Epigrams and Sayings
By ELLA WIIKKLER WILCOX
(Copyright. 1513, Star Company')
It may be true that whatever Is
[choice is always exclusive: but
; whatever is exclusive is not always
; choice.
As malice creates malice, so often j
: generosity arouses generosity.
The world is full of good-hearted
I yet short-sighted people who brand !
: any man as an infidel whose ideas of
| divine worship differ from their own.
We warn our sons with loud voices
apainst the dangers of the wine cup
I and the gaming table, but too many
of us sit silent while our daughters
| contract habits of malicious speaking
j and envious criticism, which are quite
I as great evils in society to-day as ln
! temperance or gambling.
Prayer is the key to heaven. It ad
; mits us to the sacrament of angels.
I Thoughtlessness is the consort of
| selfishness; and the two are parents
j of crime.
County Controller Gough
Didn't Think Formal
Resignation Necessary
"If I am o Vsdaily asked to resign
by the proper authorities who may !
consider that my failure to tender my 1
resignation heretofore offers a legal I
J obstruction to the selecting of succes-'
jsor as city controller, then I shall have i
no objection, certainly, to formally!
severing my services with the city."
; said County Controller 11. W. Gough,
i to-day.
j "However I always supposed that
! my service with the city as controller j
j automatically ceased when I became
county controller as I had believed the
[two elective offices incompatible. So, I
j therefore. I didn't think it necessary!
ito formally resign the city controller
\ ship."

Motherhood One Great 1.
Passion of Women
h> nonoTirv i>ix
' The artist has drawn for you on
'this page a tender and suggestive pic- '
jtiire showing how. from the cradle to;
| the grave, motherhood is the one j
l great passion of women.
We have first the little girl, herself j
a mere baby, cuddling her doll |
through sheer instinct of maternity, I
'just as you have watched your own!
little girl dong with her Christmas I
dollle—nature preparing her for the!
(little ones that lung years hence she [
|ls to sing and croon over.
Xext is the woman to whom her!
husband, larger than she is, older'
than she Is. perhaps twice as wise as< j
she is. is still her biggest baby to be l
| petted and fussed over, and spoiled j
and scolded, always her baby depen-!
! dent on her. no matter how great and
; strong he is to the balance of thej
world.
| I.ast. we have the old woman, who!
ihas mothered so many babies that the
j crooks of her arms form a cradle]
; of themselves, holding to her withered
breait her grandchild, her facce lit up!
, by that radiance of softness and gen- )
tlcneas that makes the homeliest wo-1
man beautiful when she looks at a
• baby.
| This great maternal passion is thej
| most wonderful thing in nature. It j
]ls not only what gives women the.
| strength and courage to hand on the
J torch of life from generation to gen
eration without counting the cost to
'themselves in suffering and death, but
it is what gives them the patience and
the low to bear with the infirmities
a..d the weaknesses of humanity.
Glory of Mother l.ovo S»ves lives of
Countless linhies
If it were not for this glory ofj
1 mother love through which a woman
j sees her own children transfigured
babies would die like flies. It is only
a mother who can hang with tireless
j devotion over the cradle of a sickly,
fretting infant, grotesquely ugly, with
! Its too big head hanging from a wob
bly neck, and sec in It something for
j which it is worth while to sacrifice
; every comfort and pleasure. Yet such
; children as these—children that any
! hireling would let die—have grown up
| to be the very flower of manhood and
womanhood, thanks to the mothers
Ijwho saved them at their own expense.
It is this passion of motherhood
that enables a woman to see beauty
"in her scrawny and frail baby and
literally mother it back into health
that also enables her to be blind to ]
the moral deformities of her child, j
and to behold virtues in it where i
others see only vices. It is the knowl- i
] ede that mother still believes in him.
I that mother has kept the lamp burn
ling in the window for him, that has
I lighted the way to reform for many
a prodigal. It is motherhood, with its
inexhaustible love and its comforting
(arms that never fail, that has kept the
' world from despair, and made men be
i lieve that there must be a God since
I He made mothers.
| It is the motherhood of women that
[explains the strange phenomena we
!so often see in domestic life of a
great-souled woman sacrificing her
self to a weak and worthless man. It
is often contemptuously said that the
less worthy of love a man is the more
some woman seem sto care for him,
and that no wives are so devoted and
so faithful as those of drunkards.
"Weakling: Man Appeals to the Eter
nal Motiler bi Woman"
The reason of this is that the weak
ling man appeals to the eternal
mother in the woman. Her love passes
from that of the wife to that of the
mother. The man ceases to be her
husband, her mate, and becomes her
child, her helpless, dependent baby,
and she could no more turn her back
upon him than she could leave her
!little babe alone to the cruel mercies
'of the world.
In her own soul she may despise
the weakness of the man who cannot,
j resist temptation. She may be filled
with contempt for him who is so cow
i ardly he lacks the grit and courage
'to stand up and fight his own battle
'of life. She may blush with shame
i for him who clings to a woman's
I skirts, but stronger than any of these
•is the instinct of nature to mother
i him just because he is weak and cling
! ing and dependent.
And it is a good thing for the strong
i, man as well as the weak man that this
|is true of women, because the mother
in them enables them to forgive to
(men many a fault and stumble that
■ the wife would never forgive the hus
• j band, and that men never forgive to
,' women.
Mothers Needed in Politics to Put
an End to Child I.abor
| Those of us who- believe in suffrage
I for women bflleve that the most valu
jable gift that women will bring to the
! service of their country, when they
iare permitted to serve it,is this passion
: of motherhood. We believe that we
need mothers in politics, that the
whole human race is crying to be
mothered. We believe that when wo
men have a vote there will be no more
child labor; that the life of a baby
will be thought to be as valuable as
| that of a pig, and that millions will
! not be spent for the conservation of
