For those that wander know not where Are full of trouble and full (are. To slay at home is hest. Home -the name made dear by sacred associations, the place where childish feet take their first faltering steps and infant mi mis receive their tirst ideas. Their Jessons of , love and truth, of right aad wrong, of I'ai th and hope and . purity are impr inted upon the plastic heart, "and all the sor rows and perplexities of after life are inefficient to quite ef face these first deep true im pressions. Sweet home, where the mother's gentle hands pre pare the little domestic com forts that a father's love pro ; vides, ami filial affection is the ! silver link, the silken tie that ; hind the household hands to ! get her. Trials may come and ! clouds may lower, hut in the ; seclusion of home remains sweet healing for the wounds that Inave and sensitive hearts 1 hide I nun a d isdainful world. There these hurts and distresses may he confidently revealed j and a sovereign remedy found in its unquestioning faith. There a child's pure kiss or the touch of dimpled fingers may revive a soul on the verge of despair ami in the home the ; brightest dreams become more ; golden, the rarest pleasures more intense, the lenderest joys more serene. And if, in the van ing degrees of fortune, ils lo ing sin Iter must lie aban doned, how I he exile folds about his heart, as III travel er does his cloak, the memory 'of ils lights and flowers, its loves and hopes and kindness: There the noblest influences exist, the holiest impulses find expression, and there have been burn the chaste and lofty senti ments that have made a whole world In ighter.

Not that I doubt you love me Or did, through wreck and wrong; From flower-fair heights above me You love me for a song ! Undreamed-of bells were ringing, Skies that were dark seemed blue; And all my sweetest singing Was of the love of you ! 111. Strange stars above you gleaming.

Miss Beriha Kramer, a young I school teacher, tells the following story of one of her pupils who lives in Naareth, Pa. i It seems that this child asks more questions than the average j youngster and rarely forgets what I is said. One morning he went to lite i teacher. 1 "Miss Iknha, does every pretty girl gel married?" he asked in a solemn lone. ! "Why Henry," replied Miss j Kramer, "what makes you ask j that ? Most of the pretty girls do, j but sometimes they never have i the chance." "W ell, we had an argument at home last night about that and I said all preity girls got married. ; Why don't you get married, too you are the prettiest teacher 1 know ?" "I suppose it is because no one ever asked me, Henry, tou see, 1 couldn't very well, any how." "Oh, say, Miss Bertha, you're only kiddin'. There are lots of fellows who'd have you besides, between you and me, you'd have a better lime lookin' after kids of your own rather than other peo ple's kids! Phil. Times. HE KNEW THE KIM). WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO-DAY? We shall do so much in the years to come, Bui what have we done to-day ?l We shall give our gold in a princely sum, But what did we give to-day ? We shall lift the heart and dry the tear, We shall plant a hope in the place of fear, We shall speak the words of love and cheer, But what did we speak to-day? We shall be so kind in the afier-a-while, But what have we been to-day ? We shall bring to each lonely life a smile, But what have we brought to-day? We shall give to truth a grander birth, And to standfast faith a deeper worth, We shall feed the hungering souls of earth, But whom have we fed to-day? We shall reap such joys in the by-and-by, But what have we sown to-day ? e shall build large mansions towering so high. But what have we built to-day ? 'Tis sweet in idle dreams to bask, But, here and now, do we do our task ? Yes, this is the thing our soul must ask, "What have we done to-day?" Baby Often Has More Intclli Kence Than Both Purenls I'ut ToKCther. I'abies have a lot of sense. '1 hey usually know a great deal heller than their parents what is good for them, If a baby's wishes were consulted in the matter, it wuld never choose to go lo a public concert or or gan recital or church service where a crowd of grown ups sit around in silebce and listen to sounds that are cither itnin-1 telligible or irritating to the infant car. Hut baby isn't in vited. He is bundled up and lugged along willy-nilly. When this happens, the baby, having a great deal more in telligence than both its parents put together, realizes before its parents do that it is in a place where it oughtn't to be. Where- , upon it sets up a lusty howling, or if it is u longsufl'ering kind ' of baby with a forgiving dis ' position towards the grown : ups, it sets about to provide it- 1 self some legitimate amuse I moot that is not offered on the program, citner pulling tlte os trich plumes out of a neighbor ing lady's hat, or making a rattle out of its mother's tiock elbook. No sensible, healthy infant woiiht be foolish enough ! to sit in silence without protest through a three-hour musical program in which it isn't in- ; terested. It takes grown men ; and women to do that. "t hit of mouths of babes shall come wisdom," says the (iood Hook, and their infant voices are never raised more sapiently or to a higher pitch than when they till their little lungs to register a public protest against the thoughtlessness and selfishness of the parents who ha e dragged l hem against their wills to some public en tertainment where babes don't belong. We want to raise our voice, along with that of the babies, to beg parents to be more con siderate of their offspring and of the general public. These . remarks apply to almost any big gathering, but they are called forth particularly by the din that was aroused by the babies at the Auditorium-Armory organ recital Sunday af ternoon.

C. SPIRIT OF THE BOY. I It is the spirit of a boy that determines whether he should go to college or not. If he has no spirit, "get up" gumption or active ambit edl. college will do more harm than good. So every boy that goes to college should impure daily, "Am I that sort- of a chap'r" If he is not, it may nudge him, and lead him to take on a resolution that will win. This is very important. We know two hoys whom a father sent to the best colleges; be spent lots of money on them; they failed fairly well at school: thov are now loaling around Inane, vailing for the silver spoon to come their vn . Ila -ing no impulse, no inial ive. no : spirit, their edticat ion doesn't ' amount to a flying straw. Still i this thing goes o t ami mi. and the fancy keeps dazzling be fore the eves that education is : a nest of eggs to bring them in from the haymow. 1 1 is not so. I'.diicat ion is in getting the hens and starting I he haymow. The chore boy can gather the eggs. - Ohio State .lournal. PROFESSIONAL CARDS. WALTER E. DANIEL, Attorney-at-Law, WKI.IION, N. -.
