Possibly, Mr. Edi tor. you have not considered this subject, and your readers, at a glance may carelessly laugh. However, plett9o look »tt it seriously. Go into ntty of the churches during services, and you will find that on an average, two-thirds i f the worshippers are wo* men. To * rolls of membership will show eboiit the same proportion •*f H.e s»*\ .e. Now admitting that the litv dividing church member from ’ .m-members does not exactly divide tii« good from the bad, still the conclusion is sound that in gen* eral the members will go to heaven, and the non-members will go to hell. That, is a fair deduction—an ortho dox dednetion. Sinful members of churches ile comparatively few; so are Ohristana who do not belong to churches. Both classes combined would not alter the calculation ap preciably. Eveu if yo M put the ques tion on ft basis of morality (which oannot properly he done, seeing that there is no salvation through morali ty alou*»,) tin* result of candid reason ing is the same. In works of chari ty. women equally outnumber men. "Women in tho main lead pure lives, and depravity is well nigh confined to men. You are bound to believe, there fore, that about two-thirds of all the beings brought together in eternal blUsJwill be my sex. Women should arouse themselves to do what they may lor the conver sion of men to Christainity. Please do not construe this as a selfish tip peal, arising from an earthly dread of unhappily diapropotionate gatherings of e x s. ) simply s <k to bring wick ed men to leprutance. Mary Ellen Quash. Wouldn't Marry a Mechanic. A young man commenced visiting m young woman and appeared to be pleased. One evening lie called when It was late, which led the young lady to inquire wher* he had been. “I had to work to-night.” “Wlintl you work for a living?” she inquired in ustonishmont. “Certainly,” replied the young man “I am n mechanic.” “I dislike the name of mechanic,” and she turned up her prettv nose. This was the last time the young man visited the young lady. He is now a wealthy man, and bus one of the best women in the country for a wife. The young lady who disliked the name of a mechanic is now the wife of a miserable fool—a regular vagrant about grog-shops, and tho soft, verdant, silly, miserable girl is obliged to take in washing in order to support herself and children. You dislike the name ol mechanic ch! You whose brothers are but well dressed loafers. Wo pity any girl who is so verdant, so soft, as to think loss of a young man for being a me chanic—one o! God’s noblemen—the most dignified and honorable person ages ol Heaven’? creatures.
