d as it is, must be regarded as a minor evil. The mischief extends beyond her. The tone and framework of society as it came from the Maker's hands are altered, damaged, and deteriorated. From the veil there flows this double injury. The bright, refining, softening influence of woman is withdrawn from the outer world, and social life, wanting the gracious influences of the female sex, becomes, as we see throughout Moslem lands, forced, hard, unnatural, and morose. Moreover, the Mohammedan nations, for all purposes of common elevation and for all efforts of philanthropy and liberty, are (as they live in public and beyond the inner recesses of their homes) but a truncated and imperfect exhibition of humanity. They are wanting in one of its constituent parts, the better half, the humanizing and the softening element. And it would be against the nature of things to suppose that the body, thus shorn and mutilated, can possess in itself the virtue and power of progress, reform, and elevation.  ITSELF FROM THIS UNNATURAL REGULATION SAD AS IT IS MUST BE REGARDED AS A MINOR EVIL A MISCHIEF EXTENDS BEYOND HER THE TONE AND FRAMEWORK OF SOCIETY AS IT CAME FROM THE MAKER'S HANDS ARE ALTERED DAMAGED AND DETERIORATED FROM THE VEIL THERE FLOWS HIS DOUBLE INJURY THE BRIGHT REFINING SOFTENING INFLUENCE OF WOMAN IS WITHDRAWN FROM THE OUTER WORLD AND SOCIAL LIFE WANTING THE GRACIOUS INFLUENCES OF THE FEMALE SEX BECOMES AS WE SEE THROUGHOUT MOSLEM LANDS FORCED HARD UNNATURAL AND MOROSE MOREOVER THE MOHAMMEDAN NATIONS FOR ALL PURPOSES OF COMMON ELEVATION AND FOR ALL EFFORTS OF PHILANTHROPY AND LIBERTY ARE AS THEY LIVE IN PUBLIC AND BEYOND THE INNERVICES OF THEIR HOMES BUT A TRUNCATED AND IMPERFECT EXHIBITION OF HUMANITY THEY ARE WANTING IN ONE OF ITS CONSTITUENT PARTS THE BETTER HALF THE HUMANISING AND THE SOFTENING ELEMENT AND IT WOULD BE AGAINST THE NATURE OF THINGS WHO SUPPOSE THAT THE BODY THUS SHORN AND MUTILATED COMPOSES IN ITSELF THE VIRTUE AND POWER OF PROGRESS REFORM AND ELEVATION
