The Bravest Of Battles.

The bravest of battles that ever were
fought,
Shall l tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you'll find it
not;
Twas fought by the mothers of men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
With sword or nobler pen;
Nay, not with eloquent word or
thought
From mouth of wonderful men.
But deep in a walled-up woman's
heart
Of woman that would not yield,
But bravely, silently bore her part
Lo. there is the battlefield.
No marshaling troop, no bivouac song.
No banner to CLEAN and wave;
But O. these battles! they last so long
From babyhood to the grave.

Just About to Fall.

Have you seen the happy mother when
the babe begins to talk?
Have you seen her teach the tiny tan
gled feet the way to walk?
Ever near each slender shoulder, yet so
feeble and so small,
With her ready hands to hold her, when
she's just about to fall
Shut your eyes and you can see her m
the baby's childhood days,
When the golden CLEAN of sunset on
her tangled tresses plays
And the mother, though grown older,
still is near enough to call,
With her ready hands to hold her, when
she's ujst about to fall.
Now the baby is a woman, and she's
bending DER bed,
Where the spirit from the body of her
gentle mother fled;
AS the lifeless limbs grow colder,
"Mother!" hear her call,
But there are no hands to hold her, and
she's just about to fall.
Launched alone on life's rough ocean,
she is drifting with the years,
But the voyage is a lonely one. and
sometimes, through her tears,
She can seem to see her mother; she
can almost hear her call,
And by faith she sees another hand to
hold her should she fall.

MARRIAGE OF THE FUTURE
Women Will Not Then Sell Their Free
dom for Home Says Commits
sioner Wright.

One of the effects of the growing free
dom of women, according to Carroll D.
Wright, Commissioner of Labor, will
be to decrease, temporarily, the number
of marriages and increase divorces, but
the ultimate result will be a more
beautiful ideal of marriage than the
world has ever seen.
Women of Independent means" said
Mr.. Wright, in a lecture given yester-
day morning before the League for
Political Education, will not sell their
freedom and their souls in return for a
home and social position. In this they
are quite right, and 1 am able to see
no difference between the woman who
sells herself to a man permanently and
the one who does it for a temporary
period. When this necessity is remov-
ed marriages will take place only when
companionship in the hottest sense is
| intended, and the race will be recruited
from the highest rather than from the
lowest orders of society. Many lugu-
brious predictions have been made re-
garding the disentegration of society
that must result from the increasing
freedom of women, but 1 believe that
with more power they will act still
more wisely. Their loneliness will be
| increased, and their freedom will lead
| to happier and purer social conditions.
They will exert an influence which we
cannot now fully comprehend, and if
this leads to political life we must not
quarrel with it."
Up to the present time Mr.. Wright
thinks, the participation of women in
industrial life has done nothing but
good. They have improved intellectu-
ally and SO; far from the moral deter
ioration which was predicted from their
mingling with men in the affairs of the
world, the morals of working women
are on as high a plane as those of any
other class of women. if not higher.
Even that respect which civilized So
ciety has always accorded to women,
and which it was feared might suffer
under different conditions, had been
increased, rather than diminished, by
independence and proved capacity.
Mr.. Wright began his lecture with a
brief discussion of the subsection of
women. TT is difficult he said ''to
explain how this originated, but it was
confirmed and given a new lease of
life by religious texts of Scripture.
Men found in some misunderstood texts
of Scripture a warrant for their cow
ardly position; but though the degrad-
| ing doctrines of Paul cannot be ex-
planned away, l decline to believe that
any such teaching ever emanated from
the devout father or the gentle Nazar-
| enc"
The lecturer was introduced by Pro-
fessor Ely, who appealed to all those
who care for the rights of children to
write to Edgar T. Bracket, expressing
approval of the three bills in reference
to child labor which are now before the
New York State Legislature
Professor Ely also referred to next
| Saturdays lecture, on the tenement
house question, and expressed the hope
that the meeting would result in a for
NAL protest against the proposal to
change the present lawn. Y. Trib-

Like blind spinner in the sun

Appointed ways;
1 know each day will bring its task,
And, being blind, no more I ask.

Of that I spin:

And laid within
My hand the thread, and said, "Since

Sometimes the threads are rough and
fast
And tangled fly;

And fear that I
Shall fail, but dare not try to find
A safer place, since I am blind.

That tint and place,
In some great fabric to endure
Past time and race,
My threads will have; so from the first
Though blind, I never felt accursed.

From one short word
Laid over me when I was young,
So young I heard

My brow, and sealed me His. though
blind.
But, whether this be seal or sign,
Within, without,
1t matters not. The bond Divine
I never doubt.
l know He set me here, and still,
And glad, and blind, I wait His will
But listen, listen, day by day.
To hear their tread,

And cut the thread.
And bring Gods message in the sun.

THE PIMA.

In "Studebaker" painted green.
The Pima comes to town.
Small use has he for coat or hat
His coarse hair hanging down;
And he raps his ponies smartly
As he rattles into town.
Sometimes a load of good mesquite
The wiry ponies draw;
Sometimes his brown "muier' sits
Behind him on the straw,
With q black-eyed, plump muchacho,
The idol of his paw.
Behind him rise the foothills blue,
And many miles of sand
Lie round about his "wiki-up,"
While there at every hand
The sagebrush crouches colorless.
In a thirsty, sun dried land.
sun,
No matter how hot the day;
He likes to watch the women mould
Their ollaS of wet clay,
Or weave their baskets of willow bands
And see his children play.
Perchance his memory wanders back
To the days of the merry chase
When he saw his father hunt the hare,
With gaily painted face;
But tbs seldom he thinks OF battle,
For he boasts not a warlike race.
And so he basks in the present,
As the lizard basks in the sun.
If he sells his wood and grows his corn
He counts his days work done,
And looks not for trouble manana-
For manana is yet to come.
