WHERE'S BOTHER, Bursting in from School or play, This is what the children say ; Trooping, crowding, big and smart, On the threshold, in the hall, Joining in the constant pry Ever as the days go by— "Where's mother ?" From the weary bed of pain, This seine question comes again Prom the boy with sparkling eyes Bearing home his earliest prize ; From the bronzed and bearded son, Perils past and honors won— "Where's mother ?" Burdened with a lonely task, One cavy we may vainly ask For the comfort of herface, For the rest of her embrace ; Let us love her while we may— Well for us th.it we can say: "Where's mother ?" SOUTH HURON LIBERM. S.. The Liberals of South Huron as constituted for provincial • purposes, met in convention at llensall. The convention was ono of the largest, most enthusiastic and harmonious, ever held in the county. Over 140 delegates registered their mimes, the polling subdivisions being fully re. presented. Mr. Mc)wen, president of the association presided, and Mr, Thomas Fraer of Stanleys' acted as secretary. On the first ballot the convention was practically unanimous for the present member, Mr. M. Y. McLean he having received all the N ctes, but five or six. The nomination was made unanimous by a standing vote, Mr, McLean, in a brief speech, ac- cepted the nomination, thanking the committee for the unanmity with which they approved of his course and conduct as their representative. Your mother --she is a dear, noble, heroic soul ; but mother herself is but a spark that sprang out of the bosom of God. * * !c Blessed is the child that is brought up at the mother's knee, which is God's Altar on earth. • * * t� bad woman is the worst thing in this world, and a good woman is the best thing in this world. �c * The name, inuther is the watch- word—the talisman of life. Indeed it is the very object almost of prayer when the mother is translated. As the Catholic devoutly prays through Virgin 1V[i ry, so you and I pray, de- voutly through our mother; not be- cause; we really believe she is a medi- ator, but because we want ' to have some sense of sympathy up there, and the rnether has it. We get a hold,on the beyond through her. * THAT BOY Iv YOUR 11O'ME. Does your boy show an inclination to read ?
