' THE BATTLEFIELD. f A mother's heart is a battlefield, A mother's heart is a nest Where love leans down with snowy shield And lips that sing to rest, A mother's heart is the plain where meet r Through all her days of life The legions of the childhood feet, The glittering ghosts of strife. A mother's heart is a field of war Where none may know, may see, The wounds that bleed, the guns that roar, The anguish hours that be, A mother's heart is a battle's home, But, oh, so few have knelt ^JVith her where shadows fill gloam, Have felt what she has felt! A mother's heart Is a warfare's realm, In it, unseen of time, Rage the grim wars that overwhelm But for her faith sublime. A mother's heart is where she hides So much she never tells. So much that in her bouI abides And conquering lovehood quells. the ; A mother's heart—oh, sacred place, Oh, templed fane, how fair To kneel beside its shrine of grace, T'o kneel aud«worship there! A mother s heart is calm retreat, Is rest and love and song, And round It, oh, how tender-sweet The shades of memory throng! —Selected. from Newport: The following Is "Saturday.—Officers of the army and residents summer navy and many Joined at the naval torpedo station this afternoon in welcoming Lieut Comman der and Mrs. Mark L.
