cities. Fathers, husbands, and lovers-will
you st with us to-nigbt-this Saturday
night, and talk with rs, your friends The
labors of the week are ended. The little tin
pail which no oft has accompanied you to
the places of toll, sits in its place-the home
ones so dear to you aEe indeed GLAD SATURDAY.
night, the most blessed Of all Gods earthly
nights, has come again.
We are weary. Hcurs Of toll and tension
ot brain-hours Of severe mental labor have
for years made us long for this, hest night
of all the week 10 US. As we have worked
through the week, We esn rest, muse and
think now; we can all leave the work-roou
behind and rest, and tell the dear one Of our
heart, and the loved ones OF our household,
that We love them, and with them to-aight
shall rest.
Throw care to the winds. Gather the
loved ones about you. Tell the wife who
for days, weeks, months or years, has shared
more Of your troubles than Of your Joys
that you love her as in the days agone And
YOU will see her face hight up with the same
smile which so crazed your heart will
see the love hight in her eye, and out to each
will swell the heart as in days long since.
Gather the little one, or the little ones,
about yeu. Unbehd from business. Romp
With the home ones. Men should not be
statues, never bending, always cold and for
bidding. Down from your assumed dignity,
AMI be true, noble-hearted man. Draw
ner you love 70 your heart. Look into her
eyes go down into the wondrous depths
remember il is intolerabe selfishness which
strangles so many hearts; be good, kind,
loving, happy.
All the week she has toied and waited 'or
tonight. Do not disappoint her now, and
your home will be happier each coming week
Her task Is harder yet than yours, for the
walls Of a house, no matter now large, are
not like the walls of city. Perhaps the
bloom Of youth, the silent eIoquesce of the
eye, the loved presence are not there as
once. Then workingman and brother, see
IL you cannot call them back for you arr
the man-she is but the patient, toiling,
trusting, loving woman, who would die for
you and your love.

Do not 90 alone. Take your home ones
with you. Give them treat to-uight If
you have saved only enough for your own

you cannot take her and them to a place of
amusement, walk the streets and see the
beautiful, or throw off your coat and romp
10 the pxrior or sitting room Of mansion or
shsnty, as the case may be. Give this night
to your family and you. viii be a better, hap

We love the laborers OF America. We
love the workingmel enough to speak truth
to them, for re would make their home
happier, their labor less, their enjoyments
more-their eternity brighter. And this we
will tell them.
Save your earnings. Do not sauanie

the dollar will buy shoes for the little one
keepsake for the wife--a book for her to
read when tired aud weary with watching
for your coming-a picture for you both to
look at, as il adds beauty to your room.
Save the dollar you are tempted 70 spend
foolishly. Beautliy your home rather than
some glded saloon. Try aud be better. more
noble, manly, and more Of good husband
