Our Home Department.

By Editor

In our first number of the year we announced a series of home topics by Mrs. L. D. Avery-Stuttle. These were completed in our issue of July 6. But practical home themes are well-nigh exhaustless, and we have asked Mrs. Stuttle to continue. Therefore in our issue of July 13 appeared “Patience in the Home;” in July 20, “Rights of the Individual Members of the Home Circle;” in July 27, “Unreasonableness in the Family Government;” in August 3, “Beauty in the Home;” and in August 10 appears “Contentment in the Home.” What needful, important subjects these all are, and what good instructions have been given. There will follow these:— “Politeness and Courage in the Home,” “Faithfulness in the Home,” “Favoritism in the Home,” “Feminism in the Home,” “Economy in the Home,” “Petty Jealousies in the Home,” “Appreciation in the Home,” “Loving Obedience in the Home,” “Cheerfulness in the Home,” “Temperance in the Home.”

We will announce others later. What important topics of study are suggested by these titles? How the very subjects prick our self-complacency, and reveal in the ugly nakedness of their contour our own idiosyncrasies! Well, let us read them, and cherish the good, wholesome, Christian advice they give.
