WHITAKER \3233SSX MOTHER LOVE TOO STRONG MU < i ' OiscceUe* Met Atwtyt In *vldenc? Whan Her Offspring U the Sub ^ J*ct of Her Thouaht*. It Is ull very\woll for a mother to bo proud ot her offspring. That la qu'te natural aiul comprehensible. llut there 1m a limit and -tow mothers know enough to stop there when they begin to talk about their children. When wHl mothers learn a little dis cretion and discrimination? They are quite willing to talk about tjtelr chil dren, by the hour, and the man or wonlun who will 1 1 stmt the longest Is the most popular in the maternal heart. There are a few exceptions, of course. Hut the woman who Is sen sible about her cldld. Judging his faults and fallings clearly, and seeing his good points in the proper perspec tive, Is rare Indeed. The average moth er loses ull sense of proi>ortlnu when she Judges her own offspring. Her love blinds her eyes to his faults, while his good points are enormously exagger ated. Unfortunately, the mother Is always the lust to realize that her child Is not the greatest genius under the skies. If she has brought her son up to be a pianist or her daughter to bo a singer, others may criticize as they will, her Judgment never wavers. Other pianists and other singers may give adverse criticism of her children's ability, but the more they soy the more firmly con vinced the mother becomes that nil the others are Just Jealous of her oflf sprlngs's talent. No one would want to disturb that beautiful faith, mothers ; no one would care to disturb -or lessen one Jot of your love for and perfect confidence in your offspring. But do try to curb your desire to tell others about your children's talents and virtues. If your child has a talent for draw ing, writing, playing or singing, en courage him In It, by all menus, but do not blind your eyes to his faults. If others criticize, do not lay It down to Jealousy, but weigh the criticism and use It for what it is worth. Do not, as so many mothers do, think yoxirself your child's severest critic, while nil the time you are as blind as a bat ? to his faults. If Is hard to realize that others are not Interested In the things that Inter est us most. Hut do try, mothers, to remember that your children are only absorbingly Interesting to you. Do -not let your Ttraternfil pride run away with your good sense. ? Pittsburgh Dis patch. **~ Fortune In Kllckele. A great fortune of over $8,1)00,000 awaits the persons who corner the live-cent pieces of the country. This stupendous amount represents the dlf-j ference between the face value stamped on the humble "nickel" by Uncle Snm and the real value of the coins today as uietal. The European war bus brought about this Increa:sd value, which maj; be changed by act of congress when It becomes generally known that the value set by the gov ernment on the- small roliur ts aboiiT 16 per cent below their present real worth. Among the amnzing possibili ties connected with this discovery Is the fact that the German submarine Deutschland, here in search of a cargo of nlclcel and rubber needed by the kaiser's government, could be loaded to the waterline with five-cent pieces, which could be smelted or refined into nickel and copper, also high in price i because of the abnormal demand. Ac cording to the best figures obtainable, the cost of refining a, pound of nickels would be from 4 to 6 cents. joy of the Simple Life. In order to teach men how to be sat-* isfled, It Is necessary fully to under stand the art, and Joy of humble life ? this, at present, of all arts or sciences being the one most needing study. Humble life ? that is to say, proposing to itself no future exaltation, bu.t only a sweet continuance; not excluding the Idea of foresight, but wholly of fore-sorrow, and taking no troublous thought for coming days; so, also, -not excluding the Idea of Providence, or provision, but wholly of accumulation ? the life of domestic afTectlon and do mestic peace, full of sensitiveness to all elements of costliness and kind pleasures ? therefore, chiefly to the loveliness of the natural world. ?

Surrogate Fowler tn "New York city made this ruling in de ciding against the heirs of Col. Francis L. Lelaud, who are trying to oust Dr. Timothy L. Cheesmnn as executor. Sur rogate Fowler said : "Suppose that one had nomfhated Caesar as his executor. He is admit ted to have been the greatest genius of all the world, yet he was an epileptic.

Pearson's Woekly. EXPERT PROOF IS EXPENSIVE 8tr*et Railway in Massachusetts Pays Experts a Largs Sum to Boost FiYSi. The Bay State Street railway has paid about $120,000 to date for the val uation report on which the road bases Its plea for six-cent fares, and the val uation expert is still drawing $60 a day for testifying before the public service commission, it has developed, during tho continued cross-examina tion of Robert M. Feustel, the $60-a day export, himself, remarks the Bos ton Post. Thus, If tho road wins its plea, it will have to collect 2,000,000 six-cent* fares from patrons In the eighty'Odd cities and towns which it servos to secure an amount equal to the expert's fees. And If the Bay State company should lose its plea, it "will require 2,400,000 nickel fares to make up the amount it has paid the expert for preparing a valuation report on which the road re lics to prove its claim that a five-cent fare does not provide enough revenue by $1,615,165 a year, the sum which Feustel estimates is needed and wfcich he says a six-cent fare would provide.
