The Daughters of Eve.
While in Mdcon we had the pleasure
to hear Mrs. M. J. Westmorelands
lecture Wednesday night on the
‘Daughters of Eve.” It was a very
creditable effort, showing Mrs. W.,
to be a highly cultured lady, and
anything but a womafis lighter. She
read her lecture without any attempt
at putting on agony, in which she
showed good taste. We arb not gen
erally an advocate of female lecturers
but her conclusion is well worth a per-
sonal by our readers.

Enjoyment and Suffering.
Did you ever enjoy anything with
out paying for it in brain or. annoy
ance? .If you did, yonr experience
must be; exceptional. Most people
pay dearly, for their pleasures. T,he
principal things they get out of life are
work and-care. The fewer blessings
one has the less clanger of disappoint
ment,.hope deferred, and real sorrow.
A-erude/life, that clings to practicali
ties with no reaching out after higher
things, and no yearning for experi
ence, is tiie one most peaceful.
Yet, who shall dare to stay the ahp
bitious, discontented, longing soulji
that speeds away over lands and seas,;*
after knowledge? Somewhere must
be-the unfolded begin. Why not one
time as well. as another? What if
earnest resolyes are scattered like bnb
bles before the tempter’s eyes faeina-
tions!. What matter that men and
women, strong in their o«n conceit,
are swayed hither-and thither in the
world, like delicate .ships in a storm!
Suppose that many are stranded and
wrecked, and that some go down and
axe, lost? A few. reach the goal in
safety. Others, recovered from wreck
and disaster regain the highroad, and
go dn with uplifted gaze, and conce
crated purpose. At last the lost shall
yield its victims. Upon the brow of
many a world-condemned man or wo
man wilUbe written, “Inasmuch as ye
have striven, go up higher;” and the
crude, calm soul, must stay in the
valley, until a thSst after the air and
fight of,the mountain top;, sets him
scrambling ove~ rock, briar and pre
cipice. Then who knows bathe may
wander into . darker ravines, or-leap
over some dreadful abyss than did
those he criticised and condemned?
The-way is rugged for all? A mantle
of charity will ward off many a bleed
ing wound. Lifes’ pleasures are few
enough. Lighten the burden as best
we-can, and no human aid dSn lift the
lever qf progress, which is Suffering.
