record in the old family bible
and not in the bank. Maybe you
are a bachelor, frosty and forty.
Then poor fellow Saturday night
is nothing to you as you are moth
ing to anybody. Get a wife, blue
eyed OF black-eyed, but above all,
t%rue-eyed. Get a little home-no
matter how little a sofa. Just to
hold two, or two and a half, in it,
on a Saturday night, and then read
this paragraph by the light in your
wife's eyes, and thank God and
take courage.
How many a kiss has been given,
how many a curse, how many a
caress, how many a look of hate,
how many a kind word, how many
a promise has been broken, how
many a soul lost, how many a
loved one lowered into the narrow
chamber, how many a babe has
gone from earth to heaven, how
many a crib or cradle stands silent
now which last Saturday night
held the rarest of treasures of the
heart. A week is a life. A week
is a history. A week marks events
of sorrow and gladness whic h
people have never heard. Go home
to your family man of business!
Go home you heart erring wand
erer! Go home to the chair that
awaits you, wronged waif on life's
breakers! Go home to those you
love man oftoil, and give one night
to the joys and comforts fast fly
ing by! Leave your books with
complex figures, your dirty shop,
your busy store! Rest with those
you love, for God only knows what
the next Saturday night will bring
you! Draw close around the fam
lily hearth; Saturday night has
awaited your coming in sadness,
in tears, and silence. Go home to
those you love, and as you bask in
the loved presence and meet to e
turn the loved embrace of your
hearts pets, strive to be a better
man, and bless God for giving his
children so dear a stepping stone
in the river to the eternal as Satur-
day night.

"Some women are always on the
go" is the extravagant remark one
often hears and it is not always the
expression of envy. Strange to
say there are those who think wo-
men do to much travling. Bless our
souls, they don't do half enough.
The woman whose world is in the
four of her house, even
though she be intellectually above
the average and surrounded by evil
dences of wealth and fine taste, is
necessarily o narrow minded
and bigoted than her sister, whose
mental vi ion has expanded under
the influences of new scenes and
balmier skies, free from mental
perplexities and drudgeries. She
who has been son the go" occa-
sionly is the better mother, the
more intelligent helpmeet and the
sweetest companion.

TABLE TALK

You will find that a great deal of
character is impaired and receive
ed at the table. Parents too often
forget this; and therefor instead
of swallowing your food in sullen
silence; instead of brooding over
your business; instead of severely
talking about others, let the con-
v~ersation at the table be genial,
kind, social and cheering. Don't
bring disagreeable things to the
table in your conversation any
more than you wouldin your dish
es. For this reason, too, the more
good company you have at your
table, the better for your children.
Every conversation with company
at the table is an education to the
family. Hence the intelligence
and the refinement and appropri-
ate behavior of q family which is
given to hospitality. Never feel
that intelligent visitors can be any
thing but blessing to you and
yours. How few have gotten hold

SATURDAY NIGHT REvER1Es.

Saturday night seems to have the
happy faculty OF making people
human; setting their hearts to
beating as they used to do before
the world turned them into war
drums and Jared them to pieces
with tattoos. On Saturday night
the ledger closes with a clash, the
lron-doored vault comes to with q
bang, click goes the key in the
lock. II IL Saturday and the busi-
mess man breathes free again.

been ajar all the week gently

DE KIND IN LITTLE THINGS


The sunshine of life is made up
of very little beams that are bright
all the time. In the nursery, on
the playground and in the school,
room, there is room all the time for
little acts of kindness, that cost
nothing but are worth more than
gold and silver To give up some
thing when giving up will prevent
unhappiness to yield when per-
sisting will chafe and fret others
to go n little way around rather
than come up against another; to
take an i'll word or a cross look
rather than to resent it; these are
the ways in which clouds and
storms are kept off and a pleasant,
smiling sunshine secured even in
a humble home, among very poor
people, as well as in families in
higher station. Much that we term
the miseries of life would be avoid
ed by adopting this rule of conduct.

V

1t is very true that almost any
husband who is afflicted with a
bad wife, or imagines he is, has
only proved himself to blame for
it; has only proved his own inca
pacity for the married life. A
wife's demands are usually simple
enough, if not always just-and
these complied with, she is likely
to be all the most exacting spouse
could ask-to be loved better than
any n else in the world, and to
have her own sweet way in all
things. If she can achieve the
latter without seeming to do it so
much the better; she is philoso-
phical enough to be satisfied with
the reality of power, whoever has
the semblance. Besides, most
women are married at an age when
their characters are still mobile
and plastic, and can be shaped
in the mould of a husbands will.
AT least, SO the husbands are fond
of fancying, and if, mistaken be-
ings, they are oftener shaped than
shaping, they are happy in never
knowing it.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS do.
Their UnCeaSing Work Keeps
Us Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body pas
SEES through the kidneys oncee every
three minutes. The kidneys filter
the blood. They work night and
day. When healthy they remove
about 500 grains of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part
OF this impure matter is left in the
blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms-pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot,
dry skin. rheumatism, govt, gravel
disorders of the eyesight and hear
ing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
bility, drowsiness, dropsy, de-
posits in the urine, etc. But if
you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kid
neys.

the north western part of Mont
gomery City, Mo-, says: 81 found

WOMAN WHO TALKS
HER WORRIES AT HOME AS AN
ANNOYANCE TO HUSBAND.
When the Man Comes Home He Wants
to Hear Something Else Besides
the Rasping Side of Troubles.

When a man comes home from bust.
ness there is II subject that should
be tabooed between husband and wife;
the days worries. A man is supposed
to leave the cares and a%nnoyances of
office hours downtown, and a woman
should suppress hers the moment she
hear the front door open. If there is
a sympathetic bond uniting the two
hearts the man will easily guess that
the worry lines are due to things which
have gone wrong, and he will be CRATE
full for the cheerfulness of the uncom-
planning wife, while she, on the other
hand, will, in a swift intuition, grasp
h burdens of the harassed business
man. He has come home to rest, to
life, and these moments are to refresh
him for the nex days struggle.
There is no man in the world SO un-
selfish as the American husband and
father. Perhaps he lacks the polish
which comes of easy work and much
leisure, for this is a luxury that the
American v INDUCES in unless the

counted as such. The American million
afre permits himself about one-fifth of
the vacation demanded by the English
tradesman. Time is something he can
not afford to spend. He has a family,
sons and daughters who must have adj
vantages denied his own youth, and so
he works on into a sordid middle age
that has established a habit of work
that cannot be broken. This Is true of
the man on a salary, and it is to the
home and the wife that he looks for the
reward for his many sacrifices. But
does he always receive it?
We insist that the American m
is not spoiled, say the San Francisco
Bulletin, but can we prove that she
is not se~lf-centered and selfish? The
great middle class is the majority in
every civilized community, and of the
vast army of women whose husbands
are counted fairly we'll off, how many
stop to think Of the effort that 1t costs
to keep the wife we'll dressed, the chill

The bills are paid and she has money
In her purse, and the average wife
stops there. She accepts; she does
not question when she makes a fresh
demand.
She tells of her worries with her
dressmaker, whose price has gone up:
she complains of the ervan or sew
ants and ~recounts the iwrritations of
the day; she tells how unmanageable
the children are and how expensive is
the living. In short, she pours her tale

The Clever Fox.

The rector of a parish near Oxford,
England, tells this fox story: AS he
was walking across some fields dur.
ing a recon fox hunt he heard the
cry of hounds. The fox ran into
the next field. A fox came running
toward him and trotted along by his
side, just as a dog would do, wagging
his brush. The rector walked on. The
huntsman, looking about, saw nothing
but the clergyman and what seemed
to be his dog, and galloped away In
another direction. AS soon as the
coast was clear the fox gave a whisk
of his tail and disappeared through a
hedge.

Temperance on the Rampage in tn
Kingdom.


We learn from the last weeks
papers of Fulton, Mo-, that the
temperance people of Galloway
county are n a rampage. The
city of Fulton has raised saloon
licenses to $4,000 per annum. Con-
sequently the two saloons that
have been in operation there for
sometime past have refused to re-
new their license hence that city
is now practically "dry."
The temperance people are also
making ready to take a vote in
that county, on local option this
fall. 1t is said that the plans of
the temperance people are not
yet fully matured but it is prob
able that a large executive COM
mittee will be appointed to man
age the campaign and that pub
lie meetings will be held both in
town and country and that promi-
nent speakers both home and
foreign talent will be put into the
field during the campaign. In
this connection it may be remark
ed that Al or AZ counties of the
state have adopted local option
and q number other counties will
take q vote on the proposition
during the next few months.

business will soon be confined to
