Home.


There is a vast difference between q
house and a home. The house is but
the building and the furniture-the
outward shelter and the gathering
place of the household. The home in
cludes the kindly family affection, the
thoughtful care and ready sympathy
and mutual confidence and trust of the
memb ers. A true home breathes the
atmosphere of love. A child should be
made to feel that his homes indeed q
home-the happiest place in the world
to hin-not merely an outward shelter
and resting place. but center of en-
joyment, sanctificd and purified by
love. the thought and remem brance of
which shall be the safeguard of his
life as he goes forth to the world, Civ
ing strength and proportion to his
character. and turning his thought to
all that may prepare for the heavenly
home when the scenes of earth shall
have passed away.-Detroit Fres Press.

he was SO wealthy that the loss did not
hurt him much.
Sir Leonard Tilley completed two
