LEFT ALONE.


Il They're only q mothers treasures.
A curl Of golden hair,
IA dolly limp and broken.
And frOck you used to wear:
And the tears are falling on them.
Afs For once you were her own, a
I But you were wed this morning, g.
N And she is left alone!
Twas hard to say goodbye, dear.
Twas hard to let you go.
But ah! the years bring joys ant
That only mothers know.
She looks at all her treasures,
And her tears fall like sweet rain;
She feels your tiny fingers
Upon her cheek again:
She seems to hear your f0otstep
Along the nursery floor
As she gazes almost blinded,
At the baby's shoes you wore.
Twas hard to part with you. dear.
She always loved you SO;
The love that's best beyond the rest,
That only mothers know.
It seems to her a dream, dear,
You've gone away a bride,
And that she will wake tomorrow
10 find YOU by her side.
.Ah, no. the tears are true ones,
But on her Bonded knee
She still can pray God bless you,
Though all alone Is she.
For life's made sweet by love, dear,
Where'er our footsteps go.
But angels write in words of light
The love that mothers know.

A BREAKER BOY.
An Illustrative Instance of the cour-
age and Faithfulness Of
True Wife.

The sacrifice which wife and
mother will make for the welfare OF
those dear to her is happily one OF
life's common experiences. A story
that comes from the coal regions OF
Pennsylvania illustrates not only this
fact but also another-which it is
good to keep in mind-that wherever
human needs exist there are always
those who are quick to respond and
relieve so soon as the needs become
known, says Youths Companion.
A certain woman's husband had
been sick long time, the funds were
exhausted, credit had been refused;
and starvation threatened the house.

tie children. The wife, unable to get
work in the neighborhood, deter
mined to seek it at the nearest coal
mine, which was some miles distant.
She knew that no women were or
would be employed there, but her
need was such that even this knowl.
edge did not deter her. She put on
suit of her husbands clothes,
walked to the mine and applied to
the boss for work. She succeeded in
getting place among the breaker
boys, and began her duties the next
morning.
Day after day, dressed like man
she did mans work, walking back
and forth between her home and the
mines through the winters cold and
snow. She was compelled to- endure
the harsh reprimands of the boss
when her work failed to please him.
and was often roughly treated by
her boy companions because her re.
serve and feminine refinement were
interpreted as reflection upon their
own manners.
One day, to tease her, one Of the
boys grabbed her cap from her head
and threw it along to one of his
companions. The sudden, sharp pull
loosened her long hair, and it fell
about her shoulders. The secret was
out and she was promptly discharged
Her wages as a breaker "boy'

Turkish vocali.n,.

Turks are very fond of singing, and
boys or men with good voices are
eagerly sought after to make up water
parties. Their songs, however, are not
pleasing to European ears. The singer
leans his jaw on his hand, as if he had
toothache, and then emits series OF
yells, which are impossible to convert
into words, but which are supposed to
form songs, nearly every word being
followed by the word "Aman." Some.

Commencement night arrived
Three dainty white dresses, all alike
to the last rufle, were laid across the
three single beds, and the excited
triplets were ready to slip into them.
Little Mrs. Stone was flying from one
tall daughter to another in nervous
haste, and Aunt Harriet, who had con-
tributed the dresses, seemed to be III
everybody's way at once.
cts pretty thick in here" said
Adalette, gathering up one of the
fluffy gowns. eff you don't mind,
mother, I think I'll take possession
of the spare room. I have an errand
to do besides, SO don't be uneasy il
you find that have gone on ahead"
There were twenty-seven graduates
of whom nineteen were girls. Mrs
Stone, down in the audience, tried to
distinguish her white-robed triplets
upon the stage. There was one au-
burn head. There was another, but
where was the third? Mrs. Stone
began again at the beginning of the
row, but only two Of the red-gold
heads could she find.
Adalette's essay was the fourth
number on the programme. Mrs.
Stone looked expectantly at her two
visible daughters. Neither of them
stirred, but strange girl at the end
of the first row stepped forward. All
the other graduates wore white. This
one was attired in quaint but be-
coming gown of pink and white
striped dimity. Her abundant hair
was black as night. So were her eye
brows.
.What," whispered Mrs. Stone to
Aunt Harriet, ''has become of Ada
Letter"
But surely, even though it trembled,
that was Adalette's voice. Surely that
was Adalette's essay. Mrs. Stone had
heard it too often not to recognize
it now. but where was Adalette? Mrs.
Stone snatched Aunt Harriet's opera
glasses, and gazed eagerly at the dark
haired girl.

to Aunt Harriet, "that's Adalette in

"But why" began bewildered Mrs.
Stone.
"Well." said Aunt Harriet, who was
a sensible woman in spite of her pecu-
liar taste in clothes, ''this is the occa-
sion of lifetime for Adalette, and I
suspect she wanted to graduate as an
individual and not as a triplet. She
has made that gown herself, for I've
seen pink threads on her dress every
day this week, and she has made a
good job of it, too. Sc here, Sarah

that after the Kansas City convention

that the paper states that Hill will be
