Wheal Lerlaa; Mothers Vrsw Seiniah "It if wben children reach maturi ty that tbe supreme test of parental love comes," writes Edward W Bok, discussing tbe hcmeleaving of children at time of marriage, in tbe May Ladies' Home Journal. "All through infancy and early years tbe children are more or less care. And then, just aa tbe parents feel reliev ed from cares add aniietiet, and are beginning to enjoy the companion ship of their children in tbe sereae and complacent way which 'grown ups' have, there comes a flattering of the wings, a remote suggestion of flight. Tbe eon is no less his mother's boy than he has been and ever will be. But be is and who realn-s it so quickly as a mother- in a new and very natural sense, another woman's hero; and that woman a girl.

And after the young birds have taken fight the parents wonder if tometime they do not gnevj in their new life. But some fine morn ing a clearer vision is given them, and they realiz tbat, after all, their obildren are only playing tbe same role which tbey plajed a few years before. It is a magnificent quali'y in parents wben tbey so prepare themselves tbat tbey can meet this inevitable time with the proier spirit wben, in otter words parental love can get tne better of selfis' ness."
