THE MOTHER LOVE.

Honor the dear old mother. Time
has scattered the snowy flakes on her
brow, plowed deep burrows on her
cheek, but is she not beautiful now?
The lips are thin and shrunken, but
these are the lips that have kissed
many a hot tear from the childish
cheeks and the sweetest lips in the
world. The eye is dim, yet is glows
with soft radiance of holy love which
can never fade. All, yes; she is a
dear old mother. The sands Of life
are nearly run out, but, feeble as she
is, she will go farther and reach down
lower for you than anyone else upon
earth. You cannot walk in a midnight
haunt where she cannot see you; you
cannot enter a prison whose bars will
keep her out; you cannot mount q
scaffold too high for her TO reach
mat sne may kiss and bless you N.
evidence of her deathless love. Wien
the world shall despise and forsakc
You, Mnen II leaves you by the way
side to die unnotieed, the dear old
mother will gather you up in her fee
BILE arms and carry you home ard tell
you of all your virtues, until you al
most forget that your soul is disiig
ured by vices. Love her tenderly,
cheer her declining years with tender

That Way?
Feel all out of sorts?
Tired, Blue, Irritable, Nervous?

Bad blood circulating about;
Uric acid poisoning the body.
There's way to feel right again,
Stimulate the sluggish kidneys;

Doan's are recommended by many
Emmett people.
Here's one case.

LIKE MOTHER USED TO MAKE"

A man in Newark, N. j., abandoned
his wife because she could not make
pancakes like those his mother made,
and he returned to the home of his
parents Thereupon the deserted wife
sued her mother-in-law for $4,000
damages, alleging that, with her pan
cakes, she enticed him away.
In court, the wife wept as she told
how she had struggled with those pan
cakes. She had even gone to live
with her mother-in-law three weeks to
try and learn how to make as tooth
some pancakes as hers were.
The husband testified that his wife
was good woman; that the only
thing he had against her was that she
could not make pancakes like those
his mother made, and he could not live
without them.
The jury decided in favor Of the
mother-in-law.
The newspapers Of Newark had a
good deal Of merriment over this law
suit, and none Of them gave any sym
pathy to the wife or serious thought
TO the tragedy that came into her life
because she could not provide pan
cakes ''like mother used to make"
But newspapers are mostly written by
men.
A good many married women in .
Newark, and in every other place, will
feel strongly for this wife who tried
earnestly to please her husband with
her cooking, and failed. They have
been through the same trying expert
ence. A little thing like that has ru-
ined the happiness Of many home.
We remember reading, some years
ago, Of a man who sued his wife for
divorce, and at the trial it developed
that they fell out about doughnuts.
She could not make doughnuts as good
as his mothers. He sent home to his
mother for parcel Of her doughnuts,
70 show his wife how they excelled
hers, and when they came the wife, at
the end Of her patience, tossed them
out Of the window.
The judge who heard the case re-
fused the divorce, declaring that the
wife did exactly right, and he told
the man that husband who cared
more for doughnuts than he did for a
good wife was pretty small potatoes" (
To which every wife will agree.

got there the load of wood was still

times and tied the harness, leaving
