Look over your list of friends and
acquaintances and note their
course. Did you not find on ex
amination that those who today are
men of influence and honor, were
the youths who made the most of
their valuable time; turning it to
good account? And on the other
hand do you not find those who
stood at the corners with a cigar or
pipe in their mouths, went from
bad to worse, from worse to ruin?
Mother.
A loving, good mother is a treas
ure above all others of an earthly
nature, as she never feels any sac
rifice too great, any anguish too
keen, any shame so dreadful, any
fate so overwhelmingly terrible, as
totrausend the endurance or crush
the power of a mother’s love. Mrs.
Wilson says, and truly she spoke,
that “under an invincible inspira
tion, when danger threatens her
darlings, she knows no self dis
grace, death affrights her not, she
extends her arm to arrest every ap
proach, offers her own breast as a
shield against darts, bullets, sword
thrusts, and counts it a privilege to
lay down tier life in defense of those
loved ones.’’ O, loyalty, supreme,
sublime, immortal! Thy name is
mother's love. Her very existence
is interwoven with her children,
their counsellor, comforter and
guide; therefore we should highly
prize and sacredly cherish that val
uable jewtl, a good mother. 'Phis
world is so dreary when we are be
reft of mother, yet so few appre
ciate her as we should, for what is
home without a mother?
Woman.
Woman, wherever found, is the
same kind, civil, obliging, tender,
being-inclined to be gay and cheer
ful but timerous and modest
'There is in every woman’s heart
a spark of heavenly fire which
beams, and blazes in the hour ot
adversity, and men can be great
when occasion call. In little duties
women fill their sphere, narrow
cares that cluster round the hearth.
She is the beautiful mosaic arch
in the common home; the every
day home where men entertain
angels unawares and where she
smoothes to placid peace the rough
and rugged places in the highways
of existence. If taken in the ab
stract, woman is superior to man in
this, i. e-, that pain and anguish,
grief and sorrow, affliction and
poverty, are but stepping stones on
which she climbs above the nariow
sphere which he calls life and “she
it is who is last at the cross and
earliest at the grave.” While her
heart is loyal to home, love and
duty, her head often gets light as
air and by reason of conflicting cir
cumstances she is easily influenced
and led astray.
Fashion, that invidious siren, is
one of the chief tempters and but
very few women can resist her art
less caprices.
’Tis said that satan employed
Fashion to assist him in the down
fall of the human race aud perhaps
the aphorism is correct for this
earthly idol is worshipped iti many
homes, and if the love of money is
the root of all evil, the loveof dress
is the main trunk of the, tree of ex
travagance which is too often
wrecked in the tempest of bank
ruptcy.
Our Girls.,
There are just two things that
will keep girls straight at the age
when they begin to think of long
dresses, and beaux. One is plain
clothes and the Ptherishome duties.
The girls we see making fools of
themselves are almost invariably
overdressed. They wear duds that
women of thirty should hesitate
about wearing.
A little girl with too many and
too costly clothes on her back gets
self conscious and vain and loves
admiration —and you grown-ups
know the next step. A simple,
pune-bearted girl who has a place
in the home, home work and home
duties, has her heart there, and no

mean nothing to such a woman,
and if she is respectable, she will
only lack the opportunity to be a
bad woman, and is good only
through circumstances or by the
necessity of an ugly face. She will
curse any man she marries.
The mothers of this town who
are responsible for the girls who ga4
oti the streets should stop and thitfllt
what they are doing. These girls
are no longer children. They are
at an impressionable age. ‘ Where
will you have their impressions
come from—from the riff-raff of the
streets, or from home? It is for
the mothers of this town to settle
the question.
