COLLEGE GIRLS TOO TIRED.

Does a college education tend to-
ward the decadence of the collegiate S
religious interest? is the question
now being asked by the authorities
If Wellesley College. e.
For a long time it has been re-
marked that, while the girl student
.ook an interest in almost everything
else, and was a success at all sorts
If athletics, theatricalS and other
such diversions from the prescribed
course of study, she was merely luke
warm as to religion. She could man
age to pass her examinations, and
even with honors. Nothing was too
abstruse to battle her in that, and in
rowing, basketball, golf and tennis
she ever was an enthusiast. But
when it came to attending chapel,
she did not even get up make be-
ieye" interest to help herself along
N the stern path of duty.
She simply funked.
1t didn't need statistics to show
he college its backsliding. But when
Miss Sue Barrow, president of the
senior class, had them compiled and

IF the 1871 girls in the college, it
Las been found that only 206 have
been attending services in Houghton
Memorial Chapel. The senior class
Of 225 members has sent only sixty;
the junior class, numbering 295, only

freshmen contributed thirty-nine.

that duty every morning, no matter

ana during pollt1cal contest II seems
utterly out of the question to interest
the ordinary man In anything else
than political discussion. Women
have few societies, and, thank
Heaven, they have no part in politics
Men are more enamored Of certain
forms of overt sin than women, and
the devil, through these forms Of sin,
is winning many men away from all
the influences Of the church of Christ
Gambling and drunkenness are the
sins of men, and while some women
also fall into these two classes of sin,
they are the exception rather than
the rule. In many of our American
cities we have one legalized place for
the sale Of liquor to every fifty Of our
men, and we cannot tell, nor do the
authorities seem to care, how many
gambling places there are in our fair
city. But all of these places live
largely upon the patronage of men.
Now, Is it strange that we have so
few men comparatively in our
churches? Men are far more In the
clutches of overt sin than women,
and that fact must be reckoned with
when you count up the men in the
churches. God pity the great host of
men in our city who have sold them
selves body and soul to the devil, and
who have no care about righteousness
here nor felicity hereafter.
Society places a premium upon the
righteousness, If not upon the posi-
tive unrightousness, of men by per-
hitting the double standard of NOR
ais. Men do with impunity what a
woman could not do at all If she de-
sired to remain respectable in the es
timation of her family and friends.
Now, so long as society, composed in
part of Christian people, permits men
to be libertines and drunkards, and
does not make them smart for their
sins, these same men will have but
little regard for religion. How can
we expect the libertine to have any
respect for religion when he is made
the welcome guest in the house
where, if the people lived up to their
religion, he would be loathed?
How can we expect sinful men to
come into the church and give up
their sins, when the men and women
with whom they associate do not dis
count them in the least because of the
lives that they lead? How different
with women. They must be pure to
be respectable; they must not fall
once into the sin In which their nus
bands and brothers riot, for if they
do they will be scourged out of soci-
ETY.. ] tell you men and women of
Brooklyn, the social order in which
we live puts premium upon the vice
of men. We are responsible to the
extent of our influence. 1 plead with
the fathers and mothers to protect
their daughters. Be as willing that
your son should marry a fallen woman
as that your daughter should marry
a fallen man. 1 plead with the Chris
tan men before me to refuse their in
innate friendship to impure men, and
under no circumstances to allow i'm
pure men the privilege of social equal
ity in your homes. Not until Chris
tan men take some such stand will
the men of our generation realize the
enormity of social sin.

Dignity OF Authorship.

One of the ADLER modern writer's
made this confession the other day:
q am so devoted to my wife that l
allow her to break in upon me when
ever she pleases. Naturally, she cuts
into my line of thought and often
destroys the continuity of genius.
The only way for me to do good
days work is to quarrel with her
to make her so angry that she will
cry, fuss, break few dishes, smash
a kitten, scald a puppy of two, then
go to her room and stay there. BY
the time l have done a days work
she is in excellent humor and tired
of being alone. Then we make up.

Guarding Bank OF France.

Like the Bank of England, the
Bank of France is now guarded every
night by soldiers. But within quite
recent time the officials at the French
bank resorted to a very novel method
of protecting their bullion.
This consisted in engaging masons
to wall up the doors of the vaults
in the cellar with hydraulic mortar
as soon as the money was deposited
each day in these receptacles. The
water was then turned on and kept
running until the whole cellar was
flooded A burglar would be obliged
to work in a diving suit and break
down a cement wall before he could
even begin to plumber the vaults.
When the bank official arrived
next morning the water was drawn
off, the masonry torn down and the
vaults opened.-Strand Magazine.

STRUGGLE FOR EQUALITY.


The women of Concord, N. H., are
struggling to have the word male
omitted from the new city charter
that Mayor Charles R. earning has
recently appointed comm ission to
draft. 1t is asserted that the present
charter of Concord is one of the most
antiquated in America. 1t is copy
of Boston's original charter, and
among its provisions are minute di-
rections to the chief of police as
signing him all sorts of puritanical
duties. Witches are warned to re-
train from their sinful practices and
tradesmen against selling rum to In
dians The women now say that to
prohibit them from voting at this ad-
vanced state of the world is just as
antiquated and as irrational as the
provisions relating to witches.

To Live We Must Grow.

Are there not some of us who have
been trying a good while to get back
an old experience? If we succeeded
we should only be where we were,
and If we are only going to get
where we were we have abandoned
the law of progress and begun the
downward retrogression.
God has Himself withered, by His
own consuming breath, the flower and
fragrance of your former joys, that
He may lead you into something bet
ter. Let your old experience go and
take the living, everlasting Christ in
stead.
What thing thou lowest most, thou
mak'st it's nature thine;
Earthly, if that be earth-if that be

A Red-Eyed Chicken.

Mr.. George Ladenburger has
sure-enough curiosity in the posses
sion of a red-eyed chicken.
1t is not the eyelids that are red,
as might be inferred, but the eyes
themselves. The eyeballs are not
bloodshot or inf1amed, but are of bril-
liant crystal red, while the sights
are also red, but of a darker hue.
So transparent are the eyes that
when the head of the chicken is held
between your vision and the sun, it
appears as if the sun were shining
through from one eye to the other
and the head lighted up inside. The
chick is healthy and lively, and can
see as perfectly as any in the brood.
