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
hold, in which there were three lit
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
a 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 a 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'
had barely sufficed to provide the
necessities of life for her home, and
the future seemed dark; but neither
she nor her household were permit
ted to endure privation long. Her
story no sooner became known than
sympathetic friends came forward.
not only with provisions for immedi-
ate needs, but with means to make
the future secure until the husband
should recover his health and
strength sufficiently to resume his
work.

LEFT ALONE.

They're only mothers treasures.
A curl of golden hair,
"A dolly limp and broken,
And a frock you used to wear:
And the tears are falling on them,
For once you We're her own,
But you were wed this morning,
And she is left alone!
Twas hard to say goodbye, dear,
Twas hard to let you go,
But ah! the years bring joys and
tears,
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 footstep
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.
1t seems to her a dream, dear,
You've gone away a bride,
And that she will wake tomorrow
TO find you by her side.
All, no. the tears are true ones,
But on her Bonded knee
She still can pray God bless you.
Though all alone is she.
For lifes made sweet by love, dear,
Where'er our footsteps go.
But angels write in words of light
The love that mothers know.
