Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1890-03-02

TO be oblivious offhe fact that the work
before them is great work, that out Of
this whir of machinery, this apparent
abode of all that is disturbing, there is
going on work of evangelization that
will not be limited by any confines in
reach Of her present vision.
Seeding may be q safety valve, but is
1t worth while to let the steam get so
nigh that the valve must be opened? Is
II not better to drive more slowly, or,
returning to the electric simile, turn the
current of gathering force in some way
that shall be less harmful than the
tongue? The use of this wire to carry off
an accumulation of this form of electric
fire is fraught with danger to the home
and to the mother. Lightning can be
carried off quietly and without imperil-
ling any If the safety rods are properly
adjusted. A common scold is
common nuisance and ought to be
abeted, therefore, while we are ready
to admit provocations occur daily in al
most every household, still for the sake
of all concerned it is well not to be pro-
voked to 1t. Let the dear mother re-
member in the midst of her many vexa-
tons that she ennobles the humblest
duty by self control, and that by example
she is intoxicating virtue that has been
made Christian grace, and more de-
servedly than when exercised in the
family.
