A club composed of ten girls from the

orders were taken for all articles for doll

UNSELFISH MOTHER
CAN SMOOTH PATHS
There Is Way She Can Make

By DOROTHY DIX
Ear JOINS MOTHER:


Every woman who is the
mother Of son goes through
two Cethsemanes-once vher
she brings a u.an-child into the world
and again when she gives him 10 an
other woman
" hen your son was married, you sat
In the flOwer-betlecked church, blinking
back your tears, with the desOlation
Of death in your heart 1t seemed 10
you that YOU could not have a greater
sense Of loss II the burial service, in
stead Of the marriage service, was be-
Ing said above your boy, for YOU knew
that after marriage no mothers son Is
her SON. He : the husband Of his wife,
and the other woman always stands
between them.
Every wO.na knows that II Is best
for mas' TO marry, that il is best in
every way g. him 10 have home, and
wife, and chi dren of his own, and vet
II mothers had TIE say-sO, nine hundred
and ninety-nine out Of a thousand
would be old bachelors
This is a selfish view to take Of the
subject, and where your boy Is con-
cerned, YOU should be capable OF ris-
ing above seIfshness- Believe me, that
never again In your life viii you have
such an opportunity OF sacrificing your

keep your son is 10 add your daughter

Of your own people
Don't live with your son after he IS
married if there Is any possible way
TO prevent IT. There Is an old saying
that the largest house ever built was
not big enough to hold two women
This is an unchanging truth No two

the country. Every year about 10
per cent of those who die in New
York have pauper burial. New York
city alone spends $35,o00,000 a year
in charity. -
There are over 100000 paupers
exclusive Of casual paupers) in the
United Kingdom. Fifty million dol
lars is spent in London alone for
the poverty-stricken. Thirty per cent
of the people are below the poverty
line,'' making altogether about 1,50O,-
900 in this one city whose condition
is such as to require assistance Of
many kinds. It is needless to say
that thousands of deaths are directly
due to the long continued underfeed-
ing and exposure, and of these the
young children suffer most. The late
Sir Henry Campbell stated that there
are 100000 people in the British
Isles who are in this deplorable con-
dition. In addition to these there
are over 100000 persons who actu-
ally receive public relief in the
course. of one year In London. in
1904. one person In every three died
in the work house, hospital or lunatic
asylum. The bread lines in our great
cities are Z not composed exclusively
of tramDs and vagabonds. There are
large numbers of bona, f1de working
men in these lines. who are out: of
jobs, and who, ia many cases, have
come to the city ftorr the purpose Of
finding work. No artificial method Of
supplying jobs for these men will
suffice. We must find a. normal sys-
tenn which will permit men to live
with their families and build up their
homes. The farm colony'is a. failure,
so far as city men are concerned.
Perhaps its worst effect is the sin
stitutionalizing'' of the .workingman.
The average man cannot survive this
ordeal.
While large. numbers of the poor
are dependent upon charity-and it
would be disastrous in some cases If
this charity were withheld-the ave-
rage workingman does not want
charity. He wants Justice and he
wants work. The Charity! Organiza-
ton society Of New York says that
from 43 to. 81 per cent Iofc the appI-
cants coming to j.. this organization

These were the wants of yesterday;

may assume new forms, but the issue

OF coming in on private right or way.
This would give the city control over

could be made to pay it's proportionate
share OF the new street pavement The
same is true of the proposed extension
of Calumet avenue The Northwest
ern Traction company. which already

on the public highway instead of on

q matter to be taken up by the street
