Good Morning Life!
Good morning Life—and all
Things glad and beautiful
My pockets nothing hold
But he that owns the gold,
The Sun, is my great friend —
His spending has no end.
Hail to the morning sky,
Which bright clouds measure high;
Hail to you, birds whose throats
Would number leaves by notes;
Hail to you, shady bowers,
And you, green fields of flowers.
Hail to you, woman fair,
That makes a show so rare
In cloth as white as milk —
Be’t calico or silk;
Good morning, Life —and all
Things glad and beautiful.
—Exchange.
Home-Making and Home-Makers
To the true man or woman
there can be nothing more agree
able on earth than the business of
home-making; and all who are not
home-making miss the best part
of their mission in life. Whoever
makes a home in the best sense of
the word, is a real benefactor to
the race; for everv true home is
the abode of joy, peace and hap
piness to those who share it, and
exerts an influence that is incalcul
able for the amelioration of the
whole human family. Many a
prodigal has been led by the
thoughts of home, and the makers
of his own particular home, to re
pent of his sins and to change his
course of life; and many an unfor
tunate one has been saved in the
evil from suicide, or worse,
by the tender recollections of
home, of a fond mother’s prayers,
an indulgent father’s councils, or
a sister’s or a brother’s tenderness.
Yes, whoever helps to make a
true home confers a benefit on
mankind that no man can fully
estimate. Indeed, the influence
of the true home is incalculable,
and reaches many even that never
enter its inner circle. Simply to
get a glimpse of it is to receive an
impulse for better things, to ob
tain a more exalted view of life,
and to feel an excess of faith in
God and the immortality of the
human soul, it is like a vision of
the glories of the New' Jerusalem,
and the everlasting habitations,
and no one can be wholly bad w ho
has seen such things. — Ex.
