In Memory of My Mother.

Who that has been bereaved OF a
mother knows the unspeakable grief
that surged through his heart and over
flowed in tears.
My mother departed this life March
20, and desire to pay brief tribute
to her memory.
She was born in the county of Lin
erick, ireland, in 1926, her maiden name
being Mary Harrison. Her parents died
in the prime of life and she was thrown
on her own resources.
At the age of eighteen she married
my father, who preceded her to the
tomb thirteen years ago. Since the
death of my father mother and have
journeyed through life, growing fonder
of each other as the years passed. Her
locks grew thin and white but her heart
retained its Christian fidelity, its pas
sionate love for her native land, and its
affection for her unworthy son.
She belonged to type of Irish Ca
tholic mothers who have planted the
old faith deep in the hearts of their
children, so that nothing can shake their
constancy.
She came to America in 1945 and be-
gan the struggle for existence in COM
murity inimical to those OF her race and
creed. Though uneducated herself, she
estimated the value of learning and
knowledge, and she made the most gen
crous sacrifices to give her children a
common school education. From her
lips | have heard the story of her trials
and self-denial that my brothers and
myself might be kept at school. She
worked early and late, stitching and
mending to keep. us presentable in the
old parish school, In those days par
ents paid for their children's schooling,
and my mother denied herself many
necessities in order to pay the village
schoolmaster. Noble soul! For her
lnotherly devotion I am grateful, and
on her grave I lay this fowerlet. No
mother was ever more solicitous for her
children's comfort. can remember
seeing her lowering over my bed at
night in winter, tucking the covering
around me before she would retire, and
she continued to do this until long
after l had reached mans estate. Mo
Their taught ME my prayers and led me
to church when l was toddling infant
and I CLEANED my first intelligence of
British injustice from her lips She was
a patriotic Irishwoman, proud of her
country and proud of her religion. She
loved God, believed in Him, and had
confidence in His goodness and mercy.
I am sure that God has wiped away her
spiritual in6rmities and admitted her to
the company of the blessed.
A mothers love is as enduring as the
eternal hills, and it only ceases with her
life. Mr.. Lincoln once said, Cali that
I am I owe to my mother" St. Angus
tine owed his conversion to the love and
unceasing prayers of his mother. t
When ones bark is tempest-tossed
and all others desert, a mother will
cling to a frail son or daughter to the
end A mother should be honored in
her home, or wherever the kindly light
of her countenance is seen.
My mother is no more. Last week
Gods f;noer touched her

New York stock, Money and Grain
Market Review

New York, October 23.-The warning
contained in yesterdays furry in the
call money rate to per cent was taken
to heart by the speculative element to-
day and the rather Incorporate buying
which has flooded the market since the
latter part Of last week was materially
curtailed. A great deal OF business was
done in the first hour, but the selling
to realize clearly outweighed the buying
dsmand, In spite of some sharp mani
pulative advance in few specialties, and
the average level OF prices went below
last night. The selling was not precipi-
tated and showed a tendency to decrease
as prices receded to the lower level.
But when efforts We're made to bid up
prices again. 1t was found that selling
orders were waiting at the higher level
in suffi cient volume to force prices back
again. Late in the day a much heralded
upward movement in Northern Paolfic
came into notice. For several days past
rumors have been hsard OF bull pool
in this stock based on the large short IN
terest known to exist. Great Northern
preferred was advanced points, co re
movement that the impairment in the
earning power Of railroads in that re.
gion by the shortage of the spring wheat
crop had been greatly overestimated.
There was a notable disinclinat1on In
the rest of the market to respond to this
movement and the reooveries were quite
insignificant. The fall in the call loan
rate to 3 1-2 per cent in the last half hour
was equally without effect in reawakened
speculative interest ana the market closed
irregular at small net changes.
The earlier rates for call loans ruled
from to per cent and it is not unlike
IL that the late reaction WAS due TO the
abstinence of the speoulators from fur
ther encroachment on money resources.
The events of tbs day had the effect OF
awakening some fresh uneasiness over
the money market conditions and these
were not altogether allayed by the re-
neWed weakneEs of exchange, especially
Paris cheque. There was a decided fall
ing oil in business in bonds and prices
reacted at various points. Total sales,
par value, 81, 600. 600. u. S. bonds were
unchanged on last call.
