From the Philadelphia Press
II IL difileult for persons in differ
ing circumstances to estimate the
eoet Of personal sacrifices. Only n
woman, whose glory aud crown Of
glory II her ane hair, can appreciate
the her0lsm OF the sieilian women,
who allowed themselves TO be shorn
like Samson for their eountry's
good. History tells us that In the
olden time the beautiful city Of
Palermo suffered from Q long and
painful siege from the 4sraeens.
Though greatly reduced by famine
and distress they still held out un-
dauntedly. At length, In add 20
their dis'nay, 10 was found that the
materials for making bow-strings,
which constituted their weapons Of
defense, were exhausted. They
we're upon the point Of surrender
ing, finding themselves entirely
unarmed, when q patriotic dame
stepped forth and proposed 10 the
brave-hearted women, that they
should cut Off their beautiful hair
and twist Il into bow-strings. The
proposition was no sooner mad.
than complied with. The beroism
OF the women not only provided
arms OF defense, but 30 animated the
courage Of the besieged by their
gallant sacrifice that they rene wed
their warfare with such vigor that
the assailants were beaten down aud
the city saved.
There II no sacrifice impossible to
woman's love! We all remember
the tender pathOs with which Victor
Hugo told the story Of Fantine, who,
In the mighty strength OF mother
love. denied herself everything To
provide for her child Cosette, from
whom she was separated, food aud
clothing, fire In winter, lisht at
evening, even the bird that cheered
her with its song. At length word
came that tOsette was la sore need

Later on, the cruel custodian Of
COsette wrote demanding 10 frances,
declaring the child was ~ aud in
need Of remedies. Undisnayetl, the
poor mother dragged herself To the
dentists chair aud had her exquisite |
teeth drawn aud sold them, saying |
