A Mothers influence.

1t is hard Tor young mother who has
not yet overcome the wayward tenden-
cies of her own youthful nature, to
realize the influence she exerts over her
little ones. She is continually SUR
rounded by critical imitators, who copy
both her morals and her manner. As
the mother is, so are her sons and
daughters. If family OF children are
blessed with an intelligent mother, who
is dainty and refined in her manners, and
does not consider it necessary to be one
woman in the parlor and an entirely dlt~
ferent person in her everyday life, but
who is a true mother, and always a
tender. charming woman, you will IN
variably see her habits of speech and
pleasant manners repeated in her
children. Great rough men, and noisy,
active boys viii always tone down their
voices, and strive to step quietly, and to
be more mannerly, when she stops to
give them a kind word or pleasant
smile, for a true mother will never fail to
say and do all the kind and pleasant
things she can that viii in any way help
to lit up and cheer those whose lives are
shaded with toll and care. The mother
of to-duy rules the word of tomorrow.
Think of it when you sre tempted to be
fretful and impatient, and guard well
vol,r home treasures.

The TwO-Headed Eagle.

The origin of the device of the eagle
on national and royal banners may be
traced TO the very early times. 1t was
the ensign of the ancient kings OF Persia
and Babylon. The Romans adopted
many other figures on their camp stand
ards; but Marius B. @. 1922 made tie
eagle alone the ensign of the legioDs, ard
confined the figures to the cohorts.
From the Romans the French under the
empire adoped the eagle. The emperors of
the western Roman empire used black
eagle; those of the east golden one.
The sign of the golden eagle met with in
tayerns is in allusion to the emperor of
the east. Since the time OF the Romans
almost every state that hiss assumed the
designation of an empire has taken the
eagle for its ensign-Austria, Prussia.
Russia, Poland and France all took the
eagle. The two-headed eagle signifies a
double empire. The emperors of Austria,
who claim to be considered the sue
cessors of Casar of Rome, use the
double-headed eagle, which Is the eagle
of the eestern emperors with that of the
western, typitying the Holy Roman
Empire" of which the emperors of Ger
many (now emerged in the house o
I! Austria) considered themselves as the
representatives. Caarlemagne was th'
| first to use it, for when he became mss
| ter of the whole German empire, n
! added the second head to the eagle, A

An Original Portrait Painter.

Mr.. Whistler, according to the London
World, paints portrait in this odd
style.
His entire apparatus is on large
scale. His palette is a table. His
brushes are more like those of a house
painter than of an artist. With extra
ordinary rapidity, without sketching any
outline, he throws, as i. were, the back
ground on the canvas as if the figure
were rather the accident than the motive
of the study. Then, beginning at the
bottom of the robe, he proceeds to paint
his figure upward as a sculptor builds
uD his model y, clay, Nit by bit from the
base. While litors-sly
work a gyarde coup de pinceaa the painter
is study in himsef-of combined
mental and physical activity. The pace
is tremendous, the face and head being
painted almost as rapidly as the fringeof
the robe. At the end of an hour and a
half there is a picture, susceptible, of
course, of being painted over and finished
to an unlimited extent; but in its pre-
sent condition perfect picture enough,
conveying as precise an idea of the
figure, carriage, features and character Of
the original as did the wonderful por
trait of Mr.. Carlyle exhibited at the
Grosyeuor Gallery"
