said: ..See there! that comes from
dove marrying vulture to reform
him."
Many a woman who has had the hand
of young inebriate offered, but de-
clined 1t, or who was asked to cham
her life to a man selfish. or Of bad tenn
per. and refsed the shackles, will bless
God throughout all eternity that she
escaped that earthly pandemonium.
Besides all this, IN our country about
I, OOO 900 men were sacrificed In our
civil war, and that decreed 1000, 600
women to celibacy. Besides that, since
the war, several armies of men as
large as the federal and confederate
armies put together, have fallen under
malt liquors and distilled spirits, SO
full of poisoned ingredients That the
work was done more rapidly, and the
victims died while yet young. And II
So COO men are destroyed every year by
strong drink before marriage, that
makes in the 33 years since the war
1850 900 men slain, and DEGREES 1885,
600 women to celibacy. Take, then,
the fact that SO many women are I'M
happy in their marriage, and the fact
that the slaughter of 250o, 900 men,
by warand rum com bined, decides that
a
unbalanced for life, my text comes in
with cheer and a potency and appro-
priateness that you may never have
seen ia it before when it says: every
wise woman buildeth her house," that
Is, let woman be her own architect, lay
out her own plans, be her own super
visor, achieve her own destiny.
In addressing those women who
have to fight the battle alone, l con-
graduate you ON your happy escape.
Rejoice forever that you will not have
to navigate the faults of the other sex.
when you have faults enough of your
own. Think Of the bereavements you
avoid, of the risks of assimilated tenn
per which you will not have to run, OF
the cares you will never have to carry,
and of the opportunity of outside use
fulness from which marital life would
have partially debarred you, and that
you are free to 60 and come as one who
has the responsibilities of a household
can seldom be. God has not given
you q hard lot, as compared with your
sisters. When young women shall
make up their minds at the start that
masculine companionship is not me-
cessity in order to happiness, and that
there Is strong probability that they
will have to fight the battle of life
alone, they will be getting the timber
ready for their own fortune, and their
saw aud ak and plane sharpened for
Its construction, since Every wise
woman buildeth her home"
AS no boy ought to be brought up
without learning some business at
which he could earn livelihood, so no
girl ought to be brought up without
learning the science of self-support
The difficulty is that many q family
goes sailing on the high tides Of sue
cess, and the husband and father de-
ponds on his own health and acumen
for the welfare of his household, but
one day he gets his feet wet, and in
three days pneumonia has closed his
life and the daughters are turned out
on q cold world to earn bread, and
there is nothing practical that they
can do. The friends come In and hold
consultation. ''Give music lessons"

ticeship in commerce and who began
as shop boys at ten years of age. Some
kind-hearted dry goods man. having
known tho father. now gone. says:
1--WE are not in need of any more help
iust now but send your daughters TO
the store, and will do as we'll by them
as possible" Very soon the question
comes up, why do not the female en-
ployes of that esta blishment get a.
much wages as tho male employess
For the simple reason, in many cases,
the females were suddenly flung by
misfortune behind that counter, while
the males have from the day they left
the public school been learning the
business.
How is this evil to be cured? Start
clear back in the homestead and teach
your daughters that life is an earnest
thing, and that there is q possibility,
if not a strong probability, that they
will have to fight the battle of life
alone. Let every father and mother
say to their daughters: 'Now, what
would you do for livelihood if what
I now own were swept away by fnan-
cial disaster, or old age, or death should
end my careerP"
do such decorative work" Yes, that
is beautiful, and If you have genius for
it 90 on in that direction. But there
are enough busy at that now to make
q line of hardware as long as you Penn

"Well, could make recitations in
public and earn my living as drama
tist; I could render King Lear Or Mac
beth till your hair would rise on end,
or give you Sheridan's Ride or Dick
ems ''Pickwick." Yes, that Is q beau
tiful art, but ever and anon, rs now,
there is an epidemic of DEMONSTRATION
that makes hundreds of households
nervous with the cries and shrieks and
groans Of young trAYediennes dy-
ing in the fifth act. and the trodble is
that while your friends would like to
hear you. and really think that you
could surpass Ristori and Chorlotte
Cushman and Fanny Kemble of the
past, to say nothing of the present,
you could not, in the way OF living,
in ten years earn ten cents.
My advice to all girls and all unmar-
ried women, whether in afHuent homes
| or in homes where most stringent econ
| omies are grinding, is to learn to do
| some kind of work that the world must
have while the world stands. am
glad to see q marvellous change for tho
| better, and that women have found
out that there are hundreds of prac-
teal things that a woman can do for
| living If she begins soon enough, and
| that men have been compelled to ad-
NIT it. You and can remember when
the majority OF occupations were
thought inappropriate for women; but
our civil war came, and the hosts of
men went forth from north and south;
and to conduct the business of our
cities during the patriotic absence,
women were demanded by the tens Of
thousands to take the vacant places;
and multitudes of women, who had
hitherto been supported by fathers
and brothers and sons, were compelled
from that time to take care OF them
selves. From that time a mighty
change took place favorable to female
employment.
