Is it right for the mother of a family
of small children to have to leave them
alone, as they so often do, to go out to
scrub and wash to earn a miserable
livelihood for herself and them, and
alas - eften also for him who promised
to cherish and protect her for life, but
does not do it? It is a stain and dis
grace upon, the manhood of this country
that they take so little interest in this
unprotected class of helpless ones. They
are very merciful some ways; a man
cannot drive his horse without a shoe,
but he may let his wife and children go
barefooted without fear of interference;
he must not overwork or half starve his
beast, without being justly amentable
to the law; but his wife and children
may be over worked and underfed, and
half dressed, and its nobody’s business
— they “must look out for themselves.”
There are more neglected woman and
children right here in this Christian
country than we like to own to.

“Never put your arm through the
handle of a jug,” is a piece of advice
given by an exchange to the young
ladies. Most of them ought to know
what it means without further expla
nation. A woman is never so foolish
as when the hopes to reform a man
after marriage. “He loves me,” she
trustingly says, and because her own
love is pure she expects the pure arti
cle in return. Poor girl’ you do not
know the witchery of the jug, nor the
strong bands which bin! the soul of the
man to whom your happiness is entrust
ed. True enough, he is good harted
land kino, except when in liquor, but as
his slavery increases his kindness de
creases. While seeking for some one to
shield him in his helplessness, lie may
indeed flatter you that you only can re-
deem him. After you become 1ih slave
you may well wish for an early grave.
Many an error it hides, many a heart
ache it cures. But the lack of love
soon follows protracted indulgence in
folly. Young ladies, never put your
arm through the han lie of a jug.

In the rush and hurry of modern life
do we think as much as we might of the
happiness of those who are growing
olil, They have lost so much! Their
youth, often their health, most of the
friends and companions who started
with them on life's journey; and vet wo
often grudge them the brightness and
joy we might so easily put into their
lives. We will not stay to hear the re
collections of old and happy days which
they lovo to tell us; we let them see so
plainly that their day is over, and ours
has cor.ie! That those who have borne
the burden and heat of the day, toiled
and struggled and worn themselves out
for others, should b" left to, feel lonely
and neglected Is sorrowful. We can
and ought, each and all, in our own
place and way, do something to bring
the glow of summer and tho remem
brance of the duys of roses and love
into the lives fast nearing their winter
and their end.

| Commendable Religion.
We want a religion that soften tho
step, and tunes the voice to melody, and
fills the eye with sunshine, and checks
the impatient exclamation and harsh
rebuke-a religion that is polite, defer
ential to superiors, courteous to inferi
ors and considerate to friends; a relig
ion that goes into the family, and keeps
the husband from being cross when the
dinner is late, and keeps the wife from
fretting when he tracks the floor with
his muddy boots, and makes him mind
ful of the scraper and the door mat;
keeps the inothar patient when the baby
is cross, and amusoB the children as well
as instructs them; cares for the serv
ants besides paying them promptly; pro
jects the honey-moon into the harvest
moon, and makes the happy home like
the Easter tig tree, hearing in its bosom
at once the beauty of the tender blos
som and the glory of the ripened fruit.
We want a religion that shall interpose
between the ruts and the gullies and the
rocks of tho highways of life, and the
sensitive souls who arc traveling over
them.

Look Here Boys.
It has been most truly stated, “Dis
tance lends enchantment,” and the city
looks well from the old farm. Perhaps
you do not see thorns and thistles, but
they grow in the city thicker than on the
farm. Home discipline may be hard to
bear, but in it are gems of successes.
Parents are midway in the temple of
life, and certainly must know more than
those standing on the threshold. It is
always safe to listen to the voice of wis
dom and affection. You may not be
permitted to control all things at home
but please remember before seeking the
large liberty of the city that you can
control nothing there. You may wear
store clo'hes, but you must be the serv
ant of all. Liberty and ease are the
fruit of toil. The boy that knov/s more
than his parents goes to the wall in the
city. Success depends upon industry,
obedience, economy and pority. Brown
hands, clean tongues and hearts are in
great demand in the city. A country
loafer becomes a city loafer and neithe
