Motherhood.
Oh, what so true, - pure, so good,
A love and pride OF motherhood
The tender watching and the care
That have no likeness anywhere?
What men most bold would fear to do
A mothers heart will carry through.
Love is too strong to think on death.
A child is more than living breath.
A MOI her = love is ford and wise,
Her soul Is in her baby 5 eyes.
To her the laugh that shakes its throat
Is swccter than the throstlc's note.
Her life is in the child she bears,
Nor withcrs with the waste of years.
Though promise may in failure die,
'Tis love that makes her weep and sigh.
Her love indeed outlivcS her days.
Her children treasure up her praise,
And, though no more they see her face,
Her name retains its native grace.

wants ana Needs.

A "need is one thing; want" is an
other thing. We want great many
more things than we need. Agood par
ent wants the child to have whatever he
needs, and is ready to secure such
things for him if within his power. He
would be culpable parent who would
give his child whatever things he want
ed, whether he needed them or not.
A parent is, in fact, set to the duty of
keeping his child from having many
a thing that he wants, as well as Sc
curing for the child whatever he needs.
Our Heavely Father is truest and best
Of parents in this same discrimination
of gifts to His children. He knoweth
what things we have need Of before we
ask Him. We tell Him the things that
we want. We ought to be grateful that
God will notgive us the things that we
want unless He knows that we also
have need Of fthem.-Detroit Free Press.

building of 5000 miles Of railroad
means the investment Of about $780,
600, 600. and the permanent employ

there are $50 now lines projected or un-

4O.5 563 miles. OF these lines less than

"HoT TIME" AT FUNERALS
Lively Music that Follows the Burio'
of Soldiers in Cuba.

of Soldiers in Cuba.
War has introduced strange funera.
customs among the United States
troops in Cuba. The Increase of the
appropriation for the burial of privates
from $40 to $50 has enabled the COM
rades of men who have given up their
lives for their country to provide cere-
monies that are impressive and to in
sure the proper care of bodies.
Notwithstanding the number of
deaths that have taken place within
the year of war, the Americans have
not become blunted. and funerals are
attended with much solemnity, only
one strange custom marring the I'M
pressiveness of the ceremonies. The
Cemetery in which the dead belonging
to the companies stationed at Matan-
Zas are placed to await removal to the
United States is about a mile from the
city. SIX soldiers carry the casket con-
tanning the body of a soldier upon their
shoulders. each detail of pail bearers
being relieved every few rods. AS the
little company of men march out in the
early morning, or at sundOwn, the band
plays the Dead March from Saul OF
"Chopin's Funeral March," Officers
and men advance with measured tread
The chaplain reads the burial service.
heads are bowed, and the casket is con-
signed to the receiving vault. There Is
a moment Of silence. The chaplain
turns away, the men face about, and
then the band plays "a Hot Time In
the Old Town Tonight"
The funeral is thing of the past.
The tune restores the soldiers to cheer
fulness. When they reach the camp
on their return all the sad associations
of the death and burial are forgotten.
