HE MOTHER OF AIRY sCHEFFER

THE MOTHER OF Ahf SCHEr CsN
 Exactly the opposite, from every angle, to the case of Schopenhauer and his mother, was the case of Ary Scheffer, great French artist. and his mother Here was a woman who sacrificed herself times without number for the son she held so dear. And when success wae his he repaid her thousand fold with love and appreciation.
 Mime. Scheffer was left a widow. at the age of 2S, in a small Dutch village She had three promsing g young sons, of whom Ary was the eldest She felt he could become a ing, and, scorning all help, she took her three sons and migrated to Paris so that Ary might study under the right teachers.
 For years she struggled, even sell ing her wedding ring and a brooch her husband had given her before they were married. It was all for Ary She knew he would succeed for. as the bographer says, "In heart and taste and ambition, Ary and The Little Mother were one."
 He did succeed, before his twenty first birthday, and life was smoother for .oThe Little Mother" But always she remained his friend, and kept in tellectual pace with him and his brothers. Writing of her, an emi nent historian says:
 "She was the flint upon which he tried his steel; his teacher, adviser critic, friend. She was a singularly strong and capable woman, seeming ly slight and fragile, but with deal of whipcord. sinewy strength in both her physical and mental fiber"

Longfellow's s Poem Set To Music To Be
 GiUen

One of the interesting numbers which will be presented by the Treble Clef chorus April g at Walker Me morial church. is the following choral ballad. Tho Slaves Dream" Long fellows beautiful poem, set to music by H. Alexander Mathews. Beside the ungathered rice he lay, His sickle in his hand; His breast was bare, his matted hair yWas buried in the sandsS Again, in the mist and shadow of He saw his native land wiaA, through the landscape of his dreams
 The lordly Niger flowed; Beneath the palm trees on the plain Once more a5Ring fesstrode; And heard the tinllling caravans Descend the mountain road. He saw once more his dark eyed Among her childre nstand; They clasped his neck, they kissed his
 cheeks.
 They held him b ythe hand; tear burst from the sleeper's lids And fell into the sand. And then at furious speed he rode Along the Niger's bank; His bridle reins were golden chains. And with martial clank. At each leap he could feel his scab-
 bard of steel
 Shifting his stallion's flank. Before him, like blood-red flag, The bright flamingoes flew: From morn till night he followed
 their flight.
 Ger plains where the tamarind
  Till he saw the roofs of Kaffir huts, And the ocean rose to view. At night he heard the lion roar, And the wild hyena scream. And the river horse. as he crushed the
 reeds
 Beside some hidden stream; And 1t passed like a glorious roll of
 drums
 Through the triumph of his dream. The forests. with their myriad
 tongues,
 Shouted of liberty: And the blast of the desert cried
 aloud
 With a voice so wild and free. That he started in his sleep and
 smiled
 At their temptestuous glee. He did not feel the drivers whip Nor the burning heat of day; For Death had illumined the Land
 of Sleep,
 And his lifeless body lay A worn -out letter, that the soul Had broken and thrown away. These lines were composed by Longfellow during a voyage in a very heavy sea, when he was confined to his berth, meditating during the stormy, sleepless nights. A small win dow in the side of the vessel admitted light into his berth. and there as the great waves struck and broke with voices of thunder, he lay soothing his soul with songs.
 The chorus is under the direction of Mrs. William Gussen.
