Her son-in-law thinks she possesses rare
graces,
And loves her for giving him such a
sweet wife.
The home is dreamland of love when
she's in it,
No breezes of discord blow chilly and
An hour in its flight seems a bliss-laden
minute
When lit with the smiles of the mother
in-laW.
In sickness her voice so delightfully."-
Oft temQers the pangs of the demon
of pain;
Her hand when an invalid brow softly
smoothing
Cools down the hot fire of the feverish
brain.
She's here and she's there where her
service is wanted;
A sweeter old angel the world never
saw,
And glad is the home that is frequently
with the spirit so kind of the mother
in-laW.
Of course there are some that are thor
oughbred terrOrs,
For there are exceptions to every rule.
Ihey see in their sons-in-laW nothing but
errors,
And grade them about on a plane with
the mule.
Their eyes ever search for a cause for
They're expert of tongue and they're
nimble of jaw,
But, though all the wits of newspaper
dom Jump US,
We're 17ere to stand up for the mother
in-law!

TO AN ARTIFICIAL FLOWER.

Born in no garden fair-nor Natures
Child of a city workers cunning toll.
IIndlng no JOY in sun, breeze. nor rain.
Mocklng beauty you can ne'er attain.
Yet may your humble lot still happier
Than that your swester sister lives to
To her, fair daughter of the fertile earth
Gome Joy and homage a her very birth.
Inc welcome guest of peasant ana of
To her all lovers turn and poets sing.
She speaks loves message, thougn she
has no tongue,
She sings loves message, as no voice
has sung.
But when her little day has passed
Her charm and beauty fade, and comes
You stin are blooming brightly as of
Are priced as dearly as you were be-
You have not known LIES htfu1, fevered
Nor what it is to pine and droop to
You never felt the joys of love and life
You nave nave been spared their bitterness and
You bring no rapture, but you cause no
tears ~
Wake no SAD memories of vanished years.
And though all deem you but a soulIass
OF which no poet should e'er deign to
sing, ~
Who knows that some poor toiler, tired
and sad
sishing for Joys that she had never had
Whcse patient fingers fashioned you with
And made you-though a counterfeft-yet
Gave rot to you one spark of living fire

Her temper and actions they've thor
oughly cussedl
With fun driven heels they've endeavored
to grind her
Down into the depths of the rldicule

The air has been hot with the Jokes
they've fired at her,
You'd think her the worst 'un the world
ever saw,
And never a one has yet deigned to fatter
That feminine treasure, the mother-in

The angels would envy her sweet dis
A motherly smile ever clings to her
She's proud of dignity of her position:
her temper but rarely gets pared from
She thinks her dear son is a peach ripe
and mellow,
A pure earthly "anger' with never a

And nine times in ten the afectionate

Is madly In love with his mother-in-

Her visits are looked on as sunny GASES
To gladden. the dreary old desert of life,

POEMS WORTH READING.
WHAT'S LOVE:

Pray tell me what is Love?
A thing
OF which the birds
And poets sing?
A melody
Intangible,
But Wondrous sweet
And beautiful?
Or is it some rare
Prize
That money buys?
Or is 1t something vague,
A hint
Which finds development
In print?
Or is it sacrifice
And shame
Endured
In that dear name?
Or is it that plain
Sentiment
Which pays the bills
For clothing, food and rent?
or is it heart and soul and mind
Blind
To the world; clear-eyed and true
TO itself; ready to do
And to suffer; willing to give
Or to take;
To live
Or to die for its own sake9
Or is it pain and longing,
Eyes wet
With tears
That never can forget?
Or is it
Pray tell me what is love?

AN UNEVENTFUL COTTON MARKET Steady Decline Was Kept Up During the Day. LOCAL SHORTS FRIGHTENED
  There Was a Slight Rally by Locals on Covering Just Before the Close Fearing Higher Liverpool
 Cables Today
LOCAL SHORTS FRIGHTENED

New York, March 16.-There was subsid- ing speculation in cotton today and in a more narrow, less eventful market. With conditions not altogether weak, the mar Set began at decline of to Il points. The loss fell chiefly on the old crop posi- tiens and was due primarily to the dis appointing cables Following the opening call our market further declined 3@5 points; later the same parties who inaugurated yesterdays advance commenced to buy.
 Local shorts, after their recent experi- ence, were easily frightened and turned in as buyers rtlre result being an advance of 3Q17 points from the low figures of the morning. linen the special buying stop ped. The market left to itself showed a wavering front The net decline at noon was 7Qd0 points, having been about points lower than that at one time. Still later notices of the delivery of cotton for the account of New England mills were ten dered today by a firm of brokers, the cot ton being offered out of a surplus stock.
 There was but little further change in the afternoon, when trading was light, and for the most part local, except for a rally on covering just before the close on fears of higher Liverpool cables for tomorrow. Closed steady at a net advance of 1 point to a net decline of points.

TRADING LTGHTI
 IN WALL STREET Third Avenue Kept Its Position
 at the Front,
GENERAL TONE WAS FIRM
This Steadiness Was Probably Due to the Fact That the Bear Trad CTS Bought Stocks to Cover
 Short Contracts

New York, March 16.-Whatever signif- caapce attached to today's stock market was of negative character. Trading in the aggregate was on small scale, and even at that was congested in a few of the specialties Third Avenue continued to ab- sorb a large share of attention, and was the only stock on the list with any consid- erable range in the price fuctuation. After an early decline this stock moved upward over points and closed with a net gain of PIE points.
 Sugar was active, but showed a compara- tively narrow range and ended the day with a small net gain. Peoples Gas more than retrieved an early decline, and Pacific Mail was notably weak. Otherwise the dealings were small, price fluctuations narrow and the list of stocks dealt in a short one.
 That the general tone was firm was prob- ably due to the fact that the bear traders bought stocks to cover short contracts There was no evidence of any outside spec lIlative demand, but there was some invest ment in the buying here and there on a small scale. Probably the bears were in- duced to cover by the prospects that tomor- rows bank statement may fall slightly short of being as weak as was feared.
 Bonds were relatively more active than stocks, some of the dormant high-grade is- sues being dealt in at advancing prices. At other points prices yielded. Total sales, par value, $2,075 600. United States old As de- clined s4, and the 3s and 5's k per cent. in the bid price.
