kissing Mother.

A father, talking to his careless
daughter, said
Il want to speak to you Of your
mother. It may be that you have
noticed carewOrn look upon her
face lately. OF course it has not
been brought there by any act of
yours, still it is your duty to chase
it away. I want you to get up to-
morrow morning and get breakfast;
and when your mother comes, and
begins to express her surprise, go
right up to her and kiss her on the
mouth. You can't imagine how it
will brighten her dear face.
Besides, you owe her a kiss or
two. Away back when you were a
little girl, she kissed you when no one
else was temped by your fever faint
ed breath and swollen face. You
were not as attractive then as you
are now. And through those years
of childish sunshine and shadows,
she was always ready to cure, by
the magic of mothers kiss, the
little, dirty chubby hands whenever
they we're injured in those first Skin
mishes with the rough old world.
"And then the midnight kiss with
which she routed so many bad
dreams, as she leaned above your
restless pillow, have all been on in
terest these long, long years.
'sOf course, she is not so pretty
and kissable as you are; but if you
had done your share of work during
last ten years, the contract would
not be so marked.
Her face has more wrinkles than
yours, and yet if you were sick, that
face would appear far more beauti-
full than an angels as it lowered over
you watching evey opportunity to
minister to your comfort, and every
one of those wrinkles would seem to
be bright wavelets or sunshine chas-
ing each other over the dear face.
"She will leave you one of these
days. These burdens, if not lifted
from her shoulders, will break her
down. These rough, hard hands
that have done so many necessary
things for you, will be crossed upon
her lifeless breast.
''Those neglected lips, that gave
you your first baby kiss, will be for
ever closed and those sad, tired eyes
will have opened in eternity, and
then you will appreciate your mother
but it will be too late"

Deceased was a model woman, a
loving wife and kind mother. The
instincts of the true and noble wo-
man we're her birthright. Friend

er wearied Of doing good. Her
grave will be guarded by love and
honor.

Like every profession the bar
bers of the state of Wisconsin are
endeavoring to create better class
of BARRIERS for the future, better shops
and better sanitary regulations.
They have the welfare of the public
in their minds and also the better
ing Of their own conditions. With
this in view they have formulated a
bill that will go before this legisla-
ture for consideration to make a
board of examiners whose duty it
shall be to examine all candidates
for the profession as to their profc-
iency and to their knowledge of the
diseases of the face and scalp and
the treatment for the same. The
bill is one with a most worthy object
in view and If the legislators see fit
to pass it the coming generation of
BARRIERS will be better fitted to meet
all emergencies and will be higher
grade workmen that have hitherto
been common. The bill itself does
not place any expense upon the state
but places all costs upon the BARRIERS
1t merely places the professions and
the jurisdiction of the shop within
the pale of law and of the local health
officers. One feature of the bill is
that it works no hardships upon the
the BARRIERS themselves and in the
end will benefit them
