WARS IN A NAME Pin an eastern
town there is q woman who is exceeding
ly deaf, and her affiiction has caused an
extremely unpleasant mistake, of which
her infant child is the victim. She took
the babe to church the other day to have
him baptized. While she was waiting
in the vestibule, she thought she would
keep him quiet by feeding him from a
bottle of milk While the child was
still taking his nourishment the mother
was summoned to the church by the an
nouncement that the minister was ready.
In her agitation she drew the bottle
from the child's mouth hurriealy, when
the gum nozzle came off and part of
the milk was spilled III the child's new
clothes. When the clergyman took the
child in his.arms he looked down upon
it and asked the mother what name
should be given it, She with her mind
troubled with the accident, thought he
was asking how the clothes became
soiled, so she answered
Nozzle came off,
Rather surprised, he asked again for
the name, and she, thinking he did not
understand her, bawled out
Nozzle came of, / say
Whereupon the astonished divine pour
ed water on the child's head saying:
'Nozzle-came-of, Ferguson, l baptize
thee,' etc.
What this woman wants to know is,
whether the legislature, or something,
cart nave that child's name changed to
Henry, or Luculus, or William, or some

A Coon WAY TO GET OUT OF III

Whiieaw Reid in his editorial Remin-

mature age OF eighteen, but / was not
as vigorous as am now. In the course
of some police items in neighboring
town, had occasion TO say that Dutch
butcher, height six feet, age 80, weight
200, had whipped his wife, proceeding
to which objected, and commented on
with severity. which hope the enlight-
ened press of the country will always
exhibit on such occasions.
The next day the butcher came in and
proposed TO "interview" the writer of
that paragraph. He looked at me and
inquired if wrote il. We think quick
in great perils. and people in danger OF
being thrashed can do a very small
amount of ratiocination in q short time.
saw there was no use of arguing with
the fellow, and said 10 him
"lIans, are you subscriber to this
paper?
Hans, who understood thoroughly that
he had been maligned, was not so sure
on the subject of subscription, and he
shook his head, and asked me what |
meant.
"Hans, are you subscriber to this pa
per?"
Hans scratched his head again, and
believed he was not. | said loudly
"Put your hand in your pocket-book
and give me two dollars TO pay your
subscription. Until you do, l would

l escaped the ,hrashing that time, and
commend it TO the attention of all who
put such things in their papers.

The potato bugs now ravaging some of the
Western States, particularly Indiana Ohio
and Michigan, seem TO be quite as much at
home upon the water as upon the land. The
surface of Lake Michigan, paper from Crosse
Point reports, has been literally alive with
them. The bugs often fly considerable dis
tance, and float easily upon the surface of the
water. They arc evidently bound to make
raid upon Canada, and it Will prove more dis
astrous than any Fenan raid has eyer been.
The curious instinct which prompts them to
travel eastward does not find itsef thwarted
by large bodies of water; they float across
and resume their journey on the other side.
1t would be interesting to know for what
great purpose these bugs started out on their
trip from the Rocky Mountains eastward, and
why they have been so frightfully prolific on
the way. 1t now seems probable that the en-
tire potato crop of Michigan will be failure

HEAvING THE LEAD.-The steamer
Funny was coming down the Upper
Mississippi, loaded with pig-iron. As
she was going over shoal place, the
pilot gave the signal TO heave the lead.

Good Advice.

Never pay your debts, it is unconsti-
tutional; for payment impairs the obli-
gaiion "t contract, and even the Leg
islature has 10 power 10 do that
Always proclaim the faults OF others.
There should he no secrets in a republi-
can government.
Never forgive an injury. The power
of pardoning belongs TO the Governor.
When you are at church, go TO sleep.
Sunday is day Of rest.
When you tind your passions rising,
never confine them. How many boilers
have been burst By too close confinement
Of their contents!
Whenever you attack your neighbours
character, do il behind his back, so as
to not hurt his feelings.
Never give mp your opinion, though
you know you are wrong; it shows that
you have independence.
Temperance is great virtue; there
fore always be moderate in the use of ar
dent spirits. Six glasses of whisky be-
fore breakfast are as good as bucket full.

ST. JosEPH's FAIR.-We are gratifed to see
that the fair, for the benefit of st. Joseph's
new church, is proving decided success. In
deed our surprise would be great If it were
otherwise. The object for which the fair is
being held Is one Of interest, not only to the
Catholics of St. Joseph's parish, but to those
of the entire city and We believe we are JUS
tilted in saying that, to those of other denomi-
nations who are not entirely carried away by
their prejudices, the building of this grand
ediice is also matter in which they are con-
cerned There is scarcely any one so blind as
| that he cannot see the beneficial result OF the
erection of an imposing building for any law
| full purpose. What has made Strasburg so
famousi Is it not its grand Cathedralf Was
! IL not the beautiful buildings that made Paris
tho resort of pleasure-seekcrs from all parts of
the worldf and among those buildings we're
| there any 80 beautiful as the churchesf Such
| undertakings certainly improve property in
the immediate vicinity, and Improvement in
any portion of the city is a matter of interest
to the citizens in general. When we take
these things into consideration, therefore, We
are not surprised to see that the fair is pro-
pressing to the satisfaction of the ladies, under
whose direction it is being conducted. We
hope to see the same encouragement and assist
ance rendered during the coming week, as
, given during the past week. The excitement
over the banners has now gone to fever heat,
. and among the fire companies aud the various
: branches of the Hibernian Association there is
9 at present no other topic. The ladies have
4 baen extremely modest in their demands upon
i visitors, and promise to preserve the same dis
g position during the continuation of the fair
' Gentlemen need not fear, therefore, that the
i. importunitiep of the ladies will cause them to
regret paying a visit to the fair.

For mere intelligence is not enough. In

intelligence, with neither of these quaiin-
