During the civil war ihere w as a woman in Maine who ; received a letter which ran thus; "Willie is sick; lie is living." The mother read the letter and looking up to her husband said: "Father, 1 must go to Willie." "No, wife, you cannot go," he re plied. "You know there is a line of bayonets between you and Wil lie." She did what the Christian mother always does u hen her hoy is in peril. She spread that letter before the Lord and prayed all night. Next morning she said, "Father, I must go to Willie. I must." "Well, wife," be said, "I do not know what will come of this, hut if you will go there is the money." She came down here to Washington, and the man in the Lxeeutive Mansion who had a heart as tender as a woman's Abraham Lincoln brushed a tear as he wrote, and handing the paper said, "Madam, that will lake you to the enemy's line, hut what will become of you after you gel there I cannot tell." She took the paper and came down to the line and the picket; she handed him the pass, and he looked at il and at her, and said: 1 "We don't take that thing here." , "1 know it!" she said; "but Willie, : my boy, is dying in Richmond, and I ant going to him. Now shoot !" He did not shoot, but stood awed and hushed in the presence of a love that is more like God's than any other that surges in the hu man soul in Hs deathless unselfish ness. All that mother thought of was her hoy. Smuggled through the lines, she went down to the hospi tal. The surgeon said to her, "Madam, you mu-t he very care ful; your boy will survive no ex-, eitement." She crept past cot after cot, and knell at the foot of the one where her boy lay, and putting up her hands prayed in ; soothing tones: "O God, spare my boy." The sick man raised his w hite hands from under the sheet; the sound of his mother's voice had gone clear down into the valley and shadow of death, where the soul of the young man was go ing out in its ebbing tide. Raising his hand he said, "Mother, I knew you would come." That boy is a man today, saved by a mother's love. --The Progressive Age.
