'.Mother lM'l jut yoi? ii-. hlic tliil when you khw her, and better tliiin ever," mud a young man in answer Ut tuy (piest'ioii us to (lie welfare, of Ins mollier. It 1 tii I been many vein s since I Imd looked into tluit mother's face, for we lnul (1 rifted in different directions, but I reitieinbered lier us a vonii'' mother with a family of little children, and I hail noted her sweet devotion to their inter ests, and her patient ways in her daily ministration to them in the home. I had not seen this motli er's bov since he was her "little cavalie'r" in a fur-off town in the West. I had congratulated her on having it boy so thoughtful of the little things that make a mother's daily routine so much happier and lighter. I wusghid to find that with the growth into manhood he bud still kept up that lienutiful way of thinking all the while of something to help anil cheer mother. "1 see that mother tret a vaca tion every year before I lake mine," he added, with n bright smile on his face. " I Ins year she has been KuM to viit her old home and the friends she knew w hen she was a girl, find it lilts done her lots of good." " 1 lit? same mot her s hoy as ever," 1 said. "What a blessing you must lie to her ! She has thanked (iod very often forgiv ing her such a son, 1 know." "I've thanked (!od many a time for giving me such a mother," he rejoined. "It is a great blessing for a l)oy to have a good mother such us 1 have, and 1 want to do all I can for her, because she has done so much for inc." "That is the secret of her look ing so young and being better than ever," I thought. There are many, many children in the world, mid moist of them love their mother very dearly, with out doubt, but they are not thoughtful of them. They take it as a matter of course that mother should do for them even if she is weary, and they often try her and vex her in many ways instead of malting the days of her toil anil care easier and happier for her. My cultivating this lcautifu characteristic in childhood of be ing thoughtful of mother, the boy will not neglect his mother when he goes out into the world to makea place for himself. Tin? interests of mother will always be in his mind, lie will not forget the little attentions that tnaku her so Imppy, or the small gifts that come just at an opjMirtune time. "I wish 1 had done so and so for mother, but I never thought of it," said a young man after his mother had passed away. Ho loved his mother, but In? was not thoughtful of her un til it was too lute. The mother craves the love and attention of her boys, even if they have grown to manhood to her they are her very own just as surely as w hen they were little children in the home nest. Susan I'erry.in Christian Work. His Own Business. "If a man wants to drink whis key, that is his business," says the saloon ajKtlogi.st. Let's see. When Mob Poland and Coon Parker were drinking in Heflin, Ala., hist Saturday night, ami in their spree ran a cur of the Southern railroad oil the switch and out on the main track down the grade, till it stopped on a trestle, it became the Southern railroads "busi ness." And when a loaded freight train came along and rushed into the car, causing a 1ik1,u wreck, destroying much valuable mer chandise, it became the business of a great many merchants iintl shippers, as well as the railroads. And when three tlead Ixnlies were dug out from under the wreck, it Ix'cume the business of some wives and orphans. And when the taxpayers are called U)toti to snpixirt the fami lies w hose natural providers have thus been suddenly taken away, it will Ix't'ome the business of several other people. One man's drinking often be comes the business of several hundreds or thousands of eop!e, and the man who cannot perceive this fact ought to be sent at once toau institution for the education if the feeble-minded.

In the eourro of hia remarks he declared that "the printing ollice is a school, college aud univetsity for the brightest intellect, of every age," aud added : "A newspaper ollice is a school of unseltiHunet. No othel elans serves a community bo well and tto otten for so little pay, either in cindi or appreciation, hvery day and night tho now.paper ia doing free work for the general betterment ot the community. If a lawyer was called upon by tho city authorities to do lor tho city tho same amount and no more vbluablo writing than that which every newsnanor does free every day the charge would he $50 or more, if the newspapers were to cease for a wcck it would be as dark anJ lonesome as if the pall of an eclipoo covered ua, and Wil mington would ho to the onbude world practically as though she were not." Dr. Illackwell ia right. The news paper ranks next to the pulpit and school as an educational and moral power. Conscious of this resp msi bility, makers of newspapers, as a rule, try to discharge it for the benefit and uplifting ot their readers. It too often iiappens, however, that the pulpit is in antagonism to the press, nd the newspaper is made a favorite subject for moralizing on the part of the minister, l'ut it is gratifying to rind one here and there, like Dr. lilackwell, who is disposed to give credit whore credit is duo.

Those : mentally deranged are sent there I from all over the continent, tho idea being that the freedom given in this town, which lives on lunatic-, will ' help to cure tho patients. Vet the ' euro ia founded on an improbable ! icgend. A king s daughter having during tho middle ages eloped to this city with a forbidden lover, was ; roiiowed oy nor lather, wtio, cnanc ! ing to meet her at a street corner, ' promptly cut off her head. Two : lunatics passing at tho time were so shocked by this act that they re j goned their reason, and thereby tho ' town .of its livelihood. i Tho town of Gibraltar, owing to ! its position in regard to Spain, has ' practically been in a s'ato of siego j for over two centuries. At sunset ! two drawbridge, are raised, and at sunrise they are again let down to tho tnno of tho reveille. The whole town is kept under strict military rule, none but Knglishmen being allowed to enter without a pass and none but residents under any con ditions being allowed to sleep with in tho town. There is a large city in northern China whoso inhabitants, number ing many thousands, never .peak to one another, eat or drink. It is a city of gravi s.

This town, which hns a population of nearly one thousand, was started by a de serter from tho British navy, ono John Loud, and hia descendants to day arc the aristocracy. It speaks well tor this town that no murder has ever licen committed there, and only onco have the inhabitants licen called on to sottlo a local dispute, and then the evidence was so strong for both parties that to restore peace it was decided that both wore in the wrong, and if they did no' keep the !eaeo they would havo to give up their right to li vo in laud's Town. Strawberries in Alaska. Secretary Wilson has received a most interesting letter from the Sis ters of St. Ann, who are conducting a mission school in Alaska, giving an account of their snccoes in rais ing various kinds of vegetables and table delicacies in that arctic region. These good women have established a littlo school on the Vukon, aliout 1,500 miles from its mouth, and their experiments show that it is possible to grow turnips, radinhca and even str&wlicrries in that territory. They state that they began their hotbed work as early as April 2oth, and sowed radishes and turnips in tho otcn ground the second week in May. The first potatoes were plant ed May lti:h. May '2nth, 500 cab bage and cauliflower plaQts were transplanted, and two days later a snowstorm descended on them, but they wero not harmed, as they wore of a stnrdy character. Not a drop of rain fell until tho middle cf July, whon a long spell of cold, rainy weather set in. In spite of these drawbacks tho crop thrived. After giving away a largo part of the veg etables, tho sistcis harvested 250 bushels of potatoes, 500 heads of cabbage, 500 bushels of turnips and a few bushels of carrots. Straw berry plants were set out and giew astonishingly well, but neatly the entire crop of berries was destroyed by mice. Brooklyn Ktglo. Wafers $100,000 on Bryan.

In the I.'idiea' Home Journal fot April the editor, Mr. Kdwsrd Bok, has a well written article on "The Kane With Which we M irry." This artielo is well written, ia sir ng ;md cle:ir and deals with the qu' stio-i ol marriage and divorce in an able manner, which deserve, the careful reading and cousiderttioii of thou sands of thoughtful persons. Ho deplores the ease with which the rile of marriage i obtained in America, and shows clearly how this great fault of our nation is the cause of much of the utihappiness of the home life in America and is the basis as well of the astonishingly large unmoor of divorctw which are secured hero every year, lie de plores this large divorce list, but wio!y return k that we as a nation cannot exa cf a better record in thi respect until there is n reformation elluctud in the l.iw which inula the msrri.ige of any two people sn easi ly obtained. Ho very appropriate ly remark, that it is useless to at tempt to strengthen the law agiiiist divoiee which ho designate as the "hack door" .' lor g as the "front door," marriage, which m the, di vorco possible, is so weak. Mr. Bok is light. The rile of mairingc is too lightly regarded in Alneri 'a, and is too easily secured. If the law in this conueciion wcro strengthened as it should he there would be no marriage without li. cense aud witnesses, there would be no elopements h gali.ed, there would be no marriage poaible wht-re support could not ho girir-iiitecd, and consequently there would he more happy homes, lee. poverty, less crime and fewer divorces. Sure ly A rncrica as a nation r eeds m h a reformation. Mr. Bok pleads for the return to the custom of announcing iho mur ringr? of all persons two weeks. or me month before the ditto set tor the ceremony. This would no doubt call forth much criticism at liri-t from some people, hut thn sensilw mind can but recogni'i the wisdom "I such 11 custom. Marriage is the most serious and s'tcred compact into which two persons can enter, and it is not possible for oither to he too careful in m iking tho choice, for nfe ci mpanionship, and this public announcement made smno wicke previous would in many it erances save a hto time ot unl-appmes America t;eeda this reformation - Church and State.

Among hundreds of children with whom tho building was etow h-ii was one little girl, among the best in the school, who, through a!! tin frightful scone, maintained entire composure. 1 he color, indeed, for sook her chocks : her lips quivered, the tears etood in her eyes, hut she moved not. Alter order had been restored and her companions had been brought back to their places, the question was asked how she came to sit so still, without appar ent alann, when everybody elso was in such a fright, "My father,' said 6he, "is a fireman, and knows wh' to do in such a case, and b t-Jd me if there waa an alarm of tiro in the school I must sit still."
