The mother who allows atui sulks to overshadow the l who allows herself to be moody"|JAl discontented, fails in a chief duty places a handicap on her husband and children in the race of life. • 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 Q RIIQIWCCQ PPPnOT wilt such a girl leave then only after a heart my But a girl who is at homJn! the table and late bed tin love that bqtne. And if i not love the home of her gr_ she will love uo other. She wm K anywhere foranything. Homewil. 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. People Will Talk. Yes, people will talk; The saying is true. They talk about mo And they talk about you. If we go to tlie opera, Someone will say, We should go to church And learn how to pray. If we go to church And offer up prayers, They eay we are hypocrite, And putting on aira.
