There is perhaps no place where
courage is more needed than in the
home life by the tired housewife and
busy mother. Her daily work is but a
repetition of many yesterday. No
one fills place of greater responsible,
ity, nor one more worthy of the high
est honors, than the wise and faithful
mother and housekeeper, who loves
her work ana acts on the principle
that sit is not what we do but how,
that makes us great" Her example
is worthy of imitation by the noblest
Of earth. There is nothing more beau
tiful in life than the brave spirit who
thus lovingly performs her part of the
labors OF earth, asking no greater re-
ward than the consciousness of having
done her duty well and led her house
hold to Christ. Priceless, indeed, must
be the peace that stills her heart in
the hour of death, and endless rest
awaits the tired hands when life is
done.
Beautiful hands are those that do
Work that is earnest, and brave and
true
Moment by moment the long day
through.
Beautiful twilight at set of sun,
Beautiful goal with race well run,
Beautiful rest with work well done.
Beautiful grave where grasses creep,
When brown leaves fall and drifts
lie deep,
Over worn.out hands-Oh, beautiful
sleep"

American Proves Grit.

When an American is told that any
thing is impossible his impulse is to
try to do 1t without delay. For this
reason no one Will be astonished,
though everyone will be interested, In
the story of member of the Ameri-
can Aviation corps in France who was
disciplined by having his machine ta-
ken away from him temporarily be-
cause he had used 1t in looping the
loop--a dangerous evolution, on ac-
count of it's peril forbidden to be at
tempted in this machine. While, swell
up in the blue" the aviator had start
ed to perform the feat and made five
graceful loops In descending to the
ground. His commanding officer clos
ed his reprimand by asking, why did
you do tn" and the aviator replied, "A
Frenchman told me it could not be
DONE" 1t was not unnatural that this
explanation made a favorable impress
sion on the officer, and that he related
It with admiration in proof of the fine
spirit of the fellows the United States
is sending across the Atlantic to hold
up Uncle Sans end of the world war.

Crushed Zeppelin Under Road Roller

When the French began to take to
pieces the skeleton of the gigantic Yep
pelin that fell on the hills near the
banks of the Buech they found it an
almost inextricable tangle of metal.
The way they went to work was most
ingenious.
At the suggestion of M. Dumanois,
naval engineer, they cut the carcass
apart with oxy-acetylene torches; the
pieces of framework were carried by
men to a nearby road. where heavy
steam road roller was sent over them
to crush them fiat. Thus the bulk was
reduced by four-ffths, and the metal
most aluminum-was carted away
to the foundry.
