A Mothers Arxument.

The most to be regretted act of my
nfe," says commander of the navy.
was letter I wrote to my mother
when about seventeen years of age.
She always addressed her letters to me
as my dear boy l felt at that time
was a man, or very near it, and
wrote saying that her constant adj
dressing me as boy made me feel
displeased. received in reply a letter
full Of reproaches and tears. Among
other things, she said: You might grow
to be as big as Goliath, as strong as
Samson and as wise as Solomon; you
might become ruler of q nation or en-
peror Of many nations, and the world
might revere you and fear you, but to
-FOUR devoted mother you would al
ways appear in memory in your inno-
cent, unpretentious, unself conceited,
unpampered babyhood. In those days
when I washed and dressed and kissed
and worshiped you. you were my idol.
Nowadays you are becoming part of
gross world BY contact with it, and
cannot bow down to you and worship
you, but II there are manhood and
maternal love transmitted to you, you
will understand that the highest COM
pliment that mother love can pay you
10 to call you my dear boy"

Some Old Time Giants.

Cajanus, a Swedish giant who was
nine feet high. was on exhibition in
London in 1742, and several old hand
bills still exist which set forth the
measurements of this freak Of nature.
Thirty years later we have Charles
Byrne, who was eight feet four inches
In height in bis stockinged feet. He,
however. died young, at the age of
twenty two, from hard drinking Cot
ter O'Byrne, another Irish giant, fol-
lowed a few years later. He was
born at Kinsale in 1851 and at the age
Of fifteen was eight feet high. This
by the time he was twenty three had
increased to nine feet four inches, and
then he changed his name to O'Brian
In order to make people think that he
was descended from King Brian b.
rolhme and went on exhibition. At
that business he, of course, soon real
izedra very comfortable fortune and re-
tired, dying at Clifton on Sept. s, 1904.
His will especially provided that his
body should be thrown into the sea in
order to prevent the surgeons from cut
ting it up.

Mother Goose.

The most popular children's book
ever written was Mother Goose's Mel
odies." Mrs. Goose, or Mother Goose,
as she was Familiarity called, was the
mother-in-law Of Thomas Fleet, Bos-
ton printer early in the century, When
his first child was born his mother-in-
law devoted all her attention to the
baby and, it is said, greatly annoyed
Fleet by her persistent and not par
ticularly musical chanting Of the old
English ditties she had heard In her
childhood. The idea occurred to Fleet
of writing down these songs and pub
fishing them in book form. The old
est extant copy bears the date Of 1919.
The price marked on the title page
was two coppers." This account Of
the origin of Mother Goose is discred-
tied by some critics, who declare that
In 1897 Perrault published "Contes de
ma Mere lOye," or "Stories Of Mother
| Goose" The name Mother Goose was
familiar in French folklore, being used
by writer's of this literature over cen
fury before the time Of Perrault.

A Celebrated Clock.

The art Of the clockmaker has
achieved many remarkable triumphs
during many centuries. Sometimes it
is a clock wonderful for the complexi-
ty Of its movements and Its busy popu-
lation Of automatons that attracts our
admiration, like that in the Cathedral
Of Strassburg At other times the i'm
mense size Of the machinery and the
dials excites establishment. This is the
case with the celebrated clock in the
tower Of the Church Of st. Rombaut at
Mechlln. A writer in La Nature thinks
this clock possesses the largest dials
that exist in the world. There are four
Of them, one on each side Of the great
square tower, and their extreme diam
eter is nearly thirty seven and one-half
feet. The figures showing the hours
are nearly six and one-half feet high,
and the hands have length Of nearly
twelve feet.

Gladstone AZ an Orator.

It was a budget last night-about a
page of morning paper spoken in two
hours by Mr.. Gladstone, and he hard
~ referred to a note, never paused a
moment, broke through cheers, dashed
over OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, figures, H.
Illustrations, extracts-all pellmell, with
whirl and fury that took the breath
away. And he did it all with the ut
most ease and got to the end without
turning hair. Mr.. Gladstone took it
all quietly and did it quietly and left
the house and went home quietly,
probably mentioning to Mrs. Gladstone
as reason for being rather tired that
he had been saying "few words"
that evening.-From Whitty's "Parlia-

Thy COncertina.

The threatened revival Of the con-
certina as a serious musical instrument
in England would he return to an
old fashion no doubt, but not to very
old one, since the concertina dates from
the early part Of the last century. Its
invention was an early indiscretion OF
Sir Charles Wheatstone of telegral h
fame, who took out patent for it in
1929, the very year in which some
body in Vienna invented that similar
instrument, the accordion. The concer-
tina was popularized by Sig. Regondi,
who had come before the public as a
Juvenile prodigy with the guitar At
one time no London concert was real
ly complete without him and his con-
certina, and he astounded the Germans
with the music he could get out Of it.

No RHYME For Tipperary.

A poet once jumped to the conclusion
that there was no rhyme to Tipperary
and said so, whereupon an indignant
Irishman, who CHANGED also to be bit
of versifier, pounced upon him and
poked fun at him In lengthy poem,
every other line Of which rhymed or
was supposed to rhyme with the place
In question. Thus:
A bard there was in sad quandary
To ind rhyme for Tipperary.
Long labored he through January,
Yet found no rhyme for Tipperary;
Toiled every day in February,
But toiled in vain for Tipperary;
Searched Hebrew text and commentary,
But searched In vain for Tipperary.
And so on through many scores Of
stanzas, ending up with:
He paced about his aviary,
Burnt In despair his dictionary,
Blew up sky high his secretary,
And then In wrath and anger sware he
There was no rhyme for Tipperary.

webster'a Commitment,

While it is we'll known that Daniel
Webster in speaking Of General Tay
lor's candidacy for the Office Of presi
dent pronounced it "a nomination not
f1t to be made" he never failed to do
Justice to the generals military abil-
tiles and eminent service in the field.
On one occasion he paid the old SOL
der delicate and we'll deserved COM
pliment. General Taylor was CON-
planning of the crowds Of people who
daily besleged him soon after his as.
cession to the presidency.
"They interfere" he said, with my
Official engagements and violate my
domestic retirement, but still l do not
wish to turn my back upon my
friends
"You never did upon your enemies,
general" Mr.. Webster instantly re-
piled.

An Excellent Entertainmen ont.

One of the best entertainments given
at the Willmar opera house this season
was the illustrated lecture on ''The
Wonders of the VEST by Martin E.
lew last Friday evening. A very
large audience greeted the lecturer,
and all were thoroly pleased with both
the lecture and the views. Mr.. Tew is
gifted and eloquent speaker, thoroly
familiar with the subject of his lecture,
and he held the attention of the au-
,dience from beginning to end. After an
Introductory address he took the
audience on a trip thru the Grand
Canon of Arizona, showing some very
beautiful views of the magnificent
scenery of that wonderful place. The
main part of the lecture was devoted to
graphic and thrilling account of the
San Francisco earthquake. This was
wildly Illustrated with a large number
of views taken by Mr.. Tew or under
his direction, showing the terrible
havoc wrought by the upheayal, and
some fine and realistic moving pictures
of the great fire and relief camps.
Then followed an eloquent description
of the wonders of Yosemite Park, with
a number of very beautiful illustra-
tions. The entertainment closed with a.
number of interesting and humorous
moving pictures.
The total receipts were SlS1.O5, of
which S1l7.S5 was door sales, which
Mr.. Crosby said was the best paying
house at the prices charged in the his
tory of the town. The proceeds after
deducting expenses were s153.80.
Half was to go to the Orphans Home.

The SnOb.

The snob cultivates a man or wom-
an not because he expects to get job
or a loan out Of either, but because he
thinks either can help him along into
society's elect. He cuts former &C.
quaintance because the unfortunate
person seems to be Of no use in his
own social advancement. He sup
presses the impulse that may lead him
to dislike useful people and like USE
less ones just as the ambitious bank
clerk suppresses his small extrava-
gances, his fondness for the race track.
Because social position seems so i'm
portant to him he admires excessively
those who have it and snubs those
whose position he deems inferior to his
own.-New York Mail.
