THE HOME CIRCLE COLUMN i 4 Pleasant Evening Reveries—A Column Dedicated to Tired Mothers as they Join the Home Circle at Evening Tide. By J. KNOX HALL A MOI>KL WIFE s A model wife is the woman who looks after his household, \and makes her hospitality a delight to ' him, and not a burden; who has learned that a soft answer will turn away Wrath; who keeps her sweet est smiles and mast loving words for her husband; who is his confi dante in sorrow or in jo>?, and who does not feel the necessity of ex plaining her private affairs to the neighborhood; who respects , the rights of husband and children, and in return has due regard paid to her; who knows that the strongest argument is her womanliness, and so she cultivates it; who is sympa theic in joy or in grief, and who finds work for hands to do; who is not made better by trouble, but who strengthens and sweetens under it; who tries to cancel tie faults of her husband, rather than . blazon them forth to an uninterested public; the woman whose life-book has love written on every -page; who makes a home for a man. a home in a hpuse and in a heart, a home that he is sure of, a home that is full of love presided over by one whose price is above rubies. She is the model wife. A successful man; "A man who has made a happy home for his wife and children. No matter what he has not done*in the way of achieving wealth and houor; if he has done that he is a grand suc cess. lohe has not done that, and it is his own fault, though lie be the highest in the land, he is a most pitiable failure. I wonder how many men in a mad pursuit of gold, which characterizes the age. realize that there is no fortune which can be left to their families as great as the memory of a happy WANTED— A BOY T Wanted —a boy. A brave, cou rageous, manly, hopeful boy; one who is not afraid of the truth; one who scorns* lie; one who hates deceit; one who loves his mother; one who does not know more than his parents; one who has the cour agetosay "no," to it; one who is willing to begin at the bottom of the ladder and work up wards; one who thinks it unmanly > to smoke; one who thinks an edu cation is worth striving for; one who is willing to obey his superiors; one who knows his home js better than the street; one who dosen't believe the marvt lous tales told in the story papers, and will not read the vile stuff; one who won't be a cheat in a fair game; one who won t be a sneak, and do a mean act when unseen; one who won't spend every penny he earns or gets; one who thinks he should respect him self, and keep himself in decent appearance; one who won't attack an old man because he is feeble and defenseless; one who won't torture dumb animals; one who won't steal; one who won't swear; one who* won't listen to or repeat nasty stories; one who won'ttevile and jeer at drunken persqns on the street; one who won't do a dirty act for another boy who is too cowardly to do his own meanness; one who loves to do right because it is right. Wanted a boy; a whole-souled, earnest, honorable, square boy. Where can he be found? Does he live in your neighborhood? Is he a member of your of family? Do you know him? Our lives should be like the day, more beautiful in the evening; or, like the summer, aglow with prom ise; and like the autumn, rich with the golden sheaves, where good works and deeds have ripened on a the field. •• NEATNESS OF DRESS AT HOME The importance of neat and tasteful home dressing cannot be over estimated. The matron who appears before the members of the family in a shabby, soiled wrapper . and makes the excuse, if indeed she takes the trouble to'make one at all, that 'it is so much more com-. fortable,"has little idea of the pos sible consequences of such a course Could she'but realize that her dress is an evil example to her daughters, and productive of consequences that will reach far beyond her own span of,life; that her husband and sons cannot fail to draw compari sons between her dress and that of the ladies they meet in other homes, and that these comparisons can not fail'to decrease their respect for her, she might be induced to give more attention to her personal ap pearance. Not even the burden of care and constant employment can furnish a sufficient excuse for careless per sonal habits for few things are more important to Jse well-being of a family. There is an old say ing to the effect that an untidy mother has disobedient children and, while neither parfcnts or childrtn may realize the whv >r STATEMENT DIXIE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY , Of Asheville, North Carolina CONIUTION DKCKMIIKR 31, 1907, AS SHOWN BY STATKMKNT FII.KD Amount cf capital paid up m cash None Mutual Assessment Amount Ledger Assets December ,jis»t previous year... * # >4O-03 Income—from members f5.80j.25; Miscellaneous, #10.50; Totpl, $5,823 75 Disbursements—To Members#l,9l2.B6; Miscellaneous, #3 836.4 ft; Total, #5,749.32 ASSETTS Catih in Home Office # 9* 3° Cash deposited in Ranks ; 122.19 All other Assetts, as detailed in btatement *13.50 Total, # 4:7.99 Leas Assets, not admitted 213 50 Total admitted Assetts .... # 21449 LIABILITIES Death losses, n t yet due; $ 37 50 Salaries due or accrued v 1,9,3.25 Total Liabilities .. $ 1,990.75 Balance to the right of assesment * ~f 1,776.34 BUSINESS IN NORTH CAROLINA IN 1407 I" TWwmtpr , , of previous year,..

A purpose is the prime condition of success, the tternal never changes condition. Nothing can take its place The highroad to success lies through 'put pose, and one trouble with us is that we lack purpose, and, lacking that, lack principle, lack back bone, lack 1 grit. Npt having a purpose in life, !we have no power to take strong | hold of some work and doit. No ! man is ever likely to accomplish any more than he resolutely sets himself to accomplish. The ten dency is to dritt, to float with the current, to let the stream of life sweep us whither it wilU That is the easier way doubtless, and the banks arc very beautiful and pleas ant as we glide between them; but our true journey lies the other way, the real treasure mines of life are in the hills near the sources of the river; and we must row, row hard against the current if we would reach them. Let us row. not float through life; steer, not drift. Here come# the Soring Winds torhap, tail awl freckle. Use Pinesalve Cartx>- liased. (Acts like a poultice) for cuts, sores, burns, chapped skin.
