THE HOME CIRCLE COLUMN

Pleasant Evening Reveries—A Column Dedicated to
Tired Mothers as they Join the Home
Circle at Evening Tide.
Br J. KNOX HALL
A HAW N«W YSAR.
The good old with fulfill* itself.
You hav» a happy year
Who with it fof all other*
In kindliness sincere,
So face the future bravely,
Believing in its beat,
And look with eyea of faith and hop*
For and rest.
Raoh year-la full of gladnes*
For those with hands to take
The gift as, one of blessing,
And use, as for God's sake.
It cannot but be happy
Since warmth and joy shall be
Where the home-light burns brightly,
And love is real and free.
For when the heart takes courage,
And trust is joined to prayer,
Then life Itself is beautiful,
And every day is fair.
NRW VHAR KKVKKIKS.
The days, weeks aud years slip
away like water in a running stream.
Time'» great clock never loses a
moment. Relentlessly, surely the
moments pass, and our eager hands
are not able to detain them. We
cannot keep back the flying years,
but we can and should keep the
blessings they bring. Hold fast to
lessons they have taught. Keep
the memory of their joys. Enrich
every day of life with the garnered
wealth of the days behind. The
years pass,but they leave their treas
ure with us, if our hands and heart
are open to receive them, so as with
one hand we shake farewell to 1907
let ns stretch out the other hand to
warmly greet and welcome 1908.
May every day be a royal pnsessiou
T» high-born purpose anil steadfast
• aim,
And every hour in its swift progression
1 Make life more worllivjh.tu when it
came.
Renewed feelings of ambition are
synonymous with the opening of
the New Year. More reso
lutions are made than at any
other time, and as often are
they alas! broken. Hut with some
the resolutions made with the dawn
of a new year have be:u carried
through to its close. Numerous
lives of honor and achievement can
be traced to some determination of
purpose made upon an occasion
such as the first day of the year af
fords for a fresh start in the jour
ney of life. We all desire success-,
the problem of life is its wining.
Every person carries in his or her
own hand the key that unlocks
either the door of success or failure.
The true key of success is labor,
and it requires a strong, resolute
will to turn it. It is hard, earnest
work, step by step, that insures
success, and never was this truth
more potent than at the prsent time.
Positions of trust and eminence are
no longer secured at a single leap.
Men and women have ceased to
succeed in a hurry. The secret of
many successful careers is the thor
ough performance of whatever has
been undertaken.
At the beginning of a glad New
Year it is well to remember that
some of the beat things in life can
be stored up only by the generosity
which gives, asking for nothing
again. Such are warm affections,
kind feelings, benevolent dispo
sitions. Every service willingly
rendered, every help gladly given
every effort to encourage the dis
heartened, to teach the ignorant, to
lift the fallen, not only perform
their intended work but even more
surelv react upon the doer; they
may or may not bring him the love,
respect and gratitude of those be
befriends, but they will infallibly
bring brightness and sweetness into
his own heart, increasing his de
sire and strengthening his power to
do good, and storing up within him
thoae jUftpOsitions which cannot
laiT to bless him while enabling him
to bless others.
We would have power in iqoH to
brighten
Kach lot lev blessed and fair than
—— own; • * !
The woe to heal and the load to lighten,
The waste soul garden to plant with
flowers.
In tlutofy, the exchange of New
Vear calls and Christmas gifts Is a
beautiful custom. The holidays is
a time when kindly feelings and
universal good-will prompt a gen
eral tnanifesrstiun of regard in. the
exchange of calls and presents. It
is the friendship expressed in the
act that is valued. The cause and
not the effect occasions the pleasure.
All look forward to the happy holi
day times when each is gladdened,
and, in turn, makes others glad by
tokens of honest regard and friend
ly feeling. The world fairly beams
with good cheer.
New hope for the souls long clouded over
With possible sorrows and actual pain;
New joys for comrade, and friend, and
lover
The year is bringing them all again.
In starting out upon the journey
of a new year an excellent maxim
is that which counsels us nevet to
put our hands to any thing into
which we cannot throw our whole
energies harnessed with the very
best of our endeavors. Persever
ance ft essential to success, since it
is often achieved only through a
succession of failures. In spite of
our best offorts, failures are in
store for the majority of the race.
It remains, theu, for us all to do
the best we can under all circum
stance, bearing in mind that races
are not always won by the swiftest
feet nor triumph in battle secured
by the strongest arms. It is not
so much the possession of swiftness
or strength as it is the right ap
plication of them by which success
is insured. . .
The youth who starts out in life
with an earnest determination to lie
honest, upright, faithful to all
trusts, punctual, attentive and
above all, God-fearing; has a prom
ise of abundant success. Though
he be without money, or wealthy
friends, he will be sure to gain all
that he most desires and make a
success of life. Start to-day.

James Donahue, New Britan,
Conn., writes; "I tried several kid

our best physicians for diabetes, but
did not improve uutil I took Foley's
Kidney Cure. After the second
bottle I showed improvement, and
five bottles cured me completely.
I have since passed a rigid examine

6ood Cough Medicine for Children
The season for coughs and colds
is now at hand and too much care
cannot be used to protect the chil
dren. A child is much more likely
to contract diphtheria or scarlet
fever when he has a cold. The
quicker you cure his cold the less
the risk. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the sole reliance of many
mothers, and few of those who
have tried it are willing to use any
other. Mrs. F.- F. Starcher, of
Ripley, W. Va., says, "I have
never used anything other than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for
my children and it has always given
good satifaction." This remedy
contains no opium or other narcotic
and may be given as confidently to
a child as to an adult. For sale by
All Drugists and Dealer* in Patent
Medicine.
Colonel Bryan is said to be the
