How many happy thoughts are called
up by those two beautiful words. Is
there-can there be any place So full nf
pleasant places? Our heart turns with
Interchangeable love and longing to the
dear old house which sheltered us in
child1 rod. Kind friends may beckon us
to newer scenes, and loving hearts may
bind us fast to warm homes, but there
is one place dearer than ALL and that is
"Mother's House." Here we have
watched life come and go. Here per-
chance we have watched with aching
heart the dear one torn from the home
nest out into the world which has proved
snare and temptation to many wander
ing feet. And here we gather strength
to take up our lives again, and 90 on
patiently unto the end. But though the
world calls US, and we may find friends
good and true, we turn to the dear old
home when troubles come, for help and
comfort. All -Mother' House. 1t may
be old and rckety to the eyes, of the
stranger. But still it is "Nother's
House" 1t is the dear old spot from
which we looked out upon life with
heart full of hope, bulldlng wonderful
castles in cloudlaud which faded away
long ago; uut thanks to the good Father
"Mother's House is left us still, and
weary with the busy turmoil of life
weary Of our elves we turn our steps
toward the dear house of rest. and at its
threshold lay our burdens down. God
grant that for us all there may long
remain a "Mother'S House"

The story is told of women who
freely used her tongue to the scandal of
others, and made confession to the
riiest of whatshe done. He gave her a
ripe thistle top and, told her to go about
in various directions and scatter the
seed one by one. Wondering at the
penance, she returned ana told her con.
fessor. To her amazement, he bade
her go back and gather the scattered
seed; and when she objected that 1t
would be impossible he replied that it
would be still more dilIic llt to gather
up and destroy all the evil reports
which she had circulated about others.
Any thoughtless, careless child can
scatter handful of thistle seed before
the wind in a moment, but the strong
est and wisest man can not gather them
again. t-

A few hints and recipes for the sick
room may now and then be in place.
Everything around tie sick should be
quiet and cleanly. The nurse should
have a steady hand, clear head and ten.
der heart; not talkative or nervous.
Avoid arguments with the sick; do not
sit or lean on the bed. Friends calling
on the sick shoul make their STAY short.
The practice of visiting the sick ON the
Sabbath is a very poor one-tat day
often thus becomes the mosttrying and
fati9uing of all to them. AS a general
rule do not go into the sick room unless
you go to help. Do not deceive the
sick; deceit breeds suspicion, and they
will worry lest you keep something
for them. Don't purSuatle the dying
that they will recover, it Is treason
against the interests of the soul. Never
enter sick room in moment of pres
piration; as the moment you become
cool your pores absorb. Do not ap.-
proach contagious disease with an
empty stomach, nor sit bstween the sick.
and fire, because the heat attracts the
vapor. Preventives are preferable to pills
or powders. Spirits of ammonia, in
hailed, is good for the headache, and to
help the breathing in bad colds. 1t
cools and sootbes feverish patient to
wash him in warm water, ia which
saleratus or soda has been dissolved. A
little cotton batting, wet with sweet oil
add laudanum, put in the ear, will core
the ear-ache in the beginning of it.

FOrtitude i'm Business.

Many man who would be brave be.
fore a cannon's mouth, manfests lack
of courage and fortitude Ia the ordinary
affairs of life. .. +.
Discouragement and despair are
always unmanly; and this should be
borne in mind in times like these.
No matter how you are situated, do
the best you can. If you have made
mistakes in the past, recify them in the
present, and avoid them in the future.
Everybody makes mistakes; therefore
do not be dsheartencd because you Lave
fallen into error, when you reflect that
error Is common to all.
Look at the future. There Is the
field for hope and for labor. Only re-
gard the past for the lessons which IL
teaches. Say to yourself, disaster may
came, but dispair neverl r.. Boz q.
Be brave in business as you would be
brave In battle. Ii your efforts In the
past have failed, renew and redouble
them in the future, Never despair.

GENTS OF THE Committee: HAVING
laid before you the above sworn state
ments, which have purposely restricted
to the relations of Mr.. Beecher with Mrs
Tilton, and with no other person or per-
sous, wish to add an explanation due to
yourselves. In the Golden Age, lately
edited by me, suggestion was made, not
with my knowledge or consent, that your
committee, in order to be Justly consti-
tuted, should comprise in addition to six
members appointed by Mr.. Beecher and
six others appointed by myself. To no
such proposal would I have consented,
for never wanted any tribunal whatever
for the Investigation Of the subiect.
Neither your committee as at present CON
stltuted nor an enlarged committee on the
plan just mentioned, nor any other com-
mittee Of any kind could IN and of itself
have persuaded or comp elled me to lay
before you the facts contained in the pre-
ceding statement. Distinctly be it nader
stood that these facts have not been
evoked byyour committee because of any
authority which | recognize in you as a
tribunal OF inquiry, nor would they have
been yielded up to any other committee
or board Of reference, however constituted
except court law. But on the contrary
| have divulged the above statement sole
ly because of the published demand for it
made direct to me by Rev. FL w. Beecher
and abetted by Mrs. g. r. Tilton. These
two parties. these alone, and not your

with me. No other authority or influence
excapt a oonrt Law conld haua Lee<s-f,o
erful enough to have extorted from me
the above disclosure. For the sake Of
one of these parties gladly would | have
continued to hide these facts in the future
| have necessarily striven to do so in
the past. But by the joint action of Mr.
Beecner and Mrs. Tilton | can withhold
the truth only at the price of perpetual
infamy to my name, in addition to the
penalty which | already suffer in the
destruction of home once pleasant, as
yourselves know we'll. 'a
