If you have not, but send your daughters Into tbi world with empty braiu nud unckllloil hand, you aro guilty of nssnsslnaliou homlcido, lufnutlulde. There are women tolling in our nltios foi 2 or 43 a week who weru the daughters ol merchant princes.

Though you live In nn elegant residence nud fare sumptuously everyday, lot your daughter fool it is a disgrace for them not to know how to work. I denounce the Idea prev alent in society that, though our youug women may embroider Bllppors nnd orochei nnd make mats for lamps to slaud on with out disgrace, the Idea of doing unytliing for a livelihood Is dishonorable. It Is n Bbaino for a young woman belonging to n largo family to bo Inefllnlont when bt fattier tolls bis llfu away for her support. It Is u shame for a daughter to bu Idle while her mother tolls at thownshlub. It li lts honorable to sweep house, uiitku beds oi trim huts as it Is to twist a natch chain. Ho fur ns I can understand the line ot re spectability llos between tbut which Is nau tili nnd that which Is useless. If women do tbut which is of no value, their work Is honorable. It they do praotluiil work, it li dishonorable. That our young women may escape the censure of doing dishonor able work I shall particularize. You may knit a tidy for the back of annrm-olmlc but by no means make the money wnero wlth to buy the chair. You mav wit It n dollante brush beautify a mantel orna ment,, but die rather than earn enough tc buy n marble mantel. You may learn artistic muslo until you nan squall Italian, but never sing "Ortonvlllo" or "Old Hun dredth." lo nothing prnctlcal If you would in the eyes of rcllued society pre serve your respectability. I soout thns finical notions, I toll yon a woman, n-i inure than u mini, has a right to occupy n place in this world unless she pays n runt lor It. . In the courso of a lifetime you couaunie Whole harvests and droves of cattle and every day you live breathe forty bogheads of good, pure air. You must by boiuo Mud of usefulness pay for nil this. Our nice was the last thing created tho birds and Unties on tho fourth day tbu calllu nnd lizards on tbo fifth day nnd man on the sixth day. If geologists aro right, the earth was a million of years iu the pupsoo 8lon ot the Insects, beusts aud birds bcturn our i., .j cuiuo upou It. In one shush wc, wero luvnuers. The cattle, tho lizards and tho Iiuwks bad pr-iomptlou right. Th nuestluu is nut what we are to do wltli the llxiinls aud summer Insects, but what the lizards and summer insects are to do with us. If ,a waut a place lu this world, we1 must earn It. The partridge make IU own nest bufore It uccuple it. The uric by its morning snug entns its breakfast before it nuts It, nnd tbs lllblo gives nn Intimation that tho first duty of nu ,ur Is to starve wbon It says, "it ho will not work, nolther shall bo oat." Idleness ruins the health, and very soou nature suyn: 'This man ba refused to pay his rent, dut with him!" oelty Is to be rtnjoiiathioled ou the sub. ,ct of woman's toll. A vajt majority ol those who would have womali lnduatrlott, shut hur mi to ii few kluds at work. My Judgiuout lu this matter Is liat a wotnuu lias a rtgat to do anytning sne can do well There should be no department e f mer against iter.

If Miss Mitchell will study astronomy, let her mount tho starry ladder. If lydln will be a merchant, let her sell purple. If I.ucretbt Mott will proacli the gospel, let her thrill with her womanly clo'pioiiee the Quaker meeting uouse. It In said If woman Is given sueli oppor tunities she will occupy places that might bo taken by men. I sny, If she hnvo more skill and ndsptedne!.s for any position than a man has, let her have It. Nlio has ns muah right to her bre.id, to her npparet mid to her home ns men linvs. Hut It i snld that tier nature Is so d'lliunlo that alio la unllttod for exhausting loll. I ask in the nnme of nil past history what toll on enrth Is more sevore, exharmtlng and tremen dous than that toll of tbn tiemlio to which for ages she has been snbjeeted? Tho bat tering rain, tho sword, tho carbine, tho bnttloax, have made nn micb havoc ns tho needle, I would thuttln-su living sepul cliros In whloh wnmeu bavo for nges been burled might bo opened nud tbut some re surrection trumpet might bring up these living corpses In the fresh air and sunlight. Go with me. and I will show you a wom an who by hardest toll supports her chil dren, her drunken husband, her old fathot and motbor, pays her house rent, always bus wbolesoiiiu food on her table and when she can get some neighbor on tho H'ibbiiM; to come In and take care of her family up. i.rs In church with bar and Ic-uk that are far Irom Indicating the toll to which sho Is subjected. Hucli a woman ss thnt bus body and soul enough to lit her tor any position. Mho could stand beside the ma jority of your salesmen nnd dispose of mure goods. Hhe could go Into your wheel wright shops and beat ouc-halt of yont workmen at making carriages. We talk about womuu ns though wo had resigned to her nil the IWht work and our selves had shouldered the heavier. Hill the day of judgment, which will reveal the sulTcrlugs of the stake nnd Inquisition, will marshal before the throne ot God and tuo blernrehs of heaven the martyrs of wash tub and needle. Now, Isay If ihero be any prorerence In occupation let woman have It. God kuows her trims lire the severest. Ily her neuter sonsltlvuness to misfortune, by her hour of anguish. I demnnd thnt no ono hedge up tier pathway to a livelihood. Oh, the meanness, the desplcnblllty of men who begrudge n woman the right to work an yw hero iu any honorable culling! I go still further and say that w.imiiu t liould huvo equal coinnensatiou wltli men. Ily what prliiciple of justice fo It that women In many ot our cities get only two thirds ns much pay n.s men and lu many cases only half?

INTERNATIONAL LESSON COMMENTS fOR MARCH 13. iibjecli ifeaiis nt Matthew' llouae, Marie II., m-rt-Onlden Text: I.ulte v., XT Memory Versai. Id. 11 Commentary on the Hay's l.eaaon- 13. It Is supposed that the call of Mnt. tliew tollowed soon after the beating ot the parnlvtlc. See Inst lesson. "Ilv the son side." Ho may bavo gono tboro for room, as He could clearly see that no house was of sufficient slr.e to accoinmodatj tho great crowds that desired to sen and henr Him. This must have been near Capernaum, "where tboro wns probably a suburb of fisher's huts and custom-houses." "Ho taught them." Jesus was always busily en gaged. 14. "Levi." The same as Matthew. He was n Jew, and he calls himself a publican (Matt. 10:3), or tax-gatherer, nn offlce which was vory odious to tho Jewish poo pie. "The son of Aipbntis." Henry thinks Levi, James and Less, .1 tide ami Simon, tho ('anaiuille, were brothers; but I.ange and others think differently. "The receipt of custom." Toll-bouse, or custom-house. It wns a busy center of merchandise tbo landiug-phica ot many ships, nml "a nat ural place for tbn collection of tribute nud taxes." There wore two classes of publl eiins, the common tax-gatherer and tho custom-house official. Levi was of tbo latter class, but was no less odious to tlio Jews because of that. "Follow me.'' It is supposed that Matthew bad bein Influ enced by John's preaching, nud had heard Jesus ou other occasions, but, ns ho wns a publican, Ihe dared not hope lor personal recognition far less for n call to disciple ship; and when it came bo w.eited not for n seojnd call, but Immediately left his custom-house, "nrosu and followed Him." Our Lord calls men from all classes and conditions of life. 15. "s)ut at moat In bis house." Thls'wns soon nftor tho call. The feast (Luko was mado to show his thankfulness to God for his remarkable deliverance from tho old custom-house. "He also wle-hcd to in troduce bis friends and obi companions to Christ." "Many piibllenns." Those, prob nbly, who belonged to bis custom-house. According to Jewish traditionalism tho publican was, 1, An excomuiuulcnted per son. An apostate, 3. An instrument ot oppression. 4, A stumbling-block aud ii by-word. The Jews who woro employed by tbo ltomiins to collect tnxes were "no toriously corrupt and belonged to tbo lowest classes, for no others would accept tbo position. ' Aud sinners." Tho openly wicked. 1'erhnps, ns J)r. Clarke thinks, the word hero may mean tbo Gentile heathen. "Tbey followed Him." Tbnt Is, Jesus. "They had not for conscience sake left all to follow Him," but tbey bad come to tho fenst nnd through tho Influeuco of Levi were belug won over to Him. lti. "When the scribes nnd Pharisees." They would not believe In Christ them selves, and wero always trying to hinder others. Tho self-righteous I'barlseo con sidered II equal to legal defilement to sit lu company with tax-gatherers and heath ens. It shows tbn spirit of Independence ou the part of our Lord to thus violate tholr traditions. Jesus desired to save men aud Ho knew Ho must mlnglo with them. Hut this should not be curried too far. Dr. Clarke woll says "It is certain that those who (ear God should not asso ciate, through choice, with tho workers ot Iniquity, nud should only be found with them when business requiros It, or when there Is a prospect ot doing goo. I to their souls." "How Is It." They were evidently endeavoring to influeuco tho disciples against Jesus. 17. "When Jesus heard it." Jesus ii ready for them; Ho cnu answer their cavil ing. "They that aro whole," You scribes and Pharisees consider yourselves wholo! You are, In your own estimation, righteous persons; you do uot need a physician; you do nut need My counsel nnd advice, and the salvation I bring; but these tpubll caus nud sinners these outcasts know they arosick, thev know tbey nro tbo worst ot sinners, aud 1 came to call -'and save them. So Jesus meets nud sllennes them. Notice that Christ represents Himself as the Physician for soul and body. "To re pentuuee." These words are omitted lu the ltovlsod Version. It Is true, however, tbnt till who come to Christ must repent. There muse ne such nenrttcic contrition ror sins committed thnt tho soul will loathe nud forsake thom. True repentance Is wrought In tho heart by the Holy Spirit. 18. "Used to fast." In tbo law we find only one fast-day enjoined, namely, tho tenth of the seventh month, on which the national, linn mil atonement was made. Hut tlio Jews, of their own accord, 'observed many other days of fasting (see Isn. 68:8), nnd In our Lord's tlmo the Pharisees fasted twice a week. They were surprised to llnd Him overlooking this duty. Tbo Pharlseos fasted In order to hnvo lucky dreams and to obtain things they greatly desired. It seems very prnbablo tbnt this very day, when Jesus and His disciples were feast ing, was one ot their fast days, nnd this fact seemed to nggravnto tbeolTonse. "Hut Tnyjdlsolples fast not." Jesus not only or feuded them by eating with publicans and sinners, but by eating ut all. 19. "Jesus snld unto thom." He pro ceeds now with three familiar Illustrations, by menus of which He justifies His disci ples in the course they were taking, and at the same time brings out somo very Impor tant truths. "Whllo the Uridegroom Is with them." Tills wns not a proper time to fast. His disciples woro thou lu the llrst flush of enjoyment iu their uow-found Lord, and while He wns with them there was no occasion for fasting. "Marrlago foastB were times of extraordinary festiv ity," mid Jesus tails thoui that His disci ides now aro enlovlni;. and rlrrhllv too just such a feast. M. "The days wllleouio." It is Impossible to formulate rules to meet each Individual ease. The days would come ' when ills dlBclples would fnst, but not now. "Awny from them." He would leave them after a time. "In those days." Of calamity anil darkness that are coining, then it will be proper to fast. Tasting Is good, but to make a merit ot It or oven to burden the eoiisolenoe with It, Is opposed to spiritual freedom. It Is spiritual prldo when, In matters which God has left to our free dom, people desire that others should regu late their piety by tholr rules. 31. "On nn old garment." Instend ot closing the rent the now patch would ouly make tho rent larger. He had given thorn one reason why His discinlos did not fast and now He proceeds to give uuother. They are not prepared for It. It Is uot proper to lay such rigorous commands upon them.
