The Unseen Home. Looking out in the light of day, Across the. valley that lies between, More than a.Juile and a half away, The hill Jo pes upward, woody and green, w- A , Woody ant? green to the very top; I strain my eyes but I cannot see ' The house, though I know the very spot Almost where its shining walls must be. I cannot see the gleam of the walls When the sun in the heaven is ; bright and high; But when the shadows of evening fall, And the stars come out in the quiet : sky, An' answering star on the mountain v. side," ""' Gleams over the gloom in the vale below; c-o. though the jealous trees may hide, . A happy home is there, I know. As I sit in the dusky eve and watch To catch th e gleam of that shining light, A pleasing picture my fancy weaves Of a tired man coming home at night; Of the loving welcome he there will meet From one who has watched for his coming long; Of childish prattle, and pattering feet; And my faith in the picture is very strong. So, when I wearily turn my eyes To the stars that are shining up above, Each steadily keeping its nightly place, My faith grows strong in the Father's love. v. And, though the walls of my heaven ly home, Are closely hidden away from sight, I know that a gleam from it will come To guide me on through the dark est night. Hog Killing Time. Mr. J. W. Dry, the North Winston butcher, has been kill ing hogs for. private individuals all the present winter. Out of several hundred already dressed, Mr. K. W. Hedgecock had one that weighed 522 pounds, the heaviest pig in all the bunch. Pikie Webster, out in Pegram town had one that weighed 17 pounds, which was the champion featherweight of the season. Money is Not Success. -The Kev. Madison 0. Peters, in his sermon in the Madison Avenue Baptist Church of the Epiphany last night on the text, "A good name is rather to be choseu than great riches," said : "I am a huge ad mirer of suc cess itself. At -a recent funeral in this city of a multi-millionaire the body was followed to the grave by only six carriages, in cluding, the detectives and all the mourners, beneficiaries of the will, with hardly a tear of genuine sorrow shed -not even by the family. "Who would call such a life a success? " Who would quote that career as an example to young men ? A long life with no love of God, no love of man w h i 1 e living a life with no goodness twenty millions for heirs to fight about; twenty. millions rich, yet not one moment after the man has gone, how poor inwardly. "The man who has nothing but money, or, rather, the man whom money has, is the poorest thing in all the world. "Who would stand for all their money in the shoes of the insur ance men who have robbed wid ows and orphan s ? These men have gathered together that which makes fools envy them, but who does them honor ? Would they not gladly begin life over again and live for a good name rather than great riches. Money-making is not success. Character is success, and there is no other." New York -Times. Boys, you have but one moth er; care for her and spare her. She is not a beast of burden to drive along the highway of life. There is no love like her love, you may not know it now, but "you will some day. Sohouler's Department Store.
