FORTUNES IN OLD TUBS.

IS WOMAN SPIRITUAL?

Another of mans cherished ideals is knocked in t'o head And by preacher too. The Rev. Charles Stelzic of the Federal Council of Churches Christ in America foresees a time when men will predominate in thc churches and missionary work will be to brin the fair sex back into the fold Why? Because wome7 are sufficiently religious.
 Contrary to the accepted theory, says the Rev Nil Stelzle, women not spiritual than men, The reason why there are twice many women men in the churches today because women have not had so many outside agencies through which to work as men have had. Now that there clubs, charity organiz tons and the suffrage movement for women, and th- proportion of women is falling on"
 We'll we've been told in these latter, topsyturvy day that women are better logicans and better mechanic than men, We've been told that women less modes than men, It may be- too that less spiritual than men, But how the old standards crumbng!
 Lafcadio Hearn used to tell his classes in the Uni versity of Toko that Tn America is god" Brt if Mir Stezle is right and the present tendency cor tinues. there may be end to wOman-worshp ir America. How can man woman highly if i once dawns on him that he is the spiritual of tn two?
 And if you ask a woman that question: it will be jus like her to retort
