Woman’s Work From a Bible
Standpoint.
Written for The Record.
Has she the right to tell her re¬
ligious experience and call a lost
world hack to God?
Paul says :“Let your women keep
silence in the churches; for it is not
permitted unto them to speak ; but
they are commanded to be under
obedience, as also saith the law.
And if they will know anything,
let them ask their husbands at
home : for it is a shame for women
to speak in the church,” 1 Cor. 14:
34 - 35 - This passage refers exclu¬
sively to married women, and to
that class of married women who
are asking questions or seeking in¬
formation, for the qpostle says, “if
they will learn anything let them
ask their husbands at home.” The
vvowan, married or single, who
has a message from God to deliver,
does not come within the purview
of the divine injunction.
If absolute silence is enjoined,
the men must do all the singing
and teach all the Sunday school
classes. Churches which require
women to tell their experience be¬
fore receiving them into the church,
must surrender this unscriptural
practice.
The apostle certainly permits
women to P™P h «y. “nd the
church at Corinth the follow ' n 8
Actions ; “Every man praying or
prophesying, having his head cov¬
ered, dishonoreth his head. But ev¬
ery woman praying or prophesying
with her head uncovered, dishonor-
eth her head, 1 cor. 11 : 4-5. Al-
most the whole of the 14th chap-
ter of 1st Corinthians is devoted to
the discussion of “prophesying”
“speaking with tongues.” In
the 5th verse, the Apostle says:
„ Greater ., he that propesieth than
he that spea keth with tongues.”
speak with, tongues is to use a
language the people do not under-
stand, and is useless and senseless
without an interpreter. L In verses
Pau , says Tha t the whole
c ^ urc ^ ma come together, and
-
that all may J prophesy. r J In verse
31, he says: “Ye may all prophesy,
: one by one, that all may learn, and
that all may be comforted.” The
whole church most assuredly in-
cluces the women. The only dif-
ference in a prophet and a prophet-
ess is in sex . Dr. Clark says
“Whatever may he the meaning of
P ra y> n g and prophesying, in re-
spect to the man, they have the
same meaning in respect to the
*' Paul savs verse t. • “He
that prophesieth speaketh unto men
to edification, exhortation and com-
fort.” So when a woman speaks
to the edification, exhortation and
com f ort of men, she is also prophe-

e.ess would frighten the timid. He

is not a Methodist. The
other passage of scripture eronious-
jy use( j 5 C al woman’s lips is in
Paul’s letter to Timothy. He says:
i i Let the woman learn in
with all subjection. But I suffer
not a woman to teach, nor to usurp
authority over the man, but to be
in silence.” x Tim. 2 :n-i2. “Let
the woman learn. T 5 When she
prophesies she is not learning, but
delivering a message for God—im¬
parting spiritual truth. The con¬
text shows that this passage also re¬
fers to married women. Read ver¬
ses 13-15. The silence enjoined
in this passage has no specific ref¬
erence to the church, or religious-
services, and may apply as well ti
the home circle and elsewhere, as
to the church. Then he says: ‘1
suffer not a woman to teach.’
Where? In the church, in the home,
in the school rooifi? The apcstlt
is silent. Take the whole passage,
perhaps, he can be better under¬
stood. “I suffer not a woman to
teach, nor usurp authority over the
man, but to be in silence.” In our
day, women do teach by the thous¬
ands, in Sunday schools, homes,
academies and colleges, and some
of them usurp authority over their
helpless husbands. Paul may have
had some faint glimpses of the
“New Woman.” Seriously, he 1
must be so interpreted as not to
contradict himself. In writing to
one of his co-workers, he says: “I
intreat thee, also, true yokefellow,
help those women who labored with
me in the gospel.” Phil. 4, 3.
Phebe, evidently a stranger to
the church at Rome, Paul highly
commends, declaring that she had
been a help to him and others.
Rom. 16 : 1-2. He also sends greet¬
ings to Priscilla and Aquila his
“helpers in Christ Jesus.” All
the churches of the gentiles, also,
gave their thanks. This husband
and wife seem to have been in the
evangelistic work. Rom, 16: 3-4.
Luke refers to the same couple.
Acts r8. 24-26. Paul spoke of oth¬
er women who labored with him in
the Lord. Rom. 16. 12.
Were they all silent?
Philip, the evangilist, had four
daughters who doubtless assisted
him in evangilstic work. Acts 21.
9 -
Anna, the prophetess, right in
the Temple, in the presence of the
infant Jesus, spoke to all there who
looked for redemption in him.
Luke 2 : 36-38. We find a woman
going out into the city after the
men and bringing them to Jesus.
John 4. 2S-30. Many believed on
account of the woman’s testimony.
John 4. 39. Many more believed
after she led them to the saviour to
hear the message from his own lips.
John 4. 42, 43. A soul winner in¬
deed. On the morning of the res¬
urrection woman w as the honored
messenger of God. Matt. 28. 5-8.
God himself, peaking said he would
put the women to talking in the
last days. Joel 2. 27-28. Peter
said they got at it on the day of
Penticost. Acts 2. 16-1S. This is
what t iey did on that day. There
were 120 including men and wom¬
en. Acts x. 14-15. By the last
days is meant the dispensation of
the Holy Ghost which began on
the day of Penticost and will con¬
tinue until Christ comes again.
Let us oppose woman’s work no
longer. Don’t make Paul one of
the strongest advocates of woman’s
work, contradict himself. If we
will impeach him by showing con¬
tradictory statements,we should set
him aside,rule out his evidence and
determine the matter on the testi-
mony of other witnesses. And fi-
nally, if we will persist in - holding
that Paul did not allow the women
to testify in his day, let us also per¬
sist in holding that God himself
said (Soo years before Christ came)
that the time would come when
women should speak under the
power of the Holy Ghost. Joel 2.
27-28. If Paul did teach that wom¬
an must forever hold her tongue,
(but he didn’t.) shall we obey him
or God?
If woman’s authority to tell
her experience and plead with dy¬
ing men to give themselves to God,
“be of men it will come to naught:
But if it be of God, ye cannot over
throw it; lest haply ye be found to
fight against God.” Acts 5 - 39 -
The Psalmist says : “Let every
thing that hath breath praise the
Lord.” Asa. 150:6. W, And C. Isay: D.

HOW TO APPLY MANURE.
Comparative Merits of Surface Manuring
and Plowing in Manure.
Elias A. Long learned a lesson in the
application of manure when a boy in
his father’s nursery. He tells the story,
as follows, iu American Gardening: Wo
purchased from a tannery a large pile
of compost, hair, ashes, lime and other
refuse, with enough bark in layers to
make all pile up well. In the winter we
drew this on land devoted to nursery
and other crops, usually plowing it mi-
tier iu the spring. Sometimes ou fall
plowed laud we would incorporate the
mixture with the soil, by the use of the
cultivator cr share harrow, in the
spring.
One of the things that vividly im
pressed me as we dug trees and plants
from soil thus manured was the way iu
which rootlets would lay hold of con¬
genial hits of plant food. The tufts and
felted knots of hair would be the attrac-
tion to a mass of small roots. This is
illustrated in the accompanying sketch,
in w-hieh a a a show 7 bunches of hair,
This thing v. 7 as scon not only in the case
of seedling and tree roots, but also iu
those of Btraw 7 berry plants, which lie
much nearer the surface.
A lesson to be drawn from this is
that the plowing in of manure as a
method of ajiplying it should not yield
to surface applications in any marked
degree. The avidity with which roots !
seek out and lay bold of particles of
manure in the case stated showed to me
that there can be no mistake in putting
the plant food right where it will be
needed. With the surface and appliea-
tion of manure in the fall and winter
there is often great loss of fertility
through escape by leaching and surface
drainage during thaws in the winter,
If it be drawn to the plat and be kept
in piles until just before spring plow- 1
iug or cultivating, such loss is uot ap-
preciable.
The question of the comparative mar-
its of surface manuring and the plow-

A LESSON IX MANURING.
iug in of manure may depend eomewlmt
on the crop aim It to plain in the case
of shallow rooted crops, like lettuce,
radishes, onions, strawberries, etc., that
the manure is not wanted at the same
level as with parsnips, cauliflower and
other deeper rooters. Then, again, sur-
face manuring may, a, in the case of
strawberries, serve an excellent purpose
aa a mulch in keeping the soil cool and
in preserving moisture.
Another thing, all crops do not need
the same amount of manure. It is a
poor plan, for instance, to be lavish in
ihe use of manure on potatoes and
then 6li ? ht ou oaions aud celer y-
Among dinS crops that do the better for high

DIVISION FENCES.
Cheaply Mad* tnd Effectively Used In Ohio
Foe Dividing; Fast urcs.
Waldo F. Brown, one of Ohio’s pro-
gressive farmers, believes that it adds
greatly to the value of a pasture to di¬
vide it into three parts. By this pl;.u
he changes the cows each week, so that
they will gO OU a fresh pasture eai U
Monday, and each lot will have two
weeks to grow for one week to h*
grazed. It is made to appear that these
division fences can be made very cheap¬
ly. Following is an illustrated descrip-
tion, originally submitted by Mr. Brown
to Country Gentleman:
We make division feuces with fine
plain wires—one a ribbon wire to show,
80 that they will not run into it, and
with IKlStiS , H , ap;trt We stretch
these wires perfectly tight with a rateh-
et, made to be used with a common
monkey wrench, ami then staple a light
paling—J L. inches thick and 3 inches
wide—every 10 feet. This keeps the
cows from spreading- the wires apart
crawling through. These ratchets
cost but 10 cents each and give perfect
control of the wires, as with a wrench
you can at any time take up the slack
in a wire, and ou level land a wire from
50 to 80 rods long can bo stretched.
In making this fence the end posts
must be set deep and thoroughly braced,
and then the staples used on tu° costs

bolted. The upper end is bolted to the

of rear bracing is that the strain of tli(j

lifting it up, as is the case with a prop

Why Bee* I>o Not Swarm.
There are various reasons why bees do
not swarm. Here are some of the rea¬
sons specified by Kansas Farmer:
Iu the first place, it is well know n
that the common or black bees do not
increase to such an extent under the
same conditions as do the Italian bees.
The honey season has also mneh to
do with it. Daring a scarcity of hon-

ling the swarming of Italian bees, but
they are more liable to swarm than
blacks. It is very important to have
beehives just tho right size, even if
they are made old box fashion. A very
large hive will never prodnee good re¬
sults any way you take it. Hivcg
