The effort to organize a Mothers
Club on Tuesday was quite successful
\ good number responded to the invi-
tation and without exception every one
gave their names as members of the
club. We might repeat that this is the

but so often do the idea prevail that it
Is intended for the members only that
1t was thought wise to give this work
the shape of a club to which any woman
might belong and take part in without
becoming a member of the W. c. T. T.
or taking their pledge. We will in
volve no outlay of money unless its
members vote to tax each one perhaps
= or D cents to procure a book which
they propose to study. The work will
be arranged by a Board consisting Of
three persons whose duty shall be to

pointed were Mrs. Judge Roberts, Mrs
Boids and Mrs. Green. The meeting
will be held the 4th Tuesday of each
month at the w c. T. U hall from 3 to
40 p. III, and will be open to every
one.
Beside the organization of the club
Mrs. Bolds gave reading from Long
fellow and Mrs. Dole read an article on
"Child Government" which was fol-
lowed by a profitable discussion. Mrs.
Hartley presided and conducted the
opening devotional exercises. As the
intention is that the lady providing the

the next Mrs. Dole will preside at the
meeting in october. On Tuesday next

"Oh, yes. but 1 can't afford to go
away. L have no place to go except
here l must pay board, and that is
out OF the question"
The customer was wealthy and a
woman Of generous impulses. She bit
her lip and thought 4 moment: then
she looked again at the girl, whose
air and manner showed laSSitude and
WEAKNESS.

Why Not Collect seeds:

In these days Of stamp coin, she'll
mineral, plant and insect collectors, the
writer has often wondered why it is
that so few have turned their attention
to making collections of seeds. The
field as it appears to me, is one of eX-
ceptional interest; exceptional not
merely because of the work Of real
merit that may be done therein. but
because it is practically ineXhauStible;
because the materials are very largely
of such q nature as to be cared for
with a minimum amount Of labor, and
require but little space; and because III
many instances seed are themselves OBJ
iects Of great beauty. There are few
pursuits in which greater latitude may
be allowed, or greater opportunity Is
given for display of individual energy
and mental scope. The amateur. Wheth-
er man or woman, boy or girl, business
man or teacher. cripple or invalid, may
each and all collect and find ample
room for so much or so little study as
he or she may choose to devote to it.
One may only collect such seeds as
have in themselves some point of
beauty. or are Of curious shapes; may
know them only by their common or
local names. or may take up the sub
iect in a purely scientific spirit, identi-
fying A plant during its Towering stage
and finally collecting It's seeds when
mature, labelling them with both COM
mon and scientific names. date Of flow

form part of what in time may grow

Mothers Meeting. Past and Present

The mothers meetings Of today are
the lineal descendants Of the Maternal
Association Of fifty years ago. The first
Maternal Association of which We have
| been able to find a record was organized
in Brantree, Mass, by the girlwife of
Richard 5. Steers, over sixty years ago.
| She was but nineteen when she thus
set in motion the beneficent movement
which is blessing the world to-day
Mrs. Payson, mother of Elizabeth Prem
tice whose stepping Heavenward"
has helped many up the shining way,
was another lovely pioneer in this work.
! These mothers and their children are
! bright examples of the blessings of God
sent in answer to prayer ascending from
little circles Of praying mothers which
were soon formed throughout the land.
| Nor were they confined to America.
| They were trausplanted to mission fields
as soon as the gospel working there had
| developed the idea of Christian home
| Mrs. Schatter in Turkey, Mrs. Coan in
the Sandwich Islands, and Mrs. Riggs
Gin the lands of the Dakotas" are ex-
amples of those who thus planted moth
erS meetings on heather fields.
! Originating in New England and New
| York the Maternal Association can be
| traced across the continent in the New
| England belt"-Ohio, Illinois and other
| Northern states. We will give a few
| extracts from the. constitution of the
one in Oberlin, Ohio, which will give
some idea OF their object.
The time allotted for our monthly
meetings shall be spent in reading, in
conversation and praying for the bless
lngs upon our efforts for the immediate
conversion of our children, that they
may represent Christ in the midst of an
ungodly world.
"Beilvlng our own examples in many
! instances, to be the greatest barrier to
our work, We feel bound daily to watch
| our thoughts, our will, our temDers, our
GESTURES, our manners and our dress.
| We will cruelty self Our motto shall
be 81 can do all things through Christ
which strengtheneth me-"
Every member of the association
shall be held as sacredly bound to pray
daily for her children, and with them
! as often as circumstances will permit
She shall restrain them from every
course that would naturally lead to self
| ishness, pride, vanity, worldly minded
ness and unbelief
When any member is removed by
death, particular attention shall be paid
to her children. It is recommended
that those in our employment be par
ticuarly remembered at the throne of
grace"
| Subjects were discussed at there meet
ings, such as: "How shall we teach our
children to regard the privileges of the
| Sabbath"
How shall we promote truthfulness
in our children" Obedience?
GLOW shall amusement be combined
with instruction?
What kind ofliterature to place in
their hands?
Our responsibility to our public
schools We have now come To a
time when mothers meetings are being
revived; and as much has been learned
from past experience, they ought to de-
velop rapidly for good.

to be had in abundance in the meetings

THE GULF SHORE ROAD.

The LIGHT heartily endorses the follow
ing editorial, from our morning cOntem-
porary, and to give it more general circu-
lation in the city, repubiShes the same
in our large Saturday edition:
THE GULF SHORE ROAD.
Nero fiddled while Rome burned, and
the city council prOcrastinates while
hundreds of idle men, longing for some
thing for their willing hands to do to
provide food for themselves and families,
are waiting to secure employment on
the proposed Gulf Shore road. No one
would ask ther aldermen to take action
on such matters without first acquainJing
themselves with the situation; but in a
case OF such great Importance to the
people as getting to work on this Gulf
Shore road with the least possible delay
one would have thought that in the in
term between the Monday and Thursday
meetings every member of the Council
would have personally examined the
whole matter and been ready to take a
final vote at the last meeting.
To those who spent weeks of time and
labor and made liberal contributions in
money in their efforts to secure this Gulf
Shore Road for the city-those who have
always been ready with their time and
money to secure and forward any enter
prise that promised great benefit TO the
general publc-the incidents of Thurs
days meeting were diSCOuraging. The
building Of the road, If not the locating
here of the headquarters and machine
shops, seemed TO have been secured, with
the working forces ready to begin opera
tions; but there, entering protest which,
il successful, must prevent not only the
Gulf Shore, but every other proposed
road entering the city for If a few men
can stop road on one line, few others
can stop il on anOther) were principally
men who have been enriched through
railroads building TO the city and the
prosperity incidental thereto, yet who
would deprive the city Of this grand en-
terpriSe because the line chosen does not
run through their neighborS' streets in
stead of their own.
The Express in common with all the
people would object to the unnecessary
mutilatiOn of any street or part of the
city to give railroad right of way; but
they must be admitted on some line, and
when the one most practical for the city
and the company and promising the least
damage to property is presented the right
of way should bel granted. A few must
necessarily be damaged to more or less
extent in their property, but the law pro-
vides a remedy. Don't, for goodness sake,
don't try to block the wheels of progress
because the securing of great enterprise
might detract little from the desirable
ity of few cheap lots or cause slight
Inconvenience to a few in the matter of
crossing an extra railroad track in COM
ing to or going from town. The Express
does not believe the City Council will,
when all the facts and circumstances are
fully considered, see the efforts OF the
people to secure this road brought to
nullity because a few people want the
road to enter the city by some other
route"
