ton OF this thesis. / can only call your atten-
ton to a few of the steps which have most sig
nificance for us.
!, The poets and the prophets have always.
throughout this period, maintained perfectly
calm faith and trust that facts would eventu-
ally prove what their vision could see-that
love was dominant everywhere. Moreover,
large numbers of the recognized philosophers
and Tyndall, who can surely not be thought to
have spiritual axes to grind, have recognized
altruism as unquestionably factor In organic
Development
The point of peculiar interest for US is the
altogether unique Importance which Mr..
Drummond assigns to the function of mother
nood as an 1nstrumentahty WHEREBY 10 intro
duce the higher altruism into the life of hui
manity.
In the relationship OF mother and child with
its mutual dependence, there was involved the
necessity of carefulness, protection and self
sacrifice and these inevitably grew into tender
ness, gentleness unselfshness and love.
The closer the association of the mother with
the child, the more brooding her carefulness,
! the more surely would the children survive,
! and hence these altruistic qualities would tend
! to become perpetuated through the law OF
! BILE care-taking OF the mother among mammals
and the attendant regard OF the child for this
| care taker and food-giver, was the first con-
! scious affection developed.
Love had come into expression at least by
means of little child in the mothers arms.
] Oh, that all the world might truly feel the
meaning of this gospel of science! Would that
those who hunger for motive, those that
! yearn for O meaning in life as it is, those who
long for an intelligent hope for the future of
mankind, could catch the spirit of this lesson
| More strong than Drummond expresses it,
more literally than we conceive is there q
| oneness in this universe OF ours. There is a
unity connecting every atom. There is one
life binding each to all. Can we but under

result of the coming together Of the repre-
sentative women of this coast it is difficult
to affix the limit to the good to De accom-
plished. It will broaden and deepen the
interest of the women in their homes and
enable them to see the increased influence
she will have on the State and on society
through the home. 1t will lead to the
enlargement of woman's vocation as well
as to the strengthening of her influence.
The coming together of many women in

toward their advancement on all lines

life was that of slave and a drudge. But
the deacons believed in marrying early
and often. Deacon Seawell had no less
than good half-dozen to his score. The
poor overworked women of colonial days
In New England died young-worked to
death. But conditions are changing, and
the light of their emancipation-thei
complete emancipation-is breaking in the
east"
The discussion was led by Miss Sever
ance. She had a few happy remarks to
make about the hard time men have had
in finally deciding that woman has soul.
Mrs. Bowles said it was natural that
woman should be bone of contention
since she was made from the bone of a
man.
Mrs. Nelson said there were a great
many ignoble people in the world, and
they come from homes, TOO. A good home
cannot exist without good people In 1t.
The human race is the youngest race on
earth and the shortest lived also. The
male and female of the older though infe-
rlor races are generally on an even footing.
That is particularly so with the older races.
But with the bees, ants and spiders the
female is in the ma jority and does most OF
work that is worth anything.
1t is q misconception to think that the
women OF the ancient races were forced to
work. They were not forced to work, be-
cause they were women. They worked,
ana worked well, because they were
women. Women have the constructive
energy OF the human family. Men do not
work unless the law compels them to. 1t
Is mans nature to go out and kill some
thing. But to go back to the bees and
aunts- The female bees DO all the work
and the males are killed off. The female
spider turns on her poor little husband
after the courtship and eats linn up.
Mrs. Gushing offered her testimony in
behalf of women's equality with men, and
the meeting stood adjourned until 7:45
O'clock

who report that, although the invention is
a good one, it is too expensive. The two
inventors propose to take the fender before
the Board of Supervisors.
The fender is designed to fit upon the
car truck. It is made of iron throughout,
and is so designed that when the front por-
ton strikes an obstruction two lids fall
down, thus preventing the body passing
under the wheels. The faster the car goes,
it is claimed, the quicker will the obstruc-
ton be moved off the track. There is also
provided an arrangement of wires, which
is designed to prevent the body going over

THE REV. MRS. ADA c. BowLEs.

Editor Call: think the possibilities of
the Woman's Congress are manifold and
magnificent, and it is impossible to over
estimate the effect of bringing together
such concourse of representative,
thoughtful, earnest and intellectual
women of California and the country.
1t will have the effect of advancing every
movement in behalf of women and will
deepen the respect felt for her by the
male members of society. Her scope of
work will be increased and it is impos-
sible to say how far-reaching the influence
of such annual gatherings may be.

Editor Call: think this congress will
have an immense weight with the public.
Its effect on the suffrage movement will be
beneficial. We have the representative
wives and the mothers of the land with US,

backward about taking an open stand for
fear of the unpopularity of the question.
