A THOUGHT ABOUT YOUR
MOTHER.
Busy! Well, you should be, but
never too busy to stop and let fond
memory bring .to you recollections
of childhood's halcyon days when
you could look up into mother’s face
and carry to her all your problems
for solution. She may long since
have joined the “6hoir Invis
ible, if so cherish her memory as
your richest heritage. If she is still
with you fail not to continually ex
press to her your love and devotion.
Men may write and talk of cour
age and patience. Of sacrifice and
devotion, but our mothers can teach
these lessons to us strong men even
as in the realms of literature they
taught us our A B Cs.
The progress for prosperous re
public is attributable in a great
measure to our glorious mothers. No
trophy is too rich to lay at their feet
up encomium too splendid to pass
on their merit, no love too devoted
to place at their feet.
These lines still are true as when
Joaquin Miller penned them —
The bravest battle that ever was
fought,
Shall 1 tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you will
find it not —
’Tis fought by the mothers of men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
With sword or nobler pen.
Nay, not with eloquent words or
thought
From mouths of wonderful men,
But deep in the walled-up woman’s
heart —
Of woman that would not yield,
But bravely, silently, bore her part—
Lo, there is the battlefield.
No marshaling troop, no bivouac
song,
No banner to gleam and wave;
But, oh their battles, they last
From babyhood to the grave.
Yet faithful still as a bridge of stars,
She fights in her walled-up town —
Fights cn and on in endless wars,
Then, silent, unseen, goes down.
Oh, yet with banners and battle shot
And soldiers to shout and praise,
1 tell you the kindliest victories
fought
Were fought in those silent ways.

APOTHEGMS.
(W. H. Faust.)
Some folks are sound in the faith,
and along with it they are sound
asleep.
In other days Christians wandered
about in “goat skins.’’ now they
strut about in “seal skins.”
The man who can not fill a small
place acceptably will never be call
ed to a large place.
Get the saloons out of the cities
and the "slums” will leave of their
own accord.
If you enjoy a theater better than
you do a prayermeeting, you had
better change your brand of religion.
There is a vast deal of difference
between holding up a pastor’s hands
and swinging on his arms. But the
latter class are more numerous than
the former.
There is this that is more dread
ed than wild fire and fanaticism, and
you will recognize it as lukewarmness
and formalism.
A fellow doesn’t mind being chas
ed by a bull dog nearly so much as
he does to be continually barked at
by a fice.
Paul and Silas sung and prayed in
prison, but some present-day folks
have so little real religion tha tthey
can’t sing and pray in a steam-seat
ed church, on cushioned pews.
The papers state that Mrs. Blank
was clothed in beaded satin and char
meuse. Wonder what her soul was
clothed with.
Many women shine at a social func
tion and smoke and smoulder at hom
It is hard for a lot of mothers to
realize that it is possible for their
children to be bad at school.
With some wosien the day is di
vided into three parts: 8 to sleep
sleep and eat; 8 to dress tand gossip
and 8 to gad about in.
Whenever you throw a brickbat
at a dog and hit him, he just natur
ally hollers.
Oh, spotless woman in a world of
shame,
With splendid and silent scorn
Go back to God as white as you
came —
The kindliest warrior born.
