A Big Family a Blessing.


Wilkes-Barre, March 20.-The largest
family in Pennsylvania was born at
Mountain Top, near this city, and still
lives there. The mother, Mrs. Samuel
Smartwood, has borne twenty-nine child
rem and twenty-five of them are living
Mrs. Smartwood naturally has advice
to give to mothers. In the first place
she advises marriage when young. She
married when she was IA. Here are
some of her maxims for mothers:
Work hard and always be cheerful.
Be mistress of your house.
Remember that the most glorious res
possibility in the world is to be a
mother
Do not be afraid Of having children.
never regretted the birth OF one of
mine.
The lonliest woman in the world is
the childless wife.
Do not mind what furniture you have
if you can fill the house with children.
Clothes go long way in our family,
and no garment is useless until there is
not enough left for the baby.
Lots of air, lots of sunlight, lots of
food and lots of love are good for children.
The Smartwood children all live at
home. The dining room at meal time is
a sight to make a census taker glad
Quantities of food sufficient to make
the average housekeeper gasp are CON
sumed at each meal, but Mrs. Smart
wood takes great pride in it.
"They are fine eaters, 'she says, beam
ing with motherly joy on her children's
healthy forms "They get all they want
to eat, but it keeps me and the girls
hustling."
Mrs. Smartwood says there is no
trouble in raising a large family. 81
would not be happy unless had them
all, 'she said. 81 remember when the
first ones came, and there were seven
of them by the time the eldest was five
years old. Then, l tell you it was hard
work, but as soon as they began to grow
up and help me it was much easier"
"The chief difficulty was about clothes.
They take lot and clothes cost money.
At first Sam and l had hard work to
get enough for them but once started We
used the clothes for all there was in
them, and | have cut down and reftted
them like tailor"
"You tell the women of the state that
big family is a blessing, They may
think differently, but know and they
don't.

their sympathy when death enters a

pamphlet descriptive of Crater Lake, by
j, $. Diller, the whole taken from the
Smithsonian Report of 1897. There are
sixteen superb Illustrations. The writer
closes with the following paragraph f:
aside from its attractive scenic feat
ures, Crater Lake affords one of the
most interesting and instructive fields
for the study OF volcanic geology to be
found anywhere in the world. Consid-
cred in all its aspects, it ranks with the
Grand Canyon Of the Colorado, the Yo-
semitic valley and the falls of Niagara,
and it is interesting to note that a bill
has been introduced in congress tomake
il national park for the pleasure and
instruction of the people.

we raise coyotes and market only cord

The Chnios Of Two Evils.

An omnibus silence greeted Bobby's
entrance. There was a wild look in
his eye; his clothes were disarranged,
and there was just suggestion of
blood about his mouth. Mamma
frowned severely, and papa hid him
self behind his paper.
"Ahem!" began mama. Bobby
squared his shoulders, and prepared
for the coming attack
"Ahem! Don't you know, Bobby,
that it's very wrong Of little boys to
fight?"
Bobby pretended to find a point of
interest in the pattern of the hearth
rug.
Haven't told you, Bobby, that it's
very wicked to fight?" demanded his
mamma, in a tone that was meant to
be sorrowful.
Thus challenged, Bobby fell back on
argument.
HE hit me first, mama" he pleaded.
"Ah. but that doesn't make any diff
ference. Nobody loves little boys who
fight
Bobby pondered for few moments
and then his face frightened.
Us that SOP" he asked.
Eyes, my dear, nobody will love you
If you are always fighting. And look
at your clothes"
We'll" said Bobby, with slow de-
liberation, then, mamma, thinks it's
better to be unloYed."
Something between a shrek and a
laugh escaped from papa as he fed
from the room.-London Judy.

RE MERCIFUL

The Every Evening wants the war
in the Philippines stopped, and after
vigorous fulminations covering a per-
iod OF some years. is now Offering GER
tain remedies This is Just where we
have wished TO sea our contemporary,
feeling that il would get little bit
WOODY when It came to suggesting a
reasonable alternative. Now, OF
course. We did not expect the Every
Evening to answer us directly. because
this paper under a former management,
once got under its epidermis and the
order was promulgated not to mention
the name of the Journal again, never,
no neverl And the Every Evening
never forgets-at least il never forgets
its castigations.
SO It answers us by quoting a similar
objection 10 ours in the Haverhill Ga
zette. Now. there are not many Ga
zettes taken in Wilmington, but (beg-
ging our contemporaries pardon) there
are several copies Of the Evening
Journal But getting back to the
Philippine policy, We are advised TO
'scuttle" This policy is announced
with the pride OF discoverer, and
now we have It's elaboration. This is
II:
First: Stop hostilities, by an
nouncing to the insurgents that the
United States Government proposes to
end the war by ceasing hostilities, on
its part.and then make that announce
ment good
- That Is very pretty, but II would re-
ouire many months TO remove all our
army. We should first stop hostilities,
and post notice to that effect. Then
the gentle Filipino would have mis-
revenge; he would hang around our
troops picking them on at leisure. safe
in the knowledge that the Atkinsons
had triumphed and orr soldiers were
powerless to raise a hand Perhaps
our contemporary would rejoice in
this, holding that il would be a Just
recompense, but II would be rather
uncomfortable for the boye in blue.
Will not our friend modify It's decree
allowing our troops to defend them
selves till they depart from the land Of
the free and the home of the brave
and then suspend hostlites? w,
don't wish to deprive these pot-belliet
Filipino patriots Of any pleasure, bu
we have a reluctance to seeing oul
savage troops shot down without /,
chance of defending themselves. lie
our contemporary be mercifuL
