Women Neglect Their Homes.
This is the Gods truth and you

There are lots Of women who are
absolutely useless. The most good
for-nothing woman In Gods world is
some society women who cares moth
Ing for anything but society, frappes
and fine clothes.
II tell you what is the matter with
you mothers. You are neglecting
your home for the lodge, for your
clubs, for your libraries. AMI your
society.
You ought TO At yourselves to be
the intellectual companion OF your
| children instead OF letting the saloon
get them. You should spend more
time with your children.
The learning OF the school and
college will soon fade out OF the
minds OF girl and boy, but what
they learn az your knee will stick
when all else Is gone.
There are few things think more
important than conversation. Think
OF the good we can do in our homes
or the pain we can give with our
tongues.
Loving conversation is great
panacea many a time. In many a
home there is none. There is no
regretful good-by when the children
go 10 school, no affectionate greeting
when they come home, no Preside
chats-meals are eaten in silence.
The old man never speaks except
when he growls and wants some one
to pass him more grub; for all prac

How a Mother Taught Son to Lie.

7 Nation Needs Home More Than
Laws.
THE mother of Nero was an old
murderess, and il is no wonder that
he fiddled while Rome burned. The
mother OF Patrick Henry was elo-
quent, and that ls the reason why
every schoolboy and girl knows
Give me liberty or give me death
I'm the home, authority is needed
today more than at any time IN the
history OF this nation. | have met
upon the arena OF the conflict every
form OF man and beast imaginable TO
meet, and I am convinced tonight
that neither law nor Gospel can
make a nation without home author
ity and home example. Those two
things are needed.
THE boy who has a wholesome
home and surroundings and a judi
cious control included does not often
find his way into the reformatory,
And that parent who is afraid to
correct his child may be compelled
to see the State correct him In some
State institution. You may see him
yanked from your arms because you
are derelict IN your duty.
Anarchy is not born In the an
archistic riots of the Haymsrket; n
is kindled in the home.
What the child is in the home,
he will be in the streets and In pub
lie.
Hear me. Forty-six million farm
ers In this country are being taught
how to take care of the hog. what
slop 10 feed him, how TO feed him, 10
add few extra pounds 10 his flesh
and an extra curl 10 his tail. And
We have got in this country % uni
versities that have a department for
the study OF the American hog, and
only one university that has a de-
partment for the study of the Amer
| lean boy and that is Clark University
at Worcester, Mass.
I'm other words, we think more OF
stopping and feeding the hog than
OF feeding and training the boy and
keeping him out OF hell. We are
going daffy over money; we are com
mercially crazy.
III boy will not obey his father
and mother. he will not obey the so
cial and moral law. II he won't obey
you in your home. II is out or such
that anarchists. nihilists, bomb
throwers and cut-throats are had.
"One OF the danger signs OF our
times is the curse of an idle mother.
Many woman never darns a
stocking. never a piece of hemstitch-
ing on handkerchief, never put
any lace or insertion on a thing;
they manage to drag their carcasses
around. and If they ever go out. IL Is
TO some entertainment. lunch, or out
to some opera, and out TO some fash
ionable dressmaker or some fashion
able milliner; that eternal routine OF
bridge whist, dressmakers, milliners;
they beat that little path.
They never go out 10 help the
poor they never try to do anything
in the homes of squalor or want;
they never try to bridge the chasm
and meet the fellow with the dinner
bucket
IF he goes 10 church, he thinks
they are 100 stuck UP. great big
stiffs. and he tells them TO go plumb
| TO hell.

looked out Of her window one morn

And no sooner had the door
closed on them than she cried, Bring

the kids began pulling in the furni'
ture that had been taken out, and

Then while the mother and father
were rejoicing over the devil being
cast out. the disciples came TO Him
and asked, Why could We not cast
him OUT They didn't go anywhere
else They went right TO Jesus. A
preachers meeting is a mighty poor
place 10 90 to find out why you have

Jesus said 10 the disciples, That
kind can come forth by nothing but
by prayer and fasting
THE disciples hadn't been pray
ing and fasting They had been
quarreling among themselves as to
who should be the greatest in the
kingdom OF God. Jesus said TO them,
What was II that We disputed among
yourselves by the way?
I'm glad that this lesson was not
left out of the Bible. II it had been
left out | would never have known
that the disciples could fail. Just
think, men who had lived with Jesus,
had talked With Him for years

think that they were Of perfection

sible for us to be as perfect as the
disciples or as Paul The disciples
were Just common flesh and blood

good lesson from this and can learn
