crouch and yell with pain. and throw
his bleeding victim trembling at the
feet of the courageous performer. In
another moment, however. all the wild
beasts were lashed into fury by the
sight Of the blood, and no one in the
assembly believed that Bidel could es-

for the humblest homes are happiest |;
if love and contentment dwell therein !;
bright and pleasant, always fair, with
a longing to be there, is pleasant
home Let US then strive to make our
homes both peat and tasteful. where
each heart will rest happy, and where
the purest thoughts will linger. 'Tis
home where the heart is, be it ever so
humble" How true this is, and how
pleasant to be able to cherish happy
thoughts of home-to know wherever
we may be. that We have home which
will be made more homelike and happy
by our presence. We cannot do too
much to make our homes happy ones
We want no jar there, nor anything
else that will mar the pleasure and
Of its inmates. believe
that if women would try as hard to
make their homes pleasant. as they do
to keep up to fashion in regard to dress.
etc., the world would be much better
off than it is. Do not think now that
I am a sour old bachelor, for l belong
to the opposite sex. and l believe in
rights SO far as they contribute
TO home happiness and no further.
