CAN WORK WONDERS
MAGIC IN THE INFLUENCE or A
GOOD WOMAN.
History Full Of Instances OF Men
Plucked from the Lowest Depths
to a High Calling in the Work
of the World.

The woman who talks most about
a wumans influence generally doesn't
have any Influence The kind that
counts work silently II Is not her-
aided with trumpets nor elapped Win
| applause.
For this reason a woman is little
shy of even considering such subject
as her influence over men, so TAI
from Boosting of ii even in her
thoughts she viii barely acknowledge
1t to herself.
That is all right. Just the way
nice, modest woman should feel about
it. Nevertheless, there can be no
harm in asserting the fact--just
among women, though-that woman
can influence man very potently, II
She goes about it in the right way.
For the right woman man will do
almost anything, He has been doing
it for centuries. long before the time
when solomon fell 70 worshiping the
gods OF his wives, and when Herod
sacrificed John the Baptist to his pref
ty niece. He has been known to climb
from the lowest depths To high CALI
ing under a woman's influence, and
he has been dashed from high places
to the darkest depths by reason OF
that same mysterious magic says
writer in the Minneapolis journal
1t must please any woman TO hear
the story Of Owen Kildare, New
York Bowery tough. who at 30 could
neither read nor write and was proud
of his slum reputation as the toughest
of sluggers. Now, at little past 40,
he is writing for magazines and work
ing to better the condition Of just such
people as those from whose ranks he
was lifted
And how was he lifted? A WON.
ans voice called him.
A woman came into his life Of utet
degradation She gave the best sAo
could 10 aid him She led he fol.
lowed For years he Wa5 pupil ana
she was teacher And then she died,
aud II was then that her Influence
was most powerful Realizing what
she had done for him, he set himsel,
to follow the wlndlngs of the path She
had outlined. The path led To reform,
manliness, strength and usefulness.
Only ten years between his ignor'
ant, dissipated life and the bright.
promising life of an author and phi,
lanthropical worker Scoif as the ua-
sentimental may, all this was accom-
plished by a noble womans influence.
Ii ought to make a woman mighty
proud ana at the same time mighty
humble. 10 have a responsibility like
that in her hands. Her words. her
giances. her smiles, her actions her
beauty, her whole character can work
either for a mans help or for his
harm.
She needn't speak of it, nor think
much about It. Yet, silently, and IN "a
large, sweet, wholesome way, she can
have a care which way her Influence
is working.
