The bride look ed very charming attired in a gown of white crepe de chene and carried a bouquet of white roses. Miss Emma Wurdell, cousin of the groom, acted as bridesmaid and looked pretty dressed in white and carried pink roses. Mr. | George Siemon, brother of the bride, | acted as groomsman.

If he only knew how disap- he does--he would have some sym- pathy for me, I am sure. However, after several days rest, I have screw- ed up my courage to give him some more food for merriment. A man amused, is usually a happy man; for the time being at least, and health is said to follow laughter, and we should all be altruistic enough to contribute ta the happiness of our fellows, so I have concluded to write another let- happiness may be prolonged. He thinks my voiie is like thei voice that Eve listened to in the garden, to her own undoing. Alas! No; he coes me too much! honor ini the com- parison. My poor feeble voice is not to be mentioned on the same day: as that potential voice. That wooing voice has been the undoing of many a talented man, has brought. many a noble intellect down to dishonor, has brought about the ruin of, many a monarch and statesman. The list is long; its victims are without number Little wonder that poor Eve, -un- sophisticated as she was, and without worldly wisdom, succumbed to had been exposed to that persuasive voice, at that time, he might have had no Seriptural the wicked old head of the voice's owner, and "Auld Clootie" would have secured another victim. But it is not my voice, nor even like 'it; It has ever been used for evil, and never for. good. If I had a small fraction of its power I hope I should use it for a better end. He says that 'Scripture has been quoted to bolster up wrongdoing, but those doing so have some ulterior ob- ject in view." To be sure they have and it is asafe guess that anyone quoting Scripture to try to brock or impede great and needed reforms like Woman's Suffrage. has a like object in view. I am sure our friend will not come under this suspicion; but. he needs to be careful, for he is sailing on a taut towline, and very close to the wind. He says that where an unmistakable eommand is given, such as, "Thy de- sire shall be to thy husband and he shall rule over thee," it Should" be obeyed. It is no puzzle for me or "my great prototype" to answer this This can hardly be called a command but rather an admonition or exhorta- tion. But, even so, it should not be disregarded; and no one is doing so in giving the franchise to women This admonition clearly appliesi to do- mestic life. The husband should b> the head of the household, and rule therein, with reason, of course, as he should rule in all domestic affairs; and even then, we often find that the »*» put wemen are not asking for the right to rule over men. They are only. ask- ing that they be allowed, to take part along with men, in common council and to be the advisor and helpmate that an all-wise Creator clearly in- tended them to be. And in so doing. they will not transgress this exhorta- tion, or command, as our friend calls it.

He isj a true son of Adam, who, when, charg- ed with disobedience, unhesitatingly blamed his wife,--if he had had a mother, I suppose he blamed her. But the Master paid lit- tle heed to this pusilanimous excuse, and at once gave him 'his punishment. We have laws in black and) white. also unwritten laws, both are brokea at times, and the fact that it is in black and white does not make it per- fect, or otherwise, The breach of either is followed by punishment-- sometimes.

QUOD ERAT DEMONSTRANDUM Was there ever a reform passed that which was not opposed by able and talented men, till it: had to be passed finally ovér their heads and \in spite of their protests? But Mr. Payne proves nothing, seeing that all the evils that he speaks of have been going on, and gradually increasing for many generations, while men alone have been ruling; and it cannot be eharged up to Woman Suffrage, for the good reason that Woman Suffrage has not yet been brought into use. It only shows that men have not been ruling as. wisely as they might have done.. Let us hope that when they have the benefit of women's advice things will go better.
