THE RIGHT KIND OF MOTHER
 LOVE

Popular songs get close @ popular truths. They express the normal sent imeut. When you find what the pub hc likes. you get pretty near to what the public is.
 Sometimes these songs don't go far enough. "A boys best friend is his mother" She's always that. She can be more. She can be better than ap entire flock of friends. But one cannot make a song about such q complex proposition Let's tell then cf the friendship of Mrs Edward B. Crow. instead of trying to set it to music for Serio-comic yocaliSts of the vaudeville stage to warble.
 Mrs. Crow is Ptttsburg woman of wealth and she has a Pittsburg son. It's hard to tar a whole city with this brush. but nevertheless the record stands. What the sire Of the Smoky City has sweat and schemed for. tOo often slips like water. and dirty water at that. through the fin gers of his boys.
 Young Addison Lyle Crow is of that sort. He has S4O,OOO a year. When he's thirty. he will have a mil. lion. His great delight has been to ill his pockets with greenbacks, dis. appear from home, and make the tai hot with whttelight expenditures every place he struck
 Eleven months ago he left Cincin- atd and nothing was heard from him until day or so ago. when he sent pitiful appeal 10 his mother to get Jim released from the navy, where h i serving as common sailor. She refused Co take one step in the matte He's had his fling too many times, she said Let him rough it now. It will do him no harm.
 A wise head, as we'll as a warm heart. were behind these words. If more parents were simply spartan, the wild oat crop would be smaller and harvested less often. The foolish young man flourisheS through indul gence. He Is enriched by too much parental coddrng. His escapades are pardoned until they grow so big that even the law will not condone them.
 What the young man with more money than brains should get is strict justice. And plenty of it. If elects to be a rake, Spendthrift and general wastrel. let him pay the price for 1t. He should be taught though. that a firm backbone is just a. necessary as fat bank account; that the world has no love for a welcher or a Quitter. If he loses the game let him shove his chips over without whimpering.
 These Candy Kids" have too often never felt the natural penalty of their misconduct, but Mrs. Crow is determined her son shall have such regenerating education. Let's hope he IS good enough at heart to repay her the agony of her action. That, and the esteem of the world which cannot over praise her, are the only balm she can get for the wrench 1t must give her mother heart.-Cleve- land leader.

NO STAR TO GUIDE.
The Possibility That Escaped the wo-
men Of Bethlehem.

The child born in the stable of
Bethlehem, because there was no
room for them in the inn," was her
aled by angels to the shepherds and
by star-'to the wise men; but no
voice told the mothers of Bethlehem
of the wonder which was happening
in their town that night.
Suppose some gentle woman had
met Joseph and Mary on that Won
derful Day. as they entered the town,
and had said to them: "Our streets
are full of homeless strans ers Come
you and abide with mel" By that
simple act of hospitality, her name
would have been written high, high
among the names of earth's happiest
folk. Blessed is she," we should
have cried, 'to whose home the
Christmas joy first camel" But the
women of the Judean town did not
know to throw wide their doors and
bring in the worlds gratitude and
love, says the Youths Companion.
So the Child was laid in manger,
and oblivation holds the names of all
the women in Bethlehem who slept
that night beneatht he wings of Won
dering angels. Had they but known!
Year by year, for 19 centuries the
story of the night at Bethlehem has
been told and retold. To-day no
household in Christendom, in town
or village or on distant prairie can
plead the ignorance in which Bethle-
hem then lay. If the door is shut on
the Christ-child to-day, it is not from
lack of knowledge, but from churl-
ishness or Indifference.
The Christmas spirit speaks in
many voices. The sprig of holly or
the plum pudding, the tree laden
with gifts or the cheer for the lone
ly-these are all the worlds way of
saying to the Mother and the Holy
Child, Abide with u.s."
Barred out alike from cottage and
palace and inn in Palestine, the Hope
of the World renews his appeal each
Christmas-tide to our modern Chris
tian world. Bv the very pathos OF
the first Christmas, the heart is sof-
tened and prepared to give him well
come. To-day there is no heraldine
angel or guiding star.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive Him
still,
The dear Christ enters in.

The Frying Pan.

For several years there has been
war waged against the frying pan as
the cause of all diseases of body and
cantankerous conditions of mind pre-
valent amongst the sons OF men.
From the time when the first frying
pan was brought from Virginia by
the first settlers of this country up
to a recent date, there was no appen-
dicitis, no pellagra, no nervous going
to pieces, no sallow, gruntlng dys-
peptics going around in miserable
condition.
1t was men fed from the frying
pan that fought at Kings Mountain,
Cowpens and Yorktown. The Pres
idents that did things in the first
half century of the country's history
took their game. pork, beef and fish
as they came hot and juicy from the
frying pan. Shall the country give
up fried chicken, fried fish, light
puffy fritters and melting pancakes,
lust because few people, who never
saw a real frying pan, are preaching
against it?-Spartanburg Journal.

Didn't Know What He Had.

There are a great many people
in the world who do not appreciate
what they have but are always look
ing for something they deem better
that belongs to somebody else.
Things far away attract them but
they have no eyes for the beautiful
already in their possession. This
was never better illustrated than in
the following item in the last issue
of the Burnesville (Yancey county,
Eagle.
"A friend came into our office the
other day and asked US to write an
advertisement for him for the sale
of his farm. When we read the no.
tice to him he said: Read that a.
gain" After a second reading he
said, Il believe I'll not sell; I've
been looking for a place like that all
my life and didn't know until now
that | already had it"
We already have most of the bless,
ings of life that-are good for us, OF
we need only to stretch out our
hands and reach them, but our eyes
are so strained to catch the vision OF
some far-of object that we lose the
blessing that is at hand. The lessor
