Wives and Mothers.

| cannot close this paper without II
reference TO the unjust laws relating TO
wives aud mothers, which disgrace the
statute books of most of the states, and
which should lie annuled Only a very
small proportion of the states of the
American federation allow the mar
ried father and mother TO be equal
legal owners and controllers of their
minor children. Their legal ownership
resides in he father in most states, and
he mother who bore them ant won
them at the risk of her life in the valley
Of death, is denied Il share in them.
The laws of many states not only give
to the father the minor children, but
the egal ownership of the wife's person
and earnings, which practically reduces
her To slavery. To the husband is
Civ, the right of choosing the dOmicile
for the family, regardless OF the wishes
of the wife. 1t the husband dies inter
state. the law divides his property
among his heirs, and very often in such
a way as 10 cause great hardships to
the wife. These unjust statutes are an
inheritance from long gone past, and
were not formulated hy tho legisla ors
of The present. The majority of Amer
lean husbands and fal theirs are better
than these laws and never enforce them,
and many are entirely ignorant of their
existence. Still, their influence is felt
IN the community, and their practical
results are always disastrous to the
home and family, when interpret ed by
men who lack an ideal prehension
Of the worth and glory of motherhood
and home.
The time is coming when an exalted
conception of motherhood will prevail,
as the most important and sacred of ell
the functions given TO woman. En-
llghtened motherhood will be compile
mented by enighten ID fatherhood, and
science will come To their aid with III
that il has learned concerning prenatal
beirg. Invention will have simplilied
household as i, has agricultural lbOr,
or cooperation will have extended TO
housekeeping as it has To business, and
the home will then become a sanctuary
for the Young child, whose surround
ings Will be ideal, and who can h,
trained and nodded Alright from the
cradle. Then will "the statelier Eden
come again to man." Then will human
fatherhood and human motherhood
take on something of the fulness, ten
derness and divineness of Godhood
And then will the children born into
the home have trooping about them
such divinities as were never, never
throned on old Olympus.-M A.

Monthly for December

Governor Mount has come to be
regarded as something of a prophet
in regard to prices and he seems to
have earned the title. Five years
ago, when cattle and sheep were a
drug on the market, he predicted
that in less than five years that kind
of stock would be bringing good
prices and that farmers who were
then disposing of their herds and
fiocks at a sacrifice would be buying
at high prices to stock their farms.

Prayers of thanksgiving are of.
fered by the families of many foot
ball players that their dear ones
came out of Thursdays combats

felt SO thankful over the escape of
his son from the Yale Princeton
game with life and limb intact, that
he gave great dinner to all the
members of the church to which he
belonged.
