The cell If the poem that la selected for oar King' dom each week could only carry some lesson home to the hearts of my readers, I. should feel I had' accomplished a noble end. Tho beautiftl lints gtren helow can bnt conic home with force to many a heart. How often we reproach ouraelvet for haaty or unkftid words to “our own," though wo Ioto them boat; yet the impatient speech le given to them, and tho sweet emlla and gentile word la kept, for the “stranger and cometlmo guezt.” There is no pain that canequtl reproach. True, we often ■peak harshly to “our own” end aak their forgiveness end receive the “kits oi peace,” but the time might come when that would be impossible, and then what would be our grief! Let us give only kind and gentle wordi to our loved ones es they go ioith in the morn to mingle in the bney scenes and temptations ot every day life, that they may entry them as sweet incense in their hearts, cheering them as the sunlight doss tbs. ilowers; and never ■ forgetting that “many go forth in tho morn ingthat never come home at night, and hearts have broken for words spoken, that sorrow can never sot right.” Bow wearily all the day The words unkind Would trouble my mind. I said when yon went away I bad been careful darling. For glTcn you needless pain; Bnt we vex • our own” With look and tone— Wc might never take beck again. For though in the quiet evoniog You may hive me the kits ol peace, Yet it might bo -That ncTer for mo The pain ol the heart should cento. Bow many go forth in the morning That never come homo at night; and hearts have broken For harsh words spoken That sorrow can never sot right. We have careful thoughts for the stranger, And smiles for tbs som e tf me gneat' But oft lor "our own” Tho bitter tone. Though we love "our own" th s best. Ah! lips with curve Impatient, Ah I brow with that looaot scorn; Twcreuciuel (ate Were tbeuighttuolele To undo tho work oi mors. 1 celled on a friend a few mornings ago and was ushered inftfone of the cosiest,hrlgbtest.lll- tie roome that It was ever my fatyto enter. It wee not a homo of wealth or luxury, butthaic was an air of oomfort and refinement that was more pleuisg to the eye than anything alas. There may bars been and I think theiro were, some exptniive snd beautiful ornaments scat, tend around, but my attention was not attrac ted to them; bnt what I did ace snd what mado tho moat impression was the arrange ment of tho curtain* that fell biefore-ths only window In this little love ol a room. Juit opposite the door was.a large wind** and the lecc curtain# that eovorod it were caught to- gather by a lovely spray of autumn leavsi. Borne tasty hand had arranged them, and as the etlmeon, gold and brown leavee rested upon the white lace it was very boautiful, and yet simple. That liltlo spray ol ontumn leaves gave me lood for thought. How easy it it to adorn our hornet wbero we havo the desire. Many imagina that il they have not the means it ie useless to try and make homo look bright, bn! sometimes the eimplo, natnral and home made ornament Is the most attract! ve. There ie no greater evidence ol rofinoment and cul ture than this desire to decorate our homes, and tho rapid progress that decorative art hae made all over tho country epeake well for the women ol our land. It It true that the rich Indulge In many extravagances that the lees fortunate ctneot, but when ws think of it these things srs at lait equally divided. Ged give* lome the means of gratifying all their tails and when those who hare the means look upon the beautilul ornaments their rich neighbors have, they at ones osH into uts til their inventive faculties that they mey Imltatswhatthoy see and cannot obtain, and In this way talanta are often developed that would otherwise bo dormant. So God gives tome money, snd others teats, and one often accomplishes what the other does not. Money could not have bought, nor art aup- plitd, au ornament half so beautiful at that hunch of antumn leaves gracefully plaesd upon thoee curtains. And so there are many wayeofdecorating our homes and making beautiful things out of inexpensive material and at the earns time giving ourwlrts useful and pleasant employment, and feeling that cur own tuts snd ingenuity has aecotsplishtd ta much ai money could bars dons. For ws sppreciate, tlwaye, mors highly, snylhing that cost us trouble and labor. What ii easily obtained le eeldom valued.
