either in the so-called legitimate ave-
nues Of exploitation or those con-

Many leave the life after a short
time spent in it, and make good, but
those who remain for any length OF
time become abnormal. the habits of
life become fixed. and it is almost
impossible for them 10 change.
While not very many girls can
claim that they have been starved

an invarlable accompaniment. We
repudiate the statement that every
woman has her price. At the same

is not a point at which they will

Exploitation of Affection.

of a man of similar character could
be accepted. So far as 1 know. this
law has not been repealed.
The noble characteristics of wom-
anhood are used for her undoing.
Her desire to belong to some one. to
have some one to love and to lavish
her affection upon, this lovely trait
also is exploited. and even when she
must realize that she is but a means
of an easy life to him. she cannot
bear to give up her belief in the ONE

In carefully compiled records of his

In order that this article may be
free from personal application, l de-
sire to say that from my expert
ence in every large city of the
United States. as well as Europe.
the inmates of the segregated dis
trict in Washington are far above
the average.
Among them are women of char
acter and force that, had t not been
for some untoward circumstance of
life, would have filled honorable
places in society.
From the fact that their associa-
ton has been with a class of people
who magnify the ills of life, and
minimize its blessings, ane who i'm
press upon them the failings OF
human nature and the weaknesses
and inequalities of social order,
they have warped ideas of life.
Unfortunately their idols have feet

of those to whom they cling to i'm

the gutter, it loses none of its purity
or value AS soon as it is taken
from the mire and the accumulation
of dirt has been removed. il is as

Sacrifice of Womanhood.
I do not always sorrow at the
sacrifices of women. When I stood
in the chapel OF st. Ursula at CO.
logne. Germany. surrounded by the
skeletons of 1l,oeO virgins, who had
laid down their lives, rather than
yield their virtue to vandal host.
my heart throbbed with pride that
I was a woman.
Even when l realized how much
sweetness and goodness had gone
out of life when these sainted ones
were sacrificed, ] felt that not
drop of their blood had been shed in
vain. AS long as there was eft one
woman in the world she would be
strengthened in all her highest aspi-
rations because of the lesson they
had taught.

To this union were born four

number died in infancy. Near
the close of the Civil war her
husband enlisted in the military
service of his country for the
suppression of the rebellion, dur
ing which time she performed
the duties of head of the family,
| and faithful mother, and cared
| for and kept the family during
| this absence during this eventful
period in the history of our coun-
try. Following the death of her
mother she and her family moved
to the old homestead farm, and
cared for her father during his
declining years for a period ot
TWO years With little exception
she and her husband made theil
home in this county. About sew
enteen years ago they left thei
small farm, east from the Crom
