Mother-love a around, mother-pride wounded to the quick. She brought m? back to th h' hool and angrily told the i.-arher that he didn't know what he was talking about, that I bad more brains than he himself, and a lot more talk like that. In fact, the ust the mont enthusiastic champion a boy ever had. and I determined right then that I would be worthy of her and nhow her that her confl- lence wa not misplaced." Youth'i Companion. Tlio New Fourth. I sincerely believe that our na tional birthday can be observed with heartfelt, patriotic rejoicing and yet without the slightest danger to life or limb, without any nerve-racking noise or display of hoodlumisni, and without any of the extravagant out lay which has characterized our former celebration. Flags can float, national music be played and sung in places now given over solely to the deafening din of cannon fire crackers, the Declaration of Inde pendence be read at all of our public buildings, where Inspiring addresses may also be made, and street dis plays, such as processions with floats, beautiful as well as instructive, fur nish delightful object lessons of the greatest events In our history. Then, at night, we may have illuminations, both private and municipal, and dis plays of fireworks In open places. where the exhibitions can be con ducted by experienced men, thus avoiding all danger of the shocking accidents which now sadden our celebration. Let us, on this day, forget the noise of battle and the passions of international strife, and remember only the wonderful spirit of sacrl lice, and patriotism, and brother hood which animated our Kevolu tionary heroes. Let us, who know what that day means, endeavor to make it both memorable and illumi nating to those who do not by open ing the hearts of the children, of the poor and ignorant, of the dis tressed and disheartened alien within our gates, to at least a partial sig nificance of what we honor in our glorious festival. Let us enter personally into the work, giving tender endeavor as well as means, to the task of making the occasion the hapipest of all the year to the ignorant and the wretch ed. Let us give them a day of liber ty in the country or in the parks, where they will see our beautiful flag floating everywhere about them, and where their untrained ears will become accustomed to the ringing rhythm of our national melodies. Let us give them mementoes of the Fourth, such as flags and pictures of our heroes and of those whom we love as well as honor. There let them listen to the story of the birth of our Republic, and have it told simply and, if necessary, in their own tongues, so that all can feel how great were those who made the coun try free, and how wonderful is the boon of liberty now extended to the oppressed of other countries. June Century. Edison's Mother. "My mother was the making of me. She was' so true, so sure of me; and I felt that I had some one to live for, some one I must not dis appoint," said Thomas A. Edison to a writer for the New York World Mr. F. A. Jones, in "Thomas Alva Edison," says that all who knew her appreciated her goodness. "I did not have my mother very long," Edison said, at the time spoken of, "but in that length of time she cast over me an influence which has lasted all my life. The good effects of her early training I can never lose. If it had not been for her appreciation and her faith in me at a critical time in my expert ence, I should very likely never have become an inventor. "I was always a careless boy, and with a mother of different menta caliber I should probably have turn ed out badly. But her firmness, her sweetness, her goodness were potent powers to keep me in the right path. I remember I used never to be able to get along at school. I don't know now what it was,, but I was always at the foot of thc.lclass. I used to feel that the teac prs never sympa thized with me, and that my father thought that I was stupid, and a last I almost decided that I must really be a dunce. My mother was always kind, always sympathetic, and she never misunderstood or misjudg ed me. But I was afraid to tell her any of my difficulties at school, for fear she, too, might lose her confi dence in me. "One day I overheard the teacher tell the inspector that I was 'addled,' and it would not be worth while The Cruelty of War. It is part of war's destruction. When unable to capture, spike your enemy a gun. The port at cavue was equipped with a battery of the ateHt improved Krupp cannon, every one of which we wound with a band age of euncotton. Guncotton looks just like cube sugar strung on cop oer wire. When each gun had a string a round its middle, we switch ed on the current and the deed was done. They were effectually choked, resembling long rolls of butter that had been grasped between the thumb and finger, leaving an encircling de pression. Of course it was a shame md a pity, just as it was a shame to treat the Mindanao as we did. She was a beautiful transport, fresh from Spain, her cargo still aboard, and during the battle she had been run up on the shoals off Las Pines and abandoned. That very day, before the sun had set, as if our engines were playing "Be hold El Captain!" we steamed out and our for'ard turrets sent two eight-inch shells full length, clean through her, then wheeled majes tically and repeated the salute from our aft turrets. In the morning she was still there, and we sent the little Concord out to set her on fire. She burned for a week, and I never looked toward her devouring flames without wondering how much provision they were con suming; but we are obeying orders ihey distinctly read, " Engage and destroy."

Hard to know She learns so much each day that helps her so? Why can I not each night and morn ing say, "I am so glad that she is glad to day?" Selected. What Dolls Tliink. It is true we're stuffed with saw dust And can never learn to cook; It is true .we have no organs And can ever learn to talk; It is true we're only dollies And dollies must remain; But we're free from faults and fol lies lhat might cause our mammas pain. Can you tell us when you ever Saw our faces spoiled with frowns? And we're sure you never heard us Make a fuss about our gowns! Then we do not tease the kitty, We are always kind In play, And we think 'twould be a pitty For a doll to disobey! When the parlor clock strikes seven; Not a fretful word is said, And our little mammas tell us It is time to go to bed. So you see, though we are dollies And dollies must remain, We are free from faults and follies That might i cause our mammas pain. Our Young Folks. Baked Hams. It is frequently asked why some hams taste so much better than oth ers. This would not be the1 case i they were baked, and not boiled un til all the sweetness was extracted which is generally done in the ma jority of cases where they are found tasteless and discolored. Of course a great dl depends upon the qual ity of the ham. and none but the best sugar cured should be selected Here Is a good rule for their treat ment:" Make a stiff paste of flour and water, with which completely cover the ham. Then place it in a bake pan containing a little water, with which it must be occasionally basted It will require about four or five hours to bake a ham of medium size in a moderate oven. The cook must, of course, use her judgment by testing it occasionaly with a fork At the expiration of that time re move the ham, and the entire top can be peeled oft like a sheet o leather, leaving only the fat ex posed, which must be well covered with bread crumbs. Return to the oven long enough to brown, then se aside until cold before using, as it is twice as easy to cut in tempting thin slices, besides lasting as long again. Bear in mind one thing never cut ham against the grain; al ways begin in the center, and you will do well. A Monster Clock. Colgate & Co.' giant clock, the biggest in the world on top of their soap plant in Jersey City, has been set in motion. The dial of the clock is thirty-eight fee across. The minute hand is twenty feet long, and with Its counterpoise weighs nearly a third of a ton, while the weight that moves the mechanism weighs 2,000 pounds. At night the hands are outlined with incandescent lights, red lights marking each num eral and an incandescent light each minute mark. The tip of the minute hand travels twenty-four inches every minute. Exchange.' How Many Prophets? A Maine correspondent sends to the Companion a dialogue between a little girl and her mother. It oc curred in church at the morning ser vice. The rector had just read, "On these two commandments hang al the law and the prophets." "Mamma, mamma," said little Ef- fy, in a loud whisper, "how man ' "Sh!" said the mother. "But mamma, just one question only one." "Well, softly," answered the moth er, seeing that the question must come. "How many prophets were there?" "I don't know." "Can't you guess?" "Were there three?" "Oh, yes. Sh!" "Ten?" "Yes. Don't ask another ques tion!" "Twenty?" continued Effy, her eyes distending. The mother was in despair, and answered, "Yes." "Then, mamma, tell me this " "Hush!" "Just this," and by this time the little girl's voice was quite audible, "how could twenty prophets all hang on two commandments?" There are thirty times as many heathen as there are evaneelical Christians. It follows, therefore, that each Christian is responsible for thirty heathen, and they are his share.
