HONOR THY MOTHER.

Honor thy dear old mother.
Time has scattered the snowy
flakes upon her brow and plowed
deep burrows on her cheek, but
is she not beautiful now? The
lips are thin and shrunk, but
those are the lips that have kiss
ed away many a hot tear from the
childish cheek, and they are the
sweetest lips in the world. The
eye is dim, yet glows with soft
radiance of holy love that can
never fade. Yes, she is a dear
old mother, The sands of time
are nearly run out, but feeble as
she is, she will go farther and
reach down lower for you than
any other on earth. You cannot
walk into midnight where she
cannot see you; you cannot enter
a prison where bars will keep
her out; you cannot mount a
scaffold too high for her to reach
and bless you with deathless
1--we. When the world shall
despise and forsake you, when it
leaves you by the wayside to die
unnoticed, the dear old mother
win gather you in her feeble
old arms and carry you home and
tell you of all your virtues until
you almost forget that your soul
is disfgured by vice. Love her
tenderly and cheer her decliing
years with holy devotion.

Make this town and the coun-
try around it your battle-ground,
and then boom!
If you boom loud enough, peo-
pie will come from afar off to
find out what's up. Then a little
more booming will take them
prisoners and add them to the
population. Then they will be-
gin booming, and other willing
captives will come in.
This is the inside history of
every town on earth that
amounts to anything more than
a hill of beans.
Booming may be done in many
ways. A board Of trade can do
it. A commercial club or bust
ness mems club can do it. You
can do it individually,
If you don't believe in this
town, why do you live here? If
you do believe in it, why don't
you boom it? Every new family
means money in your pocket if
you are in business here or own
property here. If you make
your living by working here,
every increase of population
tends to increase your wages,
every industry brought to town
tends to enlarge your oppor-
tunities for making a good living.
Batteries in a battle boom to-
gether. If only one gun booms
now and then it helps some, but
when they all boom together
something big is going to happen
right off. It's just the same
with town booming. When we
all boom together, the things we
desire to have happen will begin
happening.
Now, suppose you who read
this suggest through the columns
of this paper some method of
massing our boom batteries and
making and make a noise that
viii bring people running into
this town to go into business,
start a factory, or develop some
of our natural resources.

A True Hunting Story.
San Francisco Star.

From the San Francisco Star
 Speaking of congregations, said a traveller, reminds me of the pie bird story of the Breton farmer. There was a farmer in Brittany who wished to tell a visitor how his farm had been over run with pies. Pies, you know. are large birds, black and white, with long tails a kind of crow. The farmer said the pies devastated his fields horribly. If he put up scarcecrows the birds tore them do n. One day his young son ran into the granite farmhouse and shouted:
 oh, father, hundreds of birds. The wheat Is being all eaten upr
 ''The farmer loaded his gun. But where were the shot? None could be found. He put in a few handfuls of tacks instead. Then he ran out The wheat field was black and white like a checkerboard with pies. The farmer gave a loud yell and the birds all flew up into a tall poplar. He fired, and To, every bird was nailed fast to the tree. Their Tapping wings filled the air with a loud whlr. The farmer, amazed stood watching them. Then a strange thing happened. The birds with one grand united effort pulled up the huge tree and flew away with it."

cuba's Forts Are Now Show Places.

Mrs. c. R. Miller in Lesies Weekly.
 The forts of Cuba are interesting from a historic point of view, as well as for the purpose to which they have been put since the establishment of the republic. During the early days of Spanish rule these forts were sometimes called upon to defend the island from foreign n- vasion, and often from pirates, but during the last fifty years they were generally used as prisons for the custody of natives who may have violated the law or incur red the displeasure of the authorities. Today they are mere show places, all though some are occupied by the con stabulary of the island, who are known as the rural guard. These peace officers were organized in 1899, and were chiefly recruited from the ranks of the Cuban army. Many of. these young men are now stationed at forts where their fathers met death in their struggle for liberty

 In Brussels lives a lawyer who recently made good use of a photograph in lawsuit. He had been continually an- noyed by the noises of hammering at an iron foundry in his near neighbhood. Finding that complaints were unaviallng, he brought the matter into court. But before doing so he placed a photograph in his library for one whole day. When the case came before the court he pro- duced the photograph and set going the specially prepared cylinder. An uproar and din as from the forge of Vulcan was the result, and the ingenious lawyer won his case.
