The greatest mother in the world
perhaps, Is Mrs. Jane Morris. re-
siding In Jackson county, near the
foothills of the Cumberland mountains
in Kentucky. Mrs. Morris was born
and reared in the mountains, has little
education and until few years ago
had never been outside of her immedi-
ate vicinity.
Her claim to greatness lies in the
jact that she can boast of total OF
lis descendants, nearly all of whom
are living and none of whom ever has
been accused Of crime.
my life's motto has been," said the
venerable old mother the other day,
"the Golden Rule. The duty of a wife
Is to her home and her country, to

There is no more picturesque cele-
bration at sea than the ancient cere-
mony of crossing the equator. For
centuries no ship, big or little, has
crossed the line" without paying
honor to Neptune, however crudely.
OF late years these ceremonies are
often deliberately staged. The sensa-.
ton of crossing the equator is unfa-
miliar even to the most experienced
travellers. Passenger traffic moves
around the world along parallel lines,
and while 10000 voyagers cross the
Atlantic ocean, few sail from the
north to south Atlantic, thus carrying
them across the equator.
Only last year the first large party
Of tourists crossed the line" Incl
dental to a trip from the United
States to South America. The party
consisted of $50 Americans and the
celebration OF the crossing, the first
participated in by so many pleasure
seekers in the history of passenger
traffic, surpassed all precedent. Be-
fore sailing from New York, the
Bluecher was equipped with all the

SAVED BY BIRDS DEATH SONG

A canary birds death song saved
the lives Of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Etero
at Stamford Conn. the other night,
when gas thrown off by coal fire in
the kitchen range was suffocating the
sleeping couple.
About one in the morning, just be-
fore the bird became lifeless, it burst
forth into song. Weak and quavering
enough it was, but still sufficiently
loud to awaken Mr.. Etero. He arose
with Il sense of suffocation and nau-
sea. He fell, but regained his feet,
with an effort, staggered to a window
and called for help. Then he COL
lapsed. The neighbors heard the cry
and hurried to the apartment. A
musician who was summoned said the
Eteros had had close call.

material required for Suggesting the
celebration. The initiation of the en-
tire ships company followed. When
the ceremonies were at an end, each
was presented with an elaborate
document stating that the owner had
paid his respects to Neptune in prop
er form, and that hereafter, according
to the proverbial custom of the seas,
he would be permitted to cross the
line without further initiation.
On the morning the Bluecher
neared the equator. Neptune and his
court, deliberately costumed, took
their places on an improvised throne
on the upper deck. One by one the
luckless tourists were tremendously
taken before the king who judged
the case and announced the penalty.
The prisoner was sentenced to re-
ceive either hair cut, bath or a
shave, or all three. Escape was i'm
possible Those who attempted to
dodge the Judge by hiding were
sought out by four DraWny police
men" Even the women were initiated,
but more mildly.

SPIRIT HAND SAVED DIVINE

A remarkable spiritualistic expert
ence was recently related by the vicar
of Fosdyke, preaching at Bolton. He
said: "A friend of mine who is
clergyman had occasion to drive down
lonely mountain side, and the night
was pitch dark. He could scarcely
see, and when he came to bad part
Of the road he distinctly felt a hand
that took the horses rein, and drew
it to one side of the road. He went
on a few yards, and the rein became
loose The next day when he came
back he found a tree had fallen over
that spot, and If he had gone on he
would have been dashed down a pre-
cipice to certain DEATH"
