firming. Saturday, May 2, 1888 Mother’s Day On May 10, what do mothers really want? We offer this epitaph from a Penobscot, Maine, gravestone to give you a hint: “Here lies a poor woman. Who always was tired; She lived in a house, Where help was not hired; Her last words on earth were, ‘Dear friends, I am going; Where washing ain’t dr Nor sweeping or sewing; But every thing there is exact to my wishes, For where they don’t eat. There’s nr washing dishes; I’ll be where loui anthems will always be singing, Bi having no voice, I’ll be clear of singing; Don’t mourn for me now, _ mourn for me never. I’m going to do nothing forever and ever.’ ” My idea of superwoman is someone who scrubs her own floors cr For a quick (temporary) fix, mend holes in screens with a bit of melted candle wax.
