THE DEBT TO MOTHER.

Mothers live for their children, make
self-sacrifices for them, aud manifest
their tenderness and love SO freely that
the name, Mother, is the sweetest in hu
man language. And yet sons, youthful
and aged, know but little of the anxiety,
the nights of sleepless and painful soiici-
tude which their mothers have spent
over their thou ughtless way ywardness.
These loving hearts 90 down to their
graves with those hours of secret agony
untold. As the mother watches by
night, or prays in the privacy of her
closet, she weighs well the words which
she will address to her son in order 10
lead him to manhood of honor aud
usefulness. She will not tell him all the
griefs and deadly fears which beset her
souL She warns him with trembling,
lest she say overln1ch. She tries to
charm hi:n with CHEEKY love while her
heart is bleeding No worthy and sue
cessfui man ever yet knew the breadth
an1 depth OF the great obligation Which
he is under to the mother who guided his
needless steps at the time when his char
acter for virtue and purity was so mar
rowly balanced against a course of vice
ani ignominy. Lst the dutiful son do
his utmost to smooth his mothers path
way, let him obey as implicitly as he ean
her wishes and advice. let him omit
nothing that will contribute to her peace,
rest and happiness, and yet he viii part
from her at tha tomb with his debt to
her not iIalf discharged
