.Mrs. Kerrls Is known as the "wom

with a family of yuirng children, she
has managed her farm moat sucoesa

She conic from Itelfnst, Ireland, and

Mrs. (irunt has a lienutiful farm on
the batik of the Canadian Klllarney,

her son, a young man juat out of col

Juat as they were preparing for spring

the place, she derided to leave it, but
the morning after her daughfer called
to her, "Mother, mine here quick !' She
looked and saw that men, teams and
Dlowa nuletly and without a word of
explanation were beginning work on the
farm. The neighlairs had decided to
put In the season's crop for the two be
reaved women. They actuully plowed,
burrowed. eeelel and reaped the entire
crop. After that Mrs. (.rant talked no
more of going 'home." Her farm by
the shores of the Cauadlan Klllnniey
was home to her.
Many women teachers, too, are found

A Mil nf Mraterr.
Tln-re Is au uuforgetnlile story of a
gallant deed In a recent volume, "Sir
Thomas Lawrence's Letter ltag."
There wus a supreme moment during
the llattle of Waterloo when the iMike
of Wellington was left absolutely alone,
every aide do-cnnip having gone his
way, each with his message. At this
moment a stranger rsle up to the duke.
"Can I I of any use, sir?" he asked.
The duke I.M.ked at hltn an Instant,
then unhesitatingly answered:
"Yes. take this pencil note to the
commanding oIH.it." minting to a regi
ment In the thick of the battle.
The stranger tisik the note and gal
lostl away with It. lie delivered It,
but what bnpBfiicd to blui no man
know s.
The duke always declared thnt to be
one of the most gallant il.-e.ls that had
ever come under his notice. It was
done without pr.iMi-t of acknowledge
ment or reward, and neither attended
its acisinipHsliinciit,
