Susan b. Anthony thinks we are
upon an era of unmarried women.
She saws 80 calmly, and does not feel
alarmed over the fact IN the least
When asked for her views upon the
clash between men and women in the
fields Of labor, she said that it Wa
an unhealthful condition of atfairS,
but one that could not be helped.
at is by our changing civilization,
said she. Take man with a
large family and only one son. lie
and the sou cannot make enough to
support the family and there is
nothing at home to busy the daugh-
tiers. The women used spin, weave,
make carpets and soap and do all
that kind of work, but now all this
is done in factories, and now there
is nothing for them to do but to go
to work in the factories or elsewhere.
Young men do not make enough to
support wife, and so do not marry,
and again there is among them such
craze for drinking, gambling and
dissipation that many young woman
would rather go into a store and
work for almost nothing than to
marry one of them. Yes, | think
we are upon an era of unmarried
women. 1t is not a condition to
be desired, but conditions are never
pleasant during a period Of social
revolution, and | think it will end
in state Of society which will be al
elevation for both man and women.

Wonderful Fall In a Biblical River

The river Jordan in Palestine has the
most remarkable fall or descent of any
short river in the world The name of
the river is from the Hebrew word jar
den, meaning the descender. and that it
is well named may be judged from the
following figures concerning its fall: At
its source near Hasbaye the stream has
an elevation of / 200 feet above the level
of the Mediterranean sea, and at the
place where it empties into the Dead sea
it is 1900 feet below the level of the
Mediterranean, making a total fall of
about even 5000 feet.
The distance from Hasbaye springs
to the Dead sea is 120 miles, and the to-
tai length of the river, counting the
windings OF the channel, 200 miles.
From this we must subtract 90 miles for
the lake and mOrass of HOoleh and the
sea OF Galilee, leaving but $50 miles of
river proper, which gives the river an
average fall of II feet to the mile
throughout its entire course. Few riv-
ers have such a fall and fewer still de-
scend as the Jordan does, without either
cascades or waterfalls.-St. Louis Re

Speaking EXtempore.

To speak extempore is one of the rocks
upon which club women oftenest go to
pieces Women who can write brilliant
papers find themselves lame and helpless
if called upon to express an opinion with
out notes.
1t has been said that the ability to
think on ones feet is a matter more of
temperament than education, and that
some people can never learn to do that,
let them try as they will. The women's
clubs have demonstrated the falsity of
this assertion. Many women who were
seemingly hopelessly tongue tied at their
first efforts have become by practice hu-
ent extemporaneous speakers.
1t is practice of many clubs to have
frequent meetings during the season
where no papers are permitted, and the
value of this experience is shown in a
marked gain in confidence among the
members. OF course magnetism of man
ner is individual and cannot be cult
waited, but simple ease and tiuency can

A Naturalization.

One of the English papers is much
distressed at the constant misquotihg
of Carlyle's famous definition of genius.
He did not say in his history of Fred
erick the Great" anything so simple as
genius, which means infinite capacity
for taking palms." That was too ordi-
nary for the Chelsea sage. What he
did say was genius, which means
transcendent capacity Of taking trouble,
first of ALL" That is more like him.
The sentence is so often quoted it may
as well be quoted straight. Boston

was much impressed by what a
woman said to me the other day.
She was no longer young, has never
married and lives with her mother,
who is a widow.
II saw a woman cling to the dead
hand of her mother and kiss it over
and over again, as though she could
never let it 90. A shudder passed
through me as | thought of the time
when | should probably do the same
thing. The next time | looked on
the dear old rinkled hand of my
mother, the hand which was never
weary in doing for me, the same
saddening thought came to me
again.
"'Then a sudden resolve was taken.
L will not wait till she cannot feel
any kisses upon her hand, | thought,
Il will kiss the dear, patient fingers
whenever | think it would please
her, and especially when they come
to me in waiting upon me or in serv-
ing me in some way
"Now, If you will believe me, |
had never kissed my mothers hand
in my life, and the first time of do
ing anything is always hard and
means something of an effort.
.To be sure, | had often run up
to my mother and given her a good
hug when | was going away to be
gone any time, and when came
back; but this was another thing,
and | didn't know just how she
would take it.
This Is the way got around it.
The next time she handed me some
thing, think it was letter or
card OF some little trifle, bent very
low over her hand in quite curJly
fashion and kissed 1t as if half in
jest.
81 saw by The smile and the light
ming up of her face that she liked
it. So after that it came very easy.
At first she would sometimes say,
half depreciaui.gly: NO, no, dearie;
it is such an ugly old hand but |
always kissed it again then and said:
Not at all. 1t is a long way
from being ugly, and it is the best
hand known. Such a useful hand
as it is, or it is small hand yet,
and will never be a common place
one,' or perhaps | just give it an ex-
ira squeeze and kiss.
"But in any case it always pleases
her, and she gives my head a little
pat and says darling, or some gentle
little word.
Nov, If that dreaded day ever
comes to me, when | feel that want
to cling to the dead hand and kiss
it back to life, | shall at least be
saved from the remorse and sting of
the thought that | never gave it that
caress when it would have warmed
the dear old heart and helped to
make the weariness and loneliness of
life a little brighter and sweeter.
"Now, no matter how undemon-
strative, self-contained, or even cold
your mother is, she is toucht d and
pleased by some such little attention
from her daughter or son, as she is
from no other source on earth.
eve hear SO much about women
not forgetting to pet their husbands,
which is certainly good advice; but
no one seems to think of the mother
whose children seem to think they
have got beyond the age to care for
caresses.
GA woman Is never too old to be
kissed by those she loves, and the
attention os daughter or son are
the deasest things to her this side of
heaven. Alice G. Ives, in New
York Recorder.

''Woman's Purity A Nations Greatness

"WOm1n's Purity A Nations Greatness
The purity of woman is a nations
greatness. Look to the United
States and to England and see the
cause of their power and greatness,
and it can be attributed to the purity
of their women. Then on the other
hand look to France, where marriage
vows are considered as little, and
where the purity of woman is hard
ly demanded, where wine seller in
which to stow away their wines is of
more importal c. than the virture of
their wives and daughters.
Whenever Nation, State, county,
town or neighborhood fail to respect
the virture of the woman, and look
down to it instead of revering it,
then that Nation or State or county
or town or neighborhood is on the
down grade and it is only question
of time when it reaches the bottom,
where it will be abhorred by all
good women and men.
1t is hard thing to build up q
good reputation; it takes life of
devotion to principle, yet the lowest
whelp in all christendom can by his
foul mouth Islander. soil the charac-
ter of the purest woman or the
noblest man. The man who would
say anything that could in anyway
iniure woman's character, is lower
than the cur dogs, as they will de-
fend each other from assaults. Lord
help the man who would stoop Sc
low as to say harm against the sex
that gave him birth.
Hold woman's purity as high as
you do your religion.
