THE BRAVE3T BATTLE. The bravest battle that ever was fought; Shall I tell you where and when?. On the maps of the world you will find it not; It was fought by the mothers of men. Nay, not with cannon or battle shot. With sword or braver pen; Nay, not with eloquent word or thought, From mouths of wonderful men. But deep in a woman's walled-up heart Of woman that would not yield. But patiently, silently bore her part Lo! there is that battlefield. No marshaling troops, no bivouac song; No banners to gleam and wave; And oh! these battles they last so long From babyhood to the grave! Yet, faithful still as a bridge of stars, She fights in her walled-up town Fights on and on in the endless wars, Then silent, unseen goes down. Joacquin Miller.

MOTHERS' DAY. Sunday is "Mothers' Day" and will be celebrated throughout the city. White carnations will be worn for mothers dead and gaily colored blossoms for those living. The above poem is printed as emblematic of the day. Tie second Sunday in May was selected as "Mothers Day" because the mother of Miss Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia, died on that day, six years ago. Miss Jarvis is said to be the founder of the custom of observing annually "Mothers' Day."

HANDKERCHIEF SHOWER. An ante-nuptial event beautiful in all its appointments and adding much to the many social events scheduled for the week-end was the pretty handkerchief shower given this afternoon by Miss Lucy Smyser, at her spacious home in North Fifteenth street, when she took this means of extending courtesy to Miss Helen Jameson, a brideelect. The Smyser home was attractively arranged throughout with garden flowers and ferns. Bridge was played at three tables. There was a guest favor for Miss Jameson as well as other favors for the fortunate ones. After the game the company assembled In the dining room where an elegant luncheon in courses was served. The room had been transformed into a veritable bower by the means of lilacs and irises. From the chandelier and banging directly over the table was a pretty gaily tinted Japanese parasol. The handkerchiefs, done up in dainty . packages, were fastened about the parasol. When a string was pulled at the appointed time by the hostess, the bride-elect was showered with numerous packages. The idea was quite novel and occasioned much pleasure. The place cards were dainty hand painted designs. Lilacs were used in appointing the table. Covers were laid for Miss Arline Shreeve, Mi Elaine Jones, Miss Mabel Hasemeier, Miss Charlotte Allison, Mrs. Elmer Iserman, Mrs. Karl Allison, Miss 'Vivian King, Miss Ruth Marl a tt, Miss Ruth Friedgen, Miss Helen Jameson, Miss Viola WickemeyMrs. Charles Williamson, Miss Smyser and Mrs. John Smyser.
