tional-even international or world
wide observation. The suggestion was
originally made by Miss Anna Jarvis Of
Philadelphia, and the day was quite
widely marked, three years ago. by the
wearing Of white carnations. For this
is the chosen emblem, and surely no
flower could more perfectly represent
motherhood; it is so white. SO lasting.
so fragrant, in every way so symbolic
Of purity, faithfulness aud love. Last
year the outward observance was mu CHI
more general. and tits hoped that the
heart of many a mother was ~gladdened

that she was not forgotten by the son
