coach opened and in walked that same
old man. He had the grip, and,
besides, he had something wrapped
up in paper in the other hand. He
sat down and bent his head over and
began to weep. My friend walked
over again and sat down by him, ex
tending his hand, and the man
gripped it, and the tears were just
running down his rugged, rough face.
The minister said, “You are the same
man that came up with me.’’ “Yes,”
said he. “Well, it is my desire to
help people when I can. You seem to
be in trouble, and I wish you would
let me help you.” “Well, mister, I’ll
tell you. When I was a boy I had the
best mother that ever lived; but I
was a wild boy and didn’t want the
discipline and restraint of home life.
I heard what a great country the West
was, and decided that I would run
away and go there. I did, and for
some time I almost forgot my old
mother, who was at home grieving
out her heart for her boy. But I
worked hard, and after awhile I began
to think of my mother, and I wanted
to make enough to come back to see
her or bring her to see me; but I
never did; and one day I heard that
my mother was dead. Then I real
ized how much I loved her, and I got
to thinking about her more and more.
I thought of her holy life, of her
prayers. She used to pray for me,
and I remembered that. This went on
for years. I just thought about it un
til I couldn’t stand it any longer, and
made up my mind that I would come
back here and find out how she had
lived —if she had been taken care of
and where she was buried. That
night when I got off the train that
station was new to me. I -went out
in the direction of my father’s old
place, and the little old farmhouse
was gone; a little town had sprung
up there. I asked if anybody had
known my mother and could not find
anybody who knew her. Finally I got
into an old road that I knew. But
there was not a single house on it
that I knew. The trees were all cut
The Lady "From Alabama
Incomparably pale, and almost fair,
And sad beyond expression.
Her eyes were like some fire-enshrin
ing gem,
Were stately like the stars, and yet
were tender,
Her figure charmed me like a windy
stem,
Quivering, and drooped, and slender.
She measured measureless sorrow to
ward its length,
And breadth, and depth, and height.”
He had glimpsed a vision more
wonderful than that.
Paradise had let fall her silken
mantle, and stretched an earth-angel,
at his poor feet of clay, a beauty lost
in lotus-sleep, dark-clad, fair-browed.
Far off, through the chill, drear dark
ness, through the miles of streets and
houses, he fancied that he heard Her
whisper.:
“Be strong! Love never faileth!”
Then he lost sight of the fire and
the oak mantel, the table and the
evening lamp, the easy chair in which
he lounged. The picture of the mu
sic master, on the little mantel, grew
dim, and more dim, and —flared out.
After that, the sounds in the house

down and great fields were there. I
chanced to see a farmer who lived
thereabout, and asked him if he had
ever heard of my mother, and asked
if he could tell me where she was
buried. He did remember her, and
told me that she was buried in the old
burying ground. I said, ‘Can you tell
me if there is any house that was
here when I was a boy?’ He said,
‘Yes; the old church has not been
torn down.’ I walked three miles to
the old church and went in. It isn’t
used for a church now; there are no
doors and no windows or gates, and
the sheep stay in there, but it was a
church to me, and I went in and
walked straight up to the corner of
the building where my mother used
to always sit. I knew exactly the spot
where she used to sit and hold me on
her knee. You see this in this pack
age? I took this brick out and
wrapped it up and brought it away
with me; it is the one she used to
rest her foot on. See how thin it is?
Part of it was worn away by her foot.
I just kneeled down there over that
brick and I said, ‘Oh, God of my
mother, save her miserable boy,’ and,
Mister, He did it, and I am going back
to California to live the rest of my
life as a child of my mother’s God.”
Can there be a better testimony of
a life than that? Are you true as a
mother to your Christ? Those little
acts of devotion, or service, or sacri
fice to the truth will never die out
in the heart and conscience of the
child that has observed it. Be true to
God, true to your church, true to your
family, and, by your life, your loved
ones will be constrained to seek the
way. How much of what is good in
any of us can be directly traced to the
influence of some godly person with
whom we have come in contact.
Friends, we, as Christians, are being
watched, and our actions are having
an influence over other lives; it be
hooves us to be careful; it is thus
that the Kingdom of Heaven will
spread most rapidly and most surely
—by the silent influence of the sub
jects of the King.
grew vague, immaterial. A door
slammed, a dish rattled, but he did
not move. He, also, had sunk into
lotus-slumber. Sleep was binding up
the ravelled sleeve of his cares. His
cigar slid from between his fingers,
and flicked a grey, spreading ash over
the matting, in its sudden fall. But
he gave no sign, made no motion to
recover it.
Presently, his sub-conscious self be
gan to see a vision.
The long street, from the Churchill
residence to the gray-marble State
Capitol grew luminous. It was lined
with troops. Gray and blue uniforms
were garnered under the fresh-leaved
elms. Their bayonets glittered like
precious silver, in the morning sun
shine. A strain of martial .music
passed, like sweet-mouthed birds sing
ing on the wing. And he heard the
voice of many waters. Sharp, quick,
voltic cheering shook the palace win
dows. Then the Marshal of the Day,
with his resplendent staff, loomed
forth, under the blue of the sky, the
green of the elms * * and figures
began to gather on the Churchill ve
randas and steps * * They seemed
WISHED FOR DEATH
Terrible thing to be so sick, that
death would come as a welcome re
lief from suffering!
How much, then, must one be thank
ful for a medicine that relieves such
misery and brings one into a less des
perate state of mind.
Cardui, Woman’s Relief, has done
this for many women, and may be ex
pected to do so for many more.
Thousands of ladies have written
to tell about their suffering, and how
it was telieved by the use of Cardui.
Among this long list of letters writ
ten, stands forth Mattie Campbell, of
Ratcliff, Texas, who says: “Two years
ago my health was bad. I suffered
untold misery. I ached all over. Life
was a burden to me. At times I
wished for death, to end my suffering.
“At last, I decided to try Cardui.
1 took one bottle and it helped me.
I took 12 bottles more and now I can -
say that Cardui has stopped my suffer
ing and made life worth living.
“I would not be placed back where I
was —not for this whole world rolled
at my feet.”
Try Cardui. It contains not one
grain of dangerous mineral ingredi
ents, but is purely vegetable, and a
safe, reliable remedy for young and old.
