Blark Twain on Woman-
Tie Cosmopolitan, London.]
On the 209th anniversary of St. Andrew’s
Day, on Monday eveninglast, at the banquet
given in Freemasons’ Hall, Mark Twain,
who responded for “the ladies,” made the
speech of the evening. We can give his
words, but not the infinite drollery of bis ut
terances. He said: 1 am *proud, indeed, of
the distinction of being chosen to respond to
this special toast to “the ladies,” or to
women, if yon please, for that is the prefera
ble term, perhaps; it is certainly the older,
and therefore the more entitled to rev
erence. [Laughter.] I hatra noticed that
the Bible, with that plain,
blunt honesty which is such a conspicuous
characteristic of the Scriptures, is always
particular to never refer to even the illustri
ous mother of all mankind herself as a
“lady,” but speaks of her as a woman.
[Laughter.) It is odd, but you will find it is
so. lam peculiarly proud of this honor, be
cause I think that the toast to womewls one
which, by right, and by every rule of gallan
try, should take precedence of rll trthrw/ nf
the army, of the navy, of even royalty itself,
perhaps, though the latter is not necessary
-in this day and in this land, for the
reason that, tacitly, yon do drink a broad,
general health to all good women when yon
orink the health of the Queen of .England
and the Princess of Wales. [Loud cheers.]
1 have in mind a poem just now, which is
familiar to all, familiar to everybody. And
what an inspiration that was (and how in
stantly the present toast recalls the verses to
onr minds,) when the moat noble, the most
gracious, the purest and sweetest of all poets
says:
“Woman! O woman!—er—
Worn—”
[laughter]—however, you remember the
tinea and you remember how feelingly, how
daintily, how almost impreceptibly the verses
rise up before you, feature by feature, the
ideal of a true and perfect woman; and bow,
as you contemplate the finished marvel, your
•homage grows into worship of the intellect
that could create so fair a thing out of mere
breath, mere words. And you call to mind
now, aa I speak, how the poet, with Btem
fidelity to the history of all humanity, de
livers this beautiful child of his heart and
his brain over to the trials and the sorrows
that must come to all, sooner or later, that
abide in the earth; and how the pathetic story
•culminates in that apostrophe—so wild, so
regretful, so full of mournful retrospection.
The lines ran thus:
“Ala* i— Stas!—«—ab* l
Ala*! alas!
and soon. [Laughter.] I do not recollect
thereat; but, taken altogether, it seems to
me that that poem is the noblest trib ate to
woman that human genius has ever brought
-forth, [laughter] and I feel that if I were to
talk hours I could not do my theme com
pleter or more graceful justice than I have
now done in simply quoting that poet’s
matchless words. [Renewed laughter] The
phases of the womanly nature are infinite in
their variety. Take any type of woman and
you shall find In it something to respect,
something to admire, something to
love. And you shall find the whole world
•joining your heart and hand. Who was
more patriotic than Joan of Arc ? Who was
braver? Who has given us a grander in
stance of self-sacrificing devotion ? Ah, you
remember, you remember well, what a throb
•of pain, what a great tidal wave of grief
swept over ns all when Joan of Arc fell at
Waterloo I [Much laughter] Who does not
sorrow for tue loss of Sapnho, the sweet
singer of Israel. [Laughter.] Who among
us does not miss the gentle ministra
tions, the softening influences, the hum
ble piety of Lucretia Borgia? [Laughter.]
Who can join in the heartless libel that says
woman is extravagant in dress when he can
took back and calf to mind our simple and
lowly mother Eve arrayed in her modifica
tion of the Highland costume? [Roars of
laughter.] Sir, women have been soldiers;
women nave been painters; women have
been poets. Aa long as language lives the
name of Cleopatra will live. And, not be
cause she conquered George HI—[Laughter.]
—but because she wrote tuese divine lines:
“Let dor* delight to bark and bilo.
For God hath made them no.*'
.[More laughter ] The story of the wcrld is
adorned with tne names of illustrious ones
of our own sex—some of them sons of St.
Andrew, too—Scott, Bruce, Bums, the war-
rion Wallace, Ben Nevis—[laughter]—the
gifted Ben Lomond, and the great new
Scotchman, Ben Disraeli. [Great laughter.]
•Out of thegreatplainsof history lower whole
mountain ranges of sublime women— the
•Queen of Sheba, Josephine, Semarimis, Sai-
rey Gamp: the list i3 endless—[laughter]
hut I will not call the mighty
xoll, the names rise np in your own
memories at the mere suggestion, luminous
with the glory of deeds that can nut die, hal
lowed by the loving worship of the good
and the true of all epochs and of all
-climes. [Cheers] Suffice it for onr pride
And onr honor that tve in onr day have added
to it such uainr-H aa iho<o of Grace Dolling
and Florence Nightingale. [Cheers.] Wo
man is all that she should be—gentle, pa
tient, long-suffering, trustful, unselfish, fall
-of generous impulses. It is her blessed
•mission to comfort the suffering, plead
for the erring, encourage the faint of
purpose, snccor the distressed, uplift the fall
en, befriend the frienoless—in a word, afford
the healing of her sympathies and a home
in her heart for all the bruised and perse-
•cuted children of misfortune that knock at
•Its hospitable door. [Cheers.] And when 1
.say, God bless her, there is none among ns
-who has known the ennobling affection of a
wife, or the steadfast devotion of * mother,
<butin his heart will say, amen! [Load and
^prolonged cheering.]

VEGETABLE LIVER PILLS
THE ONLY KNOWN MEDICINE
THAT AT fm* lAirtl TIMS
PURCE8, PURIFIES AND STRENGTH
ENS THE SYSTEM-
Br. Tutt’s Pills are composed of many in
gredients. Prominent among them are Sarsaparilla
and W'ld Cherry, so united as to act together; the
on? through Its admixture with other enbBtances,
eurifying and purging; while the other Is strength
enin' the system. Tnus these Pills are at the same
tlmv a tonic and a cathartic, a desideratum long
rougt t for by medical men, but never before dis
covered. In other words, they do the work of two
medicines and do it much better than any two we
know of for they remove nothing from the system
but imuurities. so that while they purge they also
strengthen, and hence hey cause no debility and are
followed by no reaotion.
Br. rutl’s Pills have a wonderful Influence
on tbe blood. They not only purify without weaktn-
lug it, but they remove all noxiousparticles from the
chyle ueforeli Is converted into fluid,and thus makes
impure blood an alter impossibility. As there is no
debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness at
tending the operation ot this most excellent medicine,
which never strains or tenure? the digestive organs,
but causes them to work in a perfeejy natural man
ner; hence persons taking them do not become pair
and emaciated, baton the contrary, while all impuri
ties *ie being removed, th i oomMned action oi tm
Sarsaparilla and wild tineny purifies aud invigorates
the body, and a robust state of health is the result of
their united action. -Price Of cents a box. Sold bj
