P. GHAY MEEK, J. K. P. HALL. Secretary. Chairman OLD-FASHIONED MOTHERS. /g7 IIANKS to the Great Crea vi) tor, some of us have hat old-fashioned mothers. No a woman of the period, enamelec and painted, with her great chig lion, her curls, frills and bustle, whose white jeweled hands nevei felt the clasp of baity lingers; bul a dear, old-fashioned, sweet-voicec mother ; with eyes, in whost depths the love-light shone; am brown hair just threaded will silver, lying smoothly upon her faded cheek. Those dear hands, worn with toil, gently guided our tottering steps in childhood and smoothed our pillow in sickness, ever reach ing out to us in yearning tender ness. lilessed is the memory of an old-fashioned mother. It floats to us now, like the beautiful per fumes from some wooded blos soms. The music of other voices may l>e lost, but the entrancing memory of hers will echo in our souls forever. Other faces may fade away and be forgotten, but hers will shine on. When in the fitful pauses of business life our feet wander back to the homestead, and, crossing the well-worn threshold, stand once more in the room so hallow ed by her presence, how the feel ing of childhood, innocence and dependence conies over us, and we kneel down in the molten sun shine, streaming through the open window—-just where long years ago we knelt by our mother's knee, and lisped, "Our Father." How many times, when the tempter lured us on, has the memory of those sacred hours, that mother's words, her faith and prayers, saved us from plung ing into the deep abyss of sin. Years have filled great drifts between her and us, but they have not bidden from our sight the glory of her pure, unselfish love. — Wk are told that our young friend, Air. Clarence W. beidel, is receiving much encouragement in his canvass for commissioner, and will, in all probability, re ceive the strongest support at the primaries. Let it lie so, for Mr. Seidel is a young man of good judgment and we can rest assured that he will act judiciously if honored by the voters in liomi natipg and electing him. *o*o*o*o*o*o**o*o*o*o*o*o* | The One! ! Letter , I * By * O CHANNING POLLOCK o * £ o o * Copyright, IWM, by Channlnß Pollock J *o*o*o*o*o*o**o*o*o*o*o*o* After they had come to an under standing Frank Claxton took Virginia Carter to dinner at Giovanl's. This un derstanding, the result of many misun derstandings, put an end to their en gagement, and they chose to hold the wake over their dead love at the tiny restaurant where it had been born. Neither talked much during the meal, and when either spoke, for some rea son not easily explained, it was In a very low tone. The man said, "I sup pose 1 had better return your letters?" "There must be a great many of them," responded the girl, the corners of her mouth trembling Into a faint smile. "Yes. In—in three years"— "I shall send yours tomorrow—that Is, I shall send all but one. I should like to keep one—in memoriam. May I?" "If I may." "Certainly. 'A fair exchange,' you know." Claxton left her at the door of her apartment something less than sui hour later. On the way to his own home he marveled that he should regret what had happened so little. The petty quar rels of the past few mouths had worn out his endurance, he thought, and ren dered him indifferent to their culmina tion. lie wondered how she felt about it. At all events, the separation would leave him with more time—more time to work, more time to devote to the friends he had neglected since he had begun caring for her. In the matter of the quarrels he did not consider himself blameless. He realized this, and admired himtfc'f a bit for the inherent generosity which pre vented his holding her solely to ac count. Claxton reached his "plnee" in rather a relieved frame of mind. lie opened the door with a key fastened to a silver ring that she had given him on his birthday and walked straight across tiie library to his typewriter. Beskle the machine was a tiny cushion she had made for him to rest his elbow upon when he was "reading copy." He recalled that it had come wrapped in numberless pieces of paper, each one inclosed inside the other, like the eggs in a Chinese puzzle. That was about the time that the interest aroused by his tale of Central American life had opened the hearts of editors toward him. Somehow the detective story he had intended to begin did not fly from his linger tips as speedily as lie had ex pected. The first paragraph, after writing which, he told himself, things would go better, stood alone on the page, a succession of stilted and unin viting sentences. "Not in the mood," he confessed at last and strolled down Broadway to his club. The boy at the door didn't know hint, and when;after satisfying the stu pid fellow of his membership, he saun tered into the lounging room he was in an exceedingly unpleasant humor "Fnrsons been here this evening?" he Inquired brusquely of an attendant. "No, sir," replied the man. "lie does not come very often now, sir. Married, I believ«." Claxton cursed Parsons from the bot tom of his soul. "Graham?" he asked. "Mr. Graham was in about a week ago. We don't see him more than once a fortnight." "Funny," mused Claxton. "By George, I wonder if there's any one in the place?" Til ere was, in the writing room- Frederick Ford Ferguson, a youth just coaxing a timorous mustache into ex istence and tolerated only for the sake of his father, Major Ferguson, former ly of the Ninth infantry. Claxton would gladly have passed the young ster by, but lie was hailed before ho oould regain the hall. ".Stop a bit, old chap. I want to read you a line I'm sending to a friend of mine at Daly's. Bather a clever letter, you know." Claxton tore himself away and went bnelc home. What was Miss Carter do ing? lie would have wagered n hun dred that Phelps had called and taken her out. Confound Phelps! The story went more smoothly, stim ulated by the resentful energy of its nuuior. rTUin iw troovra unut uearrjr daylight the typewriter clicked inces santly. When it stopped clicking, seven pages of manuscript, much marred by pencil marks, lay on the table near at hand. It was a good story, he felt sure, although there were two or three de tails concerning which he would have liked a conservative opinion. "I'll take Virginia out for luncheon and read it to her," he thought. Then he remem bered that they had agreed never to see each other again—voluntarily, that Is. The day. which began with his rising at noon, dragged along monotonously. It was hard to realize that he might not speak to her over the telephone that stood on his desk and harder still to be convinced that she would not call him up. Toward midafternoon Claxton un locked a drawer and took out the nlm packages of her letters that represent ed a correspondence of three years. He must choose the one letter and return the rest to lier. To do this he must read every epis tle in the nine bundles. Claxton, in common with most men who write or net, was a sentimentalist, and lie want ed that the one letter should be the dearest of all. The first that met his eye he laid aside in the belief that it would prove the dearest. Miss Carter had penned it when he lay 111 of fever nt San Jose de Guatemala. "Your ca ble was repeated to me at Chicago," was the message. "Otherwise I should have been with you now. I know that if your illness continued you would need a nurse, and I felt that I could not delegate to strangers the privilege of attending you." It was a womanly letter—the letter of a woman mature in heart and brain—and Claxton pondered a long while before putting it aside. Next came a telegram, sent to his apartments before the telephone had been installed: "Please eome tonight. Am blue. Have wired Minnie stay home." A very sweet, dependent lit tle message, but of course not to be thought of as the single memento of 10 close a friendship as theirs had been. It WHS even preferable to retain the short note which he had always ascribed to her literary genius rather than to her foellngs. "Each thought of you, dropping into the waters of my heart, produces ever widening circles of tender recollection." Then there was an envelope from her, on the back of which he had com posed a fragment of verse. It began: Thou art so dear to mo. my love- So deur and. oh, so necessary! Claxton remembered that she had prized the poem above anything else he hail given her. "It Is so fine to be thought 'necessary,'" she had said. In this manner he progressed through five of the nine packages. Each letter seemed more desirable than the rest, and every moment made a selection less easy. This scrawl was a reassur ance which she had penciled on the leaf of her programme at the theater; that sheet of blue paper bore the first words of affection he had ever received from her. At the bottom of the Il.'i'i b'.m.lle was a long envelope with the name of a publishing company on its upper left hand corner. The postmark was over two years old. "Rejected manuscript," Claxton concluded, tossing it to one side contemptuously. That had come back In the days when rejected manu scripts had not been half so rare as good dinners or money with which to pay rent. Something approaching cu riosity made him pick up the envelope again and draw the contents from Its mouth. The story that lay before him was headed. "From Frank Claxton, 211 West Twenty-first Street," but the type unmistakably belonged to the ma chine which still remained a fixture at Miss Carter's. The tale was one that she had sent over his signature to an editor of whose opinion she had felt certain, and it had In consequence beeu returned to him when that gentleman had classed it as "unavailable." "I thought you'd get a check," Virginia had confessed, "and I knew you'd spend it without considering whys and wherefores. It's just like Phelps! He was enthusiastic over the plot when I j told It to him last week." "Virginia," lie hail remonstrated, "it was like ottering me charity." "Nonsense! 1 shouldn't have thought of handing you money. I simply wrote a story for you that you might have written yourself if you had taken time." "Taken time! Good Lord, how much time he had taken that year in just such discouraging, unremuuerative la bor! How unhappy he hud been and how awfully, awfully hard up! He hadn't begun spending every evening with her then, and he had t begun selling whatever he wrote either. "No body ever did—at first," she had as sured him. For twenty minutes Claxton sat si- i lently 011 liis chair island In the middle of a sea of letters. His fingers clung to the rejected manuscript, but his eyes looked beyond it into the past. All the half forgotten history of his love for Virginia Carter had been recalled to him with wonderful vividness—her un varying goodness, the sweetness of their intercourse, the erstwhile strength of his affection for her. A ship's clock in the adjoining room struck 2, the nautical fashion of saying that the hour was 5, and with quick resolution he be gan climbing Into his evening clothes. "I've come to take you to dinner," he said to Miss Carter when she respond ed to his pressure on the button at her door. "So you were lonely, too?" she asked him. "Lonely? By George, and those let ters"— She was too clever n girl not to seem surprised, and he could not look through the sides of her trunk Into the tray where reposed several packages of his letters to her, unsearched, un touched. since first they had been read and laid away. The Wink Tent. "It is easy," said an oculist, "to toil what kind of light most thoroughly suits your eyes. The light that is best for you is the one wherein you wink least. The wink, you see. is the eye's sign of weariness. I have experiment ed on myself, and I find that an elec tric light Is even better for my eyes than daylight. In daylight I wink two and elglit-tenths times a minute, whereas in nil electric light I only wink one and eight-tenths times. Can dle light is bad for me. In It I give six and a half winks a minute. Gaslight Is better, for In it I only give two and a third winks." Wllllnnr to Help. Here Is a real incident In the life of Fanny Kemble.

Even superficial students ot folklore know that the tale of Rip Van Winkle, supposing that Irving really heard it in the old Dutch settlements along the Hudson, is by no means peculiar to that district, but is found in some form or other all over the world. In other words, the Idea that it is possible for n human being to survive In a state of unconsciousness for a very long time would seem to be either a universal fancy or to be founded on some actual experience. Dr. Lancereuux In the Paris Bulletin of the Academy of Medicine reports Kuril an experience, the case of a wo man who actually did, so fur as intelli gent consciousness was concerned, sleep almost exactly twenty years. The patient, of a neurotic and hyster ical family, had always beeu delicate anil nervous. On May 31, ISB3, she was severely frightened and fell into violent hysteria, which after twenty four hours passed into unconscious ness. In this condition, interrupted ev ery month or six weeks by sudden con vulsive attacks, she lay until May 23, IPO3, kept alive entirely by injections of nourishment. On May 23 she was seized with hys teria similar to that at the beginning of her sleep, and the next day there was another On May 25 she began definitely to recover con sciousness and by the next day was able to speak Intelligently of events before her sleep and could also remem ber from day today since her waking. Of happenings during her sleep, such as the drawing of some of her teeth, she knew nothing. On the evening of May 28 she died peacefully. The particular ease is of interest chictiy to the medical profession, but the general fact of survival in uncon sciousness for a very long time shows how such tales as those of the Sleeping Beauty, the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus and Rip Van Winkle, to mention only the most familiar examples, could have originated from actual experience and observation. Very likely such cases oc curred more than once. "Truth is stranger than fiction," runs the old saying. It Is undoubtedly more correct to say that fiction is merely en larged, reduced, distorted and other wise decorated fact and that without a fact within general knowledge from which to start fiction could not exist. It is entirely safe to conjecture that at some prehistoric period, sleeping not out of doors, of course, but under shel ter, and for many weeks and probably months, if not years, there was a Rip Van Winkle.—Chicago Inter Ocean. A Tarpon Scareeroiv. Times and places there are where the tarpon have been so numerous and so free in their antics as to be a pest to the small fishermen, who in a certain bay once harpooned a lordly fish, lash ed him to a keg and pointed him to the open sea. Drawing the floating barrel, he went, splashing terror to his kindred, an aquatic scarecrow. And as the mili tant hogshead, ferried by a leaping twelve stone fish, went marching down the bay all tarpon, great and small, took warning that they must keep their performances within the bounds of de cency.—Country I-ife In America. To Keep Hill Street Clean. Keeping Mill street cleau and pre sentable, fiiuoe being paved, is a prob lem that is not yet solved to the sat isfaction of all. The street,which wan cleanly flashed last Saturday a we3k, by the middle of last week began to show np very badly. It has become apparent that a street sweeper will have to be purchased to nse in connec tion with sprinkling or that some oth er measure equally as efficacious will havo to be employed. Council hv» not abandoned tl o idea of flashing the street witli lire ho.se. The objection that the force of the water from tin mains has the tendency to dislodge the cement from between the bricks is met by the suggestion that the nozzle b> removed from tl e hose.
