 New York, April 22.-"There, fath-
 CT. said a woman 65 years of age, we
 have been paying rent for thirty-eight
 years and are ju-t where we were
 when we began, for we own no shelter.
 Had we started out when young with the determination to own a house, however small, we should now, in all probability, have a clear title to one. As it is, I suppose we shall continue to pay rent IS long as we live
 This is 2 significant remark. Many other couples with similar experience understand the feelings of this woman and for the benefit Of the younger gen. eration We make hsr remark the sub- ject of cur Sunday Morning Talk
 A most worthy ambiticn for a young married couple to have is the ambition to own house. Self-deniaIs made with this end in view are profitably made, When, years h5nce, the husband comes home at night and takes from his
 
 ment on the house it will be Q time in which he and his wife, in their great joy, will f-el that the end gained is W0ith all the 0anial5 which it will have cost. Think of it., Working and s2Vir for a house Of ones ownI A house in which every improvement has Q different meaning than it could have with the person who lives in another's property. What satisfaction there is when other denials follow those whica are earning the title of ownership, and things are added for increased comfort in the home!
 Now a carefully selected paper shuts out the white walls of another room. and warns it into beauty. Now another picture is hung. Not costly picture, but a very satisfactory onet Thanks to the modern mechanical arts which reproduce so cheaply the products CT fine art, people of moderate means can have what otherwise could be had by only the favored few.
 A HEAVEN HERE BELOW.
 Just observe how this desire to own 8 house will show itse.f in all that 1 these ambitious people do. The holi- | days come and Harry gives Madga | fine new rccke-, and Madge gives | Harry a handsome n5Ev lamp. Well" | says the hard-hean5ad fellow, why | call the lamp his and the chair hers? | Won't they both use things, and why call them presents? Why not make | it @ practice to wait until the holidays | come and then buy our yearly supply | of house furnishings and make them | answer for Chris tnas presnts? What fun is there in doing this 'way2" | Fun" Why it is joy to these people | Sitting in that chair on Christmas day and seeing that lamp lighted for the | first time on Christmas evening, and | knowing that they have made their 1 Christmas gifts count in this practical | way toward furnishing the house for which they are paying little by little, | is much more of a heaven to these two loving. hopeful, ambitious people than you arc aware. If you haven't na- ture that is made happier by seeing this coJrDie enjoy themselves like this then you would not know what to do | with the New Jerusalem if you owned it yourself.
 Springtime comes, and how much it means to this couple as they plant their seeds and set out the decorative plants on the land they are paying for.
  frightened by 2 loving purpose. What a gleam Cf saticfacJion in Harry's eye when he comes upstairs and says to Afadge, ''I want you to come to the easement and look at 5he shelf which have put up in the archway for you so that you can have q place to put your preserved fruit this fall" What joy spreads ever Madge's face when her husband comes home some even- ng and she leads him in triumph to show him the taste and ingenuity which she has displayed in using the ,rimSC2 Seatin slcaVe-liningS from his 3ld coat to cover a box and convert il nto a jewel case for the dressing room able Twenty years from now, when his couple can afford to buy a costly ewei case, it won't give half the hap 2ipsss to them that this one does.
 Let Ha.ry CEn block of houses by md by and he will net speak Of the act with half the pride he now feels $ he brings his conversation with an round to the point where le can rlSntiCn that the house Is near y paid for; and if, he adds, any mis- Ortune should overtake Us, that wife ,f mine, with her fine management cf affairs, could, on a pinch, make a little money go a great way. That is it. The old story. Love wed- led to 9 purpose brings daily joy. These people feel proud of what they re accomplishing, and it is right they hOuld,
