therefore, say, and my story in Hear5ts
Magazine was intended to say, that in tho

asks of her she should be entitled to ask of

to be counted for sin in him; and that even

My novel was also intended to say that where
constTaint has been put upon a woman to
marry, no matter whether 1t is parental con-
straint or any other, where she has been infiu-
enced, persuaded, controlled and dominated,
so that her free will has not been exercised.

celebrated It, is no marriage in the eyes of God.

always take this view, and anybody Is at
liberty to bring up my own words against me
who remembers and cares to get them.
If such, then, is the position of woman in
relation to her father and her husband, accord
ing to the morality accepted by civilized society,
what is her position in relation to her child?
! think 1t is a perfectly shocking position and
an almost unaccountable one. We have to go
back to elemental matters in order to see in
all its enormity the position of the mother in
the world 1t is possible to talk much about
things that we cease to know anything about
them, and the world has talked SO long about
motherhood that 1t appears to have lost the
sense of what 1t means. 1t seems impossible
to say anything about motherhood and the
mother without talking commonpaces; yet the
truth behind both is Just strange to the

1t is the other man (the woman's husband)
whose injury he is thinking of when he dooms
the unfaithful man to death. According to
Moses a married man may even force an un-
married woman If he pays fine to her father,
and then relieves the father of his unmarriage-
able daughter whether she desires the man or
not
Then look at the Mosaic law Of divorce We
are told that when man has taken wife and
married her. and then discovers he does not
like her, because he hath found some unclean-
ness in her" he is to write bill of divorce
ment and put II into her hand and send her
out Of his house. Think Of It! No hint Of any
right on the part of the wife to walk out Of
the house If she finds any uncleanness in her
husband, any drunkenness or inhdelity that
makes him disgusting to her,
This, too, in my view, is shocking. But has
the modern world made much progress toward
a better recognition of the right of woman
in herself, not to speak of her right in her
husband, in exchange for whom she (by the
laws Of natural marriage) has given herself?
Not one step, so far as ! can see.
Nor can religion claim to have taken a
much higher view. Never SO far as l know,
in any age or country has it established mar
riage on a foundation of absolute equality be-
tween man and woman. | look in vain through
the marriage services of the churches, for any
clear statement that everything that is required
OF the woman is equally required of the man.
The service of the Catholic Church, which de-
mands that the woman shall keep true faith
unto her husband" makes no such call upon the
man, only requiring that he should worship the
woman with his body and endow her with his
worldly goods. And the service OF the Anglican
Church, which requires obedience and submits
sion from the wife, makes no answering claim
for CORRESPONDING concessions of liberty on the
part of the husband.
According to both these churches 1t is the
duty OF woman to be chaste, to be constant.
to be amiable to her husband like Rachel. wise
like Rebecca, and faithful like Sarah but,
far as l can see, 1t is required by neither of
them, nor yet by any of the other churches
(unless It is the Comtist Church, for Comte
was perhaps, the greatest modern apostle of
monogamy) that man shall also In the same
absolute sense be chaste, constant and faithful;
that in marriage he shall give himself to the

in consequence Of the sad fact that he no
longer works himself, to spend the creator
part Of his energy in elaborate devices for
keeping health and killing time. Those de-
vices he does not like to think foolish. What

with his time If they became unnecessary?
No, no. Bid him preach. and he will preach
but practice. Practice is not possible.
There we have the great obstruction to the
spread of this fresh-air discipline. It is far
too practical and too simple and too univer-
sal in its application. Every man should take
a pride in his body; every man can and ought
to practice this discipline. Yet the man in
authority the middle-aged man, who is in the
best position to realize its virtues and spread
them through the community. cannot use his
influence because the first step. too obvious
for anyone to miss, is that he should practice
Il himself. And that is very hard for him to
do.
But let US for q moment suppose that there
was room IN his life for energy; that he
tackled and overcame the difficulty of start
ing new, good habit: that he had not lost
the knack of practice in gaining the knack Of
precept; that he still had power over himself
well as authority over others-what might
not such a man effect in spreading the great
idea and how simply might he not effect It?
