"If I were hanged on the highest hill,
Mother o'mine, 0 mother o'mine,
I know whose love would follow me
, still, . V
Mother o'mine, 0, mother o'mine."
This little poem of Kiplings comes
.way across the sea to us out of the
mud and dreariness of the trenches
for it appears on the first page of a
little booklet dedicated to , Mother's
Day and printed by the Young Men's
Christian association for the boys so
many thousand miles away from
home, j
On the cover is a picture of the
typical mother, her gray hair softly
parted,-her black dress" relieved by a
little white at the throat and in her
hands, her unfinished knitting. Sit
ting at her feet, is "her boy," in the
khaki of his country, his trench hat
in his hand, He seems to be receiv
ing her last blessing-before leaving
to do his part in the great struggle,
. but, unlike the mothers of old, she is
not ; buckling on his sword, but.
through the influence of her parting
words is encasing him in the armourl
of honor and love of God and his
fellow-men.-
Turning the pages of the little book
Van Dyke's prayer for mother's birth
day,' a testimonial to all the mothers
the world over and best of all, a
letter from a real mother in her own
handwriting is found.
It is all so real, the ink seems
hardly dry. ' All the little quirks of
-the pen, with a word inserted here
and there,, full of the little personal
things of exery day life and last of
all her admonitions to live up to his
ideals no matter what; comes, to put
the white flag of honor and truth
even before the starry banner to
which he has pledged his life.
- "But I know you will come back
to me " is the (closing sentence of
the little mothery missive showing
clearly that this one hope buoys her
tip through the long months of wait
ing. 1 The little Mother's day book, which
must have brought so much comfort
to many boys in France is sent to
Omaha by Harry A. Sigwart, of the
13th Railway Engineers, who now
gives his address as "soirfWhere in
France." Young Sigwart is the son
of Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Sigwart.

Why do they patronize your com
petitor's hotel instead of yours?
In the first place, people dislike to await their turn
where there is an insufficient number of bathrooms.
In the second place, it is growing more and more
difficult to attract patrons to a hotel with out-of-date,
unsanitary and untidy boking plumbing fixture
Not only is your competitor getting the business,
but he"$ getting more money for his rooms. His
investment in modem plumbing equipment is being
returned to him over and over again.
Why let him force you out of business) With mod
ern sanitary bathroom fixtures you can have your
hare of larger and more profitable patronage and,
through it, a quick return of the entire cost of
replacement.
