May it not be possible that he too
was drunkard, and that the son may
have inherited his appetite for drink,
rather than acquired it IN conse-
quence of a mothers neglectG And
again, may not the fact of the unfor-
tunate home life of this wife and
mother be the very thing that has
impressed her most forcibly with the
idea of the ssnctity Of the real home?
Indeed, there is food for the
thoughtful in the paragraphs which
we have taken for our text, and we
earnestly recommend the editors of
the Globe and of the Wichita Opinion
to become for once seriously thought
full.
There is still another morsel of
food for thought in this Globe para
graph.
1t is assumed to be solely the fault
of the mother that the son should
have become a drunksrd and MUIR
derer. Aside from the probability
that he inherited his appetite for
drink or acquired 1t from the exam
pie of a father, whether this be true
or not, had the father no responsible
ity in the training of the son2 Is he
entirely blameless, and must the en-
tire fault rest upon the shoulders OF
the mother? Where was he when
thus son was becoming a drunkard
and in consequence a murderer, and
what was he doing all this time?
So much for the food in the Globe
paragraph. A word now to the edi-
tor of the Wichita Opinion. He
specially recommends this ''food for
the thoughtful" in the Globe para
graph to the advocates of woman suf-
frage. We recommend 1t in turn to
the advocates of man suffrage. If it
has any bearing whatever upon the
suffrage question it argues in favor Of
Conferring the franchise upon women;
because when they have the fran
Chise they may be relied upon to find
some method by which to preserve
the sanctity of the home from the
ravsges Of the demon of drink, and
save the sons Of the good mothers of
this land from becoming drunkards
and murderers. 1t is one Of the sig
nifcant facts in the discussion OF this
suffrage question that the opponents
of equal suffrage are almost unsnl-
mously advocates Of the saloon.
The editor of the Opinion says, ut
is possible that, had Mrs. Harris
filed property the position for which
she was created. her son would have
been living to-day an honored man."
Indeed! And who shall define for
her 'the position for which she was
created" Is it the business OF the
editor Of the Opinion or of society to
define it, What has become OF that
dogma Of personal liberty" so popu-
lar in certain quarters! Who shall
declare to Mrs. Harris 'the position
for which she was created3 Surely

mothers how 10 look after their sons, her
own SON became dHunkRrd and q murderer.
She also had q good deal to say about the
sanctity Of the home, but she has not lived

There is food for the thoughtful in the
foregoing from the Atohison Globe. We
specially recommend il to the advocates Of
woman suffrage. It is possible that, had
Mrs. Harris filed properly the position for

ita Opinion, June 8.
Yes, there is food for the thought
full, both in the text and the comment
above quoted, Were it fact that
the son Of no mother who is not q
temperance lecturer ever became a
drunkard or a murderer, the para
graph from the Globe might have
some point What is the matter with
all the other good mothers Of this
world whose sons go down to dishon-
orable graves by the thousand every
year? It has become so common,
when woman has the courage to
step aside from the beaten path
which society" has mapped out for
her sex, to attribute every misfortune
which may befsll either her or her
family to neglect Of home duties that
many people have been led to
thoughtlessly accept this explanation
as the cause of such evils. There
is abundant food for thought in the
question whether there is any ground
for such an opinion. Let us endeavor
to digest a little of this food.
The number Of mothers who have
become known to the world because
Of their writing of books or because
Of their appearance upon the public
platform, like the number of fathers
who have made regulations in like
manner, when compared with the
vast multitudes of our race, is very
small; and those who assume that
neglect of home duties by these moth
ers is the cause of the degenerscy OF
their sons should first show that the
proportion of degenerate sons OF such
mothers Is greater than Of those
mothers who confne themselves
solely to the routine duties Of home
life. Can they do this? We think
not. There is altogether too little
thought and too much prejudice in
the minds Of writer's upon this sub
ject.
It is said Of the mother Of Carlyle
Harris that "While she was telling
other mothers how to look after their
sons, her own son became a drunksrd
and a murderer" Is it not barely
possible that her own son becoming a
drunkard might have been largely
instrumental in srousing her to the
magnitude of the evil Of drink and
inducing her to become q temperance
lecturer? Do these newspaper scrib-
blers who talk SO glibly about women
filling '4he places for which they
were created" really know what they

How many of us roll up the curtain

nothing to be gained by a winning

are ready enough to show off, but in
our own family circle we lay aside our

A story used to be told at Cairo of
the late Sir Richard Owen during one of
his sojourns in Egypt. The great nat
uralist was seated in the shade on the
veranda at Sheppeard's hotel, as is the
pOst-prandial wont of visitors to that
famous hostelry, when the inevitable
snake-charmer came to him and pro-
duced from his bag lively specimen Of
the horned asp--the deadly cerastes.
The professor gaZed, sand, nothing
daunted, stopped and plucked the horns
from the head of the reptile wriggling
at his feet. remarking to bystander
that the man would probably think
twice before trying to palm off upon any
one else harmless snake as a cerastes
by the aid of couple Of fish bones.
With anybody else the charmer would
probably have succeeded. He had
tried it Oh the wrong man.
