Our Home.
Written for the JOURNAL.

Our Home.
Written for the JOURNAL.
There is hardly a child in Ameri
ca that is not familiar with that
beautiful song, Home, Sweet
Home" the pathetic words that go
to the heart of every one who fully
realizes what this word in it's true
sense really signifies.
The ideal home is a bit of heaven.
1t is the place where the thoughts
and the hearts of every member of
the family fondly linger, and where
one longs to rest after weary day
of incessant battling with the outer
world. 1t is where love, peace and
quiet surround us; where the dark
est cloud takes on a silver lining;
where our troubles are shared by
loved ones, and thus our burdens
are lightened; where the efforts of
our 1abors are appreciated, and
kind, loving words help US onward
and upward. Such home, and
"be it ever SO humble" is a haven
of rest, and the love that dwells be-
meath this roof makes it the most
beautiful place on earth, which we
would not exchange for the most
palatial residence.
Yet, how many such homes do we
enter? Do not many members of
some families when exchanging
their elegant street costumes for
simple house gowns, also lay aside
with these their courteous manners
and kindly smiles, reserving these
for strangers, while sullen faces
and fault-fnding words greet those
that, by the ties of blood and love,
have the greater claim for their
consideration? Home" is to them
a place where no self-control need
be practiced, where every member
allows his or her temper to roam at
will, place where se1fishness reigns
supreme, and bitter, sarcastic words
give vent TO pent up feelings that
are so carefully concealed from
strangers. To others home"
means simply boarding house, a
mere place in which to eat and sleep,
with no thought of doing their
share to make it pleasant for other
members of the family. They
follow their own inclinations and
pleasures, regardless of the work
and trouble these may cause,
accepting all done for them as
something quite natural and perfect
1y self evident, with no words of
appreciation ever spoken, or desire
to return in a measure some of the
favors shown them.
Again others, as soon as a chance
opens, will leave their home to seek
employment elsewhere, even be it at
a distant city, and so cast aside the
burdens that were their lot to help
bear when at home, making life thus
still harder for those remaining;
besides the void they leave there is
a constant pain accompanied by the
thought, that home has not been the
dearest p1q on earth to them We
should not, unless necessity de-
mands it, shift our burdens to other
shoulders and infict the pain our
absence will create. For some day,
when the door of the dear old home
is closed forever, when there is no
more "home coming" when there
is only a roof to shelter us, but no
one who looks out fondly for us, no
smiling welcome to greet us, no
gentle rebuke for our hardness, ah!
then, it will be too late for vain
regrets, then, only then, is the time
when the home that is no more will
fill our hearts with longing. But
only memoryis left to rise accusing

Mr.. Smiths Surprise.

Mr. Smiths Surprise.
Wife, had a surprise to-day,
And 1t came from Neighbor Brown,
lie said he's going to join the lodge
That's starting up in this town.
And / said you foolish fellow,
VIII you swear your freedom awayg"
But looking grave, he slowly said,
DO you think I'm free today?''
You could We knocked me down with a feather
AS looked in his face to see
If Brown were going crazy
Orif it were only me.
Then said |, ''wny man! you are free to go
To the bar-room any day.
TO take drink with pleasant friend;
And no one can say you nay.
But he said TIN bound in chains so strong.
There's no help, fear, for me-
But if any pledge can break those chains.
viii, indeed, be free
Now what do you think he meant, wife.
That he should talk that wayg
OF course, know, he has his sprees,
And drinks some every day,
But not much more than the rest of us,
And I'm sure we all are free,
For we can drink a social glass,
Or we can let it be.
What's that you say? You should think wee
try
To let it be while?
Why, wife, how funny you do talk!
You really make me smile.
There is no harm in drinking
When you know just when to stop
I'm sure, I'm just as good as men,
Who never drink drop.
OF course know, had bad luck,
When sold my jersey COW;
And lost the price got for her
You needn't bring that up now.
You women do make such fuss
About little thing.
Yes, remember that heavy horse,
traded for last spring.
But then wasn't drunk, Mrs Smith,
You just remember that.
Then what did hang my boots up for
And throw down my Sunday hat?
I'm very absent minded, love,
T'is a fault must confess.
Wouldn you like some money, dear,
To buy you new silk dress?

Tromse, Norway, Aug. 13.-Evelyn
Il. Baldwin and several members of the
crew of the America have made state
ments before notary public regarding
the dispute between Mr.. Baldwin and
Capt. Johanssen' of the America.
According to Baldwins statement
Capt. Johanssen refused to obey the or
ders of the ice pilot and that necessi-
tated his removal from the command.
Baldwin also says that Capt. Johanssen
left the vessel at Honingsvaag without
Baldwin's knowledge or consent. The
relations between Baldwin and the ice
pilot were always of the best, the
statement asserts. and it is added that
while the death of half the dogs from

is confident that within II months the

tude en- route to the north pole The
