Oh, patient heart of woman,
Who waits from the early dawn,
Til the latest night birds omen,
Has left the still air and gone.
Who waits for barred doors to unfasten,
And show her the light of day;
Who prays for the dawn to hasten
And give her the right of way"
Who looks for the night, so eager
For the rest that it may bring;
Who catches the crumbs, tho meager,
That men from their tables fling,
Because of the hope within her.
The promise to be fulfilled,
And knows it cannot long defer,
That whatso' He hath willed.
Tho dull the eye and weary,
And painfully throbs the brain,
The days not all dreary-
Nor DOH she wait !'lvaiia
So sure as the sky is above u.s.
So sure as the earth is below,
The woman who patiently waits thus,
And works, will reap treasure, know.

Be brave, tho cold winds chill thee through,

EVERY woman who is mistress of a household,
and especially every MOTHER should make it her
business to find out what the family income is as
well as from whence derived, in order that she
may gauge the household expenditures in accord
ance with the family income, and thereby prevent
all needless extravaganza. Much of the misery of
the world, the unfortunate failures in life and the
dsgraeeful bankruptcies in business might have
been prevented by calling timely family conclave
for the purpose of devising ways and means by
which to cut the home coat according to the fam
lily cloth.

has seen of his young aud hand
some bride. She was seen and rec
ognized on the streets that after
noon, but she disappeared sudden
" some time during the evening
and has not been seen nor heard of
since. The groom has made
diligent inquiry aud search for her
out all in vain. She cannot be
traced to anyone's house nor can
any account be given of her by
railroad men. The young lady was
of a good and highly respected fam

of her?' and the question may be
repeated and echoed until her name
fades from the memory of man.
