the question why she allowed her
children and husband to litter" up
every room in the house, and the
sentiment will find Judgement in the
heart of every home-loving person in
the land: "The marks of little mud
DIV feet upon the clean floor can be
easier removed than the stain when
those little feet go down into the
mud of the highway to evil The
prints of the little fingers on the
window pane can not shut out the
sunshine half so much as the shad-
ows that darken the mothers heart
over the one who is but a name
) through the coming years. And il
my John finds his home refuge
from care and trouble, and his great
| est happiness within Its four walls
. he can put his boots in the rocking
, chair and hang his coat up on the
: floor every day in the week. And i
Q | can stand it and he enjoys it, | car
l. not see that it is anybody else's bust
: ness. Exchange.
