Jrbulahjons Of a Newspaper Editor

I business world! That would be better
than nothing! A man who subscribes
for a paper wants to get his moneys
worth, somehow. But these newspapers
are a regular swindle."
Mrs. Smith, an old friend Of ours,
wants to read the marriages and
deaths. She wonders why on earth ed
itors do not print all of them all over
the country; it would be, such interest
ing reading; and tell what they died of,
and how old they were, too. She thinks
it is a positive wrong to people who
subscribe for a paper, and pay for it,
not to know what people die Of. And
some editors never put that in!
Miss Angelina De Swasey wants
more poetry. Poetry feeds the soul and
inspires the spirit, and-and-makes
one feel so-so-so- -so-well. so sweet
and exalted! She wonders that editors
do not have more poetry. and she sends
her paper a sonnet to '9The Mild-Eyed
Neon" and in the next issue reads the
editors opinion Of the precious effu-
sion.

But among women there Is differ
ence. There are those who embody the
loftiest ideal Of purity, and there are
those who are prostitutes. This diff
ference will be fully apprehended only
by our descendants, but feel 1t my
duty to call attention to 1t.
Every woman, no matter how de-

with the consciousness Of the possi-
bility Of becoming a mother, fulfils the
highest object of life, higher than she

the will Of God, will also hold her chill
dren to the fulfllment Of this divine
will. To such a true mother it is tor
ture to see her child overfed, pamper-
ed and dressed up. because she knows
that all this will aggravate tha fulfill
ment OF the will of God on the part Of
the child which she has revealed unto
Him, nor will she teach her girl or
boy that which will enable them to es-
cape the troubles and cares Of life,
but that which will make them strong
to bear anything that might befall
them.
A true mother will not consider
white hanes and fine manners in the
choice Of husband for her daughter
and since she knows what Is true con-
duct and what is fraud, she will always

her husband, prize only that true labor

children, just as laborer does not
transfer his almost finished work to
another for completion, since he has
put his whole energy into it, the hard
er you labor the richer and the happier
will be your existence become.
If you are a real mother, you know
by your own experience that only SELF
denying, unostentatious labor which
imperils even your own life and tests
your strength to its utmost In order to
give life and maintain the life Of an
other being can yield you true satis-
faction, but that 1t also gives you the
right to make the same demands on
others and to call on your husbands to
likewise subject themselves to the la
bors Of life. You will measure and ap-
preciate the worth Of man according
to these aspirations and prepare your
children for the fact that similar la-
bors are awaiting them.

selves to be carried away by passion
and give themselves over to men at
the expense Of their honor, others vie
with men in the desperate struggle for
social position, and still others, al
though they do not forget the object Of
their life and even fulfill their mater

We men are so entirely taken up

whose end Is simply to escape all true
and honest labor.
The women who renounce the life
purpose of their sex and yet raise the
claim Of their rights, need not say
that such a point Of view is impossi-
bic for a mother, that a mother is too
much bound up with her children by
love to deny them dainties and pleas
ures or dress.
A true mother will think differently.
She knows that her duty does not con-
sist in making Of her children what
ever is agreeable to her or them.
She knows that she is necessarily
lowering between life and death when
she is bearing a scarcely budding life
under her heart, but that life and
death are not her concern, but that 1t
Is her concern to serve this life, and
this service she will not seek to evade.
but she viii go straight toward her
aim.
The Saint Paul globe., 1902-10-26

A true mother gives birth to and
nurses the child herself, prepares food
and drink for 1t, washes it, instructs
1t, sleeps and talks with 1t, because
she sees therein her life purpose. She
will try to make them strong to bear
trouble and labor, since she will regard
that as the sole happiness of life. She
will not ask others for advice; she her
self knows all and fears nothing.
Only such a mother can calmly say
under the shadow of death to Him who
created her and Whom she served by
the bearing and rearing of her most
dearly beloved children: Lord, now
lettest Thou Thy servant depart in
peace"
Such women, who fulfill their calling,
will always rule over men. They pre-
pare new posterity and guide public
opinion. In their hands, above all
rests the salvation of the world.
The Saint Paul globe., 1902-10-26

I'm order to be a true mother it is
not sufficient that you work and
worry in secret without receiving
praise therefor-for you are SIM
ply fulfilling your duty according
to the ideas Of some people-nor must
YOU look for any gratitude from those
for whom you work, and if they cause
you sorrow or find fault with you, you
must bear it without a complaint
AS in the case of the first child, so
in the case of the second and each
succeeding one, the same cares, the
same labors, and yet the true. genuine
mother will feel, in spite of everything
a quiet and deep satisfaction, although
she cannot expect any thanks, and
when all women shall think and feel
so the power over mankind will pass to
them and the salvation Of the world
will rest in their hands.

conceded that as between individuals,
the right to determine the disposition

also be admitted that whenever such
disposition transgresses public welfare
this prerogative must be modified, if

the lady, and the congressman finally

said that she always wanted to see
