The jury. however, found the pris

Motherhood.

This is one of the most beautiful
words in our language-beautiful not
as coll0cation of letter symbols or
sounds but for its manifold meaning.
When it is pronounced in appropriate
connection a swarm of gentle and ten
der thoughts spring up and hover
about it like honey-laden bees around
their hive; for it is generally conceded
that the highest type of human affec-
ton, the purest. most self-sacriiiclng,
most enduring. is that of motherhood.
In law, in custom. in literature, in art,
in religion, the richest tributes of ad-
miration and respect have been laid at
the feet of the mother.
1t is not strange that among certain
peoples, notably the Hebrews, mater
nifty was eagerly desired by married
women; and the grief of those who re-
manned unmarried after attaining a
marriageable age was not that they
failed to capture man. but that they
were denied children. While to be a
married woman and be childless was
regarded as reproach. RachePs APP
peal to her husband. "Give me chill
dren or l die" is the pathetic outcry
of heart that was breaking from its
unsatisfied longing for motherhood
One would conclude from certain
positive utterances in the press that
the maternal instinct has quite ex-
pired in American wives of the better
grade; that is. the more intelligent
grade; but 1t is well ascertained that
ii survives, though not so generally
and intensely as is desirable. A little
more simplicity in the mode of life, a
little less. of bondage to the despotic
mandates of society, little more OF
domesticity or plain love of home, and
nature will assert herself, TO elevate
the race and to bless the world.-The
Pilgrim.

little man went on. getting quite iusolent
in his anger.
The duchess made no sign while her
son-in-law ran on in his Infatuated and
insolent manner, but as the door opened
and be came to an abrupt end, she turned
on him.
"The carriage is ready, Lord Dales-
water; you have really no time 10 lose"
Lord Daleswater's brows turned purple
with suppressed fury; rage. insults
rushed to his lips; but somehow the sight
of the tall, commanding woman. regal in
bearing and dignity, and the quick sense
that she had conquered him. carried the
moment without a word or sign; he turn

Without exception the skirts which
are worn with the bodice coats arc
strictly tailor-made. They may be
fashioned with tucks innumerable OIL
they may be strapped, banded or other
wise trimmed, but over all there will
be the tailor finish, which, contrasting
with the coat, gives it the required
"new" appearance. This effect is gain
ed in many ways, and its popularity ii
bound to give the plated skirt no,
vogue than it enjoyed even at the be
ginning of its reign.
There are really two distinct classes
of jumpers, those to be worn with two
piece street suits over lingerie or shirt
waists, and which practically convert
such street suits into dresses; and the
fancy jumper, which may be worn with
silk or cloth skirt with perfect pro
priety at simple dinners and to con
certs and the theater. Those included
in the first class must be made of ma.
terial like that of the skirt, or of diff.
ferent material which perfectly match

BLUE FLOWERS OF THE ANDES.

How Pretty Girls Sell the Blossoms
TO Mountain Travellers.
Some of the smaller of the railroad
towns of Chill are we'll worth Drawing

Is one l remember in particular, stu
ated near the summit of the divide be-
tween the valleys of the Mabocho and
Llai Llai, where the great mountain
blue flowers and the little Andean deer
are brought down.
The strangely beautiful blue flower
Of the Cordillera blossoms only for
few weeks In the spring, at which time
it Is gathered high up at the snow line
by the lithesome village maidens and
brought down to the train to sell. The
petals, blue as the sky, are as delicate,
soft and pliable as the palm OF q fine
kid glove, and resist tearing almost as
strongly. IL a petal Is twisted and
wrung between the fingers it exudes
drop OF liquid possessing most power
full and penetrating, but thoroughly
pleasing odor. This juice is as strong
as fiavorlng extract, and a drop Of 1t
will give perceptible taste to a gallon
Of water, from which arises a practice
in witchery by the willy mountain
maids
They wait until you are finishing
your breakfast. when one slips up to
your side and holds a big bunch Of
flowers for you to bury your face in by
way Of sampling, while another exc
cutes a flank movement on your unpro-
tected side and drops some bruised
petals into your coffee. When your
face comes out OF the flowers and you
begin to sip your coffee, they both
laugh and clap their hands and tell
you not to be angry, as it Is only a
''costumbre del pueblo"-a custom Of
the village. OF course. you are not
angry and II you are not pretty mean,
you are sure to buy blue flowers from
then on till train time at prices as
lofty as their habitat This blue flow
er craze doesn't hold you long, but
while it lasts it would be cheaper to
be an orchid fancier.
1t Is much cheaper, in fact, far more
satisfactory in the long run, to buy
deer than blue flowers; the deer you
can ship in the baggage car, while the
blue flowers require personal attention.
And even If you do enter Valparaiso
with the deer n your arms your
friends will not ask you if you were
drugged into buying it. That's the
trouble with the blue fiowers-every
one knows where you got them, and
from whom you got them. They don't
know how much it cost you to get them.

are worth--Los Angeles Times.

AMIR's UNAVAILABLE WIFE.
She Has Three Murders Charged
Against Her III Temper.

She Has Three Murders Charged
Against Her III Temper.
Though subject to Great Britain In
all its foreign relations, Afghanistan Is
independent in it's internal affairs and
the Amir is an absolute monarch. The
country covers an area about equal to
that of the New England States plus
New York. Its population is estimated
at nearly 100000. The present Amir
was born in 1872 and succeeded to the
throne in October, 1901.
The Amir supports considerable
concubines he has, but there are four
regularly recognized wives, the chief
of whom, known as the queen wife, en-
joys an allowance of $4,000 a year.
The allowances of the other wives are
100000, $4,000 and $4,000, accord
ing to seniority.
There is also a queen mother in this
complex family, and 1t Is well known
key and parrot time Of it in maintain
ing domestic discipline. The queen
wife, who was formerly a slave girl
and whose beauty infatuated Habib
Ullah while he was yet prince. is a
termagant of the fiercest description
She Is madly jealous, obviously with
cause enough, and has not viewed the
accession Of other wives with any de-
gree of equanimity. but she cannot
help herself, because the Amir MAIN
tains, and the law justifies him, that
his rank entities him to at least four
wives SO the queen wife takes 1t out
on her attendants. She chastises them
freely and frequently, and thus far has
killed three of them with her own hand.
Accountable this may seem in the
eyes of western civilization, the worst
Of it is, so far as the Ami. is concerned,
that the queen mother, the queen wife
and all the other wives are forever In
terfering in politics. Their jealousies
and conflicting intrigues keep the court
in turmoil, and tenure of office Is pre-
carious, for Habib Ullah is not cele-
brated for firmness. He is good-na-
tured and prone to avoid trouble by
yielding to 1t.
