“God has made the mind of woman the complement to the mind of man.
“When properly coupled they are a source of strength to each other. As steel and flint strike fire, so the brightest wit and best thought spring from the intellectual union of man and wife. Beginning as a stimulus to research and higher endeavor, each learns to know the mind of the other. A glance often reads thought without the spoken word.”
A MOTHER’S SMILE.
Though a mother may seem void of beauty,
Her tongue have no art to beguile,
To her children there’s nothing so lovely
As her face when bright with a smile.
When they wake from the slumbers of childhood,
And gaze on the world, half afraid,
If they see mother’s face bending o’er them,
