There are too many homes in

APPRECIATION.

Appreciation is one ofthe Christ
like emotions of the human heart.
To look at motives and not at re-
suits is the right thing to do. How
often the best laid plans lead tc
failure. A word of Appreciation
has led many discouraged heart
to pick up the broken threads and
weave them into a new web aftel
they had lain among tattered ideals
for months or years. Kind words
bring memories that echo through
the years long after the lips thai
uttered them have crumbled te
dust. Children carry the memory

At Ozark last week Abraham Porter
was sentenced to ten years in the pen.
itentiary for the murder Of his wife.
The plea was self defense and the evi
dence was strong enough to procure
this comparatively light verdict. AT
the close OF the trial there came near
being another murder, Allen Com.
stock, stepson OF Porter and son of the
murdered woman, endeavoring to shoot
Porter. Had not the officers been on
their guard, having been warned OF
threats made by Comstock, another
murder would have resulted.

IN THE HomE NEST
Cheerful Evening Reverles for Tired
Mothers
LIFE is WHAT WE MAKE IT.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox has faith
fully expressed a common truth in
a little poem entitled "Compan-
ionship," commencing:
"Laugh and the world laughs with you;
Weep and you weep alone,
For the sad old earth must borrow It's mirth,
But has trouble enough Of its own.
''Slng and the hills will answer;
Sigh and 1t 10 lost In the air;
The echoes bound to n joyful sound,
But shrink from vocing care. -
One Of the first and hardest les
sons which the novice has to learn
upon entering the great busy
world of toll and tumult is that
the rushing, struggling, striving
public has no interest in the grief
OF any individual. 1t is too fully
occupied with its own advance
ment to spend thought or care
on what does not concern or effect
its welfare
When we come to investigate
we will find that trouble is uni
versal and is more equally meted
out than We suppose. 1t comes
to us all in one form or another,
sometimes in disguise, but it is the
same ugly spectre when the mask
is thrown aside. Every heart has
its own burden which wealth can
not tighten, nor honor alleviate.
1t may be in the hidden depths,
unseen by human eyes, but it is
there nevertheless, and will be un-
til the spirit throws off this "mor-
tai coil" and leaves it behind with
its earthly tenement. The only
difference is that one has the
moral courage to meet or over
come or else submit bravely to the
inevitable, while the other makes
no effort to lift itself from the
stream into which the tide OF cir.
cumstances has placed it, but
wastes the strength, which if
properly exerted would put it on
its feet, in vain regrets and useless
repining.
Whatever your trials and dis
appointments, keep them to your
self; they only worry your friends
and vex those who have no claim
upon your condolences. Keep a
bright face, a cheerful word and a
hopeful heart. Garry in your
bearing the dignity of self-esteem
and let the air of prosperity fl
you like a garment. Extend to
the world a cordial hand, and re.
member that life is for the most
part what we make it.
Do not complain of your wife's
extravaganza with cigar in your
, mouth.
, Whoever takes little child in.
to his love, may have very room,
heart, but that child will fill i,
out. The children keep us from
=. growing old and cold; they cling
r to our garments with their little
hands and impede our progress tc
petrifaction; they win US back with
', their pleading eyes, from crue
i, care; they never cucumber us a,
t all. A poor old couple with ne
(. one to love them, is most pitifu

call them in old age when en-
veloped in the shadows of life.
They are like the perfume of the
violet that lifts its head above the
spring SHOWS and whispers to them
of the sunshine. Money cannot
buy, intellect cannot create so rare
a gem as true kindness. 1t is
heart product and needs the ten
derest culture. 1t is killed by in
difference and enfeebled by neg
lect.
The gleeful life of happy child
ren is the best home music and
the graceful figures of childhood
are the best statuary. We are all
kings and queens in the cradle.
A home without a child! 1t is
like lantern without a candle; a
garden and no flowers; a vine and
no grapes; brook and no water
gurgling and gushing in its chan
mel.
Beware of the woman who talks
about heaven in church, and about
her neighbors on the street.
While Robert G. Ingersol made
for himself legion of enemies by
his attacks upon christianity, all
must admire his eloquence. No
man in America could more beauti.
fully frame a sentence, and his
eloquent remarks at the grave of
his brother lead one to doubt if
the great inhdel was half so bad as
his own words, at times, pictured
him to be. A man who uttered so
many beautiful things had but
room in his heart for atheism with
its cold, revolving, heathenish
teachings. In a symposium on
woman, Col. Robert G. lngersol
was asked to contribute his views.
He replied as follows:
at takes a hundred men 10
make an encampment, but one
woman can make a home. not
only admire women as the most
beautiful object ever created, but
| reverence her as the redeemed
glory Of humanity, the sanctuary
Of all virtues, the pledge of all
perfect qualities of heart and head.
1t is because women are so much
better that men that their faults
are considered greater. The one
thing in this world that is constant,
the only peak that rises above the
clouds, the one window in which
the light burns forever, the one
star that darkness cannot quench,
is woman's love. 1t rises to the
greatest heights, it sinks to the
lowest depths, it forgives the most
cruel injuries. A woman's love is
the perfume OF the earth. This
is the real love that subdues the
earth; the love that has wrought
all miracles Of art; that gives us
music all the way from the cradle
, song to the grand closing SYM
phony that bears the soul away on
wings of fire. Above that is great
er than power, sweeter than life
, and stronger than death"

five feet from a scaffold yesterday
morning of the Fisher-Leaf factory,
at Sixteenth and High streets. Sat
urley was painting the caves of the
building, and was standing near the
end of the scaffold, which was sup
ported by ropes, when one of them
broke, loosing his support. He grab
bed one of the dangling ropes and
held to it for a short time, but his
grasp slipping, he fell headlong and
lighted on a stone pavement below.
After a few minutes Saturday was
removed TO the University Hospital,
where an examination was made of
his injuries. TWAS revealed that he
fell ON his side, which was terribly
bruised, but no bones were broken.

his life. He was knocked senseless
and remained where he fell from 6
p. m. until 5 a. m. the next morning
when he recovered conciounness and
called for help and was rescued. He
was badly hurt but recovered.
