A Mother's Jealousy
Dear Winifred Slack
del traveller wd my age la X My busi

part of th tlma. On June I, HI. I mar
roried. Previous to that I ba4 mad a
horn for my
mm
mother, who had
brought ma up after
my father had de
serted us.
Now, I want you
to appraclat th
fact that I realise
what my mother
had lone throuch
for me. and I In
tend to make her a
happy and content
aa Ilea In my power,
financially a a d
otherwise.
My wife .wanta
a horn for heraeir,
which, of eourae, la
quit natural. My
mother take the wrong view of th sub
ject by saying I rind her In th way and
want to get rid of her.
I even propose to take my wife away
and leav mother th home and aend her
money to live on, but ah tdollaea m and
ran not bear to hav m aeparated from
her. Th mult I that a feellnc haa
prune up between th two women folk
that puta ma In a three-cornered came.
Something must be don. If I leav home
with my wife. It will Just about kill
mother, aa eh la vetting along In yeara
and her health la not th beet. If I do not
my wife la going to leav without me.
Mother advise me to leav my wife,
which I certainly do not want to do, for
I love my wit dearly.
Tour In need of aom advice. F. H. E.

I am a commer- , mother out of your wife's home and keep
your wife out of your mother's home.
Wove to a different town if you can, a
different country if you must
Peso at aay price, Justice though It
kills the on who crtea out upon It. It
Is your duty not only t your wife and to
yourself to lake this stand, but It la your
duty to your mother.
She was a good friend to you, the beat
you ever had. Well, be a good friend to
her now. Tak th best car of her as
long a ah live, but that la not enough.
She la Jn danger now, la danger of
cruel hat which la creeping Into her
heart and threatening her very reseea.
You must help her stamp It out, and
there's only on way to do that, move,
and move now. e
Your mother won't die if you leav her.
You'll die If yon atay with her.
Every time you are flv minute lat
to dinner she'll conjure something against
"her," and every time you want to sit
and look Into the fire In peace she'll
make a scene about "that woman."
There's no Jealousy so dreadful aa the
Jealousy of a mother for her eon.
Many women go erasy from just this
on thing alone. Don't lat your mother
go craay. Keep her sane by being sue
yourself, sane. Just reasonable, kind. ,
That's the way t help your wife, t
help yourself, and to help your mother.
Try Ik . . ,. .. ,
Horace, the Jig is Up
Well friend, you certainly are In trouble,
end deep trouble at that.
How shall you get out of It? You are
not going to get out of It aa long as
those two women live and hate each
other for loving you.
What ran you do? Tour simple, honest,
decent, eren-heAded duty. That's all,
and then make th best of II.
Give the woman you have married what
he has the right to ask. what every hon
est woman and good wife hss a right to
wish for horn of her own. Tell your
mother you are going to do that and ask
her to be decent about It. Tell her you
are going to do It any way. and you
vould Ilka to have her mak up her
mind to It. and make up her mind now.
Of course, you will provide for her ac
cording to your means, but keep yom
Dynamite la raralsg.
Like fire, dynamite, though a merciless
master, may be made a good servant, aa
some ere proving who are applying It to
th peacewul pursuits of agriculture. A
man tn Bessemer, Ala., last year em
ployed It to break np the soil on a por
tion of hla cotton plantation and raised
four and a half bale on land that had
befor never produced more than on
bale, and he believe that even this yield
may be Increased. Much haa been claimed
for this method In other section also.
It uncover force of nutrition that the
plow cannot reach, and It I va pre
dicted that In time dynamite will sup
plant this plow In penetrating to the
real productive Ufa of th ground.

Votes for Children
By CHESTER FIRKINS.
Wo want to vote. We're here to put our bid In,
For Children's Rights, and we will get 'em, too,
This modern world' no place to be a kid In,
When older folk can tell us what to do.
If we are poor, we spend our days at labor;
If rich, our parted parents make us roam
Around the earth, or lend us to some neighbor
And yet you say the Child's place is the Home.
II
a
Show us a home we never even saw one
Sorely it's not this place you call a flat.
Or. if It is, we certainly can't draw one.
For children aren't allowed in lairs like that.
Surely it isn't Tommy Kelly's attic.
Nor Gladys Vanderaator's palace hall.
Perhaps you think this country's democratic,
But It's an elderocracv, that's all.
We have the testimony of the sages
That childish characters are good and sweet.
This may have been the truth In other ages.
But not since yon have thrust us on the street.
We're wise as any voter in the nation;
Onr sins are visited upon each dad
Back to the sixth and seventh generation .
Why can't we vote like you? We're Just as bad.
You've taken from us all our fond illusions.
We scorn the fairies and old Santa's pack.
Our games are "lacerations and contusions,"
Our playgrounds are the street and railroad track.
We want to vote like mommers and like poppers.
But here comes the polices we must be gone.
Take up the march, though. We'll defy the coppers.
Ballots for Babies' Uaaard, go-carts, on!

Since Eve tint decked herself in leaves
And made a mirror of a brook,
Her daughters all crave gorgeous clothes
If just "to see how they would look."
So when you see a girl's tired eyes
Light up in looking at a hat,
It's not all envy prompts her gaze,
But something deeper far than that.
James Oglethorpe
Ily REV. THOMAS & CRKOORT.
hraary It, 1TSS.
It was Kl ars ag today February U,
lTIS-that James Ogirsthorae and hla colo
nials ere led the Tamacraw muffs on the
Savannah river and hrgan laying the
foundations of th stsl of Georgia.
Th "8 metre
state" of the south
had Its origin In the
noblest linpulees
that swell the hu
man heart. 1 1
founder, the ervoni
pl lined and philan
thropic Oglethorpe,
witnessing about
him In the old
world the In
humanity of 'man
to man, seeing th
prisons full of Im
pecunious debtors.
and th highways thronged with the vic
tim of retlgtoue fanaticism and spite,
resolved that he would find In th new
word aa asylum for th unfortunate ones.
where they ehould b no mora oppressed
by th rich or dragooned by the bigoted.
Th colony started out beautifully. Th
men who had been pining in Engiisa
jells because they could sot pay the el
ections of their hard-hearted creditors.
and the men who. In Auetrta and Oar
many, had been made to feel th terrors
of religious faaaOdsm. war glsd to be
free, and they wen only to willing te
accept th founder's will that there
aheuht be no slavery la Georgia. Th
Institution got a foothold much later on.
M
but It a not th fault of th original
colonial a
Beautiful, too, were th Initial rela
tionship between the colonists and th
red men. Old Te-me-chl-cht. th chief
of the surrounding Indiana, presinUng ;
Oglrihorp with a buffalo akin erna-i
mented with the picture ef an eagle, said,
lo him: "I give you this, which ft
want you to accept. Th eagle mean,
speed and the buffalo strength- The
English are swift aa th bird and etrenr
th beast autre. Ilk th one, they flew
over the area to th uttermost parts f
th earth, and. Uk th ether, they rt
trong and nothing can reelat then. Th
feathers of th eagle are soft and mean
love, the buffalo sals Is warm and mean
protection. Then I hop th Kagltsh wilt'
lor aad protect eur little famines.":
Alas! th time was to com when the
whit iren waa t forget Ts-mo-ehl-chlV
sreaant and the spirit with which It was
made.
In 1741 Oglethorpe left Georgia fsrevefr
after having given It the best that thenar
was la Ms head and heart for tan years.
In 1IU Oeorala became a royal provtoc,
sad remained suck till the brassing
of th revolution ht 1771, through which
h helped her sister colonies te fight'
their way to victory, whea she took ha
place among th Mold thirteen" free an
Independent nates. . ,
Oeorgla started all right, and alter aom
mlstakea and considers bl Buffering she
Is sll right again. Her fao la toward ttm
anrta and her future la rosy with th
promise of which her founder
dreamed.
The Glory of the Heavens
By GARRET P, BERVIB&
How many readers of The Bra hav
thought during th bright nights that
have recently revealed the tarry vault
In all Us hlemsl speador to take a look
at the anlveree around us? How many
hav seen Rlrlus,
the ancient star
of iha Nile, flam
ing Ilka a diamond
on fire, or Orion
striding, with up
lifted shield and
club, arrosa the star
dust to meet tha
charge of the gi
gantic hull, Taurus,
with his "golden
borne" entangled In
the Milky Way, and
th gorgeou
Pleladee, hanging
Ilk a bandeiilla
on hla shoulder?
How many he felt
the charm of the
three sinter gems that Orion bears In his
wonderful hell, and whose namea alone
are an Incantation Alnlta, Alntlam and
Jilniaaa?
In these February evenings the Char
ioteer ride over the aenlth, carrying on
his arm the dauilng goat-Mar, Capella,
and the atarrv throngs of his whip
stream out Inte strlnge of glittering
Jewels flung upon the wind. Eastward
of Ih Charioteer, elde bv side, march
Castor and Pollui. aa they marched to
the rescue of Rome, when Aulus, the dic
tator, cried out to his fleeing men:
Charge for the hearth of Vesta! !
Charae for the golden shield!
Let no men stop lo plunder.
But slay, end slay, and slay!
Th gods who lire forever
Are on our side today!
Behind the Twin Brethren fleams the
mystical star-banner of Cancer, and away
over In the east Regulus, th star f
kings, Vise with tha Lion, Straight upl

bering step, th great bear. Urea Majw,

Like peal of thunder from unclouded sky
A sudden neighing rolls and echoee nlga.
Her eyes unclose: horror and Joy are ene.
