Some one, who had noticed the
influence of wives in promoting the
good or evil fortunes 01 their hus
bands, said: "A man mnst ask his
wife's leave to be rich.' "We doubt
not that in similar observation of the i
influence of mothers upon their sons
would justify the remark: "A man
must ask his mother's leave to be
reat." Years ago, a family of four
-a father, a mother, and two sons,
dwelt in a small honse situated in
the roughest locality of the rocky
town of AshforiL Connecticut. The
lamuy was very poor. a. lew acres or
stony land, a dozen sheep and one;
cow " supported them. The sheep j
clothed them, and the cow gave milk 1
UiU U1U null. UL U 111 IlUbl
in and harrowing Corn bread
milk and bean porridge was their
fare. The father being laid aside by
ill health, the burden of supporting
the family rested on the mother. She
did her work in the house and help
ed the boys do theirs on the farm.
Once, in "the dead of winter, one of
the boys required a new suit of
clothes. There was neither money
no wool on hand. Themothensheared J
tne nau-grown nccce trom tne sneep,
arid in one week the suit was on the i
boy. The shorn sheep was protected
from the cold by a garment made 01
braided straw. The family lived
four miles from the '"meeting house."
Yet every Sunday the mother and
her two sons walked to church. One
of these sons became the pastor of
the church at Franklin, Conneticut,
where he preached for sixty-one
years. Two generations went from
that church to make the world better.
The other sou also became a minister,
and then one of the most successful
of college presidents. Hundreds of
voting men were moulded by him.
That heroic christian woman's namo
was Deborah Nott. She was the
mother of Rev. Samuel Nott and
of Eliphalet Kott, president of Union
College.
Tlic secretary of the treasury in

In the whole Bussian Empire of
