It’s Wagon Wisdom that prompts a farmer to
select a Weber Wagop. He knows that the 61 years
experience in wagon building which stands behind
every wagon is a guarantee that when he buys a
Weber he buys the highest quality. Sixty-one years
of wagon building have resulted in the Weber wagon
of today, which, for correct design, excellence of
material and conscientious construction, stands with
out a peer — King of all farm wagons.

A Sermon to Husbands.
We are not a minister, or even
the son of a minister, so pardon
us if we make a dismal failure in
our first attempt to preach a ser
mon. You will find our text in
the bible. It is not necessary to
give the chapter and verse, but
look for it. In brief it is this:
Spend some of your evenings at
home with your wife and chil
dren. if you have an amiable,
gentle wife, surely yoiir home
must be a pleasant one, but if,
from increasing cares or other
reasons, she has grown fretful or
sullen, who knows but a littlo
more attention or kindness on
your part might do a great deal
towards the return of the amia
bility you so much admired in
her girlhood. If you would stay
at home oftener evenings, treat'
ing her with something of the old
tenderness, making her believe,
at least, that you are not wholly
indifferent to happiness, you
would soon see a change for the
better in your household.
She has not forgotten the time,
if you have, (not very long ago,
perhaps) when her society was
all you asked for to make the
long evenings pass delightfully
away. Loving you as she did,
she would have gone on through
life in the same quiet .way, con
tented and happy. But, alas, you
soon grew tired of the same room
evening after evening, the same
easy chair, and the saddest of all,
weary of the society of your wife
—impatient of the restraints of
home, longing for a change. So
you spend your evenings away
meeting many gay, companion
able fellows, who entertain you
with wit, song and wine, and you
fancy yourself delighted and
charmed. Perhaps there are
moments of reflection, when con
science seems whispering to you
of the pure, holy influences of
home which you have so reckless
ly and unfeelingly cast away
from you. Your lonely wife sits
by the fireside, watching and
waiting for your return through
the hours that drag 1 slowly along,
listening eagerly to every foot
fall, starting at every sound,
fearing, Bhe knows not what, yet
conscious always of the weary
heartache that seems wearing
her life away.
Evening after evening she
watches your preparations for
departure, hoping, meanwhile,
you will relent and stay at home
with her. But you hastily don
your hat and coat, turning your
back resolutely towards her, fear
ing to encounter that gaze of
wistful entreaty, for you know
she is watching you, with tears
silently rolling down her pale
cheeks. You know it, still you
do not think best to notice it, for
you dislike a scene. Tears annoy
you exceedingly, so you close the
door, perhaps with a bang, try
ing hard to feel very indignant
towards her for daring to weep,
even behind your back. So the
lonely wife brushes away tho
falling tears, and sits down with
bitterness in her heart, to com
pare the last years of her mar-

ried life to those first ones, made
so bright and happy by her hus
band’s love and presence. Some
times softer feelings fill her heart,
and she dreams of that dear old
home she left for this one—the
home that sheltered her child
hood and youth; and as she
thinks of her beloved parents,
her brothers and sisters, the
light, the warmth and love in
the old homestead, no wonder
she bows her head and weeps by
her lonely fireside, like a grieved,
homesick child. Of course no
husbands in this community aot
iq this manner; if they did we
would suggest that their wives
read to them this sermon as so
near .the beginning of a new year
is a food time to begin a change.
A Great Evil.
Our race groans under evils,
and carries burdens heavy to be
borne.. Some of these may be
traced back to the first sin, and
are beyond our control; but most
of them are of our own produc
ing, and may be arrested by a
resolute act of the will, or by
aids which come from other sour
ces.
Two evils now fill the land and
world which are of human au
thority. One of these is alcoholic
drinks and the other is tobacco.
Of the latter we will say a few
words. This has grown and over
spread the nations of the earth
till now it challenges observation,
reflection, and the exercise of
enlighten conscience while look'
ing the factB in the face. Such
is its extent that many millions
bf acres are occupied in its
growth, producing millions of
tons annually and costing the hu
man race fifteen thousand mil
lions of dollars. How appalling
such a state of things while want
and suffering are all around us.
Yet this enormous expenditure
is entirely useless. No one claims
that he is the better for the use
of tobacco in any form. It is a
mere habit, innocently formed,
and, [.while at first perhaps (
pleasure, has grown to be a mas
ter and tyrant.
Not only this, but it is an of
fensive, filthy habit, finding no
place in the church, in the par
lor, or elsewhere, as a high or
der of society meets and indulges
in exercises which the higher na
ture craves.
Multitudes using it are asham
ed of the fruits of it, and would
be glad to be rid of it if they
knew how to break its enchant
ment. But this is not all, or ev
eu the worst of it. It is injurious
to health and when taken to ex
cess operates as of a poisonous
nature weakening the system
and leading to premature death
Such evjls, together with its
enormous expenditure, ought to
make sober, reflecting, conscien
tious men consider whether it
can be right to continue such a
habit as this.
A Gentleman of Leisure.
There are very few grown men
or even “stout boys,” in this
country who have any pride in
being out of business. Occa
sionally one is found, however,
and when found he is worth male
ing a note of. We ran across a
genuine specimen the other day
or, rather, he ran against us—
emphatically against us—against
our feelings, against onr judg
ment, against our sympathy, but
not against^our pity. We did
pity him, and that was the ex
tent of our recognition. He was
dressed faultlessly—that is, if
the extreme of latter day fashion
can be called faultless; he had
beautiful white hands and teeth,
his hair was parted in tho mid
dle, his downy mustache adroitly
curled, a gold mounted eye-glass
dangled from a buttou hole of his
vest, and a “nobby” little walk
ing stick was twisted in his be-
jeweled lady lingers. He was
proud to sav that he was a “gen
tleman of leisure.” We inferred
as much before he said it. What
else could have been inferred?
What earthly use could the mor
tal thing be put to? Physical
force he had not; his mind was
as vacant as an exhausted re
ceiver; and he seemed to have
no excuse for living except to ad
vertise some tailoring establish
ment. It is something to the
credit of this country that such
specimens of the genus homo are
rare. We can only wish that
they were so rare that circus men
would be induced to cage them
with their monkeys; though The
monkeys would be apt to protest
against the companionship.

Dr. Hartman's idea Is that a oatarrh

The New Year.
We are standing at the threshold
of the New Yoar. How many of us
are satisfied with what wo havodono
during the past year? How many
are pleased with what lias been left
undone? Ts there a reader of The
New Era who has done all the good
£|iat he could, to all the people he
could, at every opportunity that ho
had?
Did you say a few kind words and
do a few noble deeds in the old year?
Then double tho number In tho New,
Did you visit the sick and administer
to the widow and orphan occasional
ly during the old year? Then you
should do so far oftener during tho
now one.
Any one who spoke an unkind
word or did an unkind act during
the past year will surely make all
possible amends now and resolve
never to do so again.
Alas at the bright hopes and antici
pations we had a year ago, now lying
dead with tho good eld year which
has just passed I The words we
might have said which wo never
uttered, the deeds wo might have
done which wo left undone, the ones
which we might have made happior
who are now gone from us forever;
these things,when wo think on tnoin,
cause us to be sad because we might
have done so much while so little
was accomplished. Rut wo are not
of that number who mourn unceas
ingly over what “might have been.”
With a smile and a resolution un
shaken, we face the Now Year, what-
ev6r it may bring to us, saying:
“Ring out the old, ring In the new;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.”
Yes, and we will bo true, truer, at
least, than we have ever been before.
Truer to friend, to loved ones, and
self, to mankind and duty.
Father Time, help us to say and do
the word and act that It is fitting for
us to say and do. Help us to learn
from past experiences to leave unsaid
and undone the things which it were
better not to say and do.
Help us to keep from making the
mistakes and doing the wrongs In
the future that we have made and
done in the past. Help us to be a
little better, a little truer, a little
purer, a little kinder, aud a little
moro earnest, concentrated, and per
severing in the Now Yoar. Success
only comes by long, continued, and
conscientious work, but give us
health, energy, and determination to
do a man’s part and to do it as a man
should.
Should tho summons come before
much shall have houn done, let us be
able to look into out own hearts with
a clear conscience and say: “I did
tlie best that I could while 1 was
here, some one has been made a little
happier and better, none have been
worso or sad for anything that I have
done or left nndono, with no regrets
for tho past nor fears for the future,
I submit, willingly, to His will.”
