MOBILITY AND ALIMONY. ,
Prince Ferdinand Colossus. scion of
. one of the oldest and most aristocraticl
itatnilies of Rome. is in deep distress.
As might be guessed. it is financial
‘ distress. And so he has brouht suit ag—
ainst his American wife for alimony. 1
The prince has an income of $2.400
a year which, of course, is ridiculous-
ly impossible for a prince to live on.
Besides. it's all eaten up by interest
on the mortgages that cover his here-
ditary estates. That leaves him wltht
no resources except credit—and not
:lllllcll of that. Even in Rome the
tradesmen got tired of trusting moth-
cttten and impeunious nobility.
His wife. however, is rich. She is a
daughter of a "mining king." And
this American-born princess, it seems
has actually been so cruel as to re
fuse to support him in the style to
which he is accustomed making it nec
essary for him to appeal to the courts.
Aristocracy must assert its rights
even at the expense of unpleasant
publicity.
It's an illuminating spectacle for
any American girl ambitious to marry
into Old World nobility. '

The Mothers of the World
A Mother's Love, Like Unto a Priceless Gent Without a Flaw,
Boundless as Space, Knows No Limit. Knows No Law.
Down through the centuries the prayers and cries of the
Mothers of the World have been ascending to the throne of grace
for the offspring that God has given them to love. cherish and pro
tect. Biblical and modern history records the wonderful self
sacrificing mothers of many grand and noble characters. who have
performed great deeds of heroism and valor. becoming leaders of
the people of their time and day. But crowning the lotherhood of
all Womankiud. is She who gave birth to the Son of God. Jesus .
Christ. who was made a sacrifice for the world. Blessed is the
mother who daily walks with Him who made this sacrifice, and
endeavors to rear those entrusted to her love and care in right
eouaneu. and keep them in the straight path to become true men
and women to God and themselves
But how many times is the mother“ it love and devotion repaid

nights of watching and waiting, Iomotilnea even to the early dawn,
for the return of the wayward sou or daughter who has gone
astray; leaving the home and shelter to go the mother knows not
where, or the hour of return. Oh. that memory cctiitl take them
back to that time when evening bells ring softly. and shadows fall
o‘er land and sea, to think ofthat twilight hour so dear, and
the pram at mother’s knee. How sad to think of the aching
heart of these mothers. and the tears shed would make a river
of sorrow. and it those who have caused it all could look upon that
river. it would be blood red in hue.
But. thank God. there is another side to the picture.
