OUR GIRL MOTHER. Soon after I came to this city I made the acquaintance of a young girl at the hotel where I was bearding, and ascertained that she was a dressmaker and looking for work. She found work in a week or two and changed her boarding house for another on the west side. I mot her on the street some month later and had a little conversation with her. She told me she was greatly troubled and asked if I would visit her that evening, giving me her address. "When I went there she introduced me to her sister, a young woman about twenty years old, and the two then told ma their perplexity. Both girls were dependent entirely upon their own eier lions; and earned about five dollars a week each. Mary, the one to whom Lizzie had introduced me, was married a few months before, she said, and h husband had deserted her. The trouble w?.s that she was going to become a mother, and that absolute destitution seemed likely to be the result of it. They wanted my advice about trying to get rid of the child by abortion. They said that as soon as Mary's condition t houid be discovered in the establishment where they worked that she would be discharged ; and then again if the) fcaby was born, it would require care attention and money which they could not give it. Af.er talking the matter over for an hour it was decided to let nature take its course and fter the child was born to give it away. This was the best we could do. "We were all poor. I promised, however, such assistant e as 1 could give and so the thing was sstt'ed. I saw the girls frequently during the fall months and had many talks with them, and somehow all our talk hinged upon the baby. We found ourselves saving up such articles its we could spare from our private wardrobes to make clothing for it. After a while the baby had so grown upon us that a great perplexity arose. Sup pose it should be a girl, how were we to send the little angel out , of our sight to take the 6s.me risk in life that we had taken, deprived of mother-love and influence I Always when the sex of the child was spo ken of we would become silent and appre hensive. It would be easy enough to let a boy go; everything lavored a boy, and moreover I suppose it is as well to speak the truth our thought of a boy were em bittered by recollections of tho wrongs done us by the dominant sex and we were prepared to render it injustice for injustice. After a while Mary lost her position as was predicted. "Winter had come and the cost of living had increased. Lizzie could earn but five dollars a week and that would not pay rent and all the other expenses. I attempted to enlist tha interests of some ladies who might have helped the girls materially without feeling tho loss. But not one of them would contribute so mach as a penny without calling upon Mary to produce her marriage certificate. As she could not produce this, they not only refused to help her but heaped names upon her whose application to any woman, no matter how falien and degraded, has always aroused my bitterest wrath. Think of this 1 And then imagine if yoa can how many centuries of evolu ion it will take to make women out of creatures who in the face of this betrayed, deserted, destitute and suffering girl could ask anything but the privilege of .giving her as istanca and consolotion. We managed to do without their help. Four days ago Lizzie came to me beaming, but with the strangest expression of countenance. Thcugh jjjful,it was apprehensive and supplicating almost to abjectnees. The baby was born and it was a boy. 44 A great big boy," Lizzie said, "and the dar lingest creature she ever set eyes on; oh!" her voice trembled on the last words. I fully anderstand their import and frowned upon them. "He will have to go, Lizzie," I said. " After our experience with the charity of the world it will be madness for Mary to at'tempt to keep him." I braced myselt to sternness and Lizzie went away with a dreadful look on her voun place. But I promised to go there (hat evening, and I did go. Mary was lying in her poor, scantily fur.nishet bed, her glorious hair like sunshine upon the dingy pillows the only sunshine in that dreary room. There was something in tho faces of both eirls that was pleading and yet defiant. Lizzie uncovered the 'baby and handed him to me. My God I what a rush of feelings came over me. Give him away? I had reckoned without my host. A quick glance at Mary showed me :an expression of eyes like that of some tpoor hunted hound who had been so habitu ally robbed cf her young that fear of her loss had made her wildly apprehensive cf tthe human face. "We can never let this baby eo," I said Mary covered her face instantly; Lizzie's strong features broke up into the jojful -emotion of tears; and as for me, I took the little rosy human bundle and tat down on a rtrunk where I blubbered out loud, just as ong as I wanted to. 1 believe that baby weighs as much as twelve pounds, and such another darling precious, beautiful little angel I never saw. -Give him awayt 1 smile sardonically at the mere suggestion. But, ladies and gentlemen, here is somethin e for your consideration. That baby is an outlaw, and his mother is an outlaw. Society damns her. and the law of the land sanctions the damning. That baby as fin a bud of humanity as ever came in to this world, and his lovely young mother, the full equal of your own pampered and protected daughters, art condemned by every law in existence to crawl through life by underground pathways, weaving at every step a network of lies that must eventually prostitute them to a lower level than that for which their natural capacity fits them. More than this the time will come when the baby boy grown up and sat u rat ad in the opinions of the social world wüi turn fiercely upon the woman who hu Just passed through the tortures of hell for tarn, and ask her savagely now sne Oared brine bin into existence to be the

sport, the jest, the by word of his fellows;

and all this because a scoundrel exisveu dt whose baseness she wu betrayed and ruined. And yet M women have their rights." And this lie is ottered dav after day in face of the fact that we are defrauded even of the rights of motherhood; that our destinies, our dearest hop?, our most treasured lovt a, our hearts, our lives, our very souls are in the keeping and at the mercy of men whose narrow brains and villainous morals permit them to toy with us first and torture and desert us afterwards, leaving us to years of wretched concealment or open shame; eur babies those sacred lives within our lives, our right of motherhood, the most terrible and yet blessed bcon bestowed apen us, proving our deadliest reproach and crushing us to the blackest sins in the calendar can not crush men. Motherhood is above and beyond all law. The woman who risks her life to bring another life into the world has a right to the protection of every law and every influence tributary to that law. If she has the love and companionship of a husband, so much the better for us; society has the right to demand marriage before maternity or paternity. But when a woman who is basely betrayed dares face the world's frown, and with invitations to the crime of abortion flaunted before her in a hundred disguises, keeps true to her maternal instinct, and through physical sufferings that no man can ever know, and mental torment that no man and few women have ever dreamed of, brings her child living into the world, then she has the right to become the charge of society and the ward of the na tion. and not the dirt beneath the feet of conservative and respectable idiots and fa natics as she now is. CIIAPTEU II. Injthe Woman's World of January 13 there was an article headed "Uno instance. 1 have received a good many letters asking me about the two girls of whom the article was written, and several persons have sent me money for the relief of the young moth er. Send no more money, friends. It is not needed. Mary has gone where love, not money, guides the helm, and h9r baby has gone with her. On the ninth day after the little angel was born, Mary was taken with child-bed fever. She did not seem to be much sick and we felt no uneasiness. Being inexperi enced in sickness we failed to comprehend her dancer. But for all that there was no attention lacking that love could supply; and it is a comfort now to know that we satisfied every littlo wish cf hers as soon as she revealed it- And yet what insufferable pain in the thought that Ehe did heeitato to express even the slightest wish for any thin for fear of being too heavy a drag upon oui slender means! Ileticient, gentle andtell-tacrificingtothe last moment, she closed her sweet eyes upon u, leaving us with hearts strained to bursting in generous but impotent desires for her reuet and happiness. On the last day when, almost speechless from the exhaustion ot protracted fever, she turned her eyes tearchingly for her baby. Our hearts sank within us. ihe little one had been sick for a week. The beet milk we could get for him tailed to nourish hint. The landlady of the poor lodging -house. loving woman, had taken him to her own rooms, where he received unflagging atten tion. But at the time his young mother was locking for him with pitilu pleading face he was lying in his spotless shroud upon a pillow in lower apartment asleep never to wake gain in this world. She was trying to speak. With difficulty we made out her words: "If he could only go with ra.l ' she said and again, "I want my baby." "Do vou want him now, aearestr was asked. "1 want him always. I want to take him with me. He is mine. Oh! haven't earned at least this much out of lifo tho perpetual ownership f" my baby?" "Would you have him die Mary?' " Yes, yes; life is so hard I want to take him with me." My angel," one whispered, "your baby is an angel already. Dj vou want to seo him?" And then we brought him. More boau tiful In death than in lile, we laid his mar Die lace in the circle or his mothers arm. Tears came juickly, rolled over her white temples and rested like diamonds upon the shining gold of her uncoiled hair. In vain we wiped them away from her brimming eyes, iier young heart had Decomo the perennial fountain of these Symbols ot grie whose outflow was never to be checked in this world. And thus ehe died with tear-stained cheeks, the wreck of youth and beauty, and early blasted hope; the victim of man's wickedness and of society's criminal injus tice. We combed out her golden hair, leaving it in the freedom of natural beauty to stray over her pillow and pour itself in unccn fined waves a glittering cataract of molten gold down to the floor. The landlady out of her scant pittance bought lace-trimmed pillow-slips and a new white spread; and we found a white drees with dainty pink ribbons worn, no doubt, in some happy hour before the clouds fell upon her life And so we dressed her for the grave. A child, a dirty little street urchin to whom she had been kind, came with clear channels washed by tears down his dingy cheeks and brought a rose for her breast, lie look ed upon her cold form, he kissed her hand he touched the baby's little lace with his face, and went away shaken with sobs. That night there was a snowstorm. The heavens dropped a white mantle over the earth's blackness; and it seemed to us in the morning as if Mary's spirit freed from bonds of clay and liberated into such hap piness as to obliterate every previous grie had sent the snow as a symbol of her for giveness. Foolish as the thought might have been, it com tor ted us. But when as the day grew older the wind arore in all its furv and swirled the gutter ing and arrowy ice points into our faces, cutting like myriads of nettles, we felt tha' even the benediction of the wronged and ruined and dead girl was powerless in cov ering up such enormities as led her to her fate. I have never seen such a funeral as that, I hope never to see another such. Out on the road with two open spring-wagons, one containing Mary and her baby, the other the friends only four of us, the heart broken sister, the tender loving old woman whose seamed and riven face was broken in to such griet as added a score of years to her own three score, the boy weeping silent ly, and myself. These were all. It was the coldest day of the season. The wind blew a gale; the manes of the horses stood straight out, or beat and lashed their necks furiously, tohivering in every vein, our tears as they fell blistered our cheeks like fire. And when we came to the open grave we could hardly move from our seats, so tiff had our trembling limbs become. At last, while the coffin reposed upon its trestles above the grave, a word was spoken and the two dead faces were uncovered. 1 is an old custom, obsolete except among country people. But we were country rjeonle. all of us except the boy. Away in a neglected corner of the churchyard we aad obtained permlaaUa to bury our dead.

No costly tombs were uar.- Tree shivered

and creaked in the winter blast and dead spears of grass stood up from the snowcovered ground. It was here we took a ast fond look of our beautiful dead. "NY e had better have foregone the privilege. since feelings were born in that moment never to be obliterated. As the coffln lid was removed the wind caught up the long silken curls of our girlmother and blew them far out of their resting place. Rude hands but kind strove vainly to place them back. They would not remain in that dark hold; so beautiful, so sunshiny, so radiant with life and youth they refused to be buried, but made wild protests against the infamy that had done to death the bright creature who lay helpless there. With a cry that was simultaneous we turned from the grave, but looking back in stinctively, the last glimpse at the descend mg cofän revealed one long stray curl waving frantically from the closed lid and mak ing its deathless protest against death. O woman who readett these words, do vou not feel that the faded yo'ing face buried there was the face of your own daugher, and are you not ready to ttep from ycur social trammels with an undying pro test against the sex inequality that leaves ber a helpless dependent upon charity? A charity, it must be admitted, often nobly given and nobly sustained by noble men. liut how few men are noble compared with the hoEt of ignoble ones? And this limited nobie class are with us in tho belief of wo man's emancipation evsn from themselves. Are you willing to take sides with the brutal class who proclaim one law for the man and another law lor the woman? I have related the foregoing facts circumstantially for a purpose. I want to lay with George McDonald that "the true mother is she who numbers her children by the thousand." I will go further and aseertthatno woman has anv legitimate claim to motherhood who will not recogniza a wrontr done to the lowest and worst of life's children as wrong to her own child. With theee words I close. vi itius:. Minne Doli Tribune. 1 The need of regulation, the necessity ol machinery to carry on social life has led to code ot manners which by common con tent and common sense govern social life. In regard to the matter ia hand, the first and most fundamental rule is never to take people by surprise. Tcis is cast iron and inflexible. The reasons are obvious. How irksome it is to have company "surprise' one when the fall house clu&nisg has just begun and the parlor and ''beet room'' are torn ap: when John is down with the fever and baby with the whooping cough; when as sometimes happens U everybody the family treasury is empty and only a lonely nickel jingles forlornly against John's keys; or when you yourself are just ready to start away to some quiet resort to tpend your vacation and get the rest needed for another year's hard pulling. It is sare to tay that visitors who thus take people by surpriso are wished in perditkn a dozen times before they get away. Worse than these are the mercenary peo ple who come to your house, if you live in a place they want to visit, for the purpose of using it as a free hotel to save paying board bills. This is the principal reason whv relatives nave each other by the ears half the time. They presume upon each other's good nature After eivinc due weight to tho ties of consanguinity, the bare fact yet remains that a man is not un der special obligation to entertain, amuse, and support a fourth cousin who suddenly makes himself known, unless he desires to do so. The safe way for l elatives and all othe: pccple is to pay visits only when invited For all ordinary purposes of frieadthip, the short call is sufficient, and generally wei come, but the entertaining ot visitor, under one's own roof is a very different matter anu some m mir wmca reauiros an ouuav oi time, money and strenetn. lo go to a friend's door and demand these by coolly saying you have come to make a visit is no better than to ask him for a gut ofmon?: indeed one would often be glad to pay the money, if it were possible, and have the guest gone. If you are unexpectedly called to New York and want to see Aunt Sally, the right way is to go to a notel, and then send them word you are in the city, instead of taking a carriage at once and having yourself set down bag and baggage at Jure John smiths door, lhey may have a houseful already, or may have gone to boarding, or they may have taken lodgings where they have only one bed. Now it they want to visit with you, and if it is convenient for them to entertain you, they will carry you off in spite of every. thing, and nit ia not, they md have a pleasant chat with you, ask you to call, express regret at not being able to enter tain you, and leave you domiciled at your hotel upon your assurance that you will be comforts ble there. This is no slight and yoa have no reason to be offended. liettor a short, pleasant chat with vour friends than a forced visit which may be inopportune and irksome to them. It un able to pay hotel bills, it is better for one to stay at home until he is invited to pay a visit. There are weighty reasons for the rld say ing 'Short visits make long friends." If one does not overstay a reasonable or apapomted lime his friends will not be afraid at parting to aek him to come again and stay longer. This is especially true of those sensible guests who are able to amuse themselves a part of the time, and who are not constantly under foot demanding to be "entertained.' Better a short, pleas ant visit, with your departure regretted by your mends, than to stay longer and acci dentally hear them wondering "when will go."

The man who believes that the Jews are such a pack of dumbed fools, as to seriously entertain any such plan, should be shut up in an asylum for the feebleminded. We should be sorry to have so little common sense as to believe any such stuff as that. We would be afraid that we might wake up some fine day and find that we had been elected to the Texas Senate.

I SPRING MILXIXIBT. The first importations of spring millinery are bonnets of lustrous satin braids, sub stantial looking Milan straws, and the fine English split straws. These braids are all shown in their natural cream white tints. but the great bulk of the importations is colored straw bonnets, with a preference for red and brown shades, sue aas raspberry and the crushed strawberry red, pale leathercolor and the darker Havana or tobacco browns. Gold, silver and bronze braids are again used tor entire bonnets, and there are fancy straws of cream and leather col ors wrought with threads of braids of gilt OP silver' The osier bonnets made of rubI . . . . ber tubing and of coarse braid, introduced last cummer, are again seen. Chip bonnets are not largely imported, but are always worn by those who must have bonnets of very light weight.
