Daniel 12:10. A Mother's Will An unusual will was recently filed for probate in New York City in which a clergyman's widow, Mrs. Lydia Hard ing Hammond bequeaths not riches but a legacy of love to her children, who are urged to bury her cheaply, to wear no mourning and" to think of her as living happily in heaven with their father. The will and letter accompanying is a sermon in itself. It reads in part: Don't keep anything just because It was mine; they are just things and worn and shabby at that; love doeau't need euch things for remembrance. I won't be separated from any of you, dear children. I'll just be closer to God and will understand better the ways la which prayer and faith can open ways through which God can help you and I'll bo able at least to love you with all my heart and without anything in that love that will make you feel as if I wanted to control you or bother you. Bury my body as cheaply aa you can and forget It. Don't wear mourning. And think of me as alive, alive beyojid your fartheat thought, and near, and loving you, and well at last, far as the winds of heaven and learning more and more the things I want to know and growing more toward what God wants me to become. Love one another. Hold fast to that whether you understand one another or not, and remember nothing really matters except being kind to one another and to all the world aa far as you can reacb. Who would not be richer with inheritance like this than much fine gold? And yet what mother docs not leave her children just such a legacy? It is part of mother love, the priceless heritage of us all. There is, . In all this cold and hollow world, no fount Of deep, strong deathless love, save that within A mother's heart.

I knew tiat Frank Harrison would never itee forty -five igain. Virginia laughed, and tried des perately to cover wh'nt she thought wts a Flip on my pait. "He' old for forty," she said. "A man of forty is very young nowadays. You'll still feel young when you're forty, won't you, Frank?" Brazen flattery! I'd never have dared try it even If I wanted to. Sometime I wondor how our moth or were brought up they do thing that we wouldn't even at tempt and get away with them. He was pleaped at that, and the atmosphere In our box became a bit less ten I oet back, flirting my hi feather fan, and waltea for another opening. By the end of the evening Frank was looking nt me as if he'd thought I was a kitten and found me a User cat. His face showed Jutt how bewildered he was. And Virginia was on the verge of tears. ?he hal tried and tried to take the edse off my remarks. Finally he talked moat of the time with birr, which wan exactly what I wi-.ntcd. I complained of having a head ache wlnn we got haine, knowing that Virginia would never mike m stay up while nhe scolded me If ehe thousat I di lu't feel well.

After all. he might be hav:ng a perfectly gorgeous tin e in the nop Ics flirting with Claire Eaton, but it was just as well to remind him of my existence with a few pin pricks. I concealed them in hor.ej ed words, 'idded a postscript giving my love to Claire, and turned out tho light only to cry myself to sleep. It hart been a perfectly success ful day. if I wis to think of my nclf as others thought of me. A very rich man had askd me to be his wife. A very attractive but less wealthy one had all but toss ed his broken heirt it. to my crab nnat cocktail at luncheon. I hart been givon a gold mcs'a hag with an emerald clasp. I had gone to the C'pera as people who don't know about It think it must be fun to go, nnd done a good deed with a great deal of p.ivale enjoy ment. But t wasn't hapny. I wanted my husband not Jim as he was, but the Jim of our honeymoon, the Jim I hal hope! he was go lng to be. Virginia came into my rconV'the t'Cxt morning while I was having breakfast. Her face was so white pnd drawn that It frightened me, "Nancy, you've got lo help mc!' eshe said. "I'm in e-eat trouble. Of course I'll help you," I un- . swored. "But don't let It scare you. , The worat rrt of trouble is takinr, it perl us'.y." Not when it's money trouble, he answered. "And that's what is worrying me. I thougat I saw a chance to make a lot of money. ind bjught om stock on a mar- gin. Now t's gone nuw, & haven't money uiUkJj-W5i3hi it any further, yet if I don't. I ll lose all the money I've put Into it and be frightfully In debt." Too ?onipllcated for me, I tJld her. -r:ut I can uni-.rrtnnd that we ought to have money and we liu-en't. What do we do?' I wUh you wouldn't be so flip--anl!" she exclaired disgustedly. What we must do is get ten thou- Kir.d dollars at once, today. We haven't any security or I'd borrow it at tho bank. I don't know what lo do:" I'd iuver een Virginia so upset before. Usually nothing ruffled her crmrosure. jSuppose you leave It to me, I mi-sted, after thinking things over for a moment. "I think I can sop a way out." I hoped you would," she said fpiickly. "Of course, sometimes the only way seems a hari one to lake, but then, if one ha plenty of money, things aren't very diffi cult. And you've seen how much love counts for Just nothing at all." I couldn't Imagine what she meant at first. Than suddenly I realized that ca I thought things over I'd been fingering a rose that had been on my breakfast tray, one of a huge bunch that Frank Harrison had seftt nio that morn ing. -- And Virginia had thought that 1 was going to borrow the ten thou sand "on account" promising to marry him later on in payment, I suppose. At first I was furious. Then, when I remembered my plr.n for switching his affectlofis to her, I was jiust ainiuetl: Mnntt.fr Till Uttle World! SuhscriTv for the Journal Awakening The Iowa anti-saloon league declare that either the state and federal liquor laws must- be enforced "with utmost rigidity" or the people of Iowa "must face possible modifica tion" to permit the making and sale of light wines and beer.' Sentiment for modification is, declared to have reached "hupre proportions," and threatens to "destroy the good work that already has been done." Prohibition is a farce that sooner or later the people will tire of. It will either be modified or become a dead letter like the 15lh Amendment. There is do dearth of booze anywhere in this broad land, and even in dry Kansas, William Allen White declares that almost everyone is either "taking a drink, just had a drink or on his way to get a drink." It has bred , hypocricy, corruption, and demoralization. Prohibition is an instance of a law attempting to make public opinion instead of public opinion making the law. The only hope of its enforcement lies in rallying public opinion to its suppc.'t, and it refuses to rally, despite the strenuous campaign in its behalf. And when public opinion does not support a law it might as well never have been made. It was passed on the theory that passage of a law changes human nature. Over a century ago, Thomas Jefferson rejoicing in the reduction of the tariff on wine, as a temperance measure, wrote: No nation Is drunken where wino In che:ip; nnd none sober, where the dearncHs of wine substitutes anient spirits ns the common bever axe. It is. In truth, the only antidote to the hano of whlnkey. Its extended use will carry health and comfort to a much enlarged circle. Prohibition has made the ardent spirits of moonshine the national beverage. Prohibition by Poster Will Be a Great Show (Neal O'llura, In the New Orleans btates) Congress has, appropriated $0,000 for au advertising drive to popularize prohibition. Off hand we can think ot only one better way of blowing perfectly good money. That Is to advertise Miami as winter resort In all the Los Angeles papers. Tho cnmpalRn optMis next July. The first wad of taxpayers' maxu ma will bo spent on posters with appropriate slogans. These slo gans wIU be placed In public buildings, encouraging citizens to he good and fostering sentiment In favor of prohibition. It Is ex pected the posters will have the same strong appeal ns No-splttlng-on-the-sidewalk and Keep-off-the-grns commands. Tho Prohibition Commissioner at Washington Is now considering what slogans aro tho host. Among tho campulgn posters liable to be selected are the following gems: Coming! Coming! riuminrnoN! Tho Mighty, Marvelous, Mastodou- lc Miracle of tho Twentieth Century. Free street parade of wild an I ma Is and reptiles Seen under the liifluenco of bootleg hooch.
