Women and Religious Work.

The Protestant deaeonosH institutions in Germany have paved the way for m independent position and suitable work for unmarried women. The black dress with the white cape gives her safe en- try into all houses, and WIG cannot but regret that the number of ladies is not larger who sock this useful occupation. But it has also given 2 general impulse to tho work of women in all tho branches of home missions.
 This brings us to another point--the position of women in religious work. Women pastors and preachers are reeog- nized in America as an order already existing. In Germany we are only in the beginning, but this beginning is made. The speaking of women in public was formerly rendered quite impossible. At first it was allowed in smaller circles of women. Now lady, Mrs Guauok, who is one of the German representa- tives of the rights of women, was re. quested to give an address at the eyan gelioal social congress at Erfurt last year, and she met with universal ap- plause. We begin to hear now that women may mako public addresses without losing that true delicacy which we should not care to miss. In our prayer meetings women begin to take an active part. We even find that these meetings only become more lively and interesting when women join in the exercises. Count Bernstorff in Exam iner.

TIE State Legislature on last Tuesday afternoon passed the Ar, kansas compromise settlement bill over Gov. Jones veto by the voto of 55, ito 41-4 more than the con stitution requires. This was a splendid indorsemement of the Ar kansas delegation in Congress and a very material setback for Gov. Dan Jones and ex Governor Clarke. This was the most distinguished service the Legislature rendered the people during their late session, and squares an old debt of about $2, 763, ,000 with $160, GOO.

SUFFERING BN sga EMcg,

Women are tiie real heroes of the world. Thousands on thousands of them endure the dragging torture of the ills peculiar to womankind in the silence of home. They suffer on and on-weeks, months, years. The story of weakness and torture is written in tie drawn features, in tie sallow skin, i'll the list less eyes, i'll the lines of care and worry on the face.
 Inborn modesty seals their lips. They prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has made them believe the only hope of relief lies in the exposure of exarnina- ton and s1ocal treatment '
 Take ten cases of "female weakness'' and in nine of them "ioca1 treatment'' is unnecessary, There is no reason why modest, sensitive women should sub init to 1t. rgcEE
