A SERMON FOR WOMEN
REV. DR. TALMAGE DESCRIBES THE
NEW WOMAN.

Too Often Forgotten.
Washington, Nov. 17.-—Rev. Dr. Tal-
tnage took for thounbjrct of today’s ser-
mon “A Word With Women,” tho (ext
for the occasion being the following let
ter received by the distinguished preach-
er:
Rkvekend Sir—You delivered u discourse
In aiifru'cr to u letter from six young men of
Fayette, O., requesting you to preach a k r-
nion on “Advice to Young Men.” Are we justi
fied in asking you to preach a sermon on “ Ad
vice to Y'oung WomenV”
Letter 8h;neu nv Six Young Women.
Christ, who took Ins text from » flock
of birds flying overhead, saying, “Be
hold the fowls of tho air,” and from the
flowers in the valley, saying, “Consider
the lilies of tho field,” and from the
clucking of a barnyard fowl, saying,
“As a ben gathereth herchickeus under
her wing,” and from a crystal of salt
picked up by the roadside, saying,“Salt
is good,” will grant us a blessing if, in
stead of taking a text from the Bible, I
take for my text this letter from Cin
cinnati, which is only cno of many let
ters which I have received from young
women in New York. New Orleans, San
Francisco,Loudon, Edinburgh, and from
the ends of the earth, all implying that,
having some months ago preached the
sermon on “Advice to Young Men,” I
could not, without neglect of duty, re
fuse to preach a sermon on “Advice to
Young Women.”
It is the more important that the pul
pit be heard on this subject at this time
when we are having such an illimitable
discussion about what is called the new
woman, as though some new creature of
God had arrived on earth or were about
to arrive. One theory is that she will
be an athlete, and boxing glove and
football and pugilistic encounter will
characterize her. Another theory is that
she will superintend ballot boxes, sit in
congressional hall and through improved
politics bring the millennium by tho
evil she will extirpate and the good she
will install. Another theory is that she
will adopt masculine attire and make
sacred a vulgarianism positively horrific.
Another theory is that she will he so
(esthetic that broom handle and rolling
pin and coal scuttle will be pictorialized
with tints from soft skies or suggestions
of Rembrandt and Raphael.
The New Woman Will He Good.
Heaven deliver the church and the
world from any one of those styles of
new woman! She will never come. I
have so much faith in the evangelistic
triumph and in the [frogress of all things
in the right direction that I prophesy
that style of new woman will never ar
rive. She would handover this world to
diabolism, and from being, as she is
now, the mightiest agency for the
world’s uplifting, she would be the
mightiest force for its downtbrust.
I will tell you who the new woman
will be. It will be the good woman of
all the ages past. Here and there a dif
ference of attire, as the temporary cus
tom may command, hut the same good,
honest, lovely, Christian, all influential
being that your mother and mine was.
Of that kind of woman was Christian
Eddy, who, talking to a man who was
so much of an unbeliever he had named
his two children Voltaire and Tom Paine
nevertheless saw him converted, he
breaking down with emotion as he said
to her, “I cannot stand you, you talk
like my mother.” And telling the story
of his conversion to companions who
had been blatant oppm ers of religion
they asked her to come and see them
also and tell them of Christ, and four
of them were converted, and all the oth
ers greatly changed, and the leader of
the band, departing for heaven, shouted:
“.Joyful! Joyful! Joyful!” Ifyouknow
any better stylo of woman than that,
where is she? The world cannot im
prove on that kind. The new woman
may have more knowledge because she
will have more hooks, hut she will have
no more common s< n,-o than that which
tried to manage and discipline and edu
cate us, and did as well as she could
with such unpromising material. fc?he
may have more health than the woman
of other days, for the sewing machine
and the- sanitary regulations and added
intelligence on the subjects of diet, ven
tilation and exercise and rescue from
many fonus of drudgery may allow her
more longevity, but she will have the
same characteristics which God gave her
in paradise, with the exception of tho
nervous shock :md moial jolt of the fall
she got that day when, not noticing
where she stepped, she looked up into
the brandies of the fruit tree.
But I must be specific. This letter Jie-
foro mo wants advice to young women.
Get Klsiit With God.
Advice the first: 'Get your soul right
with God and you will be in tho best
attitude for everything that comes. New
ways of voyaging liy sea, new ways of
traveling by land, new ways of thrash
ing tho harvests, new ways of printing
books—and (be patent ofllco is enough to
enchant a man who has mechanical in
genuity and knows u good deal of levers
and wheels—and wo hardly do anything
us it used to be done; invention after
invention, invention on top of inven
tion. But in the matter of gettingright
with God there lias not boon an inven
tion for 0,000 years. It is on the sumo
line of repentance that David exercised
about his sins, and tho same old stylo
of prayer that the publican used when
he emphasized it by an inward stroke
of both hands, and the same faith in
Christ that Paul suggested to tho jailer
the night the penitentiary broke down.
Aye, that is the reason I have more con
fidence in it! It lias been tried by more
millions than I dare testate lest I come
fur short of the brilliant facts. All who
through Christ, earnestly tried to get
right with G<sl are right and always
will bo right. That gives tho young
woman who gets that position superior
ity over all rivalries, all jealousies, all

A ppreeliite Your Mother.
Advice the third: Appie'datc your
mother while 3'ou have her. it is tit' til-
most universal testimony of young w r-m-
eu who have lost mother that they did
not realize what she wa to l!um until
after her exit from this life. Indeed
mother is in the appreciation of many a
young lady a hindrance. The maternal
inspection is often considered un ob
stacle. Mother has so many notions
about that which is proper and that
which is improper. It is astounding ho*'
much more many girls know at 18 than
their mothers at 4.7. With what an elab
orate argument, perhaps spiced with
some temper, the youngling tries to re
verse the opinion of the oldling. The
sprinkle of gray on the maternal fore
head is rather an indication tothc re<-( nt
graduate of tho female seminary that
tho circumstances of today or tonight
are not fully appreciated.
What a wise boarding school that
would be if the mothers were the pupils
and tlie daughters the teachers! How
well the teens could chnpcrou the fifties!
Then mothers do not amount to much
anyhow. They aio in the way and are
always atking questions almut p< itage
marks of b iters, and a king, “Who is
that MaryD.?” and “Where did you
form that acquaintance, Fh ra?” and
“Where did you get that ring, Myra?”
For rnotliers have Mich unprecedented
means of knowing everything—they say
“it was a bird in the air” that told
them. Alas, for that bird in the air!
Will not some one lift hi;- gun and shoot
it? It would takewhole librurbnto hold
the wisdom which the due; liter knows
more than her mother. “UI13' cannot I
have this?” “Whyeamu t 1 do that?”
And the qu(.*ti"ii in many a go up has
been,although not plainly 11ah d: “ What
shall we do with the motii' r.s anyhow?

there is someone in a tragedy compared

and read a chapter to that blind man.
