and in the Visiter defended herself
against it. I replied, and in the dis
cussion which followed she argued that
the affairs Of each family should be so
arranged that the husband and wife
would be breadwinner and housekeeper
by turns, day or even half day about.
He should go to business in the fore
of baby and permit her to go to the
office, shop or warehouse from which
came the family supplies.
took the ground that baby would be
apt to object, and that in our family the
rule would not work, since I could not
put q log on the mill-carriage, and the
water would be running to waste all
my day or halliday as bread-winner
About the same time, Mrs. Stanton
published a series of articles in Mrs.
Boomers paper, the Lily, in which she
taught that it was right for a mother
to make baby comfortable, lay him in
his crib, come out lock the door, and
leave him to develop his lungs by cry
ing or cooling, as he might decide while
mamma improved her mind and attend
ed to her public and social duties.
Against such head winds, it was hard
for my poor little craft to make prog
ress in asserting the right of women
to influence great public questions.
For something over twenty years af-
ter that Akron meeting, I did not see a
woman's rights convention, and in all
have seen but five. Up to 1875 there
had been no material Improvement in
them, if those I saw were a fair speci-
men. Their holders have always SEEM
ed to me like a woman who should un-
dertake at a state fair to run a sewing
machine, under pretense Of advertising
it, while she had never spent an hour
in learning it's use.
However, those conventions have
probably saved the republic. From the

it is probable that in fit Of generosity
the men Of the United States would have
enfranchised it's women en- masse; and
the government now staggering under
the ballots of ignorant, irresponsible

additional burden of the votes which
would have been thrown upon it, by mill
lions Of ignorant, irresponsible women.
Before that time, the unanswerable ar
gument of Judge Hurlbut had been pub

on the minds of thinking men. Had
this been followed by the earnest thrill
