Unhappy Mothers.

Not long ago, the lamentations of
mother over the conviction of her son in
court drove the judge from the bench
md drew tears from old and experienced
lawyers. There is something infinitely
sad about the devotion of a mother, and
the human heart can never resist throb
of sympathy when that mothers love as
serts itself. Courts and bailiffs, judges
and lawyers, court rules and stern de-
rrees, all yield for moment to the over
whelming power of womans love. All
bow in reverence and all sorrow in SYM
pathy, But it is only for moment From
his mothers arms the one who is ever
boy to her but man in the eye of the
law, is dragged by inexorable justice to
The punishment he has merited. And
then we wonder why that mothers love,
which appeals to all humanity with
irresistible power, was not strong enough
to keep that boy from evil ways and evil
ncs She would have given her life to
spare him at any time. All she asked
in return was for him to be true to him
self, Yet he was not. The sin which
wrong doers commit against society is
very small compared with that which
they commit against their mothers. But
they never think of that and the very
unself5hness of maternal love seems to
rob it of the power to restrain.

A commercial traveller not long ago
produced in the writer's pre- ;ence a
plethoric pockotoook apparently filled
with greenhack5. On my demonstrating
with him for carrying SO much money,
he said in the first place it was necessary
for him to carry large sums when hu
travelled but he aided in a very mys-
terious way that if he had no moro
money than was contained in his porte
monnaie he would be destitute indeed.
Upon being cross examined he stated
that the bills he had shown me were
green goods s"-outlawed bank bills Of
antebellum times: that he carried them
as means Of escaping robbery. He had
a special pocket made for his genuine
money aud carried the outlawed bank
bills where they could easily be found in
case any attempt were made to rob him.
lie stated that the idea was not original
with him. but had been in quite COM
mon use for some time, and that it was
the best means of protection against
pickpockets, footpads and train robbers
that had been invented.

Naming Ships of War.

The naming of vessels of the navy is
regulated by law. Vessels of the first
class are required to be named after
States, those of the second after rivers,
those of the third after principal cities
and towns, and those of the fourth as
the President may direct. The law is
not always observed as closely as it ought
to be, but in the main it governs naval
nomenclature to-day.

never dreamed nor Balllis ever saw. On

of the gown was Ornamented with roueS
Of linked pink coral set in damon Is,

about half of her ordors-5he has over

A new automatic chair recently on

held rigiIIy to the back, and cannot be
pulled down to a sitting position until

side. The seat of the chair is then
released, and the occupier is free to use
it as long as he pleases. When he rises
he must place an umbrella or other
article on the seat to prevent is flying

will have another penny to pay before
he can again use it.
