If jealous feelings arise, which they will sometimes, we try to overcome them, instead of yielding to temptation; and our Heavenly Father helpsus with the comforting influences of His Holy Spirit, and shows us our duties as wives and mothers, and we try to do unto others as we would like to have them do unto us. We are surrounded with all the necessary comforts of life, and comfortable homes; we never have occasion to think that . our husbands are in bad company, or that they are in company that will bring shame and disgrace upon themselves or their families. Then Fask, what need has the outside world to trouble about us? We do not need their sympathy nor their help; if they will look after their own welfare, we will look after ours, and we know the Lord will help ns if we will do His will and keep His commandments and plurality of wives is one of them. And who is the being that would deprive me of that liberty of conscience, which my Father in Heaven has given unto me, and unto hundreds of my Mormon sisters. If we would go hand in hand with the wicked and unrighteous, they would like our society; but we will not, because we do not want to do so. We wish to raise our sons and daughters honorable men and women in the sight of God. I wish those honest-hearte- d ladies who think our lot is so hard had their freedom to the extent that we have: they would not think that we needed any pity. There are more of the world that are against us than there are for us; if the world has not learned this one fact, it is time they were beginning to learn it. We will not foster in our hearts the mammon of unrighteousness. The wicked may rage, and the people may imagine vain things against us, but our trust is in the Lord of Hosts. Sarah B.

IN ANSWER TO MRS. SCOTT. If we would be the children of Abraham, then ought we not to do the works of Abraham? I believe if it was right in the sight of God, in the early ages of the world, for men to have more than one wife, it is right tho God we serve is an unchangeable One. I ask, who in these last days would ever have thought of such a thing as a man, tinder he name of religion, having more than one wife, had not the Lord revealed it to him? Now, I have lived for many years in the to-da- order of plural marriage, and I am thankful to my Father in Heaven that He ever gave me a true understanding of that principle; it has many more advantages than disadvantages. If we will lay aside our selfish feelings, and seek for the Spirit of God to guide us, it is a light to our path all the day long. ..I would not change my position with any woman of the world, for I could do so if I chose; but I would not forfeit my right to that marriage relation with my husband for all the treasures earth can give, for they vanish with time, and we Mormon women are livins-fo- r eternity. ;T can , say truly that I am happy and-frem my feelings.
