There Is His Mother, the
Being Most Sacred in
His Eyes.

But there is his mother-his old
mother-the being above all others
sacred in his eyes; the one who
went down into the Valley of the
Shadow to bring him into life; the
one who nursed him through his
helpless infancy; who has cher
ished his every step through life,
and whose sacrifices for him have
been uncounted.
He remembers the long nights
she sat patiently by hts sick bed;
the times she went shabby that he
might have new clothes to look as
well as his schoolmates; the stTiv-
ing and seaf f-deniaI by which she
put him through college.
All that he is Of good, all that he
ever hopes TO be. he owes 90 his
mother. and he never looks at her
work-knotted old hands without
wanting to 60 down on his knees
and kiss them In gratitude. And
now his wife demands that he shall
repay that debt by turning the old
woman out of his house.
How can he decide against his
mother7 Wife and mother! These
are the two women In the world
the man loves best, the ones TO
whom he has most tried to do his
duty, and between them they are
crucifying him. They tear his
very soul in twain. They slay his
happiness, and he is helpless.
It is a tragic situation, gro
tesquely tragic. because both
women love the man they torture.
They would do anything else on
earth for him except to sink their
petty spite and jealousy and try to
get along together.
They would make any sacrifice
for MIN except TO give up the
pleasure OF nageins at each other,

For in her heart every wife

knows that she is wrecking hef

Of the wrangling in-laws that turn

In this picture the artist has
seized upon the moment In which
the long-drawn-out quarrels be-

and the wife has told her husband
that he must choose between her
and his mother, and that one or

How shall a man decide.
He loves his wife devotedly. She
is the one woman in all the world
he picked out to be his companion

loves him. She has been good, and

the mother Of his children, and he

NOT APPROVED BY ARMY MEN
Ambassador Wilson's Effort to Stop
Hostilities In Mexico.

Washington, Feb. 14.-Ambassador
Wilson's overnight dispatches were
laid before President Taft immediate
ly upon his return from Philadelphia.
They contained principally an account
of the most disquieting feature of
the fighting in Mexico City-the kill
ing OF two American m
Administration officials look with
much apprehension upon the effect of
the killing of two Americans and one
of the first results of the incident was
an order o Ambassador Wilson to
warn all Americans out of the danger
zone.
Ambassador Wilson's course so far
has the unqualified approval of the
administration, though some of the
army officers question his attempt to
stop hostilities. Admitting that his
aim was to protect lives and property
of Americans and other foreigners,
they beliel there will be less blood
shed and r speedier termination of
the rebellion If the combatants are
allowed to fight 1t out with no inter
ference.

BULGARIAN GIRLS
Appeal to American Children
for Contributions for
Orphans

Washington, Feb. 14.-MaGame
Bakhmetief, wife of the Russian am
bassador, has received a letter from
the two young princesses of Bulgaria,
Princesses Eudoxic and Nadejda, only
daughters of King Ferdinand. of Bull
garia. enclosing an autograph COM
munication from their royal highnesses
addressed to THE dear children of
the United States of America"
The young princesses, aged 10 and
Ia years, respectively, were left
motherless at the death Of Queen
Marie Louie, of Bulgaria, some years
ago. The communication is sent from
the royal palace at Sofia aud speaks Of
the great sacrifice of human life during
the Buikan conflict, which they say
has robbed many thousands of poor
innocent children and babies of their
fathers.
With characteristic fervor the young
princesses' no:e said: ''Thnik how the
babies will miss their daddy whose
ieturn from work each day they so
eagerly looked forward to; think how
they will miss his fond 'gooG night
or long for his morning greeting;
think how sad will be their Sundays
and holidays with no daddy to play
with them or take them for walks,
aud when you hive so thought, turn to
your own happy lives and think if you
would not be still more happy by
making some little sacrifice your
selves TO help them"
The princesses state that any help
given to them, however small, will be
used to succor the orphans of the war,
and that they will send those who
help them their portrait with their
thanks.
Madame Bakhmetieff has consented
to act as intermediary for those who
wish to answer the communication of
the young princesses.

THE GAME BILL
Considerable Jockeying in the
Matter of Game Pro-
lection

Pierre, Feb. IA. The persons inter
ested in extending and charging the
privileges of the "game protection
department came very close to getting
a law they did not want when the
measure was acted upon in the house.
After knocking out provisions here
and inserting provisions there the
house members had patched up a bill
that was particularly offensive to the
fish and game committee, which had
submitted it. In spite of the fact
that the original promoters of the
measure repudiated the amended
structure, the bill came very close to
passing, going down to defeat by the
close score of As to A.
Among amendments attached TO the
bill on the floor was the elimination
OF the use of dogs in hunting, close
restriction as TO the number of game
wardens allowed and-worst of all
the striking out of the section allowing
of an appropriation to carry out the
work of the department.
AS one member stated, it seemed
quite apparent that the bill was drawn
with a view of preventing future ac-
cumulations in the fund, as it con.
tanned unrestricted privileges as to
field and Office assistance. If the bill
had passed in the form presented the
department would have been empowered
to use up the accumulated surplus of
$40. 900, in addition to avoiding such
future embarrassment.
