BENNBTTSYILLE, S. C, DEMOCRAT PUBLISHING CO., W. F. CALDWELL, EDITOR Friday, Jan. 31? 1908 MOTHER AND THE HOME. Tho nrticlo which appeared in last week's Advocate, entitled "Horne?te," from tho pon of Fur man Allon, Jr., wo reproduco in our columns today for wo want our readers to see it and also to read and enjoy. Tho article teems with beautiful fl expressions, thoughts, and ideas and tho author has dono well in setting them forth. And one fact wo want to impross, never forget that Mother is the center of homo. Sho is thc core as it wore, thc very heart blood of the home. Mother's love, Moth er's teachings and work, her sac rifices and devotion, who can be gin to estimate or compare? Truly, "Mother's love is thc most perfect reflection of thc love of God ever thrown back from the mirror of a human soul." To feel this, to know what the love of mother is let hor be taken away and then tho meas ure, not full but in part, of moth er's love will be shown. When God calls her from earth to her home on high you will know what her love is. No more is home thc same when Mother is gone. Every where you turn lhere will bc a re mainder ol'her and time can't ef face her image and presence. Lost is the purest the best of all earthly love when Mother dies. And in after life when away but ing for your daily bread, Mother's cachings ?ind love will over lie itli you guiding your feet alon;; ie righi path. Place your Mother ghti close up next to your God 'id all will lie well. Mother and irigation to tho lire protection, 'ell variety is the spu r ol'life and ll> doesn't cost much. Dr. Cyrus Dead.
