at the mercy of rival coteries of self
appointed political bosses. The bill
is the farthest possible removed from
anything like legitimate direct pri-
mary and would serve to perpetuate
all OF the evils of the caucus and con-
vention system and engraft upon
them the inequalities of the New
England rotten borough system by
which minority of the voters could
always control state legislation.

lates that she was working in a
big city house, when a letter
brought her totally unexpected
news of her mothers death at the
old home.
Bursting into tears. the girl fled
upstairs to her room and shut
herself in. In moment or two
her mistress wanted her. and
went to find her. Opening the
door, she demanded:
What are you crying for?
MY mothers dead in Sweden,
ma'am; I just got the letter. re-
piled the young woman between
sobs.
The mistress of the house re-
garded the maid colby for a mo-
ment, and then said:
well, you had better get down
to your work: crying up here
won't bring her back"
And that was all. The slightest
word of sympathy at that mo-
ment would have made the owed-
ish girl that woman's slave. AS
it is, the woman will always be
remembered in the girls heart
with an aversion which only her
simple Christianity can modify.

The Love of a Mother.

Sxs
An English writer has paid this
tribute to the mother-love which
goes SO far to interpret the lesson
of Christ on love:
Yesterday afternoon, as the
SUN went down, | sat beside the
bedside watching the wan face OF
a wife and mother who had pre-
maturely worn out her life in toll
for her husband and children. and
was even then most absorbed in
certain tender parting charges
concerning them when she should
no longer be able to care for them.
She wouldna be there said the
stalwart but deeply grieved hus-
band, but for slavin' and slavin'
for US. This was an instance OF
glorious self-sacrihce. In the an
nails of womanhood there are
many such. And whatever we
may think about its justice or ex-
pediency, there is something in
us which endears to us the person
who has obeyed the sacred law,
and our pulse beats quicker at a
thing which puts fresh honor upon
our community"
And Robert ]. Burdette, in the
Sunday School Times, wrote this
message that must go straight to
the heart of every reader:
A Picture Of Mother.
| have known many women who
have brought the picture of the
Christ into my thought as l noted
their daily work. Smiling over
the humblest service. That's
mother. Cheerfully doing the
things of which the rest of us
have said: you catch me!'
That's mother. After the long,
long days work-fve or six or
seven hours over union time
girding herself and kneeling to
wash the feet of guests that were
unworthy to cross the threshold
of her sweet home. That's

PRACTICALLY all cm-
- broidery used on infants
dress apparel is of the
most fragile sort. particu-
larlv eyelet Openwork gives a
touch of delicacy which 10
amount OF fine tracery stitches
will impart TO a fine fabric. For
this reason the pattern given to-
day is an especially good one. l.
has the adaptabilitv to eyelet \
part or all NAV be used. as il is
easily eliminated when all parts
are not desired.
Embroider the pattern before
cutting out the dress. Use the
regulation embroidery needle
having the long eve. and single
thread. Do not place knots in the
thread. All stems should be work
ed i'll outline and the neck out
line in buttonhole stitches. Have
bar of dry soap to place back OF
the goods TO puncture round eve
lets. Where there i an irregular
leaf or petal, it is best to cut an
N-shaped incision i'll them to pre-
serve the shape OF the true out
lines. otherwise all long petals
will resemble the round parts.
The pattern could be produced
in part eyclet and satin stitch. the
latter 10 delineate the leaves. but
heavy embroidery is not a dainty
touch for the infants dress. and
simplicity should be the object in
every effort. Use finest batiste or
nainsook for the garments.
To Transfer This Design.
DUT a cake of soap laundry
! will do in a pint of hot
water, stir vigorously and re-
move the soap. Saturate this de-
sign with the soap and water
mixture, then remove the excess
moisture by partially drying the
saturated design or by applying
a sheet of blotting paper. Place
the material or fabric to which
the design is to be transferred on
a hard, fiat surface, and lay the
design face down upon the mate
rial. Cover with dry sheet OF
thick paper or two TO- of news
paper, and with the bowl of a
tablespoon rub, pressing hard,
until the design is entirely trans
ferred, being careful to rub from
rather than toward you.
When rubbing you can see
if enough pressure is being ap-
piled by lifting the corner of the
design, to note how veil it is
taking. Do not wet the ma
terial nor rub the face of the de-
sign with damp fingers. To re-
move the design lines after the
article is completed, wash in warm
water with soap. The entire
process is very simple, and with a
little care you can easily make
perfect transfers to any kind OF
goods.
