There is an exasperatirg tendency in
some feminine natures to idealizs some
things that from their very nature we
would expect to be more repugnant to
women. For instance, the sickly sen.
timentality that will lionize man rest
ing under the ban Of some criminal
charge. We had evidence of this incon-
sistency last week, when Brigham Rob
erts made his defense in the halls of
congress. He was expelled from his
seat simply because he had openly de-
fed and violated moral and statutory
laws. And the universal protest which
had gone up from every corner of orr
fair land. was protest in behalf Of the
sacredness Of the marriage rite, in be-
half OF the sanctity Of the home, in be-
half Of all women. Yet when this Of
fender against public decency was per-
mitted the privilege Of the floor to speak
in his own behalf, the great crowd in
the galleries was largely composed of
women. What was his plea !? Not a
denial that he had broken the laws of
the land, not denial of his polygamous
life. but an eloquent, sophistical argu.
ment seeking to excuse it. Who were
his sympathetic hearers? Were thew
his fellow congressman, who were al
most unanimously opposed to his being
seated among them? His eloquence

The successful elimination OF the
unrelenting efforts OF the club, business
and society women Of Denver for the
past year resulted in house warming
rendered to the public by the lunch

with great interest, ard heartily rejoice
in it's success. The three rooms pre-
eented an appearance Of practical utility.

which characterize home. The rest

chairs, a writing desk, pretty pictures
and other articles that particularly be-

club woman seems to feel that she ie
personally and morally responsible for
the whole amount of money to be sent
out of the community. How can we
convince each club that Withdrawing
from the general federation is retro
grade movement; that 1t thereby not
only loses the broadening and uplifting
energy which comes from affiliatiou
with the larger body, but that it may
thus withhold the very good which
it can and should give to others

The duty of giving is quite as imper-
alive and beneficial as that Of receiving.
The biennials have come to stand for a
great event in the club woman's life /; an
event which each member in turn may
hope to enjoy This hope alone awakens
aspirations and encourages legitimate
ambitions, inspiring in themselves,
though the hope be never realized. 1t
is better to have hoped and lost than
never to have hoped. Next, the dele.
gate that goes is lifted into higher
realms of thought and action. These
are the delights of travelling with con-
genial companions the relief from the
daily monotony of home life /; the forma-
ton OF new friendships; the toning
down Of prejudices, and the Awakening
OF that sympathy With and for others
which only comes from personal &C.
quaintance. Club womsn need the in
SEPARATION which comes from these ma
tional meetings. Their families are bene-
flied by them. The world is better for
them. do not believe there is club
woman in Nebraska that begrudges the
ten cents that CRADLES club sisters to at
tend the biennial meeting next June at
Milwaukee. Encouragement enthusiasm
and inspiration are always to be found
in great gathering OF those who think
alike and are working for the same OBJ
jects. These are the Influences that
make the workers strong and true and
the world stronger and better.
