The gleeful laugh of happy children is
the best home music. and their graceful
figures the best statuary. We are all
kings and queens in the cradle and each
baby is a new marvel; new miracle.
The unaffected lamentations when he
lifts up his voice on high, or more beau
tilul, the sobbng child-the face all liquid
grief as he tries to swallow his vexa
tion-so'tens all hearts to pity, and to
mirthiul and clamorous compassion. The
small despot asks so little that all reason
and all nature is sure to be on his side
His ignorance is far more charming than
all knowledge, and his little sins more
bewitching than virtue. His flesh is an
gels flesh, all alive.

MOTHER.

There is one form sacred in memory's
gallery, and one face that time can never
erase. 1t is that of our mother the dear,
gentle compassionate mother who loved
us ere we knew what love was, and
taught us the right ere we knew the
wrong. She sang us to sleep in the inno-
cence of childhood and awoke us with
loving Kisses on the bright mornings OF
long ago. Her eyes beamed with JOY as
she blessed us at lfe's dawning and
spoke tender farewell, as life's sun
went down. She watched us to school
IN the summer sun and taught us our les
sons by the wintry fireside. From child
hoods morn 10 manhood's hour, she
was ever at hand TO soothe and console
us, and at last when we must go
forth from the old home and firesde,
how tenderIy and atfectionately she ca
ressed us aud kissed us good bye-then
waited and hoped and prayed that all
would be well. From first to last her
love was the same-it knew no
bounds. With cheers for the right, tears
for the wrong, she was happy in our
joys, sad in our sorrows, as she
washed away our errors IN the flooded
rivulets OF the soul Her conscience was
her guide and her family her greatest
JOY She loved. her home more than
glittering fashions and sought honor in
the consciousness Of doing good.
Mid Affections, trials and suffering
years she lived for a purpose-that we
might succeed We loved her as We
loved no other and pleasant memories
cluster around her peaceful grave. She

S215, ,O85 Increase in City Tax
Basis.

Frederick's Board of Intermediate As.
SCISSORS, on Saturday night, June 27th,
completed its work and turned over to
City Register Nicodemus total of $2I5,-
oS565 in new aSsessable property for
Frederick City. This is one of the
greatest gains in years. but it must not
be taken as the net increase of the basis
this year. City Register, Mr.. Bradley T.
Nicodemus, reported that from this
amount will have to be deducted the
amount of property, which has been re-
ported as disposed of during the year.
Again the Board of Aldermen will sit
as members of the Board of Control and
Review for five nights, or as long as nee
essary, beginning on January I3th. This
Board may revalue much property in the
city, as under recent act of the Legisla-
ture it has the right, and some members
of the Board of Assessors are known to
be favorable to making revaluations.
The gains by the intermediate asses.

day afternoon, June goth, when the
Board OF County Commissioners fixed
the tax rate at SI.Io on the $Ioo, which
will raise for Frederick county the sum
of $40, $500, which will be sufficient. it
is believed, to assume the entire floating
Indebtedness of the county This year
the county will pay more than SOS, 900
into the State Treasury.
County Treasurer Cramer will handle
in State and county taxes, $56I, 356.
Upon county taxes he receives a com
mission of three fourths Of one per cent,
and on the State taxes one per cent.
With the exception of 1910 when the

COURTESY IN THE HOME.

1t is to be regretted that individual cour-
tesy in the household is at so low an ebb.
We treat our guests with favor and be-
stow upon them every mark OF polite at
tention; but the minute that they are out
OF the house we slip back into the old
ruts, and treat those about us with al in
difference that borders on contempt. Not
that this is intentional; rather it is the re-
suit Of carelessness, -and failure to rea-
lie that the polite attentions, the little
things" count so much to those that we
love as to some outsider who becomes a
member of the family for only day.
If one would be a successful host one
should be a successful parent or brother
or sister, and courtesy is an inevitable
requisite in both cases. The home life is
a training for the larger life in which we
meet other men and discuss other inter
ests. If at home we learn to say thank
you." and mean ii we will not forget to
say it to others at the proper time,
