In the last analysis, home happiness depends on the wife. Her spirit gives the home its atmosphere. Her hands fashion its beauty. Her heart makes its love. And the end is so worthy, so noble, so divine, that no woman who has been called to be a wife, and has listened to the call, should consider any price too great to pay, to be the light, the joy, the blessing, the inspiration of a home.

Too many of us never understand what we owe to our dear ones until there remains no further opportunity of paying love's debt.

Nothing else in all life is such a maker of joy and cheer as the privilege of doing good.
