The high moral standing of this
community is due to the fact that
it has been permeated by Chris
tian influence and education, such
as have radiated from the various
church organizations of our town.
Ages pass, but each returning
Easter brings again its lessons of
sacrifice, of unselfishness and of
great love for humanity. Great
snowy banks of lilies, emblems of
purity, are offered in remembrance
of the greatest self-abnegation in
the world. In vast cathedral and
modest chapel vibrates the majes
tic music of praise for that most
wonderful resurrection, upon
which is based the faith of the
mightiest people of the earth.

Pleasant Evening Reveries-—A Column Dedicated to Tired

CRUDE THOUGHTS FROfl THE EDITORIAL PEN.
Do not complain of your wife’s
extravagance with a'cigar in your
mouth.
Keep your head clear, your con
science fair, your heart pure,
young woman and go out into the
world and make a life for your
self. It is your right as well as
your duty.
It has become so much the cus
tom to send keep-sakes and re
membrances to one’s friends
on holidays that one’s purse is
agape almost all the year round.
This Easter the shopkeepers have
been most considerate, and “prices
for all purses’’ is the rule in more
than one shop that makes a
specialty of appropriate holiday
gifts.
Woman, can’t you see? You
caught your husband with honey
and you cannot hold him with
vinegar. The outside of the house
is the only side which in truth be
longs to a hen pecked husband.
They take to the outside so speedi
ly when there is unpleasant-ness
within, that any woman with only
a little thought' and observation
may know what will come of try
ing to train a husband as she
would a fractious school boy.
Whatever he may be, for the home
sake, she is obliged to keep sweet.
We have seen women who appar
ently enjoyed scolding their hus
bands in the presence of others,
and we have seen mothers who in
discreetly punish their children
before visitors, thus humiliating
the dear wayward ones and mak
ing them feel that their reputa
tions were so damaged that there
was no use in trying to be good.
But such women are not the mis
tresses of those homes where the
household machinery glides on
with noiseless ease, without force
or effect seeming to be required to
move it along. They cannot cre
ate the sunny, cheerful firesides
that men love better than all the
world beside, and the memory of
which children tenderly cling to as
long as life lasts.
