BITTERNESS, WITH JOY
SWEETNESS ALWAYS IN THE
COMING AND DEPARTING.
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

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.

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.

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."
