You know folks it's a job worth while to mother nine children, tend and watch "em through childhood, then have the pleasure of seeing them blossom out into manhood, womanhood, see them all married and settled down in life. Now in her old age, she can look back and think of the many happy hours she has spent with them--. They are all babies to her still. There is no love like that of a mother. We congratulate Mrs. Manning for her service to her family, her state and nation--You know a human life, is a life of servicee, and the service that one renders to family, state and nation is the only service that is never forgotten.
