CARD Barbourville Sept 27 1904 To the Republicans of Knox County After mature consideration I have decided to withdraw from the race for the Republican nomination for Jailer of Knox county My extreme age and continued ill henlth have been instrumental in leading me to this determination However I am not unmindful of the many promises of support my friends have avowed and am indeed grateful for them And to one and all I desire to express my heartfelt gratitude Again thanking them I am Faithfully yours If POMP MILLS 1 Crude Thoughts as they Fall from the Editorial Pen Pleasant EvenIng Reveries THE HOME CIRCLE COLUMN Arc you ever discoraged follow innn Do you ever feel puny and poor nnd small Do you ever while doing the best we can Get to wondering what Is tho use of It all Oh isnt it pleasant in Hitch nnjionr To ho met by one who hns cheerful ways Who approves your work and ad mires your power Oh isnt it bracing to hear his praise Does it ever lodge in your heart 0 friend Doubt of your worth and doubt of your wit Does it ever appear that youve come to the end Do you feel sometimes a longing to quit To give up the hope to accept defeat To sink into rest and pass out of sight In such a dark hour oh isnt it sweet sweetx To be praised for your worth your work or your might Perhaps you met some one a moment ago Who felt 0 friend as you often do Who had you paused a fair word to Would bestow have gained new strength and new courage too The words of cheer and the words of praise 1hnt cost so little may have such worth Oh I woider why in our Hellish wnrsA We let each other bo crushed to earthNATURE NATURE takes on our moods she laughs with those who laugh and weeps with those who weep If we rejoice and are glad the very birds sing more sweetly the woods and streams murmuring our song But if we are sad and sorrowful sudden gloom falls upon Natures face the sun shines but not in our hearts the birds sing but not to us The music of the spheres is pitched in a minor key HOW quickly we Americans exhaust life With what panting haste we pursue everything Every Ameri can you meet seems to be late for a train Hurry is stamped in the wrinkles of an American face Vc are men ol action we die ithout it we go faster and faster as the years go by speed over machinery to the utmost stretch the silver cord of life until it snaps We have not even time to die a natural death Instead of the lingering maladies of our fathers we drop down and die of heart disease or apoplexy Even death has adopted our terrible gait If we would spend a few hours each day romping with our children or in the society of the home circle we would live longer and our children could follow in our pathway which would be plainly blazed by these hours of recreation I THERE is no well regulated home that does not contain a mothers chair It always has rockers for mother your mother and mine always had so many troubles to soothe that rockers were a necessity Well we remember the one in our home It was an old chair and the rockers were almost worn out lor the chair had rocked the family It made a creaking noise as it moved but there was music in its sound It was just high enough to allow us children to put our heads into mothers lap That was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries It was different from fathers chair You ask how We cannot tell but we all felt it was different Perhaps there was about this chair more gentleness more grief when we had done wrong When we were wayward father scolded but mother cried The chair knew all the old lullabies and all those wordless songs which mothers sing to their children The old chair has stopped rocking for a good many years In many homes it has been set up in the loft or garret hjit it holds a queenly power yet vv DKAK EDITOR As jcojistanr reader of your valuable paper IdeM A i7r It 1 1i 1 0 ft A Column DedIcated to Tired Mothers as they Join the Home Circle at Eve slag Tide sire to congratulate you upon your Home Circle Column It alone is worth to me many times the subscription price of the paper Now with your permission will make a few suggestions that I feel sure will be endorsed by the many mothers who read your Home Circle Column I have thought much and much has been said andwritten about Where is my boy tonight As a mother who has several daughters and no boy would like this inquiry changed so as to read Where is my girl tonight With pangs of remorse one must admit that in our oneI at least many of our girls who have good homes are on the streets seven nights in the week They wander listlessly about no object in view They bring upon themselves slighting remarks from street loafers They gossip and flirt with young men i they would blush with shame to have enter their homes My girls would not desire to loaf upon the streets and in the stores if others did not do so Can we not as mother organize and in some manner prevent this growing evil that sooner or later is sure to destroy the happiness of our homes Would it not be much better for our girls to spend their evenings at home in mental improvement or if they prefer to meet at each others homes Anything to keep them off the streets They lose the respect of all good citizens and sooner or later will lose all respect for themselves Respectfully submitted by A MOTJIKK THE HOMK THAT only Paradise which surrounds the fall Home is mothers province her empire over which she is emphatically monarch of all she surveys She has here all the essentials of happiness and if she is skillful in the use of materials she may build a shrine for her household gods more dear and dazzling to the heart and eye than all the storied fairies of antiquityHow How carefulshould she be then to mould her actions and modulate her voice in shape and tones of purest harmony I How zealously should she apply herself to make only skill and faultless notes from the compli cated instrument that responds so faithfully to her touch How consummate should be her tact in touch ing the key note of character in husband children servants relatives and friends How should she attune their hearts to love and reverence her in every relationship I What delicate studies come under her ob crvation and intuition for each day and hour of her life How many i and how precious are the ones who look to her for daily happiness as I well as for daily comforts and how bright a spot of sunshine she may make of her circumscribed and undisputed realm Mother wife daughter sister is it not in your power to make someone happy Do you abandon thoughts of self sufficiently to make i their happiness of more consequence than your own Do you use nil your gentle arts and influences to attain an object so desirable Then you do not have to seek your own contentment It comes to you in the realization that there is one heart at least dependcntent upon you for happiness And if you realize also that the variation of a tone carries a weight that the expression of a smile a glance the significance of a word an action may make or mar the sunshine of a day for that one and if you regard this trust more sacredly than the keeping of the most precious jewelthen you need not feel the rivalry of strange women nor rum shops nor any other business or pleasure Thus the charm of your presence gladdens the spot made most holy on earth bearing the
