A Test Of Civilization

One Of the principal tests by which
we may estimate the degree Of civiliza-
ton to which a nation has attained, is
its treatment OF woman. When man
was a savage, woman was no more than
a companion animal. When he attained
to the stage OF barbarian. and had
enough intelligence to abandon caves
and build for himself dwelling. woman
became the household drudge, doing the
heavy labor OF the field also, and being
a chattle, disrosable at the pleasure Of
her lord or master. Among the Greeks
the Romans and the Jews. her condition
wac somewhat improved. but polygamy
was awful. The Teutonic nations Of the
nineteenth century have placed her on
higher plane, and she is accorded a
respect and Difference that excites the
astonishment Of Orientals. among many
of whom woman is treated as being
without a mind to be cultivated or a
soul to be saved. 1t is. however. in our
own country thst . woman has attained
the position Of the beloved and honored
queen. In truth it may be ssid that
among the better classes, all things ex-
ist for woman. Therailroads. especially,
take every means to provide tor her
safety and her comfort. and II she is
travelling alone. great pains are taken to
insure her pleasant journey. In this
respect, "The Burlington" takes the
lead, and the Burlington Route is wide.

The students who attend our univer-
stiles and colleges are evidently in need
of education and training. The Uni
versity student who tore out a night
line car in Philadelphia, has been re-
leased without other punishment than
the disgrace of arrest and exposure;
but the students of Cornell who killed
woman with chlorine gas cannot be
let off so easily if they should be dis
covered. They had learned enough OF
chemistry to be able to make chlorine
gas, but not enough to keep them from
playing dadgerous trick resulting in
homicide. But the education of such
students should begin by teaching them
to be gentlemen. They could learn
chemistry afterwards.

the occasions for imflammstOry and

converted into a meeting for propagat-
