Number 28 * HOMIo^riRCLE ^ DEPARTJiiX T r T * f FRIENDS IN HEAVEN. A brown-haired, blue-eyed wee one, Grown weary and tired of piny, Climbed up on my knee to ask me In her simple, childish way: “Have you any friends in heaven, That you sometimes want to see?” Can you guess how the question thrilled me Like a minor melody? , * I thought, as I sat in the twilight, With the wee one on my knee, Of my little blue-eyed ^baby Whose summers numbered three; She went from my arms to heaven One springtime years ago, And left in my heart that sorrow * That only mothers know. I thought how the baby’s father Grew lonesome and longed to hold Once more to his breast our baby Witji hair ofy sunset gold. And one summer eve he left me To search for our baby of thrqe, And I know full well He found her, But he never came back to me. Do I ever want to see them? Oh ! child of the violet eyes, My heart is gone on.before me To the hills of Paradise. Some day I shall feel their kisses Drop balm on my weary heart, Mine only, and mine forever, « Though earth and heaven apart. —St. Louis Glbbo-Democrat. V a cheerful home for her husband. the young wife to blame? We think the fnult is further back. "Just as the twig is beut the tree’s incliued,” but the twig cannot bend itself, If it inclines in the wrong direction the fault must, bo in the hand which bends it. Every mother should teach her daughter just as she would de sire some other mother’s daugh ter taught that is to become the wife of her son. Give her, if you can, a knowledge of music, an'd other accomplishments within your reach, but with them give a practical knowledge of house keeping. Let her own hands knead the bread, make the but ter, wash, iron and mend, make beds and sweep, dress the chil dren, prepare breakfast, dinner and supper; and then you need not be ashamed to give her to the very best jn the land. She is fit ted for life; she will succeed; and if the future should find you alone in the world her husband will gladly welcome you to a home which you taught your daughter to make for him "The dearest spot ou earth.” J Away From Home, To a young man away from home, friendless and forlorn in a great city, the hours of peril are those between sunset aud bed time. The moon and stars see more evil in a single hour than the Sun in a whole day’s circuit. The poet’s vision of evening are all compact of tender and sooth- the following rep]y written uu ing images. It brings the wan-* derneath .' -Dear father, Ian dies who is contemplating mat rimony, with the advantages which leap year gives her, waB handed a testament by her fath er, with the leaf turned down at the following passage: "He who givet.h in marriage doeth well; but he who giveth not in marriage ^oeth better.” She immediately returned it with derer to his home, the child to its mother’s arms, and the ox to this stall and weary laborer to his rest. But to the tender hearted youth who is thrown up on the rocks of a pitiless city, and stands. "homeless among a a thousand homes,” the approach of evening brings with it an ach ing sense of loneliness and deso- L lation, which comes down on the spirit like darkness upon the earth. In this mood his beet im pulses become a snare to him, and he is led estray because he is social, affectionate, sympathetic, and warm hearted. If there be a young man thus circumstanced who is a reader of this depart- , ment, let us say to him that books are the friends of the friendless, and that a wisely se lected library is the home of the homeless. A taste for reading will always carry you to converse with those who will instruct you by their wisdom, and charm you by their wit, who soothe you when fretted, refresh you when weary, couneel you when per plexed, and sympathize with you at all times. In the middle ages evil spirits were driven away bv bell, book and candle. In this age we need but two of these ' agents, a good book and a candle One of our popular young la- content to do we’l; let thos better who can.” am do Home Accomplishments. "Accomplishments.” We like such sentiment, ai d we like, too a spirit that dares speak out for the right in this over-accomplish ed age. A woman who fails in her home fails in all. Home woman’s realm, given into her hands to regulate, govern and beautify. If she fails here she may look in vain for another kingdom; for she has failed in the only spot where she could have ultimately succeeded. She has laid down the jewels whi.ch God gave her to brighten and polish, and in their place finds nothing but dust and ashes. It is a conceded fact tl at there is no evil without a remedy, and it becomes us to inquire, where is the evil and what is the cure? A young girl loves devotedly. She takes the sabred name of wife, thoughtless of the responsi bilities whioh her position in volves. She marries with an honest desire to make her home a happy one, but not being clad in (he armor of a well-drilled housekeeper, she falls. Her .ac complishments lose their power; day by day she feels her utter unfitness for her station; until at Life’s Lessons. Whoever has any observation or experience in the matter, must have noticed what a tedious op eration learning to read almost always is, and were it not for the pliant mind of the child, it would be far more so. The brightest and easiest taught children will draw their words, make pauses where there are none, and blun der in various ways before they acquire the ability to repeat the words they have learned to form a sentence which has an intelli gent meaning to them. Muoh persevering plodding is required after that, before they can get the meaning of the story contain ed in one short pgge. Is not this true of the best of us in learning to read the stern lessons of life? Are we not all dull scholars when we come to interpret the meaning of the hard discipline of sorrow and care which falls to the lot of even the most favored? Do we not learn slowly, and often through great tribulation, the solemn teachings of life? And how many fail to catch it at all, to whom each day, and week, and year of their lives means no more than the disconnected words of the blundering scholar means to him. Happy are they who com prehend the true meaning of the chapter of life. A World Without Mothers. The court of the late Oscar II., of Sweden, was very democatic. The king mingled there freely with his subjects. A delegation of ladies of the kingdom who were calling upon the king one day aired many grievances as to domestic condi tions in Sweden. Husbands were selfish, children were unruly, ser vants would not obey, the cost of living was high, and so on. Final ly one lady who knew the king, said: "If I had the making of things in this world there’d be no house, keeping.” "Fortunately then, madame,” said the king, with his brightest smile, "you are not able to give us a woild without mothers.” Chairman S. G. McLendon, of the Georgia railroud commission, has gave out the following state ment : According to accident bulle tin No. 20, just issued by the in terstate commerce commission, which covers the three mobtlis ending December 31, 1007, it ap pears .that the total number of casualties was 20,458. Tho number killed, including passen gers and employees on duty, was 1,092, and the number injured was 19,300. These figures, al though smaller than for previous periods, look appalling. "But for the fact that the rail road commission of Georgia last fall instituted a most rigid sys tem of track inspection and stim ulated the railronds to unusual care in tho safety of their road beds, Georgia would have been a very large 'contributor to this list of kill ;d and injured. The cost of the railroad commission of Georgia is less than 1.J cent per annum per capita to the peo ple of Georgia. If the commis sion succeeded in nothing beyond guaranteeing safer tracks aud thereby greater safety to life, its cost to the people of Georgia is insignificantly small. The man who will grumble at paying li cents a year, even if he gets nothing but greater safety when he travels, is one who counts the cost to an absurd limit.” Tired nerves, with that "no ambition” feeling that Is commonly felt In spring or early summer, can be easily and quickly altered by, faking what Is known to drug gists everywhere as Dr. Shoop’s Restora tive.

We do desire to to tell them about one feature of this habit of concealing gold about the bouse, that they perhaps do not know about, and to warn them ot the consequeuces. There is a probability of your house burning down. A great many people think if the house burns down on their bag, of gold that they cau sift the ashes and get it again, and that the United States gov ernment will make it good to them. There was never a greater mistake good friend. If you have gold or silver hid about your house and the house burns down you may dig around in the ashes end finally feet every piece of your mon ey, but it will be almost absolutely worthless. If it is not too badly melted and stuck together the United States government will allow you 15 or 30 cents on the dollar. The reason we know this to be true we have recently seen it 'tried. A party brought in $12.^0 in dollars, halves and quarters that had been picked from the ashes of a building that had burned. The house was a small two room house. The coins were disfigured aud some of them stuck together. We sent them to Washing ton and got back in return the sum of #4.00 and some odd cents. In the letter of advice from the government at Washington we were advised that the same rule applies to.gold coin burned in a fire. Under these circumstances friends, we say it plainly but kindly, it is foolishness, absolute fool ishness to keep gold or silver about your homes, or paper money as to that matter, when you can deposit it in the Bank of Dallas and draw 5^% on it, and get it any time you may need it.
