Misslves' From Absent Children Serve to Gladden Mother Who Must for a Time Be Parted From Those She Loves. "The last chick hati gonel" Mrs. Cambury opened the long win dow and walked out on the terrace. Yesterday morning "Pat" had stood there by her elde-Patricia, the young est, the last to leave the old home. Today the wedding bustle was over and the house was empty. Mrs. Cam bury shaded her eyes with her hand and looked down into the rambling garden. Even more than the house, it brought her boys and girls back before her. Now they belonged to the world and she Was alone. Intq her heart came the bitterness of motherhood .the having and the losing. "Miss Pat told me to give you this as soon as you came down this morn ing," Raid Martha, the maid. Her eyes saw the tear her mistress wiped away hastily. "Poor dear, I don't wonder!" she thought. "There never was a finer set qof boys and girls." Sho put Patricia's letter in the hand -that Mrs. Caimbury held out, eagerly. "Dearest. Mother," the letter ran, "i can't help going, becau-se of Edwin; but I shall not forget one of the things you've lived to teach us, and I'll try to inake a home for E1dwin as sweet as the home you've mnade for us." The postian's knock broke in. "Three letters," Alartha announced, 'with the freedom of long service. "And I wonder whether they didn't do it a-purpose," she muttered, as she went back to the kitchen. She knew the handwriting on every one of the three. Mrs. Camhury's face flushed with J)leasure. They had all written, the children who had gone away from her From a mission station it India, Ralph wrote: "I wonder whiethi-er you are exulitfg today over tho fact that there will be one more center from which your influence will spread out, or whether Pat's departure seens nothing but the chipping off of anoth. er bit of. the perfect home life. Did I ever tell you-no, I know I have not that the -,ix little lads in our orphart.. age look forward to the 'unlighte! hour' ju:t as eagerly as we did at home? I think they get nearer to me. and I to thiem, in thoset talks in the dimness. That 'unlighted hour,' wher you gave yourself to us entirely, was always the best in the whole day. It is not given up, dear. It has taken root out here in India." Maggie, tle youig mother, sent a comical little story of her babies, and of nursery difficulties. "Thanks to your training, I can at ford to laugh," she said. "There is no emergency in my nursery that I car. not meet. Half a dozen mothers round here, who envy me my independence. are learning from me. So you see your influence does not stop with my babies, but bids fair to go on indefl. nitely." From a school in the West, Rupert wrote: "I can never thank you enough for your boundless patience with and faith in a certain trying boy. 9ptimism, caught from you, cheers and encourages my pupils." Mrs Cambuiy looked tup. "It is very bitter, and v'ery sweet, to be a mother," she said.-Youth's Companion. Her Art Not Appreciated. Varnishing day at (lie Royal acadlemy is always an impoertant and interesting functIon. Canvases and panels that have been thirsty enotigh to absorb the oil from the whole or portions of the pictures paintedl upon them have once more the luster 'of their first painting restored by these pieli-me ups. Members of the year's hanging com mittee are always at hand on these oc casions to consider stuggestions and compla~nts about their recent labors. The chief complaint this year was by a lady who found her work had been hung horizontally instead obvertically. Unkind friends catutioned her thant pos aibly it had been accepted on (lie hori zontal understanding. Cover Bottles With Leather. In carrying a small bottle, for in stance, of medicine on a voyage, it is un excellent plan to make a lea ther covering for it. and this is easily done. In this way If the bottle breaks there is no danger from wotundcs cai'ied by the glass, and (lie cover- nets as a goodi protector. For a square seet in bottle, trace (lie profile on a piece of leather four times side by side, antd add (lie small square representing thie bottom, to one of the profles. Ctut ting out with (lie scissors, this makes only one seam at (lie end to) be sewed up, also (lie parts at the nteck of the bottlhe anid the bottom piece. Here and'Hereafter. The Tatler tells the story of an old Scotchmnan whose wit was edged with pessimism. One mornIng lhe met at ,her gate a neighibor' whose hutsbanid was seriously Ill. "And hoe's yer husband this 'morn ing, AMrs. Tamnson?" lie asked, solici totisly. "Oh, lie's awfu' bad! Thle dlocter 1id his temperature has gone to 150f!" "Nao, nao, you've made a mistake! Sandy's temperature could never be as nIucoklo as 150-at least, not in this World," he added, as an afterthought. o-Youth'n Compaton. ALL IN THE SPIRIT EVINCED "Profession" or "Trade" Have Little Distinction Without Certain Im portant Differences. It is contrary to human instinct to be Idle. Some naturally prefer the good and live to be useful. Others evilly inclined, if useful at all, are so by compulsion-in order to live. De :tween these extremes are the careless or'discouraged, who work only to get the mears of a living. We would not be misunderstood as mineaning that, to be a professional man, one must work for nothing, de e lares a writer in Power. Neverthe ess, the truly professional man who ideserves the dignity of that classifica oun makes his chief concern the good t can do. le is more anxious to be tuseful than rich. Common acceptance of the term akes all clergymen, doctors and law .yera professional, but, more is the .Pity, some in their ranks forget that rthe mission of service is fundamental, 'the .acquisition of wealth incidental. Just a% there are these exceptions among those supposed to be of these professional classes, there are many in 'the humbler walks considered to be long to the trades, wbo care more to texcel in their lines than for anything ielse. They have a pride in their work -and will do as conscientiously whether their wages are high or low. We stsmit that the real distine tion between profession nnd' a trade Is the spirit in which it is usually fol lowed. Viewed in this light, your vo cation is the one or, the other accord. ing to whether yoit engage in it for what you put in it, or what you get out of it. In other words, whether you work for the love of it, or for the money it brings. PERHAPS THAT CARRIAGE WAS .Recruit May Not Have Been Alt4 gether in the Wrong as to the Upper Furnishings. The German recruit was being drilled In military manners-a most important bra'nch of the art of war as practised in the Fdtherland. For one thing he had to be taught how to be have on the street-whom to saltite, and when, and all that sort of thing. Tho method of instruction was to havo the novice walk up and down the court yard of the barracks, while from this corner and that non-conmissioned oicers kept popping out suddenly and saying "I am a Royal Highness," or "I am the Military Governor." or "I am the Master of the Royal Dachs hunds," or the like exalted titles. Thereupon the appropriate salute had to be given. Everything had been going on very well until a mischievous corporal dud denly planted himself before the re cruit and said, "I am a Royal Car riage." The recruit marched straight on without taking any notice. "Why didn't you salute?" yelled the sergeant In charge. '.I beg your pardon," stammered the recruit, "but I was under the impres sion that the carriage was empty." Sad Sights in Mexico. I saw beggars everywhere in Mexi co, many of them ranged alongside the church soliciting alms from worshipers or from passersby. I saw the signs of ignorance and general depravity. I saw wounded men and suffering wom en. But the worst thing that I saw in Miexico was a 'little six-year-old boy, badly crippled, who was compelled to, wvalk on his hands as wvell as his feet, because his legs weren't strong enough to support even his frail little body. Hie looked like a toad, but his face was gentle and sad. H~e had big black eyes that seemed to search one's soul. Oc-. casionally he would stop as he crawled along the street, and look at his torn fingers and hands--the streets were made of gritty little stones that cut his flesh. If only somebody had pro vided him with gloves! But' this was Mexieo. Nol~ody seemed concerned about thIs little fellowv. He wasn't a beggar. H~e made no appeal for money. lHe was just a little boy who needed friendship. But "of such is the king. dom of heaven."-Christian Ilerald. 'Touching Appeal. A literary critic called one day to see a friend who was trying hard to estab)lish a rep~utation as a novelist. "Read that!" said the novelist, thrusting a manuscript into his guest's hand. "it's my latest short story, and I want you to tell moo what you think of It." .A few minutes later' ho was sur prisedl to see his viitor', wiping tears from his eyes. "My dlear chap, this is really the most pathetic thing you've over done!" said thie critic. "What!" gasp~ed the author. "[ wvrote it as humorously as I could!" Hie looked at the manuscript. "Oh, I see; It's my mistake. I've given you the wrong thing. That Is my letter to the income 'tax commissioners asking for a r'ebatq." Keeping Your Word. The following quotat ion from Do Morgan's "W\hen Ghost Meets Ghost" may hell) a few to se he moral iasue mmore clearly. Mr. .Jerryi began, feebly: "You can't do more thanu keep your word, Mo. . .." Mo, a fine old ex-. ipriz/e-iighter, replies: "Yes, you can, Jerry* You can keep your meanin'. And you can do iore than that. You can keep to what the other party thought you meant, when you know. I know this time. I ain't in a court o' justice, Jerry, dodgin' about, and I know when lim square, by the feel."
