This discourse of Dr. Ta Image ia an
appeal for merry in behalf of oppressed
w man hood, and offers encouragement
to those strupfrling- for a livelihood;
Zt, Ecelesiastes iv., 1: "Behold the
tears of such at were oppressed, and
they had no comforter."
Vary long ago the needle was busy.
It was considered honorable for wom
an to toil in olden times. Alexander
the Great stood in his place showing
garments made by his own mother.
The finest tapestries at Rayeux wor
made by the queen of William the Con
queror. Augustus, the emperor, would
not wear any garments except those
that were fashioned by some member
of his royal family. So let the toiler
everywhere be respected!
The needle hns slain more than the
word. When the sewing machine was
invented, some thought that invention
would alleviate woman's toil and put
an end to the despotism of the needle.
Rut no; while the sewing machine
has been a great blessing to well-to-do
families in many eases, it has added to
he stab of the needle the crush of the
wheel and multitudes of women, not
withstanding the reenforcement of the
sewing machine, can only make, work
hard as they will, between two und
three dollars a week.
The greatest blessing that could have
happened to our first parents was be
ing turned out of Kden after they had
done wrong. Adam and Kve in their
perfect state might have got along
without work or only such slight em
ployment us a perfect gard'en with no
weeds in it demanded, but n.s soon ni
they had sinned the best thing for
ihem was to be turned out where thev
would have to work. We know what
a withering thing it is for man to have
nothing to do. Of the 1,000 prosperous
and honorable men that you know 099
bud to work vigorously at the begin
ning. But I om now to tell you t hat
industry is just as important for u
woman's safety and happiness. The
most unhappy women In our communi
ties to-day are. those who have no en
gagements to call them up in the
morning, who once hnving risen and
brenk ..sted lounge through the dull
forenoon in slippers down at the heel
and' with disheveled hair, reading the
last novel, and who, having dragged
through a wretched forenoon and
taken their afternoon sleep and having
passed an how and a half at their toi
let, pick up their cardcuse and go out
to make calls, und who nass their even-
ina DreaK up toe monotony. Arabella
Stuart never waa imprisoned in ao
dark a dungeon as that.
There is no happiness in an idle wom
an. It may bt with hand, it may be
with brain, it may be with foot, but
work she must or be wretched forever.
The little girls of our families must be
started with that idea. The curse of
American society is that our young
women are taught that the first, sec
ond, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh,
tenth, Iftieth, thousandth thing iu
their life is to get somebody to take
:arc of them. Instead of that the tirst
lesson should be how under Cod they
my take care of themselves. The sim
ple fact is that a majority of them do
tuvc to take care of themselves nnd
that, too, after having through the
false notions of their parents wasted
the years in which they ought to have
learned how successfully to maintain
themselves. We now and here declare
the inhumanity, cruelty and outrage
of that father and mother who pass
their daughters into womanhood hav
ing given them no facility for earning
their livelihood.
Mme. dc Stael said: "It is not these
writings that I am proud of. but the
f.tet that 1 have facility in ten occu
pations in any one of which 1 could
make a livelihood. " You say you have
a fortune to leave them. 0 man and
vwinan! lluvp you not learned that,
like vultures, like hawks, like eagles,
riches have wings and fly away?
Though you should be successful in
having a competency behind you, the
trickery ot executors may swamp it in
night, or some ollicinls in our
iliurches may get up a mining com
pany and induce your orphans to put
their money into a hole in Colorado
nnd if by the most skillful machinery
the sunken money cannot be brought
up again prove to them that it
was eternally decreed' that that was
tiie way thty were to lose it and that
it went in the most orthodox and heav
enly style. Oh, the damnable schemes
'hat professed Christians will engage
in until God puts His fingers into the
ollar of the hypocrite's robe und strip
U Clear down to the bottom! You have,
ao right because you are well off to
conclude that your children are going
W be well off. A man died leaving a
large fortune. His son fell dead in a
Philadelphia grogshop. His old com
lades came in and said as they bent
over his corpst: "What is the matter

but send your daughters into the world
with empty brain and unskilled hand,
There are women tolling in our cities
two or three dollars a week who
tat daughters or. mercsmat
These suffering ones
woald be glad to have the crumbs that
once fell from their father's table.
That wornout, broken shoe that ahs
wears ia the lineal descendant of the
$12 gaiter in which her mother walked,
and that torn and faded calico had an
cestry of magnificent brocade that
swept Pennsylvania avenue and Broad
way clean without any expense to the
atreet commissioners.
Though you live in an elegant resi
dence and fare sumptuously every day,
let your daughters feel it is a dis
grace for them not to know how to
work. I denounce the idea prevalent
in society that, though our young wom
en may embroider slippers and crochet
and make mats for lamps to stand on
without disgrace, the idea of doing
I anything tor a livelihood is dishonor-
ble. It is a shame for a young woman
belonging to a large family to be in
' efficient when her father toils his life
! away for her support. 1
So far as 1 can understand, the line
' of respectability lies between that
which is useful and that which is vise
j less. If women do that which is (
I no value, their work is honorable. If
they do practical work, it is dishonor
able. That our young women may es
cape the censure of doing dishonora
ble work, I shall particularise. You
may knit a tidy for the back of an arm
chair, but by no melius make t he money
wherewith to buy the chair. You may
with a delicate brush beautify a man
tel ornament, but die rather than earn
enough to buy a marble mantel. Vol
may lenrn artistic music until you can
squall Italian, but never sing "Ortou
ville" or "Old Hundredth." Do noth
ing pract'eal if you would, in the eyes
of refined society, preserve your re
spectability. 1 scout these finical no
tions. I tell you a woman, no more
than a man, has a right to occupy a
place in this world unless she pays a
rent for it.
In the course of a lifetime you con
sume whole harvests und droves of cat
tle and every day you live and breath
40 hogsheads of good, pure nir. You
must by some kind of usefulness pay
for all this. Our race was the last thing
created - the birds and fishes on thi
fourth day, the cattle ami lizards en
the fifth day and man on the sixlli day.
If geologists are right, the earth was
l.OOu.OlW of years in the possession of
the insects, beasts and birds before our
race came upon it. In one sense we
were invaders. The cattle, the lisardl
and the hawks had preemption right.
The question is not what we nte to do
with lizards and summer insects, but
what the lizards und 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
that the first duty of an idler is to
starve when it says: "If he will not
work, neither shall he eat." Idleness
ruins the health, and very soon nature
says: "This man has refused to pay his
rent. Out with him!" Society is to be
reconstructed on the subject of wom
an's toil. A vast majority of those who
would have woman industrious shut
her up to a few kinds of work. My
judgment in this mat ter is t hat a wom
an has a right to do anything she can
do well. There should be no depart
ment of merchandise, mechanism, art
or science barred aguinst her. If Misi
Hosmer has genius for sculpture, give
her a chisel. If Kosa ltonhrur has a
fondness for delineating animals, let
her make "The Horse Fair." If Miss
Mitchell will study astronomy, let her
mount the starry ladder. If Lydia will
be a merchant, let her sell purple. If
Lucretia Mott will preach the Gospel,
let her thrill with her womanly elo
quence the Quaker meeting house.
Years ago. one Sabbath night in the
vestibule of our church, nfter service,
a woman fell in convulsions. The doc
tor said she needed medicine not so
much as something to eat. As she be
gan to revive in her delirium she said,
gaspingly: "Eight cents! Bight
cents! 1 wish I could get it done. I
am no tired. I wish I could get some
sleep, but I must get it done. Eight
cents! Eight cents!" We found aft
erward that she was making gar
ments for eight cents apiece nnd that
she could make but three of them in
a day. Hear It! Three time eight
are 24. Hear It, men and women who
have comfortable homes! Some of
the worst villains of our cities arc the
employers of these women. They
beat them down to the last penny and
try to cheat them out of that. The
woman must deposit a dollar or two
before she gets the garments to work
on. When the work is done it is sharp
ly inspected, the most Insignificant
flaws picked out and the wages re
fused and sometimes the dollar de
posited not given back. The Women's
Pro tec tire union reports n ease where
one of the poor souls, finding a place
where she could get more wages, re
solved to change employers and went
to get her pay for work done. The
employer said: "I bear you are going
to leave me?" "Yes," she said, "and
I have come to get w hat you owe me."
I He made no answer. She said: "Are
you not going to pay me?" "Yes," h'l
said, "I will pay you," Hnd he kicked
her downstairs.
Oh, that Women's Protective union!
The blessings of Heaven be on it for
the merciful and Divine work it is do
ing in the defense of toiling woman
hood. What tragedies of suffering are
presented to them day by day! A
paragraph from their report: "Can
you make Mr. Jones pay me? He
owes me for three weeks at $2.50 a
week, and I can't get anything, and
my child is very sick." The speaker,
a young woman lately widowed,
bunt into a flood of teara as she
spoke. She waa bidden to eome again
the nest afternoon and repeat her
story to the attorney at hia usual
weekly hearing of frauds and imposi
tions. Means were found by which Mr.
Jones was Induced to pay the $7 .SO."
Another paragraph from their rs
The Eminent Kidney
and Bladder Specialist.
The Discoverer of Swamp-Root st Work is
His Laboratory.
There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep
tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by
It heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often the result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad
vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then the richness of the blood the albumen
leaks out and the sufferer has Bright'
Disease, the worst form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the new dis
covery is the true specific for kidney, bladder
and urinary troubles. It has cured thousands
of apparently hopeless cases, after all other
efforts have failed. At druggists In fifty-cent
and dollar sizes. A sample bottle sent free
by mail, also a book telling about Swamp
Root and its wonderful cures. Address

port: "A fortnight had passed, when
she modestly hinted a desire to know
how much her services were Worth.
'Oh, my dear.' he replied, 'you are get
ting to be one of the most, valuable
hauda in the trade. You will always
get the very best price. Ten dollars
a week you will be able to earn very
easily.' And the girl's fingers flew on
with her work at a marvelous rate.
The picture of ten dollars a week had
almost turned her head. A few nights
later, while crossing the ferry, she
overheard the name of her employer
In the conversation of girls who stood
near: 'What. John Snipes? Why, he
don't pay! Look out for him every
time. He'll keep you on trial, as he
c.ills it, for weeks, and then he'll let
you go. and get some other fool!' And
thus .lane .Smith gained her warning
against the swindler. Hut the union
held him In the toils of the law until
he paid the worth of each of those
days of 't rial.' "
Another paragraph: "Her mortifica
tion may be imagined when told that
one of the two tive-dollar bills which
she had just received for her work was
counterfeit. Hut her mortification
was swallowed up with indignation
when her employer denied having paid
her the money snd insultingly asked
her to prove it. When the Protective
union had placed this matter in the
courts, the judge said: 'Y'ou will pay
Eleanor the amount of her claim, $j.H3,
and also the costs of the court.' "
How are these evils to be eradicated?
Some say: "liive woman the ballot."
What effect such ballot might have on
other questions I am not here to dis
cuss, hut what would be the effect of
female suffrage on women's wages? I
do not believe that woman w ill ever get
justice by woman's ballot. Indeed
women oppress women as much as
men do. Do not women, as much as
men. beat down o the lowest figure
the woman who sews for them? Are
not women as shurpas men on washer
women and milliners and inaiitui
makers. If a woman asks one dollar
for her work, does not her female em
ployer ask her if she will not take K)
cents? You say: "Only ten cents dif
ference." Iiiit that is sometimes the
difference between Heaven and hell.
Women often have less commiseration
for women thau men. If a woman
steps aside from the path of rectitude,
man may forgive; woman never!
Woiuan will never get justice done her
from womun's ballot. Neither will she
get it from man's ballot. How then?
God will rise up for her. Cod has more
resources than we know of.
But there is something forwomen to
do. Let young people prepare to excel
in spheres of work, and they will be
able after awhile to get larger wages.
Unskilled and incompetent labor must
take what is given; skilled and com
petent labor will eventually make Its
own standard. Admitting that the law
of supply and demand regulates thes-.'
things, I contend that the demand for
skilled labor is very great and the sup
ply very small. Start with the idea
that work is honorable and that you
can do some one thing better than any
body else. Kesolve that, Qod helping,
you will take care of yonrself. If you
are after awhile called into another
relution, you will le all the better
qualified for it by your spirit of self
reliance, or if you are called to stay ns
you ure you can be happy nnd self
supporting. Poets are fond of talking about man
as an oak and woman the vine that
climbs it. but I have seen many a tree
fall that not only went down itself, but
took all the vines with it. I can tell
you of something st ronger t han an orilc
for an ivy to climb on, and that is the
throne of the great Jehovah. Single or
affianced, that woman is strong who
leans on God and does her best. Many
of you will go single-handed through
life, and you will have to choose be
tween two characters. Young woman,
I am sure you will turn your back upon
the useless, giggling, irresponsible
nonentity which society ignominlously
acknowledges to be a woman and ask
God to make you a bumble, active,
earnest Christian. What will become
of that womanly diselple of the world?
She is more thoughtful of the attitude
she atrikea upon the carpet than how
ahe will look in the judgment; more
worried about her freckles than, her
sins; more interested in her apparel
than in Iter redemption. The dying
actress whoas life had bean vicious
asm : 'Trie eeene closes. Draw the cur
tain." Generally the tragedy comes
first and the farce afterward, but in
her life it was first the farce of a use
less life and then the tragedy of a
wretched eternity.
Compare the life and death of such
a one with that ef some Christian aunt
that was once a blessing to your house
hold. I do not know that she was ever
asked to give her hand in marriage.
She lived single, that, untrammeled,
she might be everybody's blessing.
Whenever the sick were to be visited or
the poor to be piovided with bread she
went with a blessing. She could pray
or sing: "Kock of Ages" for any sick
pauper who asked her. As she got old
er there were days when she was a lit
tle sharp, but for the most part auntie
was a sunbeam, just the one for Christ
mas eve. She knew better han anyone
else how to fix things. Her every prayer,
as God heard it, was full of everybody
who had trouble. The brightest things
ki all the house dropped from her
fingers. She had peculiar notions, but
the grandest notion she ever had was
to make you happy. She dressed well
but her highest adornment was that of
a meek and quiet spirit, which. In the
sight of God, is of great price. When
she died, you all gathered lovingly
about her. nnd as you carried her out
to rest the Sunday School class almost
covered her coffin with japonieas. nnd
the poor people stooil at the end of the
alley, with their aprons to their eves,
sobbing bitterly, nnd the man of the
world said, with Solomon: "Her price
was above rubies," and Jesus, as unto
the maiden in Judea, commanded: "I
say unto thee, arise!"
