Pleasant Evening: Reveries—A Column Dedi cated to Tired Mothers as They Join the Home Circle at Evening Tide. 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. tyor t,’ ■-'it' iUr . ,J> 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 —Thomas J.
