Honor Due to the Shakers.

of wonderful mentality. woman in
many respects two centuries in ad-
vance of her time, a woman whose
primal intuitions or whose spiritual
illumination, for she was absolutely
unlettered, placed her far ahead Of
later reform leaders. was the first
in western lands to receive the
thought of divine motherhood, CO.
existent and cooperative with the d.
vine fatherhOod in God. The logical
outcome of this truth she unhesitat-
ingly promulgated. In the moral and
intellectual development Of her peo-
pie, woman's equality was insisted
upon. Yet, 1t was the equality of
the true helpmeet, as embodied in the
Mosaic legend
