The homes Of America will not become
what they should be until truo idea of life
shall become more widely implanted. The
worship Of the dollar does more to degrade
American homes, than anything-than all
thiugs-else. Utility is the God of almost
universal worship. The chief end Of life is to
gather gold, and that gold is counted lost
which hangs picture upon the wall, which
purchases flowers for the yard, which buys
toy or book for the eager hand Of child
hood. Is this the whole of human Efe.-
Then it is mean, msagre, and most unde-
sirabls thing. A child will go forth from
such home as horse will 60 from a STALL
glad to find free air and wider PASTURE
The influence of such home upon him in af-
ter life, will be ust none at all, or nothing
good. Thousands are rushing from homes
like these every year. They crowd into ci-
ties. They crowd into villages. TLey swarm
into all places where life is clothed with
higher significance; and the old she'll of home
is deserted by every bird as it can fly. An,
csstral homesteads and patrimonial acres have
no sacrsdnessi and when the father and mo-
ther die, the strangers presence obliterate as
sociatons that should be among the most sa-
cred Of all things.
