The pioneer mother, although surrounded by and struggling wit terrible dangers and hardships, nevertheless as « mother had mere power in her hands and could better control the beslth, the morals and the general welfare of her children than the modern mother in great city. Power after power has slipped out of the mothers’ hands —the four walls of the home can no longer compass a woman's sphere, her responsibilities or her power. The true mothers to-day must follow their children beyond the walls of the home into every avenue of life, and the true mother’s hand should be strong to grasp firm and sure upon all those conditions | which surround her child in the community. It is not enough fon | the mother to prepare her children for the world—she must prepare the world for her children and for the children of others.

By Miss Jeannette L. Gilder. | YN politics I do not think that women have any place. The life is | too public, too wearing and too unfitted to the nature of women. It is bad enough for men—so bad that some of the best of them keep out of it; and it would be worse for women. Many of the women who are enthusiastic in the cause of suffrage seem to think that if they are once given thé power to vote, every vexed question will be settled, every wrong righted. By dropping their ballots in the box they believe that they can set in motion the machinery of an earthly paradise. I wish I could think so. It is my opinion that it would let loose the wheels of purgatory. If the ballot were the end, that would be one thing, but it {s only the beginning. If women vote they must hold office, they must attend primaries, they must sit on juries. We shall have women “heelers” and women “bosses;” there will be the “girls” of the Fourth Ward (when it comes to New York) as well as the “boys.” I do not think that to be a good housewife should be the end and aim of every woman’s ambition, but I do think that it should be some part of it, for 1 am old-fashioned enough to be a pious believer in the influence of a mother’s wining upon her children. Read the life of any great man and you will see now much of his greatness he owed to his mother. It seems to me that it is a tigger feather ino woman’s cap—a brighter jewel in her crown—to be the mother af a George Washington than to be a member of Congress from the Thirty-second District.
