To whom is their success due? Verily, to that mother rhose teaching started their little feet aright, and whose saint-like face acted as a beacon light to them when tossed upon the strong sea of temptation. Patience and hope make it easier to bear the cares and sorrows of life. Money and time are the heaviest burdens of life, and the unhappiest of all mortals are those who have more of either than they know how to use. Do today’s duty, fight today’s temp- tations. Do not weaken or distract yourself looking forward to things you cannot see, and could not understand +| if you saw. Failure does not always mean weak- ness; it may mean strength not quite strong enough for the greater task. People who attempt nothing, seldom fail. cause all of against him. Europe was arrayed There are in this world many won- derful things. .Crystal rivers, moun- tains wearing eternal coronets of snow, the oceans and continents, the sun rid- ing in majesty through its pathway of stars, his resplendent robes trailing like burnished gold over land and sea. The age itself in which we live is one of miracle, but of all the wonderful creatures of man and his creator, there is nothing grander, more wonderful or more valuable than true woman. Her price is far above rubies. Woman, wife, mother! These three degrees complete the magic circle in which she lives, moves and has her being and glory. “The first day I was sent to school I 41 went home at recess, thinking school was out,” says Bert Walker. “As I have grown older I find that a whole lot of people did the same thing, and the sad part of the affair is that too many of us never went back.” In this life be careful that you don’t go home at recess. If you start to learn a trade or profession, stay by it and master it. Don’t chase away at recess. If you have a business, attend to it and—don’t go home at recess. This going home at recess has sent man intobankruptey. It has caused mother’s tears to flow and mother’s heart to ache. It has made crusty old bachelors and sour old maids. It has filled worlds with ignor- ance and made barren deserts of plains. Going home at recess means that you have fallen asleep at the switch, and your train has plunged into the ditch. Always stay until school is out. The happy, ideal home is not the home of wealth, neither is it the home of extreme poverty. In the ideal home you may not see any costly furniture, no grand piano or stately pictures; yet how pleasant and contented the in- mates! The father has no business cares or political ambitions to vex him; the mother has no trouble with unruly servants. No question of fine display in dress to occupy her thoughts. With pleasure the father and mother see the first tottering steps of, the little one, and feel the exquisite joy which it brings to the heart of the parent to know that the first-born can walk. In the home of the rich the children are put to bed by the servants, while the parents are at the opera. The wealthy know not of the pleasure of family and home when compared with those in very moderate circumstances. A girl whose days are spent in idle- ness, dreaming of things that can never come to pass,ior reading unwholesome books while her mother toils in tie kitchen, had better never been born. Her life is purposeless; a dead weight for her father and brothers to carry with them ; she is a misery to herself and friends ;ishe is shunned by all sen- sible young mer. and finally becomes a cross, pevish, irritable old maid, if she is so fortunate as to escape the tempta- tions so likely [to ensnare one whose moral senses;,are rendered blunt by reading the questionable exploits of the heroes and heroines of the modern novel—thejicurse of our homes; the thing that ruins more young men and young womenjthan all other evils com- bined—the foe that all true mothers should fight as they would an adder. One offthe many interesting sights at Yellowstone Park is the ,eagle mother teaching the young to start on the journey of life. With her own wing she pushes the young bird off the rock of the high ledge, which had been the only home it had ever known. With a mother’s eye she watches it fall, but be- fore it strikes the rocks below, with the speed of the wind she darts beneath it, and the young eagle finds a soft land- ing upon the feathers of its mother’s back. It§is then carried to the highest cliff, and the experiment repeated, un- til the young eagle gets strength in its wings and can safely go on life’s jour- ney alone. With the same watchful care does the good mother gee her fiock, one by one, leave the old home. One by one she lets them go. One to be a missionary,one a doctor, one a pub- lisher. With the eye of an eagle she watches them as they successfully Napoleon failed at Waterloo be-! VALUABLE COAL DEPOSITS FOUND. Penn-Garrett Coal Mining Company Uncover a Vein of Six Feet. That the Penn-Garrett Coal Mining Company, chartered by the Legislature of Maryland at its last session to op- erate in the Lower Youghiogheny coal basin is about to become a factor of great importance in the business com- munity of Garrett county is an assured fact, and that the gentlemen in control of the affairs of the coal concern are up-to-date and know what they are do- ing is fully evidenced by the results already achieved within the short time since work was commenced. Two mines have been opened in the lower six-foot or “split-six” vein, and both have reached the point of develop- ment where the company is prepared to ship the output. A third mine is well under way, and will be putting out coal for shipment within the next ten days from the upper six-foot or “Davis vein.” This latter has been sprung as quite a surprise by the man- ager of the company upon his associates and the community at large, as no one suspected that a vein of such dimen- sions was in existence, until last Thars- day, when two men were set to work with pick and shovel, and within a few hours the “Davis vein” was exposed to view, showing six feet of coal. At the time of going to press this morning we learn by telephone that this mine is in a distance of forty feet, and shows four feet of coal in the lower bench, with a parting of eight inches of slate, with two feet of coal in the upper bench. The character of development work being done by this company speaks well for its management and is evi- dence of the fact that they mean busi- ness, as no other better or more sub- stantial development work has ever been done by any coal company. The so-called “split-six” vein, in which work was first started by the Penn-Garrett Company, seems to be a valuable piece of coal heretofore over- looked in this county, as the opening made by the local concern shows three and a half feet to four feet of a very superior coal, with an upper two-foot bench of standard soft coal. In addi- tion to the two veins above mentioned, a trial drift has been driven some thirty feet in. the Thomas or Upper Freeport vein, showing three and a-half feet of splendid coal. With this work well started and prospects brightening every day, if it is continued, the towns of Friendsville and Kendall are entering upon a period of prosperity and growth never hereto- fore anticipated, and Garrett county has another business enterprise under way that means much for every resi- dent of the county. The Penn-Garrett Company bas al- ready completed a boarding house for ite employes. It is built along lines of modern style, and is equipped with reading rooms, wash room and other necessary conveniences for the men engaged at the mines, being erected with a view to their comfort. The company also has under way twenty- five double dwelling houses, beside tip- ples, stables, workshops and other buildings which are necessarily a part of a well equipped mining plant.—Oak- land Republican. LATEST NOVEL IS OF NEW JERSEY LIFE. “Doe. Gordon,” by Mary E. Wilkins, to be Published Next Sunday. The best novel for the reader is the novel that most nearly portrays the people with whom the reader comes in contact. David Harum pictured a homely character and his friends in such a way as to make every réader of the book find in his own community a counterpart of the great philosopher and horse trader. Mary E. Wilkins-Freeman, who has for some years been known as the author who drew true life portraits of the characters of the New England village, has found a new field for her work. She has written a novel, the characters for which she has found in southern New Jersey. Whether the people of that section will enjoy her pictures is yet to be seen, but they will surely enjoy the story itself—one of the greatest mystery-romances ever writ- ten. The title of the novel is “Doc. Gor- don,” and the first installment will be printed in the Sunday North American next Sunday, August 5. It will be completed during the month of August in the special fiction supplement of that paper before it is allowed to ap- pear in book form. The demand for the Sunday North American for August is already enor- mous, and readers who would not miss reading all of the Wilkins novel should make themselves safe by ordering the paper for the full month. ert HAVE YOU A WANT?—If so, try a small “ad” in Tee STAR.

A Boston couple were recreating near Augusta, and met an old negro woman ta whom they took a fancy. They in- vited her to pay them a visit, and the colored woman accepted, especially as her expenses were to be paid. In due time she arrivéd in Boston and was installed in the house of the white folks. She was given one of the best rooms, and ate at the same table with her host and hostess. At one of the meals the hostess said : “Mrs. Jones, you were a slave, weren't you?” “Yes mum,” replied the old colored woman. “I belonged to Mars Robert Howell.” “] suppose he never invited you to eat at his table?” remarked the Boston lady. “No, honey, dat he didn’t.
