N'iink Si cn. lllf l.li.'l WlMlKHI. I Hy I. toy t iiok, the Ten nei-ce (Mailin l Wherever we look on the workb of mediaeval a rt, we see numberless con ceptions of the Madonna and child. No two of them may be alike y.-it they all portray the painters ideal of pure maternity and joyous innocence Mary may boa Dutch blonde, or an Italian brunette, or even a riard German housewife of the old .school: but, plain or beautiful, slui is always honest, clear-eyed, placid content. And. the child the infant llenules, of tiie Christian faith, he who must cleanse the Augaon stables of the world, the wrestler the serpent strangle!', the hc:r of intinite potentialities lies trying with tho breast of his mother. How uUerly human it all is! Tho hrid of God is a Syrian peasent girl; the son of God. help'.ens, naked infant. How supremely happy, too, she appears, as frhe ga.es calmly down into the eyes of her hoy! What joy is t here Hue that of a molher? Joseph is not always present, and, when he is, it is only as a decent accessory. Helooks awkward. His ofliee. appears to have ceased. Usually, if not always, there is a look in his f.ic; expressive, of deep thoi..Tht, as one who would say, "This is the man-Christ who is born to redeem the race, and set a perfect example for all men and women to follow.' Yet Ihere seems to be a doubt in his mind as to tho conception, the beginning, the great mystery. The artist never Knows exactly how or where lb pose him. Tho child, however, is an obvious nec essity, but holds a secondary place. Mary is the centre. All eyes turn to her. n a thousand canvasses she stands on the saintly lype of the glorifed human mother. As tho ages proceed our ideals must either advance or retrograde. There is no middle position. The Roman church removed the Gods for hor saint, and substituted the Virgin for lonn Dea. iJut, as Paganism e-ave way to Christianity, so the mystical theology of nineteen centuries is rapidly vanishing under the firm light of modern scientific research. What is false will be aban doned. The time has come when the Virgin must be respected und revered for the great good which she accomp lished by bringing the grand m;in Chri&t into the world, and henceforth all mothers must look to her as otter ing the noblest possible example for them to follow and imitate, in order that they, too, may bring into the world pure and lovable children, worthy T being called the images of God. Thers are in our country three mil lion wives at least, and unless poverty has compelled, thousands of their chil dren havo i.ever known their mother's breasts. Three million women, all vowed to the duties of maternity, and tho greater number of them deficient in nourishment and its elementary re quirements. And why? Because they have undergone no kind of preparatot y training; because they are ignorant of themselves and of t heir duties; because too frequently, they wero wedded from sordid motives and to unsuitable men; because when love should have entered as a God, he came as a beast. Hence, the untold wretchedness of their love less lives, ttie daily miseries that des troy their homes; to say nothing of shameless adulteries wide-spread prostitution, loathsome diseases, and early deaths. Our law courts reveal but a very small fraction of the exist ing social corruption. Could wo see the whole at once, we should recoil with horror at the sight. Through out all nature, reproduction as tho highest functions are more or less subsidiary. Maternity is thus the supreme effort of the supreme organ ism, neither to be undertaken lightly or without forethought. Yet the mothers of our marriageable girls have rarely given their daughters anv infor mation un to sexual relations. Pru dishnets or false modesty restrains. Consequently, their knowledge, ac quired by experience, often come too late to n event unhappy rasults. The same girl may not study physiology. They mut not learn how they were produced, and how they are formed. They are thus a ready prey of all who can take advantage of their ignorance. The period arrives when the girl, young, fair, innocent, but intensely ignorant of all she ougnt to know, is thrown by conventional marriage into the arms of a man who whose habits and thoughts have nothing in common I with hr.

Lovely and innocent as she may he, she is not the tyuical mother, nor is her boy the Christ. Cyris never produced our ideal. In that ignorant and despotic region she could not h ive exist jd. Only poets and naintei-s h ive had occasional glimpses at her. The typical mother can neither be a slave nor a genitrix of slaves. She is the free -the perfect women, who h.-s b v n embraced ty the divine man. All that substracts from the freedom of woman hinders her developement, and therefore lessens her value hj h wife and a mother. For this reason we do not cease to ;id vocato the necess ity of equal rights and equal law? for the sexes before society can poss b;y imorove in purity and in hap:ine-s. and before woman can rise to her true dignity. Although the duties of men and women differ, tlie status of both in the eyes of the law and of society should be the same, and nothing should be required of the one which is not also demanded of the other. For in stance, let men continue to regard chastity as indispensable in women, but let woman also require the same from man. And let her, if modest, re gard as a profound insult a proposal from any one whoso delicacy and power of appreciating her purity have been destroyed by contact with lust arid in famy. Too long has women been en slaved, the toy und victim of man. Hut the dawn of her emancipation has come. A few have aireidy seen the light. The bunds which enswathed woman's faculties are being loosened: may tliey soon drop off! Then we shall see her lovelier than anything sculptured by Grecian chisel, calm browed as Athene, majectic as Hebe, lightlimed and stiong of mind, joyous, serene, loya!, true of heart and purpose irradiated with a wL-e intelligence, despising sham and frivolities, tender with a woman's swoetst tenderness, loving simpie t-uth a noble mother raised to a higher peJestal. This is the true iJe A woman, capable, too. of realization This is tho true mate of the true man, and worthv "f hem-in the World's heroes.
