mother had been getting along well la
the world mid had seen no reason for
timing n Hum help her tannage her
affairs, nnd lis she vowed that this
state would last forever she divided
that mother hud best go with her.
iMiuyhter decided that nil the old
furniture must lie sold nnd that they
must move Into a new house with all
new furniture.
It was pathetic to see how mother
watched each old piece of furniture, as
he dusted It on her dally rounds.
The old walnut bedstead, the cherry
dresser, the old-fashioned rane-hot-
lomed walnut chairs that hud been In
her room so long wore old friends).
She protested feebly ag'ilnst hav
ing to have n new brass bed In thn
new home. As the day for moving
drew nearer mother became more and
more depressed. The business dair.'h
ter. engrossed In her own affairs, did
not know the heart pnnc It win fall
ing for mother to reconcile herself to
the parting with the obi fitrnltura.
It was mother's ll"l to the past.
A dn.v before moving Into the netr
place, the son from the far city enme
home. Me had nn miderstnndlns
heart. He saw In n minute what the
daughter had failed to see. Mother
Just could not part with the old furni
ture. The dnnghter Insisted that h
must not hnve any n!d-fahloned stuff
cluttering up the new house. The son
argued for n room for mother with nil
the old furniture. Itut the daughter
was not sentimental.
A bed was to be slept In. That
was fir extent of Its vnltin. How
mother could cling to those relic wns
more than she could understand. Sis
ter had always remembered her broth
er ns too sentimental for his ow n good.
Slip had wondered how It was he had
escaped marriage thus far. Hut the
son understood his mother.
lie could see how she was aging,
for he had not been with her every
day for yenrs. He understood her n
her daughter did not. I.tfe wlthont
the old associations would he mere
existence.
He found mother nibbing the looking-glass
on the old dresser. There
were tenrs In her eyes. Then he could
stand It no longer.
Mother. I just came home to tell
you that I have come back to the old
town to accept n new position, nnd I
nn sick and tired of lintels. Why
can't I move lay trunk home here, fix
up father's old room for my desk ami
papers nnd live like I used to?
"Kvcrythlng In this old house will
stny Jilst as It Is. Only I have to cet
some of those old rag carpets for tho
bedrooms like we had years and years
ago. You are going to he boss of tho
ranch. I'll be the hired hand. nn!
we'll make the old house he glad it'o
still standing."
Mother did not say n word. She be
gan to cry. And because the son un
derstood women and especially moth

Their Fear Net Realized.
The great fear of those whose act
here tn Philadelphia HO years ago
made this n nation was that the state
would not remain n nation, a writer In
the Philadelphia Public I.oilvr says.
History has proved In their cu.se the
falsity of the oplgrnni:
"Tne tiling you fear will get you."
What they feared never happened.
We are a young country, but u very old
government, ns governments go.
Cull the roll of the nations nnd you
will see that a majority of them are
babies beside the United States. Ja
pan's present Imperial regimen Is not
half n century old.
The house of Hohcnzollcrn Is fairly
ancient, but the German empire Is not
yet fifty and the French republic is no
older,
Austria nnd Hungary were yoked
together long after Franklin told Ihe
signers of the Declaration of Independ
ence they must nil hang together or he
hanged separately.
Italy's kingdom Is not half so old as
the United States. Portugal's republic
Is a thing too young to vote, nnd the
Chinese republic bus not yet been
weaned.
AH the scoro of Central and South
American republics tire much younger
than Is this greatest of world repub
lics. Nearly half the human nice has now
copied that lesson which wus an
nounced by the Liberty bell.
Bluffed the New Conductor.
He stood at the corner waiting for
i car. Several cars had stopped to let
him get on but he made uo move to
get aboard.
Finally one slopped and a man got
oft.
"Did you pay your fare to the end of
the Hue?" Inquired the waiting man.
"Y'es." said the man w ho got off.
"Can I have your seat?" he asked. .
"Slire, It's the last one on the flgh,
hand side, cross Bent."
Tho man clambered aboard and hur
ried to the seat Just left vacant '
"Fare pl.'ase," said the conductoi
shortly tifterwards.
"Fare nothing," responded the man.
"1 Just took the other fellow's place
who got of' and he said he paid to
the end of the line nnd said that !
could have his seat."
The response evidently was a stutv
ner for the new conductor nnd he was
o surprised be passed up the furs.
