VALUE OF GENTLE SPEECH.
Equal to Sunshine to Light Up Dark
and Weary Hours

A single bitter word may disquiet
an entire family for whole day. One
surly glance casts a gloom over the
household; while smile of sunshine
may light up the darkest and weariest
hours. Like unexpected flowers which
spring sdp along our footpath, full of
freshness, fragrance and beauty, so
kind words and gentle acts and sweet
dispositions make glad the sacred
spot called home. No matter how
humbled the abode. fit be sweetened
with kindness and smiles the heart
Will turn longingly toward it from all
the tumult OF the world, and home, If
II be ever so homely, will be the dear
est spot beneath the circuit of the
sun. IL -, 49,.
Between a man and his wife nothing
ought to rule but love. Authority is
Tor children and servants, yet not
without sweetness = ,s>=+'.,

an effort to make this country a world
power,

The war in tho east between
Japan and Russia is fully corro-
borating the late General Sher-
mans definition of war. 70 the
present day generation the death
list of the oontesting armies is un
appalling and seemingly need
less sacrifice of human life. HUI
manity is startled at the slaughter
and the lesson will not be lost upot
the people of the great civilized
nations of the world. War, in the
future, while probably not entirely
absolete, will not be entered into
without the people reckoning the
terrible cost to themselves, and in
ternational disputes must come to
be settled by methods less dc sstruc
tive to life and property.

The people now fully under
stand the strange quiet which had
pervaded almost the whole country
during the presidential campaign
just closed, a quiet and unooncern
which kept astute pol licians guess
ing as to what would be the out
come of it. The cause of this
anomalous condition is now appar-
ent, the people had their minds
made up as to what they were 70
ing to do and refused to become
excited and disturbed over the
charges and allegations of the par
ty in opposition to the administra'
ton. The verdict of the voters
has been "stand pat" and ''let vel
enough alone" They were satis'
fed with the conditions and with
the party which had brought them
about. The overwhelming major
ity given President Roosevelt
shows that the people has alwaye
been with him on those policies fol
which the Democrats had tried to
condemn hiro. In other words,
that party bad again elected to get
on the unpopular side of great
public questions.
