Home as Woman Can Make It. KAD BT KKS. EM3A 8. KNEf'FER BEFORE IHS TAMERS' INSTITUTE, FEB. 14, lS'Jl, AT MRUS, FA. A certain writer Las well said, the three swef leet words in oar laxguage are Mother, Home and Heaven. Of these, the word Home, so fail of meaning, includes the others; for what is home without a mother? And is not oar home here an emblem of the home beyond T Home Who can define it? It does not consist merely of side wails, roof and rooms, however well funmbed, but where the law of iove rules its inmates and gentle greetings welcome us by those who meet ns on its threshold. Home is, indeed a sacred place, a love ly spot shut in from the outside world, where the family is unbrofcen and kind ly feelings prevail ; the father, son or daughter, as the case may be, coming in from the labors of the day, tired and weary, always find a safe retreat and Lappr welcome by the angel of the household. It is the one who always greets them with a pleasant smile and kind word. Where the home U bleaeed with such kindred spirits the inmates cannot help but be happy. The mother, the queen of the borne, lifts the clouds of care, trouble and weariness, and the borne is made to float in the higher atmosphere of happiness. Such an ideal home could not exist without a woman's influence over ber loved ones. Spurgeon, the great London preacher, said, "Home is the grandest of all insti tutions." There are many noble and worthy institutions in this broad land of , lr,A n mpr the world, that have for their object the promotion and im provement of the human race, hut the family home exceeds them alL The home is Divine in its origin, and is the very foundation on which society securely rests. The home was designed by the Creator to be an ornament to society and a blessing to alL Judicious Lome training no doubt accomplished more for civilization and Christianity than all other efforts combined. Home, where woman sits enthroned, is the greatest training school f r the Church and State in all the world. In the well regulated home children are taught the first Bible precepts, to honor and obey their parents, and in a large measure brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Jt is woman's mission to train and educate the young mind. Hhe is the chief factor in laying the foundation of the child's education, as well as in the formation of Lis character. It is universally admitted there is no place like home, if it is ever so homely. The smallest hut where peace and con tent. .ent reign, and regulated by wom an's influence, is tsbetter than a king's palace, wlif-re the turbulent elements of ein have full sway. Woman's influence, well directed, is what gives us pleasant homes and well trained families ornaments to society at large and burning lights to the churc'u. Yes ; thrice happy is such a home, raodeled after such a grand ideal, where words are always attuned to cheer, and deeds that ennoble all that comes in con tact witli it It is possible through the power of woman's influence to make the home circle the most endearing place to be found anywhere in this wide, wide world. By her efforts all the purest af fections and most desirable associations, as well as the most pleasing realities to be found on this side the home beyond center in the homes and around the Cre eiJes of the millions of our race. From the beauty and sublimity, the harmony and love of the model home, come forth ail the great, good and pkus of every nation and land. What is equally true, from the homes of our de voted women of the land must come the great army of the tillers of the soil the farmers the very sinew and backbone of the nation. And now, what can woman do in the homes of the farmers? Much indeed, Tery much. Man may boast, "I am mon arch of all I survey ; my right there is cone to dispute." This applies only to the few who may choose to shut them selves out from the society of woman, who, if not his equal physically, may be Lis superior in many other respects. While the boeband is the head of the woman in one sense, every reasonable man will admit that the woman's mis sion, among other things, is to preside over the household. She superintends the work of the family and is the prime factor and central fizure in the hume circle. How great her work ! "Man's work is from sun to sun ; Woman's work is never done." Woman's sphere truly is one of great power and influence. Gray said of woman, "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world." Many of the great and wise in every age and nation owe their greatness to a mother's influence, how ever humble their homes. The home is what woman makes it? She is the first and greatest of all teachers of the young and rising generation. The first and most lasting impressions are stamped upon the young mind by the mother, never to be obliterated while life lasts. In nine cases oat of ten the first prayer the child lisps is taught him while kneel ing by his mother's side. If such is the power and influence of woman in the home, use it for good ; magnify the 6pliere in which yon move and the mis sion you are called to fill, and thou shalt be blessed, indeed. The farmer's wife can truly make the home of ber choice a center of attraction . She has it in her power to adorn the home and from time to time make im provements in and around the house as time and opportunity afford. It is astonishing how mnch the good and judicious housewife can accomplish for her home in making everything pleasant and inviting to the family, as well as the stranger who may for the time being seek lodging and entertain ment. Much of this may be done with very little expense to the husband, who often clasps to his bosom more closely the money purse than the one who makes him comfortable anl;happy. The tasty mistress of the home adorns ber naked wails w ith pictures and works of art, replenishes ber wardrobe as often as 'necessary, arranges the furniture to suit the convenience of the family, covers the readinj table with good and whole some reading, such as is best adapted to young and old, sets her flowers in and round the house in such a way as to add to the attraction of the home. In abort, the whole regulation of the the household, the food we eat, the com pany we keep, with all the comforts and endearments of the home, can be made neb by the queenly woman who sits en throned to do ber domestic affairs, and make all these things subeerve the pur pose for which they were given ns to make ns happy.

Kissed the Wrong Girl. There roan at was a very distressed young the Union depot last night, the iafengeni who passed Among through the barriers for the Kastern Ex press was a young gent.eman with a very lovely air and the lady's satchel. The pair boarded the train and were soon engrossed in conversation, so much so that when the signal for departure was given the young man jumped up and made for the door without saying good bye. When be reached the vestibule he remembered his oversight and started back to remedy it The car was well tilled, and the young man was doubtless nervous and probably near-sighted, for when he reached the section, as he thought, containing his beloved, he stooped suddenly and im printed a fc-rvid kiss on the dips of some other girL There was a scream, deep Hushes suffused the cheeks of the right girl, quickly followed by an indignant frown ; a hurried apology from the poor fellow followed, and then a wild rush for the door and a tumble off the now rapid ly moving train by a shamefaced and disgruntled young mxn.l'iUjUT'jh Di- Happy Hoosiers.

Yesterday afternoon a strange sight was witnessed by passers along Main street In the middle of the street was a long "prairie schooner" drawn by two lean Indian ponies, and ou the driver's seat, holding knotted clothes lines for reins, wts a woman dressed in faded cal ico, with her face shaded by a coarse, wide-brimmed straw hat The woraan inquired of a policeman the w ay to po lice headquarters, and there told Captain Martin Moran a strange story of desti tution. Nine years ago John Gibon, his young wife and little three-year-old daughter left their home in Les Moines, Iowa, for the South. They went to Benton county in Arkansas and homesteaded a claim four miles from "ebo. The ground jo- duced the narrowest kind of razorback hogs ever found in the State made famous for tliis form of creation, but it produrid little else. When April cair.e last year John Gib son lay down on his deathbed in the rude little place called home. The mias ma had been too much for him and con sumption bad put its stamp upon him On the night of nearly the last day in the month Le called his wife to Lis side, Work with the hoe and behind the plow had given the woman stronger arms than she had when she left her city home. It gave her, too, a sunburned face, bat it did not dull the expression of a keen brown eye. To add to the very burden of existence two little girls and a baby boy not a year old had been added to the family since the migration. The dying man took his wife's hand gave her as his blessing the care of the family and the few acres of almost bar ren land which he had struggled over for hine years. To his children Le gave the horses, two Indian ponies, not cf much value, which represented the result of many days of sweat and toil. For a yearj LyJia Gibson, the widow, cared for the children and "the place." Then, on the anniversary of her hus band's death, she gave up the struggle for existence there. She sold what little stuff she had un der the home roof and determined to come to her brother, Edward Misell, a "Pennsylvania Dutchman" who removed to the West from Lancaster countr, liv ing near St Joseph, in this State. She bitched the two ponies, the child ren's ponies to the long wagon, patched the mildewed canvas cover and stretched it over the ribs. There were many days to be spent on the road, so she pat in all the bedding the little house contained. Then, with the money raised by the sale of "the stuff" in the house she bought some flour and 6ides of salt meat The cellar was emptied of everything eatable, and the Louse door was nailed close. The three fat little bacon consumers were put under the canvas beside their mother, and the horses' head turned away from a lonesome grave under the pines. The nights were cold and there were many rainy days, but the rosolute little woman journeyed on. Missouri reads are not the beet in the world, and when the wagon Las no springs and the horses must depend upon the grass to be Lad from grazing along the roadside, and the rain bos made deep mudholes, progress niust of necessity be slow. "I could a scld the ponies," 6he said, "and boueht a railroad ticket, but he gave 'em to the children an' ast me ti to keep 'em." Taesday night the little family Lad co supper. The provisions Lad given out, for the rain Lad caused much delay. The night was passed ia the road south of W ret port, near some farm hou-vs. Yes terday morning the women from the houses interested themselves in the wan derers and gave them some food and di rected them to police headquarters in this city. Mrs. Gibson has asked her way mile by mile, and has been to the road from here to St Joseph by way of Kansas City, Kan., and Leavenworth, bat it will take her four days to reach her brother. When she told her story to Captain of Police Moran, he culled Policeman Mc Miiienof the Hamane Society. The woman did not want much, only some bacon nnd flour, and these she was given, and she began again her long ride. A'auaa O-'y Star. From the Nation's GapitoL Mr. A. X. lUiea, Washington, D.

Ytrr maor rjot)le eoffer Feriounly from their unjrovernable fear of lightning. It is not unreasonable to ff-ar the liglituinjf stroke. Its eudden visitation i we.I calculated to excite alarm, and its often seriom and sometimes fatal injuries to life and property intensify apprehen sions. Thia ia the season when thornier storms are usually most freqoent and re vere, and everv reasonable precaution should be taken to protsct both life and property from the lightning stroke. t.a pecially should barns be carefully pro. tected, as the gasses caused by new crops packed in the- mows are highly hifiam ruable, and instantaneous combustion often follows an electrical discharge on or near a barn. Barns are also more ex posed because of the general absence of the trees around them. Many houses have been saved from a discharge of elec tricity by the close proximity of high trees. Indeed, there is almost entire safety from lightning that has the full grown Lombardy poplar tree close to it, with its countless points of attraction in its upward pointed leaves. While there is not absolutely saieiy from lightning in even the best precau tions, there is reallv verv little danger to any building that is protected by proper ly constructed lichtninz conductors. Any other than properly constructed conduc tors only increase the danger, as they multiply the attraction without Mrn:sn ing the means of leading the discharge awav Dora uie rmnaing. n is sa:r to say that one-half, and probably much more than one-half, ol tne ligni nir.g rods put up in the country are seri ously defective and frauds upon the people who have bought them. Many buildings have vastly more feet of rod oa them than are needed if properly ap plied, and few who buy rods know when they are properly put upon the buildings or when they are properly grounded in moist earth. The best conductor when projerly applied to a buildiDg is only an increased source of peril unless it is grounded where there ia constant moist ure. The best lightning conductor is the copper cable. It is more costly than iron, but it is well worth the difference. The conducting power of a rod is the ex tent of surface it presents, and a cable made up of many stramla of wire greatly multiplies its surface and conducting capacity. Then copper is the best con ductorof all our cheap metals, and light ning always follows the best conductor. It plays no "freaks." It is often appar ently erratic in its course, but it always obeys the laws of attraction, and a cop per cable, with a circuit around the base of the whole roof, with points attached to every chimney or prominent eleva tion, with two or three conductors to the earth, ending in a cistern, water-pipe or moist ground, will be reasonably certain to protect any building and is inmatts from the lightning stroke. In the absence of conductors to protect a house, and indeed nnder all circum stances, it is w ise to avoid exposure to damp currents durinz a thunder storm. As all currents of a'.r are heavily charged with dampness during such storms, they become conductors of lightning in the .bence of stronger attraction, such aa a good lightning rod ; and even with good lightning rods, the possibility of an ex cessive discharge of electricity tkat would make part of it seek other con ductors, is a strong argument in favor of closed doors and windows during elec trical disturbances. It is seldom that a lightning stroke enters a house at all, unless by some damp air current caused by an open door or window, or by a chimney. Many buildings receive elec tric strokes without penetrating the in side at all and without even serious shock to the inmates. Few of the very many who are terror ized by thunder storms pause to consider how little loss of life is caused by light ning strokes. There are many more people drowned each year than are kill ed by lightning ; there are a great many more people killed by railroad accident than by lightning, and there are many more jeop!e killed by the varied acci dents which prevail in even the best reg ulated communities, than by lightning. None are terrorized by fear of drowning; hundreds of thousands travel daily on railways without fear, and none take thought of the countless forms in which death comes by accident everywhere ; but ail more or less bow to fear of light ning, that ia not nearly as destructive of life as other sources of danger w hich give them little or no concern. There is ilanger in the thunder storm, however, and it is always wise to take every rea sonable precaution against it. flood lightning rods are always wise, and there is always wisdom in closed doors and windows, and always foolhardy exposure in taking refuge unper isolated trees dur ing storms.

A Russia letter says : A curious and unusual sight has just been witnessed by the inhabitants of Bjeigorod, in the south of Russia. A fcw days ago an enormous flight of eagles were seen to fly past the town and settle in an adja cent forest. The woodmen who were in the forest at the time fied in dismay from the place. It was w ell they did, for when these unwelcome visitors had tak en their departure it was found that they had devoured ten horses, several sheep, and a vast number of smaller animals. The ground where they alighted was strewn with feathers, and all the birds of the neighborhood hare been so terrified that they have flown away. Only one of the eagles was caught a bird of im mense size and belonging to a Siberian epecies. The eagles, which were several hundred in number, flew away in a southwesterly direction. A Katal Error.
