There are two classes of individuals, one leading an aim
less life and the other rushing to the front. One dritts about,
making a success of nothing; the other sticks to something
and makes a success of something of himself. The one
whiffs an old pipe and eats plug tobacco and is always hunt
ing for something to do, yet doing little or nothing. The
other is found in his place, filling it with clean hands and
honest effort. Oh which chink you the public should bestow
her favors? A great many of this first class finally conclude
they are gifted to get the spoils of some office and with noth
ing else to do, they push themselves in and crowd the de
serving and faithful out. It is such that curse the nation to
day above aught else. Good men and true men are the ones
to serve the people, and only w’hen such are chosen from
the lowest to the highest office in the gift of the people wifi
the best results be obtained.
Are you a favored one to whom is given more than abun
dance of this world’s goods? Then strive by your gifts to
secure the double blessing of giving to the necessities of oth
ers andjteceiving the reward from the hand of the blessed
Giver of all goods.
Give, because you are a follower of Him who gave Ilis
life for all. Give, because your heart is overflowing with
tenderness made sensitive by the spirit of truth. Give your
thoughts, give your prayers, give your wealth, if you have
any, but at any rate give your smiles, your tears, your gen
tle words of counsel and sympathy, and the world may be
better and more nearly right because of your being in it.
The whole family, mothers, daughters and all must suffer
for the mistakes of the male heads; the women should have
a voiee in all matters that concern them. Indeed if their
words wore listened to more attentively, it would be better
for all. The mother’s voice often goes a long ways with her
son., and he will be more likely to find the safe way by lis
tening to her counsel, than in following the worldly lead of
his more ambitious father, or after his own desire for exalt
ed stations. The mother’s advice is as essential for the son
as it is for the daugter, if not moro so. She knows what
sort of a man can make a home happj, and it is happiness
we are all after, and can train him best in that direction. So
the father’s admonitions areas essential to the daughter.
He realizes perhaps better than she does just what sort of a
woman can best grace the family fire side, and so is better
fitted to lead her on toward the desired end. It takes all to
make a complete family, no one can be entirely independent
of the rest. Parental care must last, the filial affection en
dure, or the home’s best interest are not met.
There is a pretty little plant that grows beneath the snow.
Even so in life. Down under a burden or sorrow there may
be found a fragrant bloom not less beautiful and sweet on
account of its seclusion. The world may be cold without,
but in their warm heart home, virtue, love and faith will
grow', and shed their sweets like violets.
These days we sit on the sunny side of the car, walk on
the sunny side of the street and sit in the sunny window of
tnc house. Let us also walk on the sunny side of life and
see the sunny side of the disjointed things of life.
It has been said that to have the children in your power
would be to control the destiny of the world, but give us the
motners and let them realize their power, and we will have
ths children.

WINTER.
Tbe snow is on the mountains,
The frost is on the vale,
The ice hangs o’er the fountain
The storm rides on the gale;
The earth is bare and naked,
The air is cold—and drear,
The sky with snow-clouds flaked,
And dense foul fogs appear;
The sun shines not so brightly
Through the dark murky skies,
The nights grow longer—nightly,
And thus the winter dies, J
