SAYS PLACE TO SPEND
MONEY IS ON THE HOME

Life Is short, yes, by comparison
with what lies beyond. but since its
birth this small atom in a universe
OF worlds has been for millions, aye
for billions Of men, a workshop and
a playground. They have bought and
sold, they have toiled, and reaped.
they have harnessed the lightning
conquered the air and esta blished
lanes Of traffic across the raging sea.
They have even tunneled beneath
the wide rivers. hanging safe high
ways OF steel for travel far under
the pulsng tides ebb and flow.
AS the race has progressed from
its earliest beginnings, more and
more firmly has fitting idea of
home become fixed in mems hearts.
Time was when home meant a rude
hut without windows and with a
hole in the roof for chimney. Now
everyone realizes that n home is the
grandest institution yet conceived by
man, a place not alone in which to
sleep and eat but Very shrine of
shines, a sanctuary of loving hearts,
a wclIsprinE OF inspiration and peace
A tender sentiment attaches to the
image OF the little thatched cottage
in the lane. But with the passing
VI the insanitary thatched roof has
come the bigger. better idea of the
home as a place for which no modern
invention for comfort, even for lux
ury, is too good. Plate-glass win
duws, yes, II we can afford them
A garden with a fountain around
which birds shall gather and beside
which young lovers shall dream
why not? II the dread OF the pro-
verbal rainy day is past, why not
lavish upon the home in unstlnted
measure not only love but money
SO that when we come to It at the
close OF day it shall give back to us
glow for heart throh, smile for smile.
ease and refreshment for every need
of body and soul To build and
worthily equip the home is sacred
task, blessed privilege. AS a man
thinketh in his heart of his home
so is he.-People's Home Journal,
