Mrs. King died had come to the King
home to act as housekeeper and COM
I'M, zion, and mentor Of Florence From
the first size had antagonized the girl,
Her waspish ways, her assumption Of
authority, her spylike actions bad
chilled the warm-hearted young girl
and then had created dislike.
When Mr.. King was called away on
business to South America, he had told
Florence that he left her in charge Of
Miss Wall, and, knowing her high tenn
per, asked her to be indulgent and re-
spectful to Miss Wall
: "Fact is, Flossie," he acknowledged,
'"I fancy I made a mistake in bringing
her here, but I can't get rid Of her all
at once. When I return we will make
q change. Be tolerant and dutiful IN

unfortunate that they had become en-
gagged while Mr.. King was away, for
the latter liked young Ward and he
had never discussed nor cenSured his
attentions to Florence. Miss Wall had
taken it upon herself to refuse to sane

peremptOrily she had ordered Neal
from the house. Just as insistently
she had forbidden Florence to meet
him or speak to him. Then Miss Wall
had cut off those charming little par.
ties of Florence's with her friends.
And the last fell blow was a refusal
alone, she always accompanying her.
Florence had rebelled. She had hOr-
rified the old maid by kissing her hand
to Neal when he passed the house. She
smuggled all kinds of notes to her
lover and received many in return.

looked prettier and more vivacious
than ever as she faced her prim,
straight-laced aunt with flushed cheeks
and flashing eyes.

At the Front.
| Dear Aunt and All:
Please don't worry about the shells
or bullets. I guess by the narrow
| squeaks I've had, that Fritz doesn't
want me, he's just trying to scare me.
But he won't get much chance, for
when he begins to send the big ones
over to spoil the scenery, Pm going
to be "dugout rat" until it's over.
I And still the daily hunts go on.
| This has several names, DAILY hunt"
"Cootie Raid" Reading the Shirt"
etc. The hunts most always prove
more or less successful, but although
the "cooties" feel very, very plentiful
at night, they are we'll camouflaged in
the day and many of them elude the
valiant hunters. But their numbers,
in my case, are slowly diminishing
and it is hoped that when we next go
back to rest, they can be exterminat-
ed.
Let me tell you the boys over here
feel proud of the way the folks back
at home are sacrificing that we may
have more and we can say, swell, no
one has got anything on our folks
when it comes to doing their bit. Glad
you have the electric lights and can
imagine how much easier and handler
it makes things for you. Gee, some
times it seems as though I'd give
anything. to get out of this land of
darkness" as it might be called,
where every move must be done in
darkness and where sometimes
light of any kind means death, back
to where the lights can shine every
where and on everything and one can
go about freely anytime and if you
can't see "take a light" But never
mind, we'll soon fix it so it will be
that way everywhere.

WHAT CATARRR IS

Science has shown thatnasal catarrh
often indicates general weakness of
the body and local treatments in the
form of snufs and vapors only irritate
and do little if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat
its cause by enriching your blood with
the oil,food in SCOTS Emulsion which
is medicinal food and a building

MOTHERS DAY DEARER
this YEAR THAN EVER
Churches of Cambridge Preparing
Services to do Honor to The Moth
ers of The Land.

Tomorrow, the second Sunday in
May, is Mothers Day.
In honor of the best mother thai
ever lived-your mother" was one
of the slogans under which the cele.
bration of this day was inaugurated
| by Miss Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia
several years ago. The object, to
bring worldwide recognition of a
specified day as one for universal
emphasis of the love men and women
owe to good mother, has been ac-
corded response from practically
every civilized nation.
But this year Mothers Day is to
have significance even deeper than
formerly. With the assistance OF
military and naval authorities in the
United States, with the country's
ships at sea and commanding her
troops abroad, and with the aid of
the Red Cross and Young Mems
Christian Association officials, the
day is to be one for an interchange
of greetings between mothers at
home and their boys with the colors.
BY men in foreign service, it is
hoped, the day will be partly devot-
ed to letter writing. Congress has
made the day a national flag day.
Secretaries Baker and Daniels and
General Pershing have endorsed the
innovation to be introduced this year
on the theory that nothing so stimu-
lates the morals of fighting men as
letters from home.
Honoring mothers or their mem
DRY through some distinct act of
kindness visit, a letter, or the
wearing of a white carnation-are
the marks of Mothers Day obser-
vance which have been widely adop-
ted in North and South America, Eng
land, Europe and in Australia.
The white carnation has been rec
ognized as the special flower for Mo-
theirs Day. It's whiteness is held
symbolic of purity; it's form, beauty;
its fragrance, love; it's wide field of
growth, charity; its lasting qualities,
faithfulness-the embodiment of the
virtues of Motherhood.
In her annual announcement of
the day, Miss Jarvis says: 'It is not
vokes a renewal of allegiance of our
highest ideals of womanhood and
will contribute to the sanctity of
home and motherhood and the siren
gthening of domestic and national
integrity"
Observance of the day is urged in
schools, colleges, churches, fraternal
societies, orphanages and prisons. In
recent years, Mayors of many cities
and towns throughout the United
States have issued proclamations call
ing for general observance of the
day.
