A Swedish boy fell out of a window nd was picked up severely hurt, but with tightened lips, he kept back I he cry of pain. King Gustavus Adolphus, who saw the accident, prophesied that tho boy who hud such Holf control would make a man for emergencies. He was right, for tho lad becume the famous General Huuer. An Italian woinun fell into a dock and would have been drowned but for the courage of ft boy who sprang in after her and managed to keep her atioat till a boat camo to the rescue, i The spoctutors admired tho boy's \ nrnmnt.tmn? ami kimlnnun nf timirt i imt commented on hi? recklessness, which, thoy said, might have cost -hii^Uin life. , This Tr niJMS ^"Hbaldi, and in considering* life one^flnds that these were his cuaracteri*ti?^ all through.

Subject: Ttie Needle's Havoc?An Appr?l For Mercy For Oppressed Womanhood ?I.et Her Have an Kquat Chance With Man in the Struggle of Life. (Copyright lsoo.1 Washinoton, D. C.?Tills discourse oT Dr. Tulmago is nn appeal (or mercy In behalf of oppressed womanhood and o/Ters encouragement to those struggling for a livelihood; text, Eccleslastes, iv., 1, "Behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter." Very long ago the needle was busy. It was considered honorable for women to toll In olden times. Alexander the Oroat stood in his palace showing garments made by his o vn mother. The llnest tapes*.rles at Bnyeux was made bv the queen of Willlain the Conqueror. Augustus, tho e:n peror, would not wear any garments oxcopt those that worn fashioned by some member of Ids royul family. So let tlio toller everywhere bo respected. The needle has slain more than tho eword. When the sewing machine was invented, some thought that invention would nlleviato woman's toll an 1 put uu end to the despotism of the noodle. Cut no. While tho sowing machine has boon a great blessing to well-to-do families in many cases It has added to the stab of tho noedio the crush of the wheel, and multitudes of women, notwithstanding tho ro-enforoement of tho sowing machine, can onlv make, work linrd as they will, between -tU and ?3 a week. The greatest blessing that could have happened to our llrst parents was being turned out of Cdeu after they hnd done wrong. Adam and Eve, in tholr perfect state, might have got along without work or only such slight omploymont as a perfect garden with no weeds in It demanded, liut as soon as they had sinned tho bast thing for them was to be turned out where they would have to work. Wo know what r. withering thing It Is for a man to have I nothing to do. Of tho thousand prosperous and honorable men that you know 0D9 bad to work vigorously at tho beginning. Dut 1 am now to t? !I you that iudustry Is just as important for a woman's safety and 1 happiness. The most unhappy women In our communities to-duv are tlioso who have no eugugemeuts to call them up in the morning; who, once having risen and breakfasted, lounge through the dull forenoon iu slippers down at tho heel and with disheveled liair, reading the lust novel, and wiio, having drugged through a wretched forenoon and taken their afternoon sleep and having passed an hour and a half at their toilet, plek up their card ...... K" "?V I" iuiiko runs, ana WHO puss their evenings waiting for somebody to come in nmi break up the monotony. Arabella Stuart never was imprisoned in go dark a dungeon us that. There Is no happiness in nn idle woman. It may be with hand. It may bo with brain. It may be with foot, but work she must or bo wretched forever. Tho littlo girls oT onr lutnilies must bo started with that idea. Tho curse of American society Is that our young women are taught that the first, second, v-lrd, fourth, llfth, sixth, seventh, tenth, tWtleth, thousandth thing in their life Is to get somebody to take care of tlftnu. Instead of that tho first lesson should bo bow under God they may take care of themselves. Tho simple fact Is that a majority of them do have to take caroof themselves, and that, too, after having through tho false notions of their parents wasted the years in which they ought to have learned how successfully to maintain themselves. Wo now and here declare tho Inhumanity, cruelty nnd outrage of that father and mother who pass their daughters into womanhood, having given them no faculty for eurniug tit ir livelihood. Mmo. de Stncl said, "It is not these writings that I am prouil of, but the lact that I have facility in ton occupations, in nuy one of which I could nutko a livelihood." You say you have a fortune to leavo them. Oh, man nnd woman, have vnn I,,,.-....! in i. ,..... ........... ...it., mm vuiiiiri'i, imn hawks, like eagles, riehes have wings and 11 y away? Though you should bo successful In leaving ? competency behind yon, tbo trickery ol executors muy swamp It in a night or some official iu our churches may get up n mining company and Induce your orphans to put their money into n ho'.oin Colorado nnd It by tho most skillful machinery the sunken money cannot he { brought up ngnln prove to them that It wns eternally decreed that that was the way they were to lose it ami that M went In the most orthodox nud heavenly stylo. Oh, the damnable schemes that professed Christians will engage In until Ood puts Ills flngars into the collar of the hypocrite's robe nnd strips it clenr down to the bottom! You have no right, because you are well off, to conclude that your children nre going to be well off. A man died leaving n largo fortune. His son fell dend in a Pliilndolphlti grogshop. His old comrades enmo In and sntd r.s they bent over his corpse, "What is the matter will) you, lioggsy?" The surgeon standing over hlin said: "Hush yol He Is dead!" "Oh, he is dead!" they said. "Come, hoys; let us go nnd take a drink in memory of poor lloggsyl" Have you nothing better than money to leave your children? If you have uvi, uui nruu yuur llllllg IllCTS llllO lite world wltii empty brain and unskilled liund, you nro guilty of assassination, homicide, infanticide. There lira woman toiling in our cities for 92 or 6:1 n wank who woro tlia daughters of merchant princes. These suffering ones now would bo glad to lmvo tho crumbs tlmt ouco fell from their father's table. That worn out broken shoe that aim wears is the lineal descendant of tho 612 gaiter iu Which iter mother walked and that torn and faded calico bad ancestury of tnuguiMcent brocade that swept Pennsylvania avenue and llroadway c can without any expense to the street commissioners. Though you live iu an elegant residence and fare sumptuously everyday, let your daughters feel it Is a disgrace for them not to know how to work. I denounce the idea prevalent in society that, though our young women may embroider slippers and crochet and make mats for lamps to stand on without disgrace, the idea of doing anything for a livelihood is dishonorable, it is a shame for a young woman belonging to a large family to bo Inefficient when iter father tolls his life away for her support. It is a shame for a daughter to ho idle while her mother tolls at the waslituli. It is ns honorable to sweep house, make beds or trim hats as it is to twist a watcli chain. So far as I can understand tho lino of respectability llos between that which Is useful and that which Is usoless. If women do that which Is of no value, thnlr work Is honorable. If the/do practical work, it is dishonorable. That our young women may escape the censuro of doing dishonorable work I shall particularize. You may knit a tidy for tlie back of an nrtn-chalr, but by no meuns make the money wooreWltb to buy the cbalr. You may with a delicate brush beautify a mantel ornament, but trie rather than enrn enough to buy a marble mantel. You may learn artistic music until you can squall Italian, but never sing "Ortonvllle" or "Old Hundredth." Do nothing practical if you would In the eyes of rellncd society preeerve vour lesnaetahtlitv I kw.nt finical notion*. 1 tell you a woman, no more tl?i* 11 n man, has a right to occupy n place In this wurl l unless alio pays a rent lor It. In the course of a lifetime you consume whole harvests anil droves of cattle and every dav you live breathe forty bogheads of good, pure air. You must h> some hind of usefulness pay for til! this. Our race was the last thing created--1 ho birds find fishes on the fourth day the cattle and lizards on the Itfth day and ma > on the stxtli dav. If geologists are right, the earth was a million of years In the posse rlon of the Insects, beusts uufl birds before * % onr race camo upon It. In on? sense w? were invaders. The cattle, the lizards and the hawks had preemption right. Tin question is not what wo are to do with tn? lizards and summer Insects, but what tlx lizards and summer insects are to do with us. If we want a place In this world, we must earn it. The partridge makes its own nest before it occupies it. The lark by its morning song earns Its breakfast before It eats it. and the Bible gives an intimation tliut the first duty of an idler is to starve when il says, "If he will not work, neither shall ho eat." Idleness ruins ttio health, aud very soon nature says: "This man has refusod to pay his rent. Out with him!" Society is to bo reconstructed on the subject of woman's toil. A vast majority of tuuau wuu wuuitl IIllVI* woman lllllUStrllUIS shut bur up to a low kinds ot work. My judgment In this matter Is that n woman has a right to do anything alio can do well. There should he no department of merchandise, mechanism, art orsclence barred against her. If Miss Ilosmer has genius for sculpture, give her a chisel. If Kosa lionheur has a fondness for delineating animals, let her make "The Horse Fair." If Miss Mitchell will study astronomy, let her mount the starry laddor. If Lydin will be a merchant, let lier sell purple. If Luoretla Mott will preach the gospel, lot Iter thrill with her womanly eloquence the (junker mooting house. It is said If woman Is given such opportunities she will occupy places that might be taken by men. I say, if she have more skill aud ndnptodness for any position thap ? a man hns, let her have it. She ha^Vo m much right to her bread, to lity ' ". ' (i ID IIC1 lit 1111*11 I1UVP. VT.tll' 'tiVrl " paid that liar nature is so delicate that shoo is unllttud for exhausting toil. I ask in the name of all past history what toil on earth is inoro severe, exhausting and tremendous than that toll of the noodle to which for ages she has been subjected? The battering ram, the sword, the carbine, the buttlcux, have made no sucli havoc as the noedlo. I would that these living sepulchres In which women have for ages been buried might bo opened and that some resurrection trumpet might bring up these living corpses in the fresh air and sunlight. Go with me, and I will show you a woman who by hardest toil supports her children, her drunken husband, her old father ami mother, pays her house rent, always lias wholesome food on her table and when she can get some neighbor on the Sabbath to aomo in and take care of her family appears in church with IJht and cloak that are far ironi Indicating the toll to which she is subjected. Such a woman as that lins body and soul enough to lit her for any positiou. She could stand beside the majority of your salesmen and dispose of more goods. She could go into your wheelwright shops and beat one-half of vour workmen nt making carriages. Wo talk : about woman as though we had resigned to her all the light work ami ourselves bad shouldered the heavier. Hut the day of judgment, which will reveal the sufTerlugs of the stake ami inquisition, will I marshal before the throne of God and the hlerarelis of heaven the martyrs of washtub and noodle. Now. I say if there be any preference in occupation let woman have it. God knows Iter trials aro the severest. Uy her neuter sensitiveness to mi-fortune, by her hour of anguish, I demand that no one hedge up her pathway to a livelihood. Oh, the meanness, the desplcahility of men who begrudge a woman the right to work anywhere in any honorable calling! I go still further and say that woman should have equal compensation with tncu. By what principle or justice is it that women In many of our cities get only twothirds lis much pay as men and in many cases only half? Here is the gigantic inju-* ! Geo?that for work equally well if not bettei j done woman receives Inr less compensa- | tion than man. Start with the National Government. Women clerks in Washington get $'Jl)0 tor doing that for which men receive $1S00. Ttie wheel of oppression Is roiling over the uccks of thousands of women who are at this moment in despair about what they ar to do. Many of the largest mercantile establishments of our cities are accessory to these abominations, nnd from their large establishments there are scores of souls being pitched ofT iuto death, and their employers know it. Is there a God? Will there lie a judgment? I tell you it God rises up to redress woman's wrongs many of our large establishments wilt be swallowed up quicker than a South American earthquake ever took down a olty.

Why is it that a female principal in n school gets only Jr82."? for doing work for which a male principal Rets $1C50? I hear from all this land tho wall ot womanhood. Man has nothing to answer to that wall but llattorles. He says she is nu angel. She is not. She knows she is not. She is a human bninR who gets hungry when she has no food nud cold when she has no lire. Give her no more flatteries; Rive bet ju-tlcel Oh, the thousand of sewing girls! Across the sunlight comes their death groan. It Is not such a cry as comes from those who are suddenly hurled out of life, but a slow, grinding, horrible wasting away. Gather them before you and look into their faces, pinched, ghastly, hunger struck! Look at their Augers, needle-pricked and bloodtipped! Hoe that premature stoop In the shoulders! Hear that dry, hacking, merciless cough I At a lnrge meeting of these women held in Philadelphia grand speeches wore delivered, hut a needlewoman took the stand, threw aside her faded shawl, and with her shriveled arm hurled a very thunderbolt of eloquence, speaking out the horrors of lew own oxperlen Stand at the corner of a street in some great cit y at (J or 7 o'clock in the tmwning as the women go to work. Many of them had no breakfast exeept the crumbs that were left over from the night before or the crumbs they chow on their way through the street. Hero they come! The working girls of the cities. These engaged in headwork, these In flower making, in millinery, in paper box making, but, most overwork of all and least compensate i, the sewing women. M'liy do they not take tho city cars on their way up? Thev cannot alTord I the Ave cents. If, concluding to deny her- j self something else, she gels Into the car, give her a seat. You want toseo h<>w T?u'lmer and ltidley appeared in the lire. Look at that woman and behold n more horriMo martyrdom, u hotter Are, a more ngonlr.lag death. A-k that woman how much she gets for her work, and she will tell you six cents for making coarse shirts and flnds her own Airead. Years ago one Sqbhath night in the vestibule of our church after service a woman fell in convulsions. The doctor said she needed medicine not so much as something to cat. A* she began to revive in her debriuin she said gaspingly: "Eight cents! Eight cents! 1 wish I could get it done. I urn so tired. I wish I could get some sleep, hut 1 must get it done, Eight cents! Kite lit cents!" We found afterward that she was making garment* for eight cents apiece iind that she could rnnkn hut three of thetn in a day. Hour it! Three times eight are twenty-four, Hear it, men and woman who have comfortable homo*! Home of the worst vidians of our cities are tlio employers of these women. Tuey bent them down to their Inst penny nnd try to client tlmin out of t tint. The woman must deposit a dollars or two before she gets the it irinents to work on. When the work is done, it Is sharply Inspected, the most inslgniilca it ilnws picked out and the wages refused and sometimes the dollar deposited not given back. The Women's Protective Union reports a case where one of the poor soul?, finding a place where she could get more wages, re.-olved to change employers and and went to get her pay for work done. The employer snhl, "I hear you.nre going to leave me?" "Yes," she said, "ami 1 have come to get wliut you owe me." lie mad-i no answer. Hhe said, "Aro you not goii g to pay me?" "Yes," he said, "1 will p..y you." And he kicked her dowustuirs. I How Kaffirs Bank Their Money.
