A Valentine Thought.

Nothing is sweeter than Love,
nothing more courageous, nothing
higher nothing wider, nothing more
pleasant, nothing fuller nor better in
heaven and earth. Love feels no
burden, thinks nothing of trouble,
attempts what is above its strength
pleads no excuse of impossibility;
for it thinks all things lawful for it
self and all things possible, 1t is
therefore able to undertake all things
and it completes many things, and
brings them to a conclusion, where
he who does not love faints and lies
down. Love watcheth and sleeping
slumbereth not. Though weary, Love
is not tired; though pressed it is not
straitened; though alarmed, it Is not
confounded, but as a lively flame and
burning torch, it forces its way, and
securely passes through all.
Selected.

its use in all cases Of coming mother

mended for years and years and those
who have used it speak in highest praise
Of the immCnse relief it affords. Partic-
ularly do these knowing mothers speak
Of the absence Of morning sickness,
absence Of strain on the ligaments and
freedom from those many other dis
tresses which are usually looked forward
to with so much concern.
There Is no question but what

Fourth Ward Mothers.

With ninety enthusiastic patrons
in attendance, the people of Ardmore,
to say the least of it, got a new and
broader vision, Friday afternoon at
the jefferson school, of the workings
and results of Ardmore mothers
clubs. The meeting proved what
can be accomplished by absolute
harmony and centered forces. The
Fourth Ward Mothers club could
well be termed a patrons club, there
were twenty men present, but Moth
ers' club carries with it all the force
of patrons club, with just an added
touch of sentiment. Every thought
fostered by the Mothers club is sup
ported heartily by all the patrons,
and thus comes their unusual
strength
Mrs. Ringer made a brief opening
talk, saying in part:
perhaps never before in the his
tory of our nation have we greater
reason to be thankful for the bless
ings that we enjoy than at the pres
ent time And on this occasion, in
memory of the two greatest charac-
ters, George Washington and Abra
ham Lincoln, who were pre- eminent
ly men Of faith and prayer, it is but
fitting that we return thanks to the
great Ruler of all nations."-
Rev. W. F Freeman pronounced the
benediction.
After the children's program, all OF
which deserves special mention, Rev.
c. c. Weith spoke in a most impress
i've manner. His subject: "Our
Heritage from the Father" was
most interesting one. He spoke of
the flag and the principles for which
it stands as emphasized during the
life of the father Of our nation. He
spoke of the convictions of right and
duty that prompted the lives OF
Washington and Lincoln, and how
their loyalty and sacrifice should be
emulated and taught.
Rev. NJ /. Butler spoke next, his
address-one of contrast-was indeed
forcible, The Distinction of a Chris
tian Nation" Among the thoughts
developed we grasped the vivid con-
trast of the status of women, the
progress of sanitation, the public
schools, and religious zeal.
characteristics of the Lives OF
Washington and Lincoln" was re-
sponded to by Prof. c. W. Richards.
Mr.. Richards made one of the most
and responsive talks OF
the afternoon. He spoke OF the ad-
herence of both men to their prin-
ciples and conscientious scruples, /
of their meekness and lowliness, and !
of their deep religious ideals. He
concluded his remarks with a beau |
tiful poetic tribute to Lincoln.
Miss Nichols defined a nation as 4
Webster viewed it, and from a mega
tive viewpoint showed how to per
petuate it. The forces most destruc-

WHITE GIRL FROM TEXAS
REFUSES TO POSE

Chicago, Ill, Oct. 24.-Seventy-
five art students assembled in the
largest studio in the Art Institute
yesterday afternoon.
The model, draped, took her pose
under the direction of Miss Jessie
P Lacey, instructor.
Members of the class had "laid
off their proportions" and started
to sketch in the detail. Miss
Lacey was engaged in assisting a
backward student.
Then the door of the studio OPP
ened and three colored girls walked
in and looked about for seats.
The model, Miss Della Rains,
who recently came to Chicago
from her home in Dallas, Texas,
saw the three as soon as they en-
tered and "dropped' her pose.
Are those Negroes going TO
work in this class?" she asked stu
dents near the stand. "They are
members of the class and | sup
pose they came here to work." was
the reply.
Miss Rains jumped from the pos
ing stand to the floor and left the
room.
Meantime Miss Lacey was ex-
planning the democratic spirit that
should prevail in large art schools
such as that conducted by the Art
Institute
Il was reared to respect the Ne
gro as citizen and | do not hate
them as some Southerners are
supposed to-" said Miss Pains af-
ter the incident II simply be-
lieve they should exercise tact in
selecting the field for her activi-

TAKING ADVANTAGE.

From the numerous advertise
ments of the various merchants in
the city, rare opportunity is of
fered for preparations that are
generally made about this time for
Thanksgiving and Christmas holi-
days. Articles of merchandise,
however costly, can be purchased
on depositing small amounts.
Our people ought to take ad-
vantage of such opportunities as
from keen observation of per
sons who are always on the look
out we lose that which would be
of real benefit to us when we hest
tate. Get in therefore with the
crowd that read our paper and be

GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES

and two patrolmen. The officers
became enraged, it is said, when
the young Negro came the door of
his place and requested the officers
to desist from the use of loud and
profane language, reminding them
that there were ladies inside the
store. AT this the officers, it is
said snatched the young man out
of the door and gave him an uu-
merciful beating with their clubs.
and later they called the patrol
wagon and sent hiu4to the station
house. An Indignation meeting
has been held by the members of
the Park Street M. E. Church, at
which resolutions were passed to
see that the young man gets justice.
The sum of $40 was raised to assist
in the prosecution OF the police
men. A petition has been circu-
lated and signed by over 700 citi-
zens, it is said, demanding the
suspension of the offending officers.
