NV Mother. Good old Times.

MY Mothers Good Old Times.
On my head the frost is gath'ring with
the Inning OF the years;
On my features are the records Of q thou
sand hopes and fears;
In my checkbook there is written that
which forty years ago
Would have made my being tingle with a
wild, exultaut glow;
But. alas, within my spirit there's an
ever present ache
For the old corn beef and cabbage that
my mother used to make.
I remember when wandered o'er the
hills in boyish glee,
And the dinner horns loud echo brought
no boding thoughts to me;
I was young, and was happy, and my
stomach ne'er went back
On single proposition that my teeth
would dare attack!
Never thought Of dyspepsia as charged
the jelly cake
And the old corn beef and cabbage that
my mother used to make.
But the years have brought prosperity: !:
the servants In my halls
Keep their straning ears a-Quiyer for the
faintest OF my calls:
I have eaten of the fattest; l have drunk
the richest cup,
Just to realize at hast that these have
used my stomach up.
And I'd give my vast possessions to be
able to partake
OF the old corn beef anc cabbage that my
mother used to make
All the years I've sought the dollar, strug-
gled upward glow and sure,
With my pocket growing wealthy and my
stomach growing poor:
Every year l find my table moro with
luxuries replete:
Every year l find that fewer are the
things that I can eat.
Till the pathway back to childhood often
times yearn to take
To the old corn beef and cabbage that my
mother used to make.

CHAPTER Nv.

4 LESSON IN DANClNos
G0LAUGHED heartily when Jane
|W told me Of the tilt between
Brandon and Princess Mary,
WY the latter of whom was in the
habit Of saying unkind things and be-
ing thanked for them.
Brandon was the wrong man to say
them to, as Mary learned. He was not
hot tempered-in fact, just the reverse
but he was the last man to brook an
affront and the quickest to resent IN
cool headed, dangerous way an inten-
Honal offense.
He respected himself and made 9TH
ers do the same, or seem to 90 SO ut
least. He had no vanity, which IS Dut
an inordinate desire for those qualities
that bring self respect and often the re-
suit of conscious dement,, but he knew
himself and knew that he was entitled
to his own good opinion. He was every
inch a man, strong, intelligent and
brave to temerity, with reckless as
regard of consequences, which might
have been dangerous had 1t not been
tempered by dash Of prudence and
caution that gave him ballast.
was not surprised when l heard or
the encounter for l knew enough OF
him to be sure that Mary's high handed
ness would meet its counterpart in my
cool friend Brandon. 1t was, however,
an unfortunate victory, and what all
Mary's beauty and brightness would
have failed to do her honest, open ac-
acknowledgement of wrong, following so
quickly upon the heels of her fault, ac-
complished easily. 1t drew him within
the circle of her fatal attractions, ana
when Jane told me Of it knew his fate
was sealed and that sooner or later his
untouched heart and cool head would
fall victim to the shafts that SO surely
winged all others.
1t might and probably would be
later," since, as Brandon had said, he
was not one of those who wear the

~ met your friend. Did he tell youY''
heart upon the sleeve Then he had
that strong vein of prudence and eau
ton which, in view of Mary's unattain-
ableness, would probably come to his
help. But never was mans heart strong
enough to resist Mary Tudor's smile
for long.
There was this difference between
Brandon and most others-he would be
slow to love, but when love should once
fairly take root in his intense nature he
would not do to trifie with.
The night after the meeting Mary
cuddled up to Jane, who slept with her.
and whispered, half bashfully:
"Tell me all about. Brandon. l am
interested in him. l believe if l knew
more persons like him l should be a
better girl. Notwithstanding he is one
of the boldest men | ever knew. he
SAYS anything he wishes and, with all
his modest manner, is as cool with me
as if were a burghers daughter. His
modesty is all on the outside, but 1t Is
pretty, and pretty things must be on
the outside to be useful. l wonder If
Judson thought him modest
Jane talked of Brandon to Mary. who
was in an excellent humor, until the
girls fell asleep.
When Jane told me of this, became
frightened, for the surest way to any
woman's heart is to convince her that
you make her better and arouse in her
breast purer impulses and higher aspl-
rations 1t would be bad enough should
Brandon fall in love with the princess.
which was almost sure to happen,
but for them to fall in love with each
other meant Brandon's head upon the
block and Mary's heart bruised, broken
and empty for life. Her strong nature,
filled to the brim with latent passion.
was the stuff of which love makes a
conflagration that burns to destruc-
ton, and should she learn to love Bran
don she would move heaven and earth
to possess him.
She whose every desire from child
hood up had been gratified. whose
every within seemed TO her a para
mount necessity, would stop at moth
ing when the dearest wish a woman's
heart can coin was to be gained or lost.
Brandon's element of prudence might
help him and might forestall any eff
fort on his part to win her, but Mary
had never heard Of prudence, and
mans caution avails but little when
set against woman's daring. In case
they both should love they were sure
to try for each other and in trying were
equally sure to find ruin and desola-
ton.
A few evenings after this I met the
princess in the q1een's drawing room
She beckoned me to her and, resting
her elbows on the top of cabinet, her
chin In her hands, said: 81 met your
friend, Captain Brans.n-l. day or two
ago. Did he tell YOU.
"No," 1 answered. Jane told me,
but he has not mentioned it,

BUDS and FLOWERS OF
HOME LIFE.
Paine's Celery Compound Makes and Keeps
the Children Well and Strong.
Mothers Make It the Home Medicine
For Che Little Ones.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes wouid
be desolate They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, il we expect
them to ripen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times of i'll health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodess cheeks
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and twitch,
ings of limbs and muscles. They complain oil
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease will have
a fast and finn hold, unless proper measures
are taken TO restore perfect condition OF
health.
Thousands of wise and prudent parents have
made their children happy, healthy, and vgof-
Gus by giving them natures medicine, Pane S
Celery Compound. In many severe and com
plicated cases, Paine's Celery Compound has
restored health when the little ones were gwen
up by physicians.
If your dear ones are not as hearty, strong
and rugged as they should be, try the heaith
