The Home Circle.
il. A. BUSICK.

The ante-room to heaven is found in
loyal love and in an unsullied home life.
The right kind of a man allows the
Whole world to see by his manner. his
expression, and his life when he loves a
good woman, but he keeps for her alone
these demonstrations of affection which
need no audiance.
We wonder how many parents realize
that their child is book OF blank paper in
which shall be recorded the record of their
own lives. Be careful therefore what you
have written there for the world will read
1t. All your secret thoughts the child
will try to write.
Millionaire christians who have just
planned corner on wheat, which shall
pauperize thousands of their brother men
but shall swell their own millions into
billions, but bow their grey heads rever-
entity on the velvet backs Of costly peWs,
and glorify the name of that gentle being
who was born in a manager, and who
babe his followers to ''Do unto others as
they would be done by"
Sympathy and encouragement are the
spurs to greater deeds. One grain of
sympathy can be compared to a grain of
mustard seed but one seed planted and
replanted will be enough to finally spread
over the largest field. A living seed once
fell from flying birds beak into the
erevice of rock. 1t grew and multiplied
until finally it burst the rock in twain.
This is scientific fact, real happening.
Be not selfish with with your words of
encouragement and sympathy. There is
nothing SO Cheap and yet nothing can
be more valuable.
What this old world needs is more
sympathy and more encouragement.
Why does boy consider his mother his
best friend? Because he can carry to her
his troubles and feels that she under
stands and will sympathize with him.
Why does the self-same boy grown to be
a man seek a mate? More sympathy.
The companionship and encouragement
of kindred soul. We say man (and
that includes woman also) marries for
love- and what is love but sympathy
The way Of life is filled with dreary
places. To most of us, our pathways are
streWn with bitter disappointment. Our
weary feet, instead of treading velvet
cushions of green sod, stumble over
jagged rocks, it is then, that we seek an
oasis of sympathy. We long to pour
into sympathetic ears the tale of our
troubles our hopes and our ambitions. Ii
is then the value Of human sympathy is
appreciated.

WOMAN IN THE HOME.

In the home woman occupies position
of unlimited power and influence, if she
but knew it. Nowhere else can she ex-
ert such an influence upon the life of the
nation and the world at large. The mo.
ment she leaves the home in search of
power she leaves the sphere where hel
greatest power resides. One of the sad
dest and most menacing signs of the
times, to our mind, is the neglect of the
home of life, the ease with which divorces
are granted, the way in which children
are allowed to grow up on the streets, to
be out at all hours of the night to seek
pleasure away from the home.
Today there is tendency for woman to
look upon the cares of domestic life as
irksome. There is growing desire to
appear in public life. The quiet home
life is too uneventful, too humdrum.
Children are nuisance because they tie
the mother down.
Any movement which tends to weaken
the family tie, to break up the home life
lis dangerous in the extreme. In the home
and at the mothers knee, the men who
have been the worlds greatest leaders
have been trained.- In the home, at the
liIUtilCi hHCC3 kUOu AICHs ouo,6 iiSil
righteous men, patriotic men, the mer
upon whom the destinies Of the human
race depend, in whom lie the strength and
ethusiam of a nations life, in the home
these men are reared and nowhere else.
To meet the crisis which may arise al
any time in the life of a country like our
own, we must always have a vast re-
serve of loyal patriotism, good citizenship
sound morality and honest statesmen
ship, ready at hand to summon at a
moments notice. All this we must have
to preserve the nations life. And all this
depends almost entirely upon Woman,s
influence in the home. 1t is women who
saves and preserves the nations life. i
always must be so in the future as in the
past, not by voting, merely, but BY
patient devotion to her duty in the home
and family, by bringing up her children t
be trusted, relied upon to do the right
thing under any circumstances, at any
cost.

RAILROAD REPORTED CUT AND
FIERCE FIGHTING OCCURS
NORTH OF MUkDEN.
RUSSIANS ADMIT BLOODY DEFEAT
INSIST, HOWEVER, THAT THE RE-
TlREMENT Is NOT A DE-
clslvE DISASTER.
WAR DISPATCHES SUMMARIZED.

The Japanese evidently are closing
In to the north and west of Mukden
and the days dispatches make it clear
that Field Marshal Oyama is making
desperate efforts to interpose strong
force between the retreating Russians
and Tie pass. That he has in meas
ure succeeded is indicated by dis
patch from General Sakharoff saying
that several fierce attacks were made
on our north front during the night,
and a Toxic dispatch asserting that
the Japanese had cut the railway
north of Mukden.
The fighting is now raging around
the ancient tombs and General Kuro-
patkin reports that the Japanese have
assumed the offensive before Mukden
from the north and northwest.
The reports from Japanese sources
Indicate that the whole attacking line
has advanced and that the retreat OF
the Russians is in progress.
st. Petersburg is without advices
concerning the situation, but in Off
cial circles hope seems to be centered
In the belief that Kuropatkin will be
able to extricate his army and retreat
safely to the Tie pass positions.
Most of the days dispatches relate
to past operations and show that the
fighting has been of desperate char
acter, with heavy losses on both sides.

ACCEPTED AS A FACT.
Report That Rojestvensky's Squadron
Is Returning.


Paris, March l0.-The Temps dis
patch from Madagascar announcing
that Admiral Rojestvensky's entire
squadron was returning to Jibutil,
French Somaliland, is not yet officially
confirmed, but it is generally accepted
as being fact and appears to be CO.
incident with Russias cancelling large
orders for supplies and munitions to
be forwarded to the Russian Second
Pacific squadron.
Russian officials here recently dis
cussed the probability of the squadron
turning back. 1t was pointed out that
the principal mission of Rojestvensky
ended with the fall of Port Arthur and
that, therefore. it was desirable that
he should not proceed.
Captain Clado, who is RojestVen-
sky's tactical chief of staff, was ex-
pected to join the squadron on the con-
clusion of the inquiry of the interna-
tional commission into the North sea
incident, but it is significant that Clado
received orders to return to st. Peters
burg.

POSTAL AFFAIRS BEING PRo1ED
President Orders Rigid investigation
of Masten Contracts.

q rigid investigation of contracts for
twine and the Bundy time clock which

under the administration of j. M.
Masten as chief clerk to the first as
sistant postmaster general is being

These contracts, though touched on
Incidentally in the report of former

Bristow, are declared to be lacking in
detail, hence the special investigation
at this time.
During the general Investigation Mr..
Masten was transferred from his for
mer position to that of assistant su-
perintendent of the railway mail serv-
ice, although his dismissal was recon
mended by First Assistant Postmaster

Toxic, March 10.-The Japanese

The headquarters of the Japanese

In the Singking direction our force,
after defeating the enemy at Mashun-

While not leaning in the least toward
the, idea of free trade, The LEADER does
believe the products OF Americas island
possessions should be admitted into
this country free of duty. This applies
20 Philippine sugar and everything else
on the list. The question has been ar
gued on the floor of Congress until it
is something of chestnut and every
man who reads is familiar with all the
pros and cons. If these islands really
belong to us, the mere fact that they
are separated from us by water should
cut no more figure than the fact that
the sugar producing states oil this
country are connected with Washing
ion, ID. c., by rail.
