of Corinthians suggested Tolstoi's
Kreutzer Sonata, which itself is mix
ture, as the chapter is, Of truth and
error, good reasoning and prejudice
with not line of inspiration in it.
Enough OF Paul. He stands for the
silence and humility OF women in the
New Testament. Christ liked gentle
soft-voiced women like Mary, Martha's
sister. and he said 90, but he was wise
enough not to attempt to settle the
woman question. The text Of the Old
Testament is conflicting. When read Of
Deborah and the ideal woman in the
last chapter of Proverbs 1 conclude the
question should be changed to read:
Does not the Bible teach that God
created man subject to and subordinate
to woman, etc. etc. The Bible con-
tradicts itself il you take it by texts.
Take it altogether, Bible Student and
you are all right. The laet part of the
question, viz. "Is it not dangerous pre-
sumption for hsr to claim to be his
equal" is too vague to try to answer,
Dangerous TO man or to woman or to
society? Dangerous how? II she
claims to be his equal will man hit her
or will she run against the furniture
and bruise herself?
SARAH B. HARRIS.
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1895-09-28

ever it may be in the Bible, whether it
was originally decreed that woman
should be subordinate to man, whether
the man should rule over the woman,
it is evident that the prophecy in
Jeremiah has been fulfilled. The new
woman whom the Lord hath created
has comprised man. and there can be
no presumption IN claiming to be able
to do what she has already done.
w. MORTON SMITH
The Bible undoubtedly teaches that
woman should be subservient to man,
but does it say that she was, is, or
ever will be! 1t began with Eve who
wheedled Adam into eating more fruit
than was good for him. Then there
was Rebekah who put gloves on Jacob
and deceived poor Isaac into willing
his property to the wrong son. Later
Rachel made poor Jacob herd sheep for
her IA years and then made him
sublimely miserable after he got her.
Then SIMPSONS wife gave away her
husbands secrets which she had tor.
tured out Of him, and made her hus-
band lose his bet. Afterwards Del
ilah, worked him for all he was
worth and didn't even leave him his
hair. David was the life long servant
OF every woman who looked at him,
and Solomon his son, that writer of
erotic poetry, was certainly no better.
The Egyptian princess even made him
quit his elaborate temple and worship
strange gods. Jezabel ruled with a rod
OF iron three generations Of the kings Of
Israel, Esther made Ahasuerus swing
Haaman on gallows fifty cubits high
and give up his idea Of race persecution.
These ne only few OF the hundred
instances in which the women
who were undoubtedly created subser-
Went turned the tables. In theory the
Jews maintained the superiority of man
but in practice it did not always fol.
low. Woman may be mans inferior
but she makes him pay for it.
VILLA GATHER
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1895-09-28

The Bible says, Gen. 2:22 "And the
rib which the Lord God had taken from
man, he made q woman, and brought
her unto the man." In the third chap
ter Of Genesis, sixteenth verse it is
said. "And thy desire shall be thy
husband, and he shall rule over thee. I"
These verses probably form the basis
OF the assumtion that the Bible de-
clares woman to be mans inferior. But
the Bible is contradictory. In nearly
every dispute each disputant can prove
that he is right by . reference to the
Bible. In jeremiah 3l:22 it is said:
"For the Lord hath created new thing
in the earth. A woman shall compass
a man." In Corinthians We find that
the head Of the woman IL the man.
In Corinthians it 10 also said: But the
woman 10 the glory OF the man." st.
Paul teaches that it is shame for
woman to speak in the church." How
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1895-09-28

The Bible most certainly does not
teach that God created woman to be
subordinate and subject to man. Ills
purpose Is clearly stated in Genesis
211-18. And the Lord God said lit
is not good that the man should be
alone. / will make him an help. meet
for him." A help-meet. is her rightful
sphere. And though placed under lin.
itations by the curse in the garden, in 90
far as she is able to prove her powers
as help-meet, just 80 far is she able
to fulfill the Creators design. II woman
were intended merely to administer to
the physical comfort OF man, why
should she be given an intellect 30
closely allied to his own? A creature
of instincts or inferior mental endow-
ments could we'll fill the place of SUBJ
ordinate. Mental ability in woman
proves divine purpose to make her a
heip-meet in a higher sense. She is
mans mental counterpart-His equal
in that she is able to supply that
which he lacks. Here are two sources
Of thought, equal under the same disci-
pline and yet essentially different.
Each the complement Of the other.
The growing recognition OF this
and Of its possibilities can but
result in complete and higher Union
OF man and woman. A union in which
woman may show herself help-meet in
deed. and thus more nearly approach
the Creators bene6centyplan.

tinction between the salvation OF men
and Of women. Bishop Newman says
He gave to Q woman the key note Of
His whole philosophy when He said to
the woman taken in adultery Neither
do condemn thee. Go. and sin no
more"
Paul, who is always quoted as auth
ority on wives and husbands. expressly
disclaims authority from God on this
subject, saying he speaks from his judg-
ment and not from God. And even
Paul. after saying that man is for the
glory Of God and woman for the glory
Of man. says Nevertheless, neither is
the man without the woman neither
the woman without the man in the
Lord"
Rational rules OF Interpretation make
all the difference in the world. II the
Bible teaches anything on the subject,
which doubt, it teaches the absolute
parity OF men and women as children
OF God" As for dangerous pre-
sumption" 7. E. WING.
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1895-09-28

Ny impression has always been that
the Bible teaches the subordination Of
woman to man. Upon reading it with
especial reference to it's treatment of
the woman question find that the
1sraelitish nomads, the Egyptians and
the Jerusalem Jews treated her and
wrote OF her as companion. The
Egyptian deities we're male and female.
But Isis was most prayed to and talked
about.
In the New Testament st. Paul
teaches the subsection OF women. He
admits that he does not know much
about the subject and does not speak
from inspiration, but from his own per.
sonal opinion. st. Paul had a great
command Of language and he wished
his opinion on oil important subjects of
the day to go on record. He says,
speaking Of marriage. But speak this
by permission and not by command.
ment." And "Now concerning virgins
l have no commandment of the Lord;
yet l give my Judgment as one that
hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be
faithful" st. Paul says that woman
should be subject to man because she
was created after man. The Lord
began by creating the simplest forms Of
life and proceeded to the most complex
BY successive stages. II he reversed his
procedure when he made man and
created the highest type first il is Paul's
place to prove it. The seventh chapter
