BoYs, Go HoME.-Ah, boys! you who

into the rush and hustle of life, do you
ever think of the patient mothers who
are stretching out to your arms power
less to draw you back to the home
nest? Arms that were strong to carry
you once, pressed closely to hearts that
love you now as then.
No matter though your hair is silver
streaked, and Dot in the cradle calls
you "Grardpa." You are the children
of the old home. Nothing can crowd
you out of mothers heart. You may
have failed in the battle of life, and
your manhood may have been crushed
out against the wall of circumstances;
you may have been prosperous. and
gained wealth and fame, but mother 8

"boy" has not been home for five. ten.
or even twenty years. And all this time
mother has been waiting. All. who
does not know the agony expressed by
that world? She may even now be say
ing: II dreampt of John last night.
Maybe he will come home to day. He
may drop in for dinner" and the poor
trembling hands prepare some favorite

but John comes not with it. Thus, day
after day, month after month, and year
after year passes, till at last. "hope
deferred maketh the heart SICK" aye,
sick unto death; the feeble arms are
stretched out no longer.
The dim eyes are closed, the gray
hairs smoothed for the last time, and
the tired hands are folded to everlasting
rest, and the mother waits no more on
earth for one who comes not. God
grant she may not have to vainly wait
for his coming in heaven.
Once more I say unto you, boys, 60
