  It was from there I began to progress; it was there my publishers found me; and it was there little Bud was born to us. I owed little bills amounting to about twenty-one dollars.

  Poor little thing! First thing I knew baby was on this porch and that porch, and on the way home in the evening I whistled for her and nodded to the grownups who were entertaining her.

  Poor little Arthur! And I wish I had said to him, 'If the Lord Jesus were to come walking towards us now, and sit down here, would you be afraid to see Him?' And would not you, dear Arthur? asked his aunt.

  He was so thoroughly a boy, though the very nicest kind of boy--not ashamed of being a 'gentleman,' too, in lots of little ways, which many boys either despise, or are too awkward and shy to attend to. Looking back, I can see what a _very_ good thing it was for us all that she came, even for mamma.

summary:
  Yet it does not seem to occur to mothers that little children must feel this, in proportion to the length of time and violence of their crying, far more than grown people. Chief among them were the shrieks and cries of little children, and blows and angry words from tired, overworked mothers.

  Said one youthful matron to me--My own mother has been an invalid for so many years that I have not felt that I could go to her with all my worries and perplexities, for my annoyances only added to her troubles. There are many women who, to their shame be it said, openly sneer at their mothers-in-law, and ridicule their manners, habits, etc.

summary:
  The smallness of the home-bound woman is not so injurious as the still smaller nature of the harem-bound, by as much as the home is larger and freer than the harem; but just as harem women limit man's growth, so do home women in slighter degree. Criticism there is, deep and thorough; but not with the intention of robbing us of one essential element of home life--rather of saving us from conditions not only unessential, but gravely detrimental to home life.

  The Christian Home As it is in the Sphere of Nature and the Church; Showing the Mission, Duties, Influences, Habits, and Responsibilities of Home, its Education, Government, and Discipline; with Hints on "Match Making," and the Relation of Parents to the Marriage Choice of their Children; together with a consideration of the Tests in the Selection of a Companion, Etc.

summary:
  It is often said that the children of ministers and pious parents are usually more wicked than other children. Many children fight against these, prevent parents from performing their duties, and repel all the overtures of the Christian home, all the offers of the Spirit's baptism, abandoning the means of grace, refusing to assume the baptismal engagement taken for them by their parents; and thus, so far as they are concerned, undo and neutralize what their parents did for them.
