THE DEAREST OftElft ALL THE EA'RTH.
Mother.
|a iim or language there Is no other Word that tells so clear a story Of life and love and living glory
Like that sweet word, So often heard And yet so little known Until into onr soul life grown, is that which names the precious one Who only knows her duty done When she has folded to her breast Her offspring for a longed for rest She who hsa fought the prize to win For a noble life and an entering in
Through the gates of heaven. By promise given, at yielded life for life, of love for love, For bringing blessings from above, Lifting her offerings np on high. Beady for them to do and die. ml this brief verse
Would fain rehearse The virtues and the modest worth Of the dearest .one in all the earth,
Mother. —Good Housekeeping.
HIS CHANCE IN LIFE.
Mias Veaois came from across the border line to look after some children who belonged to a lady until a regularly ordained nurse could come out.. The lady said Miss Vezsis was a bad, dirty nurse and inattentive. It never struck her that Miss Vezzis had her own life to lead and her own affairs to worry over, and that these affairs were the most important things in the world to Miss Vezzis. Very few mistresses admit this sort of reasoning. Miss Vezzis was as black as a boot, and to our standard of tastf hideously ugly. She wore cotton print gowns and bulged shoes, and when she lost her temper with the children she abused them in the language of the border line—which is part English, part Portuguese and part native. She was not attractive, but she had her pride, and she preferred being called "Miss Vezzis,"
Every Sunday she dressed herself wonderfully and went to see her mamma, who lived for the most part on an old cane chair in a greasy tussur silk dressing gown and a big rabbit warren of a house full of Vezzisses, Pereiras, Ribieras, Lisboas and Gonsalves.es, and a floating population of loafers, besides fragments of the day's bazaar, garlic, stale incense, clothes thrown on the floor, petticoats hung on strings for screens, old bottles, pewter crucifixes, dried immortelles, pariah puppies, plaster images of the Virgin, and hats without crowns. Miss Vezzis drew 20 rupees a month for acting as nurse, and she squabbled weekly with her mamma as to the percentage to be given toward housekeeping.
When the quarrel was over, Michele d'Cruze used to shamble across the low mud wall of the compound and make love to Miss Vezzis after the fashion of the border line, which is hedged about with much ceremony. Michele was a poor, sickly weed and very black, but he had his pride. He would not be seen smoking a huqa for anything, and he looked down on natives as only a man with seven-eighths native blood in his veins can. The Vezzis family had their pride too. They traced their descent from a mythical plate layer who had worked on the Sone bridge when railways were new in India, and they Valued their English origin. Michele was a telegraph signaler on 35 rupees a month. The fact that he was in government employ made Mrs. Vezzis lenient to the shortcomings of his ancestors.
There was a compromising legend— Dom Anna, the tailor, brought it from Poonani—that a black Jew of Cochin had once married into the D'Cruze family, while it was an open secret that an uncle of Mrs. d'Cruze was at that very time dokig menial work connected with cooking for a club in southern India I He sent Mrs. d'Cruze 7 rupees 8 annas a month, but she felt the disgrace to the family very keenly all the same.
However,.in the course of a few Sundays Mrs. Vezzis brought herself to overlook these blemishes and gave her consent to the marriage of her daughter with Michele, on condition that Michele should have at least 50 rupees a month to start married life upon. This wonderful prudence must have been a lingering touch of the mythical plate layer's Yorkshire blood, for across the border line people take a pride in marrying when they*please—not when they can.
Having regard to his departmental prospects, Miss Vezzis might as well have asked Michele to go away and come back with the moon in his pocket. But Michele was deeply in love with Miss Vezzis, and that helped him to endure. He accompanied Miss Vezzis to mass one Sunday, and after mass, walking home through the hot stale dust with her hand in his, he swore by several saints—whose names would not interest you—never to forget Miss Vezzis, and she swore by her honor and the saints—the oath runs rather curiously, "In nomine sanctissimae"—(whatever the name of the she saint is) and so forth, ending with a kiss on the forehead, a kiss on the left cheek, and a kiss on the mouth—never to forget Michele.
Next week Michele was transferred, and Miss Vezzis dropped tears upon the window sash of the "intermediate" compartment as he left the station.
If you look at the telegraph map of India, you will see along line skirting the coast from Backergunge to Madras. Michele was ordered to Tibasu, a little suboffice one-third down this line, to send messages on from Berhampur to Chicacola, and to think of Miss Vezzis and his chances of getting 50 rupees a month out of office hours. He had the noise of the bay of Bengal and a Bengali baboo for company—nothing more. He sent foolish letters, with crosses tucked inside the flaps of the envelopes, to Miss Vezzis.
When he had been at Tibasu for nearly three weeks, his chance came. Never forget that unless the outward and visible signs of our authority are always before a native he is as incapable as a child of understanding what authority means or where is the danger of disobeying it, Tibasu was a forgotten little place with a few Orissa Mohammedan* in it These, hearing nothing
of thft collector sahib for some time and heartily despising the Hindoo pubjudge, arranged to start a little Mohurrum riot cf their own. But the Hindoos turned oat and broke their heads. When, finding lawlessness pleasant, Hindoos and Mohammedans together raised an aimless sort of Donny brook just to see how far they could go. They looted each other's shdfst and paid off private grudges in the regular way. It was a nasty little riot, but not worth putting in the newspapers.
Michele was working in his office When he heard the sound that a man never forgets all his life—the "ah yah!" of an angry crowd. (When that sound drops about three tones and changes to a thick, droning ut, the man who hears it had better go away if he is alone.) The native polio* inspector ran in and told Michele that the town was in an uproar and coming to wreck the telegraph office. The baboo put on his cap and quietly dropped oat of the window, while the poiioe inspector, afraid, bat obeying the old noe instinct which reoogniaes a drop of white blood as far as it can be diluted, said, What orders does the sahib givef"
The sahib decided Michele. Though horribly frightened, he felt that for the hour he, the man with the Cochin Jew and the menial uncle in his pedigree, was the only representative of English authority in the place. Then he thought of Miss Vezzis and the 50 rupees, and took the situation on himself. There were seven native policemen in Tibasu, and four crazy smoothbore muskets among them. All the men were gray with fear, but not beyond leading. Michele dropped the key of the telegraph instrument and went out at the head of his army to meet the mob. As the shouting crew came round a corner of the road he dropped and fired, the men behind him loosing instinctively at the same time.
The whole crowd—curs to the backbone—yelled and ran, leaving one man dead and another dying in the road. Michele was sweating with fear, but he kept his weakness under, and went down into the town post the house where the subji&ge had barricaded himself. The streets were empty. Tibasu was more frightened than Michele, for the mob had been taken at the right time.
Michele returned to the telegraph office and sent a message to Chicacola asking for help. Before an answer came he received a deputation of the elders of Tibasu, telling him that the subjudge said his actions generally were "unconstitutional" and trying to bully him. But the heart of Michele d'Cruze was big and white in his breast because of his love for Miss Vezzis, the nursegirl and because he had tasted for the first time responsibility and success. Those two make an intoxicating drink, and have ruined more men than ever has whisky. Michele answered that the subjudge might say what he pleased, but until the assistant collector came the telegraph signaler was the government of India in Tibasu, and the elders of the town would be held accountable for further rioting. Then they bowed their heads and said, "Show mercy I" or words to that effect, and went back in great fear, each accusing the other of having begun the rioting.
Early in the dawn, after a night's patrol with his seven policemen, Michele went down the road, musket in hand, to meet the assistant collector who had riddcai in to quell Tibasu. But in the presence of this young Englishman Michele felt himself slipping back more and more into the native, and the tale of the Tibasu riots ended, with the strain on the teller, in a hysterical outburst of teiirs, bred by sorrow that he had killed a man, shame that he could not feel as uplifted as he had felt through the night, and childish anger that his tongue could not do justice to his great deeds. It was the white drop in Michele's veins dying out, though he did not know it.
But the Englishman understood, and after he had schooled those men of Tibasu and had conferred with the subjudge till that excellent official turned greon, ho found time to draft an official letter describing the conduct of Michele, which letter filtered through the proper channels, and ended in the transfer of Michele up country once more on the imperial salary of 66 rupees a month.
So lie and Miss Vezzis were married with great state and ancientry, and now there are several little D'Cruzes sprawling about the verandas of the central telegraph office.
But if the whole revenue of the department lie serves were to be his reward, Michele could never, never repeat what he did at Tibasu for the sake of Miss Vezzis the nursegirl. Which proves that, when a man does good work out of all proportion to his pay, in seven cases out of nine there is a woman at the back of the virtue.
The two exceptions must have suffered from sunstroke.—Rudyard Kipling.
Judges of the Olympic Games. The hell anode®, or judges, were ten in number, selected by lot from the ten tribes of Elis. They entered upon their office ten months before the festival. They were first schooled in the traditions and regulations of the games, then studied the capacities of the athletes while they were still in training. They had to decide upon the qualifications of the contestants, make up the programme of the games, supervise the preparation of the scene of contest, act as judges in the games, and distribute the prizes. It was a position of honor and distinction. They came to the contest clad in purple robes, and sat in a tribune opposite the finish of the races in the stadium or hippodroma They seem to have subdivided the function of judging, but at least three were present to judge in every contest. Their decisions were usually final, but an appeal might be carried to the Olympic senate. They were assisted in the execution of their commands by a large and well organized body of police.—Professor Allan Marquand in Century.
