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

**~ 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.

In order to teach men how to be sat-*

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

all elements of costliness and kind

.Epilepsy does not disqualify a Qiao
from serving as the executor of a $5,

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

all the world, yet he was an epileptic.
Who of us would not prefer Caesar for

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.
