Wnrnan1s Club.

On Tuesday afternoon the Woman
club held an open meeting, at when
friends of the members were enter
tanned An address on Human Sacri-
fees" was delivered by Rev. p. :.
Thacher and was listened to with the
keene~t interest by those present. Tea
was dispensed at the close Of the pro
gramme.
Dir. Thacher spoke warmly for the
higher education of women and for
recognition Of her equal rights with
man in labor, politics or society. After
showing how women are sacrificed in
regard TO education, conventional pru-
DEFY, prejudice and pride. Mr.. Thach-
er said "A woman's moral conscious
ness is often blurred and the difference
between vice and virtue reduced TO a
vanishing point by Irritation. Love IS
too sacred a thing thus to be trided
with. Tt is rubbing off the bloom from
q fair, sweet flower, ard once rubbed
off it will not be restored in after
years Flirts become cOnjugal bank
Tupts.
Women are sacrificed by being re-
garded as mere ornaments and instru-
ments of pleasure to amuse the lord Of
creation. An indiscriminate love Of ad-
miratiOn is fostered which enamels the
sensitive and receptive faculties and
frivolous emplOyments have indurated
or Slapped the nature. Is it strange that
women who have some conception of
the dignity of their own being should
resent this2 Is enhancement her
true policy, bearing. brOoking, endur-
ing all things2 Is acknowledgment the
peculiar privilege of man. What
chivalrous man viii say SO? Has wO-
man not the common rights Of human

feel 1t, resent it? IF a woman yield to
mans temptations cannot she be for
given, not only to go to heaven but to
be good for something on the earth
Men are forgiven for lapses from viT-
tue and shall we say woman cannot be .
Strange is it not. that women them
selves are most D. one to say so. They

only too ready 10 thrust their sisters

THAT which is true reverence foI

It Will Be the Standard.

Philadelphia, Pa.-Miss NJ Carey
Thomas. president of Bryn Mawr col
lege. in her address to the students in
opening the collegiate year today, said
she believed that the English spoken
by the people of this country would be
the standard for English-speaking peo-
pie in the world. She said
In travelling in England this sum-
mer, when / reached the counties of
Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, I was as
tonished to find that the people on the
streets and in the hotels spoke both IN
accentuation and pronunciation like
Americans. When I read my guide book
I found that many of the well-known
settlers Of Pennsylvania and the mid
die states had come from just these
counties. The greatest number of the
English speaking race today are Amer
leans. and it is our duty and your duty
as college women to uphold the stan
dard of English speech and to speak
good, pure, simple English In all
probability in the future the English
spoken by Americans will come to be,
simply on account of our greater num-
bers. the standard Of English through
out the world We must see to it that
in our mouths it loses nothing of its
wonderful beauty"
