If Mother Would Listen.

II mother would listen 10 me. dears
She would freshen that faded gown,
She would sometimes take an hours rest,
And sometimes a trip to town.
And it shouldn't be all for the children,
The fun and the cheer and the play;
With the patient droop on the tired mouth,
And the Mother has had her day"
True, mother has had her day, dears,
When you were her babies three,
And she stepped about the farm and tho
house,
As busy as bee.
When she rocked you all to sleep, deaD.
And sent you all to school,
And wore herself out and did without,
And lived by the Golden Rule.
And so your turn has come, dears.
Her hair is growing white;
And her eyes are gaining the faraway look
That peers beyond the night
One OF these days, In the morning,
Mother viii not be here,
She will fade away into silence
The mother so true and dear.
Then what will you do In the daylight.
And what in the cleaning diml
And father, tired and lonesome then,
Pray, what will you do fer himl
II you want to keep your mother.
You must make her rest to-day;
Must give her share In the frolic,
And draw her into the play.
And II mother would listen 10 me. dears,
Shed buy her a gown Of silk,
With buttons OF royal velvet.
And rufhes as white as milk.
And she'd let you do the trotting,
While she sat stlll in her chair.
That mother should have II hard all through.
1t strikes me isn't fair.

Sleeping and Watching.

| Sleeping and Watching.
Sleep on. baby. on the floor
| Tired of all your playing
| Sleep with smile the sweeter for
That you dropped away In;
| On your curls' full Toundness stand
Golden lights serenely,
| The cheek pushed out by the hand,
Folds the dimple inly.
Little head and little foot.
Heavy laid for pleasure,
Underneath the lids half shut.
Slants the shining azure;
Open soul in MONDAY sun,
So you lie and slumber.
Nothing evil having done.
Nothing can cucumber.
I who carnot sleep as yell,
Shall | sigh to view you?
Or sigh further to forctell
AL, that may undo you?
Nay, keep smiling, little child,
Ere the sorrow neareth.
| Will smile too! Patience mild
Pleasures token weareth.
Nay, keep sleeping before loss;
| shall sleep though losingi
As by cradle. so by cross,
Sure is the reposing.
Child at childish leisure,
| am near as tired Of pain
AS you seem of PLEASURE
Very soon too, by His grace
Gently wrapt around me.
Shall / show as calm a face,
Shall l sleep as soundlyl
Differing In this. that you
Clasp your playthings sleeping,
While my hand shall drop the few
Given to my keeping;
Differing in this, that I
Sleeping shall be colder,
And in waking presently,
Brighter to beholderl
Differing in this beside
Sleeper, have you heard me?
De you move, and open wide
Eyes OF wonder towards meO
That while you thus recall,
From your sleep, | solely.
Me from mine an angel shall,
With reveille holy.

A WONDERFUL CHANGE,
A Child's Complete Restoration to
Health.

Yes, sir; / can certainly say that the
treatment OF my little girl has been won
derful,' The speaker was Mrs. Annie Ell
Iott, wife Of Lycurgus Elliot, and living
on Webster avenue near b street, Park
View, Portsmouth. Mrs. Elliott talked
freely OF her child suffering and wonder
ful restoration TO health. The child is only
five years cid and bears the same name as
its mother. Here is Mrs. Elllotts state
ment: Less than three months ago |
carried my child to see DR.. Coates The
child had been suffering for three years
with catarrh of the head and no physician
In this city could relieve her. / read DR..
Coates advertisement in the papers but
would not go to see him until | had made
some personal inquiry. l saw Mr. III. J.
Lambert of Atlantic City. who had been
cured by DR.. Coates. and asked him about
IT. He told me that he valued the benefit
received by him at over 81 600. When
went to the Doctor my little girl was in
an awful condition.
There was a constant discharge from
the ears. which was horrible and very Of
fensve. She was deaf. had no appetite,
and her health was poor. In less than
three weeks 1 noticed the improvement in
her condition. Now she Is well There Is
no running Mt the ear, her appetite is
splendid. and that tired feeling has en-
tirely disappeared. She has also gained
in weight. All that l can say is that the
change in her condition has been wonder
full. and have no hesitancy in recon-
mending DR.. Coates to all sufferers from

Evening journal., 1893-09-25

Vidocq, the great French detective,
was born in Arras in 1915. He began
life as a baker and early became the ter
ror Of his companions by his athletic
frame and violent disposition. AT the
same time he was a notorious thief, and
after many disgracesnl adventures he en-
listed in the army. In 1895 hs returned
to Paris with some money, which, how
ever, he soon squandered. Next he was
sentenced at Lille 10 eight years hard
labor for forgery, but repeatedly escaped,
and in 1893 he became connected with
the Paris police as a detective.
His previous career enabled him tc
render important services, and he was
appointed chief Of the safety brigade
chiefly composed Of reprieved conyicts
which purged Paris Of the many danger
GUS classes. In 1918 he received full
pardon. and his connection with thi.
service lasted until about 1928, when h,
settled at St. Mande as a paper manu-
facturer. Soon after the revolution Of
1880 he became a political detective, bu
with little success. In 1S4S he was agar
employed under the republican govern

is worthy of special notice that when
.sh began TO model in clay not one Of
the artists who have given celebrity to
our native sculpture had seen the light
Of day. Frazer was not born until 1890,
nor Ezekiel Augur of New Haven until
1901. The latter was originally in the
grocery trade, but failing in that took
up modelling and wood carving without
any guide except his natural instincts;
but like the majority Of our early sculp-
tors, with the exception Of Rush, his eff
forts are interesting only as evidence Of
what talent entirely unobstructed can
accomplish.
It was not until 1905, long after Cop
ley, West, Malbone, Allston and Stuart
had demonstrated our capacity for pic
torial art, that Hiram Powers was born.
The same year Horatio Greenough first
saw the light Of day. In the remote
wtlds of Kentucky Hart was brought
into this world in 1910, and Clevenger,
Crawford and Mills followed in 1912,
1918 and 1915. Thus we see that, with
out hereditary genius or predecessors
from whom to copy, Rush achieved his
artistic results, and succeeded in win.

which made him the equal of some OF
the leading foreign carvers and sculptor.

sculpture. "-Lippincotts.
