The msaeee ot our people have I tomes—
humble homes. oomforUbls homes
where, as William Pitt said, -'The
poorest man may bid defiant* tu the
orowo. It may be fralL It* root may
shake, tbs wind may blow through It
and raid leak in, but Lit* King of Eng
land cannot enter, nor bis force* dare
to cross its threshold." Tbs masses of
our people have good health, which is
lbs Chiefsst of all poor man’s blessings.
In this good southern laud wa have
pure air, good water, a tsmpsrats cli
mate and a soil that raapoudr easily
and surely to the laborer's toil. Adam
Smith Mid In his great work on Uis
wealth of nations that kind l'rovldvooa
had ao ordained that tbs average uu.r
nf one mao woald support right par*ur,»
and give them all lb* uecsessilee,
many of tha comfuii* and some of lha
luxuries of Ufa. Uow nicely this Gta
tbs average family—a man and lit*
wife and six eblldren. If there are
mors children lb* older ones are able to
help, and as the mau grow* old nod
feeble tbs youogtr eblldren have grown
up to take bis place. Of course, there
are exception*, for the wife may be an
Invalid or tbe child,aa all girls or the
farm bone get tick and die, or tbe bogs
take cholera or the house burn up, hut
most all of our 111* are the result of In
doleoee, imprudence or criminal eon
duot. If we violate a law of nature
we are to suffer for It. If wa spend
more than ws asks sad gat in debt we
chain ourselves lo a hard master, for,
as Solomon said, "the borrower Is a
Mirant to tbe lender." Frugal habit*
and COO let latent at home are cardinal
vlrtOM that mam re happiness. Thin
there are tbe pleasures that affect the
heart aad tbe amotion*, the toy* of
loving and being luved, the innocent
sports or ebUdreu or grandchildren, as
they play around us; tha sweat charm
of mnslo, even though It be a motber’a
