Tho Dream of Home.
Who has not felt how sadly sweet
The dream of home, the dream of
home,
Steals o'er the heart too soon, too fleet,
When far o'er sea or land we roam?
Sunlight more soft may o'er us fall,
To greener shores our barks may
come;
But far more bright, more dear than
all,
That dream of home, that dream of
home.
Ask the sailor youth when far
His light bark hounds o'er ocean's
foam,
What charms him most when even
ing's star
Smiles o'er the wave. To dream of
home.
Fond thoughts of absent friends and
loves
At that sweet hour around him
come; .
His heart's best joy, where'er he
roves
That dream of home, that dream of
home.

Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
Wo shall be glad when history re
peats itself by, bringing to the front
again the sentiments, manners and
customs of Puritan days in this coun
try, especially as far as women are
concerned.
When modesty and not audacity will
be the charm of every woman, old or
young, of our blessed land when we
shall hear no more of sucli offensive
appellations as "Bachelor Girl," "Girl
of the Period," and the like.
We confess that in a measure our
young women are responsible for these
expressions, for too many start out on
a wrong principle. Because it may be
necessary for her to do something for
her support she drifts into a spirit of
independence that amounts to defiance
and recklessness.
She apes the young men in all tho
ways she dares, without laying asido
all the charms of womanhood. Many
don the Rough Rider or Fedora hat,
military jackets, four-in-hand ties and
very high boots for women, and sally
forth on the streets to jostle against
the crowd and make their way to the
front, if they desire to go there, re
gardless of the spectacle they present
or the uncouthness of their manners.
We are old fashioned enough to
think that many of the sports in which
young women take part nowadays do
not contribute to their modesty and
refinement. The best physicians have
agreed that violent exercise has in
many cases produced hopeless invalid
ism.
Champion golf players are not con
sidered the most healthful mothers.
We have heard of their being con
firmed invalids after a few years of.
championship.
We do not think that God intended
that there should be bachelor men or
women, but they were designed to live
in wedlock after God's holy ordinance
o matrimony.
No one more honors the womea
who are wage earners, or is more in
terested in their success, than my
self, but I do not believe any woman
ever made a great success In her efforts
in any sphere by laying aside her wo
manly modesty, or by trying to imitate
masculine manners or dress, or em
phasizing her independence by estab
lishing herself in bachelor quarters
or ignoring the chaperonage of some
woman older than herself.
She may not be jifrald to do any
necessary for her to pursue her tasks
or duties alone; but there will never
be any Lecessity for any young woman
especially to disregard the proprieties
and restraints that should always bo
observed. A woman should have cour
age enough to be womanly under all
circumstances, and to wish to draw
around her every protection from tho
rough and tumble that attends wage
earners.
No woman should be ambitious to
be a bachelor, but should cultivate
those charms of character which at
tract the good and noble. No bache
lor girl can ever command the respect
and reverence that would belong to
her as a devoted wife and mother.
There are innumerable women in tho
world who for one cause or another
have never nor will never marry.
Generally at the bottom of spinster
hood there is some tragic romance that
has brought ' her to that state, but
such women are generally mode3t.
lovely characters, whose souls are. full
of love and womanly instincts that
would scorn being called "bachelor
girls." Their lives are full of useful
ness and activity for tho betterment'
of the world.
"They avoid being considered inde
pendent, but are so without mannish
boasting of the fact. They dress with
great care to avoid being considered
indifferent to their appearance, and
as a rule are the angels of the house
hold to which they belong.
While the bachelor girl in a few
years will find that one by one her'ad-
mirers have slipped away, and that
she has grown old, inattractive' a"nd
undesirable as a companion of refined
people, in her old age she counts all
her fancied" success as dearly bought,
illy compensating her for the loss of
domestic happiness. Mrs. John A. Lo

Daughter, don't let mother do
Do not let her slave and toil,
While you sit a useless idler,
Fearing your soft hands to soil.
Don't you see the heavy burdens
Dally she is wont to bear
Bring the lines upon her forehead,
Sprinkle silver in her hair?
Daughter, don't let mother .do it, .'
Do not let her bake and broil;
Through the long bright summer
hours,
CLare with her the heavy toll;
See, her eye has lost its brightness,
From her cheek the ruby glow,
And the step that once was buoyant
Now is feeble, weak and slow.
Daughter, don't let mother do it,
She has cared for you so long;
Is it right the weak and feeble
Should be toiling for the strong?
Waken from your listless languor,
Seek her side to cheer and bless,
And your grief will be less bitter
When thw sods above her press.
Daughter, don't let mother do it'
You will never, never know
What was home without a mother
Till that mother lieth low;
Low beneath the budding daisies,
Free from earthly care and pain;
To the home so sad without her." -.
Never to return again.
