A MOTHER SONG. Mother, O mother! forever I cry for you. Sing the old song I may never for get Even in slumber I murmur and sigh for you Mother, O mother, Sing low "Little brother, Sleep, for thy mother bends over they yet." Mother, O mother! the years are so lonely. Filled but with weariness, doubt and regret. Can't you come back to me for tonight only. Mother, my mother, And sing "Little brother, Sleep, for thy mother bends over thee yet." Mother, O mother; of old I had never One wish denied me nor trouble to fret; Now must I cry out all vainly forever Mother, sweet mother, O sing "Little brother. Sleep, for thy mother bends over thee yet." Mother, O mother! must longing and sorrow Leave me in darkness, with eyes ever wet, And never the hope of a meeting tomorrow ? Answer me, mother, And sing "Little brother. Sleep, for thy mother bends over thee yet." James Whitcomb, Riley, in Rhymes of Childhood. WOMAN AND MARRIAGE. The average woman soon realizes that it is her place to make marriage desirable to the average man. No tamer of wild animals ever studied his subject as woman studies man. And suddenly she discovers that she is as skilled in the love game as if she had played It all her life. There float up to the Burface of her consciousness all the instincts of the 'generations before) her who have survived or perished according to the skill with which they have played the same game. The average man is so flagrant a novice at it that he is distanced from the start. He believes, . for instance that it is governed by rules; but the average woman has learned to beat the rules of a husband in different ways. She can hint so subtly, suggest so cunningly, that she chooses for the average man while he still thinks he is choosing for himself. And yet with all this instinctive finesse, her game must still be a waiting one. She must wait for him to ask her to a dance. At the dance she must wait for partners. She must wait for him to propose even if it does happen to be "leap year." "The trouble with girls is," complains the average man, "if you go to call on them regularly they think yon want to marry them." Well may be some of them do, but if you happen to be calling on the business woman, don't get so conceited. Consider how extraordinary difficult and delicate a course the average woman must steer. She should under , no circumstances assume that a man is in love with her. n regard to the man with whom she has fallen in love with she must school herself thus: "Of course he is not in love with me, although it seems as if he were. Anyway I must treat him as if he were not. And of course I'm. not In love with him. He isn't my ideal at all. But if he doeB propose, which isn't at all probable, I shall know that I have been in love with him all the time. If he does not propose, of course I have never, never given him a second thought."

Invitations reading as follows were received today: The President and the Board of Trustees of the Drexel Institute of Art Science and Industry request the honor of your presence at the Nineteeth Annual Commencement Tuesday morning, June Sixth Nineteen Hundred and Twelve at eleven o'clock The Auditorium.

Miss X., a snake charmer well known among show people, firmly believed that one of her snakes was really fond of her. She. could do anything with it fondle It, kiss and caress it. She grew so fond of it that at last she even let it sleep on her bed, to the great disgust of the othert performers In the show. She would eat her meals with this horrible thing coiled around her neck, and once, in very warm weather, she took it under her coat into the woods with her and let it amuse itself by crawling over the ground. She followed it about and kept a most careful watch over it (it was a valuable performer), but it showed no disposition to go off into the woods, as she feared it might, but came back to her and coiled round her as usual. She was warned several times that the reptile was very dangerous, but she grew more and more reckless, and the snake appeared to become more and more attached to her. And then one day without any warning, directly after a performance when she was caressing it in her own room, the snake suddenly threw back its head, looked at her steadily. and with lightning-like swiftness struck her between the eyes, leaving two tiny punctures. She hastily uncoiled it and thrust it into its box. but she died within half an hour. McClure's Magazine. NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT.

Woman Artist to Complete Work of Edwin Abbey. MISS VIOLET OAKLKT. It has come as a surprise to many of the devoted admirers of the late Edwin Abbey to hear that the unfinished work of this master artist is to be taken up by a woman, and a woman who is still to be counted young. But all those who hare followed the career of Miss Violet Oakley, the young woman in question, agree that the choice is a worthy one and that no one ava liable could better carry out the spirit and the form of Abbey's paintings in the Pennsylvania capitol. Miss Oakley has already done some notable work on the capitol In Harrisburg, as she was commissioned as one of the mural artists nearly ten years ago, and her series in the governor's room, represeating the early history of the state of Pennsylvania, has proved

OBITUARY In memory of Maud Hamilton N'Jea. Born Feb. 5. 1890. married to Harry C. Niles July 5, 1911. Died May 20. 1912. As the white blossom of the waterlily unfolding In the breexe stirs the surface of the lake into ever widening ripples, so the pure life of this noble woman in its development was constantly extending its circle of usefulness, helpfulness and charm. As a child her talent for music marked her as one who could minister most acceptably in both Joy and sorrow. The unselfish use of her beautiful gift of song continued through her school life, her time and skill as a pianist being also always at the service of her teachers and school associates. Her musirales for them make up some of the happiest memories of her classmates, and of her pupils. Of a sincere religious nature she found deep pleasure In all church work. As a soloist for the Sunday school, as an accompanist for its choruses and as a member of the church choir she gave herself untiringly. Most of all in teaching children the lessons of the Bible and in training them to lift up their voices in praise was her work far reaching and inspiring. Beside her many friends she leaves her husband, her child., her mother and her brother to mourn her loss, to revere her character and to hold as their most sacred possession the memory of her sweet life so wholly given to the service of others. for less than 25c; an 25c; c ?at - iir t1 All Silk Hose, for 25c Ladies' Silk Boot, Ol 1 '
