Your Mother.

Honor the dear, aged mother. Time
has scattered snowfakes on her brow,
pillowed deep burrows in, her cheeks,
hut she is sweet and beautiful now!
The lips are thin and s,inken, but those
are lips that have kissed many;a hot
tear from childish cheeks, and these
are the sweetest lips in all the world.
The eye is dim, yet it ever glows with
soft radiance of holy love which can
never fade:~ All, yes; she is dear old
mother. The. sands of life are nearly
run out, but, feeble as she is, she will
go further and reach down lower for
you than all others on earth. You can
not walk into midnight where she
cannot see .you;r you cannot walk into
a prison whose bars will keep her out:
you cannot mount q scaffold too high
for her to reach, that she may kiss you
and bless you in evidence of her death
less love. When the world despises and
forsakes you, when it leaves you by the
:wayside to die; unnoticed, the dear
good mother will gather you into her
feeble arms and carry you home, and
tell you oil your virtues, until you al
most forget your soul is. disfgured by
vice. Love her tenderly and cheer her
declining years with holy DEVOTION

New UR0 for Hair.

A fact that has recently come to light
shows a new use to which human hair
has been put. During the last year or
two tons of hair have been packed be-
tween the plates of certain parts of
war vessels. Hair is very elastic, and
thus affords a very effective backing
to medal. Again, it is being used very
satisfactorily to form a kind of fender
which is thrown over the side of the
vessel to prevent her scraping against
the doch-to take the place, in fact, of
more commonly used rope coils.-Phil-
adelphia Press.

Medical Man Who Existed for Thirty
Days ON Sweet MIX. ,sst5
q medical man expresses the belief
mat person could live for any length
OF time and take heavy exercise all the
while on no other food than sweet
milk. His conviction is the result of
personal experiment..
he wanted to establish the fact that
persons convalescing from sickness
may grow stronger with no other nut
riment than sweet milk, and that they
are obliged to take something solid''
20 eat, as so many people imagine. He
nolos tnat many ;cony alescent has
mas gone into his grave as u result of
overtaxing his week stomach by put
ting "solid" food into it, and he main
tains that the old belief as to bread
being the first essential of human life
is shown by his experiment to be erro-
neous. u
His test was to live 80 days with
only sweet milk as nourlshment In
the hole time he lost 81 pounds in
weight, but no strength. He even at
tributes the loss of weight to the
warmth of the weather and to exces-
sive exercise on the bicycle, and the
daily manipulation of 1e-pound dunn.
bells and other heavy weights. He
took more exercise than usual in order
to test the thing fairly. On the seventh
day of the experiment he ran several
fast races in skillful manner, but
was beaten IN each race. ~
On the thirtieth day he again pitted
himself against the same runner and
got the best of the opponent, which
certainly would tend to confirm his
statement that he lost no strength dur
ing 80 days test. He drank four pints
of milk daily for the last week. He
thinks a healthy person should take
about five pints of milk daily when no
other food is being taken. His prac-
tice was to drink milk at intervals of
two hours for the day, commencing at
seven o'clock in the morning and con-
tinuing until ten at night. After that
he would take no more until the next
morning.-St Louis Post Dispatch.

"TOO Good nm Arab. -

DIR. Van Dyck, who recently died
at Beirut, Syria, was known through
out that country as ''El Hakim," the
doctor. The definite article was always
used when speaking of him, because
to the natives he was the physician who
cxcelled all others.
+ He went to Syria from New York as a
missionary physician, and soon became
so fluent in the speech of the Arabs that
they, though fastidious in the matter of
language, enjoyed, listening to him.
Once his fuency came near costing him
his life. -.u .
From the beginning of his work he
endeavored to enter into the life of the
Arabs, learning their customs as we'll
as their language, adopting their ways
so far as possible, and making himself
in sense, one of them. In this way he
acquired a great personal influence.
At first he adopted the native dress,
but during an outbreak between the
Maronites and the Druses, as he was re-
turning one. night from visit to a
patient, he was seized by band of
marauders, who were about to assassi-
nate; him. !: ~ T.s*&: 81
He protested thatshe was an .Ameri-
cam. a. physician who had been in at
tendance on one of their own men, but
his Arabic was too perfect-they did
not believe him. As shibboleth, they
asked him a question, the answer to
which involved the mention of certain
bridge. His unhesitating answer. was
near being his death, for they dragged
him from his horse, declaring that no
foreigner could pronounce that word.
DR.. Van Dyck, however, insisted on
being taken before the sheik, and his
manner was so, impressive that his de-
mand was granted. The sheik .recog-
nized him, and sent his late captors
home with him ais guard; but warned
him never again to wear native dress
he was too good an Arab! He never did,
though in his later years he wore the
loose, sleeveless cloak common among
the upper classes as an outer garment,

ter lost her temper over his procrastina-

broke his heart and entirely silenced his
tongue. f S.
After she was gone, hopelessly gone,
he determined to reveal the secret of
his heart, by letter. But. being named
GUSTS Randolph, he put off doing it. In
stead, he swung on his hammock all
day, and thought OF her blue eyes and
pretty face and guileless smile, and re-
GREETED his erstwhile constant compan-
ion. The ambulance would return,
empty OF its lovely load, in five days.
He knew that. He would write when it
returned. .fs5 1t AZ: II.
So, on the afternoon of the fifth day,
he sat, still swinging in the hammock
and smoking pipe, the ashes whereof
besprinkled his coat, when the four
mules and the ambulance ratified into
the post. They stopped at the majors
quarters, in cloud Of dust, and two
men and woman alighted. There was
no doubt about who the woman was.
In his delight, Randolph lost his head.

Miss Spencer was still standing by the
ambulance, hunting-with the drivers

seats. The major and Teddy had gone
