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. tug Famous Sunny South B U O G \ / Are you considering a ouggy?

E.BECKER M1LLEDQEV1LLE, GA. “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. ooo 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. ooo | 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. ooo 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.
