Hours ieih The Sacred Heart. TraDslat ID from
the French. By A. J. Z. New York. T. j..
Kennedy.
This tiny book is real treasure and jost
such one - We would like to clip into the
hands Of every young man-especially tho Sc
young men who want small, compact prayer
books, easily hid away in the pocket, yet con-
tanning all that 10 necessary for their usual
Sunday devotions.
This dear little book contains all this and
great deal more, for it has beautiful prayers
for Communion, Alteration, etc and although
very small and convenient. is as precious as it
10 diminutiye.
Opening ct page 103. we read these words:
81 can not spend single hour s5mpathizng
with Thee in Thy sorrowfnl agony. can not
even control my Imagination during the few
brief moments when possess Thee in Holy
Communion"
Ah, how this reflection ought to touch the
heart Of the youth of to day How many hours
are spent by them in idle visits, in foolish talk
in vain smusenenis but how long q single
honr appears when they are before the altar,
in the presence OF God! These words in their
little prayer book, will touch the heart of
thoughtless youth, they, who are so at5ei tive
to their lady friends 40 courteous in cir man.
nsrs, 30 devoted in their attentions for hour
after hour, will surely feel a spark of generous
emotion, of chivalric love for Him whose love
for them 'surpasseth that of woman" Who
lived to teach them what true manhood means, |
and Who died to seoure for them all that the |
heart of man can conceive of rest and peace |
srd unuttersble glory.
In reading these Hours with the Sacred |
Heart" may many of Us learn 80 to live as , |
spend with 1t blessed eternity in Heaven.

BEoHZE SOUS THE Co7N OF THE PEOPLE AND
CARTED INTO TEE TREASURY.
Paris Letter in Baltimore American.

Paris Letter in Balst1aere American.
The French sons, or pennies, aud double sous,
are made of bronze, and she quantity of them
in circulation is immense. Among the lower
claoses it is the principal circulating medium.
On the great fete days, when the price of ad-
mission TO the Exposition was Eve sous, four
wagon loads of this bronze money was cent to
the Treasury next day, weighing ab'ut six
tons. The passenger railway aud omnibus
conductors receive nothing but bronze money,
ard must have cart loads brought in daily.
Whilst tais is the case in Paris, it is even
more extensively used in the country aud the
smaller towns. The markets and small shop
keepers conduct their business largely with
brorSe money. Geld is more abundant than
silver in the larger branches of trade, and
govern menu notes seldom of a
smaller denomins5on than one hundred
fran Cs, u . to FIVE hundred and one thousand.
There would seem to be need here for sill
yer, as the gold Ave franc and ten and twenty
franc pieces are abundant aud much more con-
venieas and acceptable than silver money. The
silver denominations ere those of five francs,
eq nal to our dollar, Two francs, one franc and
a hsH franc, tqasl TO our dime. Silver will
never be used here except means of max
ing change 10 purchaser, Or anywhere else
where gold aud redeemsoie paper are avail
