all her society manner and fine dresses,
whose white ieweled hands never felt
the clasp OF baby fingers, but dear
old.fashioned mother with sweet
voice. eyes into whose clear depth the
love light shown, and brown hair,
just threaded with silver, lying upon
her faded cheek Those dear hands,
worn with toll, gently guided our steps
in childhood, and smoothed our cheek
in sickness, ever reaching out to as in
yearning tenderness. Blessed is the
memory of an old fashioned mother
IL floats to us like the beautiful per-

music of other voices may he lost. but
the enchanting memory of her will
echo in our soul forever

USUALLY such a man believes
~ in being his own janitor, err
rand boy, clerk and general man
ager. He lives in terror OF a pay
roll, and the expense ofeXpansion

A man of this type is just as big
today as he will be 20 years from

and unlimited prosperity. He is
carrying a portion of the same
stock that he had five years ago,
and unless he happens to have
call for these articles, he will hold
them on his shelves indefinitely
