CRUDE THOUGHTS IHOH THE EDITORIAL PEN
Woman was made oat of the rib,
taken from the Bide of man; Dot oat
of his bead to role him, bat oat of
his side to be his equal, under his
arm to be protected, and near bis
heart to be lored. v
Girls, listen to your mothers; yon
will never regret it. No matter
what your advantages are above
what hers were, you are no better.
Ton can rest assured that . it is not
book learning or knowledge of
fashion that will keep your feet
away from the many pitfalls that
she can warn you from, in a tender,
loving fashion, that yo" would do
well to heed. No matter how
mothers may speak, you may rest
assured their hearts are in the right
place and that they want their
daughters to be innocent and good,
rather than fashionable.
If you would gather up all ten
der memories, all the lights and
shades of the heart, all banquetings
and reunions, all filial, fraternal, pa
ternal and conjugal affections and
you had only jast four letters with
which to spell out that height and
depth and length and breadth and
magnitude and eternity of meaning,
you woulcwitb streaming eyes and
trembling voice, and agitated hand,
write it out m those four living
capitals, H-O-M-E.

What a different world this would
be if only all of us would cultivate
the grace of good nature! It is the
best tonic for nerrous disorders, the
surest preservation of home happi
ness, and the most effective remedy
for the divorce disease now unhappi
ly prevalent. He who has learned
how to take even the most disagree
able things and grievous disappoint
ments good naturedly may never be
a millionaire, but he will be what is
much better, both happy and a
source of happiness, and the atmos
phere he carries with him will be
like a bit of sunshine in the mam
moth cave.
There is no earthly need of so
much poverty and grumbling, as one
hears on all sides to-day. There is
plenty of food m this great and glo
rious world for all its people. It is
the fault of education of oar child
ren: they are brought p wrong.
The children should be broken into
some useful labor and taught to re
spect and hoaor the useful more
than the ornamental. Every boy
and girl should be made to work at
something that woulu be of profit,
till the second nature forms with
them. A man or woman so edu
cated becomes actually fond of la
bor or at least pleased with results,
then it becomes a pleasure to per
form it. All children at an early
age should have a bank and be
taught to save its money, or, at best
the larger part of it. They shpuld
not be allowed to waste anything,
food, clothing, or any other article
of value. It is the early impressions
formed on the mind that are endur
ing. Very few children trained in
the right direction will become pau
pers, unless caused by sickness or
iwme unavoidable accident.
-
One reason why some men do hot
get along better in this world is be
cause they have not the proper
timniant m their homes. Their
homes lack those little touches of
refinement which bring the best out
of them. Neatness - and , taste 'are
possible In the poorest homes. Let
a woman make the atmosphere a
dftint.V an bar maana alliur t
will raise her hmsband to the same
standard. And as she elevates him
the effect is felt upon- herself, , her
children, her homej and5 her future,
v Some men respond more slowly to
the touch of a 'woman's band dis
played in their homes and !upon
their surroundings. The task may
seem hopeless to the wife at times.
But sooner or later the effect will
show itself. There is something in
every man which responds to a high
er gentler influence. Let bis home
be rough and he will be rough. But
infuse into that home a softening
touch, be it ever so simple, and the
man feels it even though he may not
directly notice it. He imbibes it
unconsciously, and its effect is sure
upon him.
DON't REPROVE AT BEDT1US.
To send children happy to bed
should be one of the mother's most
ordinary tasks. No little one should
dread the bedtime hour, nor fear the
dark, nor be allowed to go to rest
under a sense of disgrace or alien a
tion from household love. What
ever the child's daytime naughti
ness may have been, at nightfall he
should be forgiven, and go to rest
with the mother's kiss on her lips
and her tender voice in his ears.
Hardly anything can be worse
for a young child than to be scolded
or punished at bedtime. The moth
er does well to be a little blind at
times, remembering that a good
deal of childish culpability is superfi
cial only, and washes off almost as
easily as does the dirt which the
evening bath removes from the
skin.
The main thing with children is
to have them Well started with good
principles, which they will carry
through life. Obediency, truth, un
selfishness, purity are essentials, and
these can all be lovingly cultivated,
and will flourish in the right home
atmosphere.
CITY ATTK ACTIONS.
The illustration of the sea-bird
drawn to its doom by the glare of
the beacon light finds no truer pho
totype than in the case of the coun
try girl lured from her home by
dreams of fortune 10 be realized in
the great city. As ignorant of the
wiles of evil as a mouse is of the
mechanism of a trap, unsophisticated
in the blandishments of sins, holding
blankly to the belief that sleep and
goats never mingle the drops into
the maelstrom of a city existence
as a snowflake settles into the river
"One moment white, then gone for
ever." There lie in wait for inno
cence , the wide world over, a legion
of plotting devils arrayed in livery
of light, honest appearing advertise
ments that are tent hooks with which
the devil angles for souls; employers
who scarcely take the pains to hide
the fangs of wolves behind their
miling lips; boarding-houses infest
ed with other and more hideous ver
min than the rat and the roach; com
panionship of more fatal effect to
the soul than hydrant water to the
health; counsellors who spin view
less webs and plot ruin as the spider
works destruction to the stupid fly.
All these, and a great many more,
pitfalls lie in the. way of the country
girl as she turns her light step from
the cowslip and the green - tart to
take her place in the ranks of those
who walk the path of daily toil.
Of Interest to Farmers and Uechanlcs.
, Farmers and mechanics "frequently
meet with slight accidents and injuries
which cause them much annoyance and
loss of time. A cut or bruise may. be
cured in about one third the N time
usually required by applying Chamber
lain s Liniment as soon R ha fnr.
is received. This liniment is- also val-
