is she is a grand, noble woman.
The best you can say OF q male, che il
grand, noble man. -
After speaking OF the fall Mr.. Jones
said Adam must have been q
teenth century gentlemen, trying TO
put off all his meanness on his wife. It
has got so If a man drinks whisky It is
because his wife treats him so mean. I
don t know how you can put up with It.
poor fellow, 1t is a pity he drinks
Sometimes man marrIe5 one or these
old typhoOns who gives him some trouble.
Men drink whisky because they want 10
aud because they are mean. That's
fact.
80 And the Lord said viii put enmity
between thee and the serpent. God
has implanted in woman's heart eternal
hatred to the devil, and her character
and usefulness depend upon how she car
rles this hatred in her life. Sisters, the
devil is trying bis best 20 ruin you, your
husband and your children. When q
man falls he can rise again, but when
the devil gets his foot on a Woman's
neck she never rises again II there is
anything on this earth that should fight

one Of those who believe that God made
woman in every essential equal to man.
Some say God took rib from the right

woman came from, but when my
wife gets sick my side hurts. When a
man sees his wife suffer he says, on,

that woman is very close 10 man.
l believe a woman has goo as much sense
as man, not got quite so much logic,
