Rev. Frank De W. Talmage. who
at one time thumped the plush in
the Bushkill Church in this county,
and was on such familiar terms with
Old Testament characters that he
spoke of the man Moses who tended
his Midianitish herds four Thousand
years ago on the hills of Sinai and
who Cirlyle says wrote the Bible, as
Nose, last Sunday in his pulpit in
Philadelphia criticised women suf-
frage. He said women who wanted
the ballot were monstroseties, over
dressed, bediamonded ballot pleading
females. He at least was successful
in calling the attention of a number
of prominent ladies in that city to
his deliverance and some of them
have gone back at him In a way
which must make him proud.
They characterize him as amusing,
having an excited imagination.
speaking without facts, and showing
great ignorance. Evidently his
clerical chaste and Christian dis
course had weight, whether it ap
pealed to his congregation or not. A
dienified and measured discussion Of
the great question might be edifyine
from the pulpit, if it gave equal
prominence TO the reasons for and
against and ended with or without
Q deduction from the facts allowing
each hearer to form his own opinion.
But when pulpit orator arrays
himself against a popular question
and uses adjcctives or ridicule as ar
gument he gets to the level of the
Cambridge friar who denounced the
reading of the Bible by the vulgar ;
for the baker, he said, who found it
written that a little leaven would
corrupt the whole lump, would gi, e
us bad bread, and the plowman
would be afraid to labor, when he
learned that if he looked back from
his plow he was unfit for the king
dom of heaven. Such logic would
be as forcible as DR.. Franks argu-
ment against woman suffrage when
he points 1t with half clothed bill.

In a paper on The Duties of Mis-
tresses and Servants" read at a recent
meeting of the Irish WOmen's Suffrage
association in Dublin, Miss Bellingham
Todd contended that domestic service
more nearly approached n mild form
of slavery than any other occupation.
The conditions under which a serv-
ant lived did not compare favorably
with the environment of the salesgirl
or clerk. One was called "a mental"
and the other "a young lady" One
never knew when her work was done.
while the other had stated hours.
Mistresses. said Miss Todd, ignored the
revolution which had taken place and
treated servants as still being of an
ignorant lower class when they should
be put on the same footing as business
girls.
Miss Todd was of the opinion that
servants should be given the use of a
piano and could not see what objection
there was to servant having a bicy-
Gle or even the automobile placed at
her disposal whenever she had an
