Mother Crown Jewel in
Scheme Of Christianity
Behind Every Great Man, Back of Every Noble Achievement
and Lurking in the Background of Everything Worth
While, Minister Says, Is a Woman.
BY. THE REV. HENRY MERLE mELLEN.

fnHV HE divine in life stands forth in motherhood.
The crown jewel in the scheme of Christian
- ity is the Christian mother. The maternal in
stinct. whether 1t be exhibited in low brute creations
or whether 1t be expressed in the personality of a hu-
man mother. is beautiful to behold. 1t is the preserVa-
five of all forms OF life. But its spiritual beauty re-
eeiyes it's finest expression in the personality of the
Christian mother.
A mother fish lays her spawn. You cannot chase
her from her eggs. but 1t viii! not be long when she VIII
forsake her fry 10 shift for itself or to be gobbed up.
But the mother instinct Is there.
You can find a bears haunts and in the absence OF
the mother steal one of her cubs. But when that old
mother bear comes back and finds her cub missing she
will track you over the mountains for days, and when
meet IT will be either yours or her life that will
nav tbe price. This is crude savage motherhood.
But the sweetest and most beautiful definition or
the divine in a m other is given in the evangelists
words describing the mother of Jesus: But Mary kept
