CARE FOR MOTHER.
Boys and Girle, in Her Old Age,
Don't Neglect Her.

What can possibly be sadder than
mother neglected In her old age ?
To think Of all the pain, sorrow.
trouble and anxiety she endured for
Us, her many sleepless nights and
ourdened days when she held in her
arms the little feverish, fretful body
who would allow 10 one else to hold
1t to relieve her own weariness
Then when health again returned it
was still continual cry for mama !
mama !" the livelong day And then
TO think that as the years pass the
growing children will depend less and
less on mother" till finally they
cease together to 60 to her for her
counsel and care, aud think because
she is growing old, faded and wrinkled
that sire does not care for love and
tenderness as all other human beings
do. They neglect to show her the
small courtesies we feel due our
younger friends, because she will
not notice them" or SHE Is 'tco old
fashioned to understand" the up to-
date politeness. To us at least it is a
heart. breaking spectacle to bcto.d,
for as mother" grows older we
should give her more instead of less
of our love and tender care, and
should honor her years and expe.
Iience by asking her advice even on
trivial subj cts, for she will then feel
that she is still necessary to US and
can have share in our daily trials
and joys as Of yore, when she was all
in all to us.
Take my withered hands in yours,
Children Of my soul
Mothers heart Is craving love,
Mothers growing old.
See the SHOWS of many years
Crown my furrowed brow.
AS I've loved and pet ed you,
Love and pet me now.
Lay your hands upon my head,
Smooth my whitened hair,
I've been growing old the while
You've been growing fair.
l. have toiled and prayed for you
Ask not why or how
AS I've loved ana petted you,
Love and pet me now.
Take my withercd hands in yours,
Children of my heart,
y b "" ihb oiS Johi iONS
Makes of life sweet part.
Touch with ioye my faded cheek,
Kiss my anxious brow.
AS I've loved and petted you,
Love and pet me now.
Take my withered hands in yours,
Hold them close and strong.
Cheer ne with fond caress,
Twill not be for long.
Youth immortal soon will crown
With its wreath my brow.
AS l loved and petted you,
Love and pet me now.
Take my withered hands in yours,
This your heart will prove;
If You owe me anything,
Pay the debt in love.
Pres me in your strong young arms,
Breathe loving vow
That as | loved and petted you
You'll love and pet me now.

These assertions are so sweeping and
uncompromising that they may well
challenge attention on the part of all
who would acquaint themselves with
the economic history of the country and
the desirability or undesirability Of
tariff revision. They are sustained by
such an array of testimony as TO give
them strong support. 1t will be well to

of an electric light attachment to re-

time screen himself in darkness. The

"MY WlFE'S PEOPLE COMING

Canada's thrush this year is wonder
fully great and considerably ahead of
any previous year. 1t is always inter
esting to those who contemplate moving

living in the country. 1t is therefore our
pleasure TO reproduce the following
written to an Agent of the Government

Birch Hills, Sask. Can, Feb. l, 1905.
Dear Sir: take pleasure in dropping
you few lines to let you know how we
are getting along up here and how we
like the place. We have been here close
on to a year now and think the place is
fine. We have been out every day this
winter working in the bush getting out
logs for buildings, etc, getting rails for
fencing. We have not suffered with the
cold as much as we did in Chicago. hiy
little boys are out every day with their
sleighs having a good time. The low
est the temperature has been this win
ter is "a below and it is very still, no
wind.
We had splendid summer. We put
up about 80 tons of hay aud will have
about 80 tons to sell; hay brings IS 90
per ton now and will be higher in the
spring. We have 20 acres broke and
ready for crop. We worked on the Can
Nor. Ry. for awhile this summer and
am just miles from the h. r. and
townsite. The steel IS all laid to within
miles of the River and we often see
the train bringing supplies for the
Bridge.
My wifes people are coming up about
May. | wish you would write them and
If there should be anyone coming to
Prince Albert that could do with half
a car let them know. The homesteads
are all taken up within IL miles of us.
/ often think If this land were only in
the States what a rush there would be;
it is the richest land and the most pro-
ductive l ever saw, and the climate Is
o. K.
l know that people back there that
write to do not believe me when write
them what a splendid winter we are
having, they think we are all frozen up.
We have only about s inches Of snow
and there are cattle on the range that
have not been rounded up this winter
Day after day the Their. raises up to
30 and GO, and don't believe we have
had a dag this winter that it has stayed
at zero. My wife says that we used to
think that zero was cold in Chicago. But
we don't mind 1t one bit. Christmas
night we went out and drove 5 mile.
with our 3 little boys, it was 20 below
and there was not whimper from any
one of them. I'd hate to do it in old

not do better than come to the Prince

OF BUSINESS FOR A TIME
Deadlock at Kansas City ParaIyzes
Municipal Operations

KANSAS CITY. April 1.-THE city
today was without city clerk, a comp
troller, an assessor or city physician,
the result of a deadlock in the council
in which the Democrats, who are in
the majority, have refused to confirm
the appointments for these offices pre-
scented by Mayor James p Neff, Re
publican. The terms of these four
principal officers expired today. The
office of the city clerk was locked and
the key turned over to the mayor. The
offices of collector and assessor were
closed to the transaction of all new
business, but the clerks continued to
work for the remainder of the day to
close up the books. The work of the
city physician was carried on by the
health board. Other offices were af-
fected. and much of the city's business
was at a standstill.
The deadlock was broken tonight
and the mayors nominees for appointive
offices were confirmed by the upper
house, the Democratic members OBJ

FIRE DESTROYS MILL
Diamond Lumber Plant Gives

The Diamond saw mill, Eighteenth ave-
nue. north and the river. Minneapolis, was
reduced to the level Of the ground last
night by fire. Flames were discovered
bursting from the roof of the building.
which is a great frame structure. shortly
after II o'clock last night. An alarm was
hastily turned in and was followed by
second and third alarms. which summon
ed TO the scene every available piece OF
fire fighting apparatus in the immediate
neighborhood.
Before the first engine company arrived
on the scene the whole building was
sheathed in great sheets of flames. In
two hours time what had been the saw
mill was smouldering mass Of ruins and
loss of $50 600, with only $40. 600 insurance,
was entailed to the owner. II. H Smith.
The mill was erected on built up ground.
consisting largely of riprap. odds and ends
OF lumber cuttings and sawdust. This
uncertain foundation caught from the
burning building and the firemen not only
fought fire which ragged before and over
them. but fire which burned slowly but
certainly under their feet.
A strange fatality seems to attend the
spot where the mill stood. Four mills
have stood on the site of the Diamond mill
and each in turn was destroyed by fire.
Twice last week this self-same mill was
found TO be on fire, but each time the
flames were eXtinguished with little dam
age.
