Excerpt from Principles of Domestic Science, as Applied to the Duties and Pleasures of Home: A d104book for the Use of Young Ladies in Schools, Seminaries, and Colleges To man is appointed the out-door labor - to till the earth, dig the mines, toil in the foundries, traverse the ocean, transport merchandise, labor in manufactories, construct houses, conduct civil, municipal, and state affairs, and all the heavy work, which, most of the day, excludes him from the comforts of a home. But the great stimulus to all these toils, implanted in the heart of every true man, is the desire for a home of his own, and the hopes of pater nity. Every man who truly lives for immortality responds to the beatitude, Children are a heritage from the Lord: blessed is the man that hath his quiver full of them! The more a father and mother live under the in uence of that immortality which Christ hath brought to light, the more is the blessedness of rearing a family understood and appreciated. Every child trained aright is to dwell forever in exalted bliss with those that gave it life and trained it for heaven. The blessed privileges of the family state are not con fined to those who rear children of their own. Any wo man who can earn a livelihood, as every woman should be trained to do, can take a properly qualified female asso ciate, and institute a family of her own, receiving to its heavenly in uences the orphan, the sick, the homeless, and the sinful, and by motherly devotion train them to follow the self-denying example of Christ, in educating his earthly children for true happiness in this life and for his eternal home. And such is the blessedness of aiding to sustain a truly Christian home, that no one comes so near the pattern of the All-perfect One as those who might hold what men call a higher place, and yet humble themselves to the lowest in order to aid in training the young, not as men-pleasers, but as servants to Christ, with good-will doing service as to the Lord, and not to men. Such are preparing for high places in the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever will be chiefest among you, let him be your servant. It is often the case that the true humility of Christ is not understood. It was not in having a low opinion of his own character and claims, but it was in taking a low place in order to raise others to a higher. The worldling seeks to raise himself and family to an equality with others, or, if possible, a superiority to them. The true follower of Christ comes down in order to elevate others.
