WOOD ft SONS, Seedsmen, • Richmond, Va. yg—ix- — A man thinks he knows it all, until a woman begins to enlighten him. o o o There is more sunshine in life to the minute than there is misery to the mile. But after all, it is just the way you look at it. o o o T.i's world is but the stepping stone of an immortal life. Every action of our life touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity. ooo Let the path of life start whence it mav, and let the wav be steep and thorny as it must, there are sunny fields far up the heights for those who have faith and resolution to climb them ooo J The past is fixed. No tears can wash away its facts. We should waste no regrets u|»on it; but, from the wisdom its very sins have taught us, we should start afresh on the races. ooo What to jforget. If you would increase your happiness and prolong your life, forget youi neighbor’s faults. Forget nil the slan der you ever heard. Forget the temp tations. Forget the faultfinding, and only remember the good points which make you fond of them. Forget all personal quarrels or histories you may have heard by accident, and which if repeated, would seem a thousand times worse than they are. Blot out, as far as possible, all the disagreeableness of life; they will come, but will ouly grow larger when you remember them, and the constant thought of the acts of meanness, or worse still, malice, will only tend to make you more familiar with them. Obliterate everything dis agreeable from yesterday, start out with a clean sheet today, and write up ■on it for sweet memory's sake only those thing* which are lovely and lov able. ooo , Woman And Home. The chief anxiety is not that woman have other rights accorded her, but that she, by the grace of God, rise up to the appreciation of the glorious rights she already possesses. First, she has the right to make home happy. That realm no one has ever disputed with her. Your abode may be humble, but you can., by vour faith in God and your cheerfulness of demeanor, gild it with splendors such as an upholsterer’s hand never yet kindlel. There are abodes in every city—humble, two stories, four plain, unpapered rooms, undesirable neighborhood, and yet there is a man wh > would die on the thresh old rather than surrender. Why? It is home. Whenever he thinks of it, he seas angels of God hovering around it. The ludders of heaven are let down to that house. Over the child’s rough crib there are the chantings of angels as those that broke over Bethelhem. It is home. These children may come up after awhile, anl they may win high position, anl they may have an affluent residence, but they will not until their dying day forget that humble roof un der which their father rested, and their mother sang, and their sisters played. Oh, if you would gather up all tender memories, all the lights and shades of the heart, all banquetings and reun ions. all filial, fraternal, paternal and eonjugal affections, and you had cnly just four letters with depth and length and breadth and magnitude and eterni ty of meaning you would, with stream ing eyes, and trembling voice, and agitatek hands, write it out in those four living capitals, H-O-M-E. ooo It takes but a little push to start a stone rollinz down hill, and many a heavy-hearted human being has been sent into the depths because of a push in the wrong direction. It may be because it is easier to'push than to pull that we move along with the crowd, saying inwardly, "each one for him self,” and scarce think it worth while to lend a helping hand where it is most nee lei. A Woman’s Essay on Man, A boy can sit still on a sled six inches Square, tied to a sleigh moving eight miles an hour; but couldn’t sit still on| a sofa five minutes for a dollar. A man will sit on an inch edge of a board and talk politics for three hours; put him in a church pew for forty minutes, gets nervous, twists and turns, and goes to sleep. A man will pouch his cheeks with filthy tobacco, juice runs down to fiis chin, feels good; but a hair in his butter kills him. He stays out till mid night, wife don’t know where he is,' comes home when he pleases, but if a meal is not ready just on time, puts, frowns, and savs unpretty things. Evidently man is a strange animal Gets full, beastly drunk, imagines he’s rich, a great man, bets on the loosing horse, gose broke, quarrels, fights, lands in jail, eyes dressed for Easter, face frescoed and morajs depraved yet he is “Lord of all creation and monarch of all he surveys.” Strange animal, this man. ooo The Mother’s Spirit. When the mother’s spirit is impa tient, petulent, and firey, can she ex pect her children to be gentle? When she governs by shouting, scolding, and threatening, can Bhe expect them to speak gently to one another, or even to herself? Will she not see in the car riage and demeanor of her children a reflection of her own spirit and life? If a mother is worldlvminded and fond of ornamental dress and show, can she ex pect her family to grow up in humility? If the mother is in the habit, in her common conversation, of coloring facts, of exaggerating what she hears and relates, can she expect her children to grow u p with a love and reverence for the truth? The tampers and dispositions of parents, whether good or bad, whether lovely or hateful, make such impres sions on the souIb of their children that they are like seeds implanted within them, which shall take root and grow, and from part of their future charact er. Many an angry, fretful, passionate mother Is propogatlng these evils in her children; she does not wish to do so; she does not intend to do so. and she is frequently trying to chock these un happy tempers when she sees them springing up in her children: but so long a« she herself manifests these tempers she is transmitting them to her offspring by a natural law. She is breathing into them her own unchrist ian smrit. They are living in an at mosphere inf.’cted with fnoral deprav ity. They are taught to be impatient and passonate by example. And some time the mothet will try to beat out of them with tho rod what she is daily infusing into them with her own spirit WORK Augusta, Ga.
