In every large city throughout the world thousands of women are so set

aside as outcasts from decent society that it is considered an

In every large city throughout the world thousands of women are so set
aside as outcasts from decent society that it is considered an
impropriety to speak the very word which designates them. Lecky calls
this type of woman 'the most mournful and the most awful figure in
history': he says that 'she remains, while creeds and civilizations rise
and fall, the eternal sacrifice of humanity, blasted for the sins of the
people.' But evils so old that they are imbedded in man"s earliest
history have been known to sway before an enlightened public opinion and
in the end to give way to a growing conscience, which regards them first
as a moral affront and at length as an utter impossibility. Thus the
generation just before us, our own fathers, uprooted the enormous upas
of slavery, 'the tree that was literally as old as the race of man,'
although slavery doubtless had its beginnings in the captives of man"s
earliest warfare, even as this existing evil thus originated.
