WOMAN'S WORLD.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS. Don't complain. Don't demand sympathy. I Don't say you arc unlucky. You are as lucky as you tliink you arc, and opportunity is always at your door. Don't tliink you would succeed better somewhere else'than where you live. Don't waste time in self-pity. Don't lie persuaded that you must be absolutely healthy before you start to work. You may find health in your work. Don't stay in an employment which really is a detriment to your health. If you are, brave, enough to try, you will find something better suited to your needs. Work with a goal before you. Don't be satisfied with your own degree of efficiency or knowledge. You can always acquire more. THE MOTHER. It is not mine to wield War's mighty sword, To mark the foe with cool and deadly aim, To face death hourly in the gloriou3 name Of Country and of King; the hostile horde Wages unchecked by me its vile accoYd Of pestilence and of woeful deeds of shame; My arm speeds not fair England's sacred fame, Nor on the battlefield doth aid afTord, Yet on the altar is my heart-blood sprent, A thousand inward deaths I daily die, Yit, dry-eyed, make no moan: though old and bent, At Duty's call, I answered, "Here am I.". ... For know ye not that with the ranks he went, My latest born—the apple of mine eyo? —Lotty G. Allen.
