Two Views of Motherhood.

Some years ago, an American
friend and ! were passing through
q street in the city of Tckio," says
Adachi Kinnosuke. I'VE came up
on a gateway which smiled like a
May-day festival, and, like it, was
full of people.
What's all this fuss about?" my
friend asked me- Have they hit a
gold mine?"
No; they had not. To the good
people the occasion meant a a deal
more than the discovery Of gold.
1t was the coming of a baby. The
parents were sending out messen-
gers into the four corners of the
city announcing the glad tidings of
exceeding great JOY And l tod
my American friend:
DO your people make such a fuss
about baby? Babies are born ev-
cry day in this country, aren't
they?"
Which was true. But we look
upon this matter entirely in a diff
ferent way. 1t may be that this
is one of the relics of the past, but
we put emphasis upon the continu-
alton of a family line. CONTIGUOUS,
whose ghost is much more power
full in Japan of today than all the
prophets and philosophers now liv-
ing put together, made childlessness
just ground for divorce, The
coming of the baby means to a
mother more than a fashionable
garment. 1t is the social insignium
with the Japanese mother; moth
ing defines her social rank as final
ly as the baby
The Nippon society is heartless
to the childless mother; it brands
her as the stone-woman;P it ex-
poses her to the calling pity Of all

Washing New Flannels.

1t is surprising how a little care
in washing new flannel lengthens
its life and preserves its appear
ance First of all, put the garment
or piece of flannel into a large tub
filled with cold water, rain water
where Obtainable, but otherwise
with little ammonia added. The
water must be cold; no other meth
cd will extract the sulphur which
is contained in all new hannels.
Steep it for al least two hours.
Have ready tub of hot, not boil
ing, water, add a little soap Jelly
Ooo much soap makes flannel
shiny)and a tablespoonful of am
monia. Put the flannel into this
and rub lightly with the hands,
giving extra sttention to seams,
gathers and thick places. Wash
again through warm water with
smaller quantity of soap jelly in it,
and rinse in tepid water. Pass
twice through the wringer, and hang
out-of-doOrs, if possible, with the
thickest and heaviest part upper
most. This precaution is necessary,
otherwise the water drains into the
yoke, collar or waistband and thick
ems those parts. Fine flannel may
be pressed with a moderately hot
iron on the wrong side, but heavy
garments are usually mangled.-

The following pertinent open
letter has been written Hon. Champ
Clark, by Giles c, McHenry of
Montgomery, Illinois. The letter
was published in the News of that
place; Article 2, of the constitu-
ton reads: The president shall at
stated times receive for his services
a compensation which shall neither
be increased or dimished during the
period for which he shall have been
elected; and he shall not receive
within the period any other emolu-
ment from the United States or
any of them.
i have looked over the amend
ment the constitution and so far as
| can see the above clause is still
in full force and if so want to
know how congress could appropri-
ate $4,000 for Mr.. Taft'S travelling
expenses and $4,000 for automo-
biles? To a layman it looks like
congress had transcribed its au-
thority and that the president, if he
accepts the $4,000 or any part of
it, will not only violate the cOnsti-
tuition but will also violate his oath
OF office | would hate to know
that the chief magistrate of the
greatest government on Gods green
earth was perjurer.
Now, my dear sir, is there no
way to stop this squandering of
the peoples money? Can't the
treasurer be restrained from pay
ing out the money unlawfully?
What are the courts for? What
has become of Mr.. Taft's favorite
remedy by injunction? Is it only
for the common people, and are
those in high life immune? If the
constitution is to be trampled under
foot what was the use in sacrifc-
ing a million lives and the best
blood that ever coursed through hui
man veins to save the union? L
write to you because you are the
leader of the forlorn hope of this
government"

Sorrow is the teacher Of sym

There are no saints without
service.
Most remOrse comes fom despis-
ing rebuke.
The good lives are always look
ing to better ones.
Burning thoughts never come
from hot heads.
Nothing feels the lack Of eXeE-
else quicker than piety.
He who fears to BE- called a cow
ard is sure to be a fool.
The holiness that seems to hurt
you cannot help the world.
Religion is our attempt to dis
cover the meaning of life.
He has a share in a good deed
who cheers another on to it.
Temptation may be good diScip-

No one dies from spiritual indi-

The larger the heart the more it
feels the power of little hands.

heart is to nurse an envious mind

Texas is said to have selected its
Lone Star" emblem through a
mere accident. A half century or
so ago mems overc0ats were orna-
mented with large brass buttons.
1t happened that the buttons on
the OvercOat of Governor Smith of
Texas had the impress of the five
pointed star For want of a seal
one of these buttons was cut off and
used. The owner of this overcoat
and of the button, Henry Smith,
was chief executive of the provis-
ional government of Texas which,
in 1885, preceded the declaration of
Independence by Texas against
Mexico and the winning of that in
dependence in the battle of San
Jacinto on April Il, 1885. Elk.
