Anti-Suffrage Arguments ) . At tbo recent Congrensionl hearing - ing in VVaslungton upon Woman Suffrage Mrs. Emily P. BisHoll road a paper in oppoaition in which tbo following argument was made. "Tbo Huffrago movement must bo against tbo opinions of moat of our soy , Hinco it has boon pushed for fifty years and still remains a mi nority movement. In these fifty yeais every other woman's mcvo meut really dumred by women has BU9oeodod. Tlio educational move ment is a magnificent success. The movement for property rights Is au successful that even married women new have more rights than marrieu men. Tbo entrance of women into all cooupatioiiti and professions has been so great that now out of a pos sible 309 occupations , over 300 have boon oonqukrcd for our sex. " 1 woudoi if the "Antis" oven Btop to think that they have fought against every one of those steps in the progress of women from learn ing to road and write to casting a ballot , ? The many privileges and " equitable laws which"Mra. . Bissell glorioB in calling attention to , have , without exception , boon brought about by the persistent efforta of tbo Woman HuffrogiHts. It ia a matter of history with what ridicule Mary Lyon's first attempts to secure tbo education of women wore received , not only by the mats of men , but by tbo mass of women as well. well.When When Vassar College was founded , Mrs. Lnoinda II. Stone of Kalamazoo , Mich , tclla of hearing the "AutiB" , women of intelligence and cultivation , who voiced tbe general feeling , say : "The more fact of ita being called a' collage for women' ia enough to condemn it. Wo may bo euro tbat no refined Christian mother will over send her daughter to a Vassar College. " When a man in Saeo , Maine , lirat employed a saleswoman , tbo antist remonstrated earnestly with him on the sin of which he was guilty in placing a young woman in a position of Buch "publicity. " When Lucy Stone sought to secure for married women the right to their own properly , the "Antis" asked with acorn. "Do you think I would .give myself when I would not give my property ? " In entering all tbuho other lines of activity , all tbat wan necessary was to find some women brave enough to withstand tbo ridicule and some men brnvo enough to employ her , or some college brave enough to open its doors which furnished the entering wodgo. It is very manifest to any thinking person why the ballot is the last right to bo obtained for women. Had it been necessary to obtain the consent of the .masses , wo should not to day have women lawyers , ministers and doctors , or the im. proved property rights for womon. ELNOBA. M , BAUCOOK , Rev. E. Edwards , pastor of the English Baptist Church at Alinors- villo , Pa. , when sufEtuiug with rheumatism , was advised to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. He says : " A few applications of thin liniment proved of a great service to mo. It subdued tbo inflamma tion and relieved tbo pain. Should any sufferer profit by giving Pain Balm a trial it will pleas me. " For wale by all druggist , Correspondence. ttcorfcctown.
