If by a vote tb tills In or custody to a child was to be de termines, men ins motnsr equally with the father had ths right and should exercise the act of voting. If Inventions and dis coveries are enconrared throuirh the ballot. then woman's claim were equal to that of man.

This Is tha age of scepticism, and there Is In our day a kind of historical sksptlctsm which would causa us to break, down tbs headland of past honor. Bat, teannlng Into tbs condition of men or past ages, we nna mat Humanity has seldom eel up false views of men. In nature a thtng appears great by comparison, aad this may be ths principle by which ths grass men 01 tua past age nave ueea con ceived. Ia this country. If title be an evi dence of honor, our people are celebrated for It. And, ao far as tha clerical profes sion are consldsred, there are so many doctors of divinity that there I hardly left any divinity to be doctored. But, really, a a people, ws ars lacking In that eUmeat which asserts authority aver ladtvldnal will ws ars lacking la reverence. Bat, again, there Is no nation which ever admired laws la tbs abstract mors than we, whits our democratlo feelings chafe under personal authority. After all, honor Is provided for that whlct is ezceneui ana wormy, ana lr not mixea with th seed It ripens with ths har vest. No precious deed 1 lost, no precious word falls to tbs rrounJ. With us there waa an excess of honor, and ws were too much given to ascribe honor to men who hav mad soms lucky discovery. in ia couum 01 ntai principles mere persons become Insignificant, and honor are stripped like autumn leaves. ThennomaVs personality must baulk the way, tbo wheel of revolution turns on, ths low, strong In their moral faithfulness, arajlfted up, while ths great, unfaithful, will bs cruilftd. Th lecturer then sekl that Arnnnr1 the elements of true honor was lovaltr. nd its radical signification. U attachment to law. its wno nas no transcending regard that attracts him to his country msy be ens- Kcled In everything. In him all social ads are loosened, and be Is deal-morally rotten aod demoralised. The majesty of loyalty governs tbe Issue of the heart. On the battls-groand of life fortune and ruiai ot bitvucu uuwo. uut netu slain the shield of honor. To this, hswercr, w rnust add th fact of seN tic, a may may lire to nimseir. taking all worldly benefits, and giving nothing la return, till the dry-rot comes. The laurel does sometimes grow on dead stamp, bat never on human toad-stool. There are two kinds of selfishness that of Isolation and that of distribution. Ths former can give no honor ths latter Is ths ouiy ons wmen can. Banners Is another element, and that U of sacrifice. Thns tori. veto honor whkb flows from escutcheons aud blood, is not so great as that which had Its rise la the crucible of suffering. Speak Ing of thass hollow politicians wboVIde Into power On the popularity of heroes who sacrifice comfort, and even life for tbe wel fare ol the country, the lecturer said thy make gambling counters of lha nation's offloes, and of those hams who pompously atrut about with self conceit, he said tbey have not enough of genuine honor to make apecatis ror a grassuopper. ureal laugh ter and arwlaase. Mr. Chapln ssld there were four cissies who were untitled to honor archteyers. hero, martyr and the faithful those, who at every saennce laitutauy aiscaarge every obligation and falfll every daty, whether In dividuals or commanltlos, promptly and patiently.
