Shortly before the stirring days of 1861 John Atwater and his wife were living bappily together, "interested in the education of their two sons, John and Arthur. The boys had arrived at that age when they most neeced a fa- ther's guidance--that is, they were in thelr teens--and the parents were look- ing forward for them tq an honorable career. Then the father dled, leaving his widow to shoulder all the respon- sibility for the completion of thelr ed- ucation and giving them a start in life. They resided in the east. It seemed impossible under the cir cumstances to keep the family togeth- er. An uncle in Missouri offered to take one of the boys and do what be a living. It was déemed best to ac- cept this offer, and the alder sen was gent to Missourl Another uncle, a brother of Mrs. Atwater, offered to take the younger son and release his mother of the responsibility of finding employment for him. It was a sad parting between the mother and her two boys, especially since one of them was to go 8o far away. But the plucky woman, considering the interest of her sons rather than her own desire to Lave them with ber, consented to the we) tion, This dividing of the family turned after John Atwater reached his new home. Missouri was a slave state and bad lage beep settled by Jowthera., people. sympathies of the inhab- ttants were largely with tbe south, and & vigorous attempt was made to bold 'to 'Confederacy. gE i i EEA] fs fei: to him to come to ber at once.

' "You gave me the lle! That's mo- ° tiny. I'll attend to your ¢ase, Go to the guard tent." The captain reported that Private At water had been insolent to him, and Arthur knew that he would be tried for mutiny. Night came on, and while under arrest he thought of his dying mother, who was calling .on him to come to her. The straip was more than he could bear.

The papers in son's court martial had been forward- ed to him, and his signature was neces- sary before the death sentence could be earried out. The visitor offered to give way to the newcomer, but Mr. Lincoln urged him to remain where he wis, at the same time giving an order that the woman was to be ad- mitted. ~ Presently the door was opened, and a pale faced woman entered. "My son has been condemned to die," she said, "and will be executed uniess you will save him." . "What is he charged with, madam?" "Desertion."

Extravagance is a relative term - usually misapplied. If a man is worth a hundred million it would not be éon- sidered extravagant for him to a hundred thousand doflars on goldfish 'i¢ be wanted to. If a family of tem people living on $1,000 a year should get their pictures taken that would be' extravagance. Extravagance, however, is not exact: ly buying something you cannot afford. 'What you cannot afford now you may later, and the very fact that you have beught it may have been the cause of your future prosperity. Extravagance is an exceeding of the speed limit. But who shall say what this is? Ope of the chief difficulties In dein ing extravagance is the general as- sumption that it is sométhing wicked. | Going it! The Larch In Labrader.
