saying that the European railroads through far denser
populations than those of the United States but on the
other hand the populations of Europe do not travel as
many miles annually as do the people of the United
stat and although there six times many people in
Europe as in the United States, they have only $4,000

The Dear Old Mother.

Honor the dear old mother. Time has scattered the
snowy flakes her brow, plowed deep burrows her
cheeks but is she not sweet and beautiful now? The lips
are thin and srunken but those the lips which
kissed many hot from the childish cheeks and they
the sweetest lips in the world The eye is dm yet it
gows with the soft radiance of holy love which
fade Ah yes she is dear old mother! The sands of
life nearly out but feeble she is she will go
further and reach down lower for you than any other
earth You cannot walk into midnight where she
you; you cannot enter prison whose bars will
keep her out you cannot mount scafod too high for
Of her deahless love- When the world shall despise and
forake yol when leaves you by the waysde die
noticed tie dear old mother will gather you her feeble
arms and carry you home aud tell you of all your virtues
until you almost forget that your soul is sgured by
vices Love her tendery and cheer her declining years
