What Killed Maria.

While talking once with a lady who had
passed her four score years sho said:
LAS look back over my life there is one
thing that fills ple with deep regret; that is,
Inever had tho pleasure with my family that
should. was always busy my days We're
spent in sewing and housework, and my even
ings in piecing quilts and making rugs and
rag carpets. never realized, until too late,
how much the conlpanionship of a mother is
worth to her children. No sacrifice that
could make would be considered too great
could only have the privilege now, as had
then, of gathering them around me in pleas
ant companionship."
While living in England once attended u
funeral ut private house i'll u country neigh
borhood arrived early, and the only occu-
pants of the room wero two women, who were
strangers to me. This is tho whispered con-
versation heard about the deceased
Eyes" said one, "Maria was master house
keeper. | never so much US seen a speck Of
dirt about this house in my life"
"Well," replied the other, there ought not
to be, for she was etelnaliy a-cleaning She
never took no comfort i'll anything; no, and
not a member Of the family had any comfort.
She worked till she got awful nervous and
broken down, and just 'twixt you and me
believe that's what killed Maria. Western
