text differ from the persons i just named she was an ordinary woman with ordinary intellectual capacity placed in ordinary circumstances and yet by extraordinary piety standing out before all the ages to come the model christian mother hannah was the wife of etkanah who was a person very much like herself unromantio and plain never having fought a battle or been the subject of a marvelous escape neither of them would have been called a genius just what you and i might be that was elkanah and hannah the brightest time in all the history of that family was the birth of samuel al- though no star ran along the heavens pointing down to his birihplaco i think the angels of god stooped at tho coming of so wonderful a prophet as samuel had been given in answer to prayer elkanah and all his family save han nah started up to shiloh to offer sacrifices of thanksgiving tho cradlo where tho child slept was altar enough for han nahs grateful heart but when tho boy was old enough sb took him to shiloh and took three bullocks and an ephah of flour and a bottle of wine and made offering of sacrifice unto tho lord and there according to a previous vow she left him for thero he was to stay all tho days of his life and minister in the sanc- tuary i years rolled on and every year han nah made with her own hand a garment for samuel and took it over to him the lad would have got along well without that garment for i suppose he was well clad by the ministry of the temple but hannah could not be contented unless she was all the time doing something for her darling boy moreover his mother made him a little coat and brought it to him from year to year when she came with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice hannah stands before you then to day in the first place as an industrious mother there was no need that she work elkanah her husband was far from poor he belonged to a disting uished family for the bible tlls us that he was the son of jeroham the son of ellhu the son of tohu the sou of zuph who were they you say i dont know butthey were distinguished peo ple no doubt or their names would not have been mentioned hannah might have seated herself in her family and with folded arms and disheveled hair read novels from year to year if there had been any to read but when i see her making that garment and taking it over to samuel i know she is industri ous from principle us well as from plea sure god would not have a mother be come a drudge or a slave he would have her employ all the helps possible in this day in the rearing of her children but hannah ought never to be ashamed to be found making a coat for samuel most mothers need no counsel in this direction the wrinkles on their brow the pallor on their cheek tho thimble mark on their finger attest that they are faithful in their maternal duties the bloom and the brightness and the vivac ity of girlhood have given place to the grander dignity and usefulness and in dustry of motherhood but there is a heathenish idea getting abroad in some of the families of americans there are mothers who banish themselves from the home circle for threefourths of their maternal duties they prove themselves incompetent they are ignorant of what their children wear and what their chil- dron eat and what their children read they intrust to irresponsible persons these young immortals and allow them to be under influences which may cripple their bodies or taint their purity or spoil their manners or destroy their souls from the awkward cut of sam uels coat you know his mother hannah did not make it out from under flaming chandeliers and off from imported carpets and down tho granite stairs there is coming a great crowd of children in this day untrained saucy incompetent for all the practical duties of life ready to be caught in the first whirl of crime and- sensuality in dolent and unfaithful mothers will make indolent and unfaithful children you cannot expect neatness and order in any house where the daughters see noth ing but slatternliness and upside downa- tlveness in their parents let hannah be idle and most certainly samuel will grow idle who are tho industrious men in all our occupations and professions who are they managing the merchan dise of tho world building the walls tinning tho roofs weaving the carpets making the laws governing the nations making the earth to quake and heave and roar and rattle with the tread of gigantic enterprises who are they for the most part they descended from in dustrious mothers who in the old home stead used to spin their own yarn and

political parties the scum of society the tavern lounging tore infesting the men of low wink and filthy chuckle and brass breastpin and rotten associations for tho most part they came from mothers idle and dis gusting the scandal mongers of society going from house to house attending to everybodys business but their own be lieving in witches and ghosts and horse shoes to keep the devil out of

may hare i think she ought every year at least make one garment for samuel the lord have mercy on the man who is so un fortunate as to have a lazy mother again hannah stands before you to day as an intelligent mother from the way in which she talked in this chapter and from the way she managed this boy you know she was intelligent thero are no persons in a community who need to be so wise and well informed a mchers oh this work of culturlng children for this world and the next this child is tlmld and it must be roused up and pushed out into activities this child is forward and he must be held back and tamed down into modesty and politeness i for all the coats she made for samuel for all the prayers she offered for blm for the discipline she exerfd over him she got abundant compensation in the piety nd the usefulness and the popu larity of her son samuel and that is true in all ages every mother gets full pay for all the prayers and tears in behalf of her children that

intelligence are necessary in the rear ing of children but in this day when there are so many books on this subject no parent is excusable in being ignorant of the best mode of bringing up a child if parents knew more of dietetics there would not be so many dyspeptic stomachs and weak nerves and inactive livers among children if parents knew more of physiology there would not bo so many curved spines and cramped chests and inflamed throats and diseased lungs as thero are among children if parents knew more of art and were in sympathy wltb all that is beautiful there would not be so many children coming out in the world with boorish proclivities if parents knew more of christ and prac tised more of his religion thero would not be so many little feet already starting on the wrong rad

but it is a shame that in this day when there are so many opportunities of im proving ourselves in the best manner of culturlng children that so often thero is no more advancement in this respect than there has been among the kids and the eaglets and the whelps again hannah stands before you to day as a christian mother from her prayers and from tho way she conse crated her boy to god i know she was good a mother may hare the finest culture the most brilliant surroundings but she is not fit for her duties unless she be a christian mother there may be well read libraries in tho house and exquisite music iu the parlor and the canvas of the best artist adorning the walls and the wardrobe be crowded with tasteful apparel and tho children be wonderful for their attainments and make the house ring with laughter and innocent mirth but there is something woefully laoking iu that house if it be not also tho residence of a christian mother i bless god that there are not many prayerless mothers the weight of responsibility is so great that they feel tho need of a divine hand to help and a divine voice to comfort and a divine heart to sympathize thousands of mothers have been led into tho kingdom of god by the hands of their little child ren there are hundreds of mothers to day who would not have been chrstians had it not been for the prattle of their little ones standing some day

lord help me oh are there anx ious mothers who know nothing of the infinite help of religion then i com mend to you hannah tho pious mother of samuel do not think it is absolutely impossible that your children come up iniquitous out of just such fair brows and bright eyes and soft bands and innocent hearts crime gets us victims extirpating purity from tho heart and rubbing out the smoothness from tho brow and quenching the luster of tho eye and shriveling up and poisoning and putrefying and scathing and scalding and blasting and burning with shame and woe every child is a bundle of tremendous possibilities and whether that child shall come forth in life its heart attuned to the eternal harmonies and after a life of usefulness on earth go to a life of joy in heaven or whether across it shall jar eternal discords and after a life of wrongdoing on earth it shall go to a home of impenetrable darkness and an abyss of immeasurable plunge is being decided by nursery song and sabbath

impetus of his galloping horse and lo in the twinkling of an eye the sword point was through the shield and half its length buried in the zulus broad chest the gallant induna was a dead man and his assegai stands now in a corner of beresfords mothers drawingroom the flight of the groups of zulus was a calculated snare the fugitives in front of the irregulars were simply a decoy suddenly from out of a deep water course crossing the plain and from out the ad jacent long grass sprang up a long line of several thousand armed zulus at butlers loud command to fire a volley and then retire beresford

beresford riding behind his retreating party looked back and saw that the fallen man was trying to rise into a sitting posture the zulus darting out in haste were perilously close to the poor fellow but beresford measuring distance with tho eye saw a chance of anticipating them galloping back to tho wounded man and dismounting he confronted his ad versaries with his revolver while urging the soldier to get on his horse the wounded man bade beresford remount and fly why said he should two die when death was inevitable but to one the quaint resourceful humor of his race did not fail

and was at last seri ously aggravated by palpitation of the heart brought on by the stomach troub les she lost all relish for food and grew so weak that it was with difficulty she could go about the house and to do her chare of the necessary housework made life a burden at times it was simply impossible for her to take food as every mouthful produced a feeling of nausea and sometimes brought on violent fits of vomiting which left her weaker than be fore she had taken a great deal of medi cine but did not and any improvement at last she read in a newspaper of a cure in a similar case through the use of dr williams pink pills and decided to give thorn a trial after using three or four boxes there was a great improvement in her condition and after the use of eight boxes mrs worrell says i can assure you i am now a well woman as strong as over i was in my life and i owe my present condition entirely to the use of dr williams pink pills whioh have proved to me a wonderful medicine mrs- worrell further says that pink pills were also of the greatest benefit to her hus band who suffered greatly with rheuma tism in his hands and arms at times theso would swell up and the pains were so great that he could not sleep and would sit the whole night beside a fire in order to get a little relief from tho pain he was enduring seeing how much benefit his wife derived from tho uso of pink pills he began their use and soon drove the rheumatism from his system and he has since been free from the ter rible pains which had formerly made his life miserable both mr and mrs worrell say they will always strongly re commend dr williams pink pills to ail ing friends these pills are a blood builder and nerve restorer and there is no trouble whose origin is due to either of these causes that they will not cure if given a fair trial the genuine pink pills are sold only in boxes the wrapper around which bears the full trade mark dr williams pink pills for palo people there are imitations of
