ADDRESSES MOTHERS
Praises the Work Of the Woman in Bringing Up
Family Of Small Children and Touches
on Race Suicide
HOME LIFE MUST Be HEALTHY

With her. The Dirtn pangs make all
men the debtors Of all women. Above
all our sympathy and regard are due
to the struggling wives among those
whom Abraham Lincoln called the
plain people. and whom he so loved
and trusted; for the lives Of these
women are often led on the lonely
heights Of self-sacrificing heroism.
Just as the happiest and most hon
orable and most useful task that can
be set any man is to earn enough for
the support Of his wife and family, for
the bringing up and starting in life Of
his children. so the most important,
the most honorable and desirable task
which can be set any woman is to be
good and wise mother in a home
marked by ssIf-respect and mutual for
bearance. by willingness to perform
duty, and by refusal to sink into self
Indulgence OF avoid that which entails
effort and self-sacI1fice
Into the woman's keeping is COM
mitted the destiny OF the generations
to come after US. Some children viii
go wrong in spite of the best train
Ing; and some will go right even when
their surroundings are most unfortu-
nate; nevertheless an immense
amount depends upon the family
training
IF the average family in which
there are children contained but two
children the nation as a whole would
decrease in population so rapidly that
in two or three generations It would
very deservedly be on the point Of eK-
tinctiSa. 50 that the people who had
acted on this base and selfish doctrine
would be giving place to others with
braver and more robust ideals. Nor
would such a result be in any way
regrettable; for a race that practiced
such doctrine-that is, a race that
practlced race suicide-would thereby
conclusively show that it was unfit to
exist, and that il had better give place
to people who had not forgotten the
primary laws OF their being.
"The woman's task is not easy-no
task worth doing is easy-but in doing
IL, and when she has done IT, there
shall come to her the highest and
holiest Joy known to mankind; and
having done It, she shall have the re-
ward prophesied in Scripture; for her
husband and her children, yes, and all
people who realize that her work lies
at the foundation Of all national hap
piness and greatness, shall rise up and

Washington. March 14--An address
by President Roosevelt was the fea-
ture of the session Of the National
Congress OF Mothers, now holding its
triennial convention at the Metropoli-
tan NJ. p. Church. Anticipating the
presidents appearance, there was an
immense crowd at the church, COM
posed largely OF women. The president
was formally introduced to the au-
dience, by Mrs. Frederick Schoff. Of
Philadelphia, the president Of the con-
gress.
Among other things, the president
said:
"In our modern Industrial civiliza,
tion there are many and grave dan
gers to counterbalance the splendors
and the triumphs. II is not good thing
to see cities grow at disproportionate
speed relatively to the country; for
the small land owners, the men who
own their little homes, and therefore
TO a very large extent the men who
till farms, the men OF the soil, have
hitherto made the foundation Of last
ing national life in every state; and,
II the foundation becomes either too
weak or too narrow, the superstruc-
ture. no matter how attractive. is in
imminent danger of falling.
mo piled-up wealth, no splendor Of
material growth, no brilliance Of
artistic development, will permanently
avail any people unless its home life
fo ho.Itbty ,,rT,1a fhn orrorocro man
possesses honesty. courage. common
sense and decency, unless he works
hard and is willing at need to fight
hard; and unless the average woman
is a good wife, a good mother, able
and willing to perform the first and
greatest duty Of womanhood. able and
willing to bear, and TO bring up as
they should be brought up, healthy
children. sound in body, mind and
character. and numerous enough so
that the race shall increase and not
decrease.
mo ordinary work done by a man
is either as hard or as responsible as
the work Of a woman who is bringing
up a family of small children; for
upon her time and strength demands
are made not only every hcrr of the
day, but often every hour OF the night.
She may have to get up night after
night to take care of a sick child, and
yet must by day continue TO do all her
household duties as WE'LL and If the
family means are scant she must
usually enjoy even her rare holidays

AN OLD DEED

Drawn in 1872 and Sealed With Drops
Of Blood.
One Of the Oldest deeds probably in
this city is in the possession of Will
liam Negendank, Of No. SAC Tatnall
street. The deed is on parchment and
was drawn in 1882. It is for a piece
of property in Chester county, Pa. from
Peter Dicks and Sarah 5. Dicks, his
wife, to Joseph Swarfer and the con-
sideration is 800 pounds, English
money, or about $500 in United States
money. The seal on the deed is made
by placing drops of blood upon the
parchment which was a custom some
times followed in those days. It is in
good condition.

A Splendid Offer.

Very recently Mr.. Ed. Mcllhen
ny stated to Mr.. Louis 1ndest, of
this city, that he would do a good
deal for straight and direct
carriage road from Avery's Is
land to this city, and invited his
cooperation and influence 70 that
end. Mr.. Mcllhenny offers. $4,000
cash. and then when the new road
will have been properly graded
and drained he Will cover it
through it's entire length with
oyster shells from the MeIlhenny
cannery.
This is ore of the most liberal
propositions we have heard of.
and would he a most excellent OPP
portunity of demonstrating the
practical advantages of a good
road in the rural district. AS the
road is very nearly direct from the
Island to the junction of the rail
roads, there would be bnt little 70
do in that territory. From that
point to town will be the especial
section where new right of way
would have to be acquired and
the road building would have to
be done.
The police jurors of the wards
interested. we would suggest,
would be conserving the best in
terests of the parish roads by
looking into this matter and en-
deavoring to come to conclusion
with Mr.. Mc'lhenny. The prop
erty owners along the proposed
route would be called upon to
suffer some inconvenience, it is
true, by having their properties
cut by another read, but the ad
vantages of a good and direct
road to town in any and all kinds
of weather would compensate
them hundred-fold for all they
would contribute.
The $4,000 would be about sntfi
cient to grade and dram the road.
The parish should exert itself to
acquiring the rest-the right of
way and the opening Of the road.
| If completed it would at once
become the most popular thorough
fare in the parish for pleasure
driving.
