DIGNITY OF LABOR.

DIGNITY OF LABOR.
We believe the friends OF this
department, and if we feel the
pulse of our readers correctly that
means all our subscribers, will
read with relish few thoughts on
woman's work and compensation
for the same.
One Of the fashionable sins Of
the present time is the sin of idle
ness. This may not apply to the
ladies of our town, but this evil
exists to an alarming extent, es-
pecially so in the cities where COM
petent ladies fritter away time as
if there were no claims upon them
in the busy concerns of life. There
are persons whom the stress OF
circumstances compel to work, but
the work is too often done under
protest. There is a growing dis.
taste for housekeeping. While
all honest labor is honorable there
is nothing more so than the care
of home.
The wages of women were meyer
so high as now, yet it is almost i'm
possible to procure the services Of
a good woman at any price, for
the reason that labor is looked up.
on as degrading. Young women
turn to all sorts of office work,
where snares and temptations be-
set them, because they can dress
better and keep their hands whit
er than they can when doing kitch-
en- work
The wives and mothers of a
century ago were proud to exhibit
the result of their industry in the
manufacture OF cloth and the max
ing of garments for their families,
There is no call for such work in
our day, yet there are enough calls
to duty in every home to employ
the housekeeper. Home to many
women means nothing more than
laundry where they take their
clothes to he washed and ironed;
to many men place to eat and
sleep, their evenings being largely
spent at clubs or billiard halls. The
old fashioned home-keepers have
becoma almost a lost quantity. So
/ cietes OF various kinds occupy
much of their time. The children
are sent to school at the age OF six
and the mothers are at liberty to
fit about until they return at noon,
=. when the lunch prepared outside
D the home, is placed before the
family and the duties until high
, twelve are discharged. The after
moons and evenings are given to
s society. Of course this does moi
t apply to many Ozark homes, where
we live more naturally hence more
nationally, but there is a genera
tendency to neglect the claims o.
s the family for outside pleasure
r We have met some women who
when asked if they keep house
blushingly reply, eve do ligh

boarding"

MANY are the rough places we
tread from the cradle to the grave;
many are the sighs, tears and
discouragements; but we can ex-
tract JOY from the most desert
places on the way and amidst the
most piercing heartaches by the
thought that we have made others
happy and that there is perpetual
morning only little way off. At
every step of the way we travel let
us gather all the flowers that bloom
and revel amid all the beauty there
is, but never forgetting that the
sweetest and best happiness is that
which comes from a consciousness
of loving and being loved; and we
can never love or be loved unless
we are willing to live for others.

who can degrade the most honor

who can degrade the most honor
able calling.
The busy men and women of the
world are they who have attained
to greatness, Many such have en-
dured hardships and practiced
rigid economy TO enable them to
meet the demands of large family,
and the greatest men this country
has produced have been those who
have labcred with hands and brain.
After acquiring competency,
remembering the years that are
gone, they admit their working
years were their happiest years.
Honest poverty should be re-
spected and not scorned. 1t was
in the homes of the lowly that we
oftenest found Christ when upon
the earth, and in our day it can be
truthfully said that we meet Him
there oftener than elsewhere.
Work is a moral and physical
uplifter; it is panacea for sorrow.
Idleness brings moral decay and
furnishes an incentive to crime.
The avalanche of crime that is
sweeping over our beautiful land is
largely due to the fact that too
many would rather steal than work.
The life of duty, not the life Of
mere ease or pleasure, is the kind
of life which makes the great men
and women. The best prize that
life offers is the chance to work at
work worth doing.

SUGGESTIONS FOR HUSBANDS.

SUGGESTIONS FOR HUSBANDS.
Do not jest with your wife up
on a subject in which there is dam
ger of wounding her feelings.
Remember that she treasures every
word you utter. Do not speak of
some virtue in another mans wife
to remind your own of fault. Do
not reproach your wife with person
al faults, for, if she has sensibility,
you inhict a wound difficult to heal.
Do not treat your wife with in
attention when in company; it
touches her pride, and she will not
respect you more or love you better
for it. Do not uphraid your wife in
the presence of a third person; the
sense of your disregard for her
feelings will prevent her from ac-
knowledging her fault. Do not
entertain your wife with praising
the beauty and accomplishments
OF other women. II you would
have pleasant home and cheer
full wife, pass your evenings under
your own roof. Do not be stern
and silent in your own house and
remarkable for sociability else
where.
