Who gives you JOY and purpose in
living Who brightens your days, gives
YOU something to plan for and look
forward TO? II is the children in your
home. What object, pray would you
have 10 work for, if it were not for
them? All your thoughts aud plans
for the future are bound up in your
children. Could You imagine what it
would be like if YOU did not have them;
And yet thousands of men and wo-
men have no children ia their homes
and do not seem to miss them. If they
only knew what pleasure they are los
ing they would gladly adopt the home
less little beings, SO many of whom
grow up IN a hard world with no one
to care whether they live or die.
Why are more babies not taken into
these childlcss homesy Many people
offer the excuse that they are afraid
the childreu viii not "turn out well'
and they are afraid to take the re-
sponsihiIity But that is poor ex-
cuse Are they not Sinking respon-
sibility by refusing to take the little
ones into their hearts and homes. Even
N the children should not become the
men and women hoped for, yet those
who have cared for them would at
least have done their duty and given
the youngsters IA chance. And it issun-
doubtcdly true that the happiness they
themselves would experience would
more than compensate for any anxiety
or worry involved. Once child has
come into a home, the world is not the
same.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.

The cost of living keeps rising, yet
none of us seem to suffer any more
than we did before. Though we have
to pay out more than formerly, we
are also taking in more. In all cases
the balance has not as yet been salts
factorily adjusted, but we may hope
that in time all Inconsistencies will be
moothed out. We can't hope for much
decrease in the cost of living unless we
are also willing that our incomes re-
turn to what they formerly were.

Some of the oldest myths that have
been handed down to us deal with the
power of music. 1t is told that rocks
and trees danced when Orpheus played.
Ferocious wild beasts, in many legends,
were quoted 10y sweet strains of sound,
and even today many demonstrations
have been made showing the power
which music cNerts over animals. And
if concord of sound can affect crca-
lures that are naturally fcr0cious, is it
not reasonable that it also has quiet
ing effect on human beings? Such is
indeed the case Music will quiet over
wrought nerves, sooth an angry temper,
and Danish care and sadness. When
music is brought into the home discord
fees from it, for inharmony of atmo-
sphere cannot long abide where har-
mony of sound holds sway.

JOY, sorrow, fear, contentment, dis
aster, all human experiences, follow
each other in rapid succession. The
world is constantly changing. Yet
there is one thing which, if possessed
and cherished, serves to steady MS in
the midst of the whirl, temper the blast
and to tinge our joy with thoughtful
ness. And that one thing is a lifelong
love, a love which lifts us over the
rough places, helps us to forget the
sorrows, and inspires us to press ever
onward,

When a youth will do any sort of
honest work, no matter how mental it
may be, rather than be idle. he will
some day make his mark in the world.
The young. man who is so proud that
he would rather starve than do some
thing that he considers beneath his
dignity will never amount to much. All
honest toll is honorable There is moth
ing so degrading as the aversion to
manual labor, for that aversion is
usually due to Iaziness and concet
