The Best Advice.

Judge Strong practised in Jefferson
county, Mo-, and a prisoner being ar
raigned for theft, who had no counsel
the court appointed young Strong to
that service, directing him to confer
with the prisoner, and give him the
best advice he could under the circum-
stances. He retired with his client to
an adjacent room for consultation and
when an officer was sent to inform them
chat the court was waiting, Strong was
found alone, and returned with the off,
Ger into the court room. "Where is
your client p demanded the judge.
''He has left the place." replied the
lawyer. Left the place. cried the Judge.
'What do you mean, MIR. Strong p
"Why, your honor directed me to give
him the best advice could under the
circumstances. He told me he was
guilty, and so I opened the window and
advised him to jump and run. He took
my advice, as in duty bound, and by
this time he is more than two miles

Own Your Homes.

Every man, says the Building News,
whether he is workingman IN the
common acceptation of the word or
not, feels a deep interest in the man
agement of the affairs of the city, coun-
ty and state in which he lives wherever
he owns home. He is more patrl otic,
and, in many ways, is better citizen,
than the man Who simply rents, and
who has but little, if any,, assurance OF
how long it will be before he can be Or
dered to move, to which may be added,
in many cases, the saving of more
money.
Of course, it requires some economy
to lay up sufficient amount Of money
to purchase and pay tor a home; but
this very fact, if properly carried out
after the home is acquired, may be the
instrument Of furnishing the means to
commence and prosecute business
upon ones own responsibility. True. in
some cases, it will require more econo
my, perhaps, than is now practised.
But the question with every man, and
especially if he is the head of Il family
is, can be afford it? That is, can he
afford to live up to his wages as fast as
he earns them, without laying up any
thing for the future.
If he is the head Of a family, he is
Obliged to pay rent, and it does not re-
quire very many years of rent to make
up an amount sufficient to purchase
and pay for comfortable home. Yot
have to pay rent. This, you say, yo1
cannot avoid and be honest. Well, yol
cannot be honest with your family un-
less you make a reasonable attempG tt
provide them home of their own ir
case anything should happen to you.
| And the obligation to do this should
be as strong as the one 10 pay rent OF

A .l'rlhnta to Mother,

It has been beautifully said OF a
mother chat "she is the morning and
evening star of life. The light in her
eye is always the first to rise, and gen
orally the last to set upon the checkered
life OF man." She has been called "the
divinity OF infancy" She can shower
around her the most genial Of all iDt1u-
ences, and from the time when she first
lays her little one in Elysium By clasp"
ing it to her bosom, "its first paradise, -
to the moment when that child is indie
pendent of her aid, her smile, her work,
her wish, is an inspiring force. A SEN
tence of encouragement or praise from
her is joy for day.
True, living, consistent piety is the
mothers brightest ornament, her truest
glory, her noblest support, and her
richest treasure. Her life should be a
calm, holy, beautiful walk from the
hearthstone to the altar of fire; from
the bosom of her family to the throne
of God.
It has been the testimony of good
men in ali ages that they owe chiefly to
their mothers the best inspirations Of
their lives

to be in all futurity, must be ascribed,
under Providence, to the precepts and

WHY Do CATHOLICS PRAY FOR
TIE DEAD?
What Glass Amongst the Dead do We Pray
for?-And Why do We Ask the
Saints to Pray for Us?

For the enlightenment of some gcoG
nom Catholic friends, who sometimes
ask the above questions, will in reply
to the first question quote from the
second book OF Machabees XII, Chap
43, A, as and 46 V: And making a
gathering be sent twelve thousand
drachms of silver to Jerusalem for sac.
rifice to be offered FOR the sins of the
dead, thinking we'll and reiigiously con-
corning the resurrection. (For il he
had not hoped that they that were siam
should rise again, it would have seemed
superhuous and vain to pray for the
dead. And because he considered that
they who had fallen asleep with godli-
ness. had great grace laid up for them.
1t is therefore holy and wholesome
thought to pray for the dead, that they
may be loosed from sins.
For what class amongst the dead do
we pray? Certainly not for those souls
condemned TO the lowest abyss. They
are beyond the reach of all aid all
praYers-as, ''Out of hell there is no re-
demptlon.'
Neither do espray for the souls in
heaven. They need no prayers. They
are happy and at rest, but they can and
do pray for US. LAS they are saved,
.hey are 80 much the more solicitous
for us" says St. Bernard. ''This is he
that prayeth much for the people, and
for all the holy city," says Scripture of
The prophet Jeremiah, after his death.
ssImplore my aid,' said st. Xavier to
ono of his brethren to whom he ap-
peared, "for thou must know, that my
power in heaven is great" Therefore,
knowing that the saints ardently desire
our eternal happiness, we ask them to
pray for us-though we do not pray to
them, as we pray to God above.
But we pray for those souls who are
detained in the middle state-purgatory
Ito be purified from all remnants Of
sin, before they are admitted into
heaven, where nothing defiled can
enter.
If amongst the departed there are
those who have, apparently, led very
good lives, we may hope that they have
been admitted into heaven. But as we
cannot be certain whether they have
been found worthy of the love or hatred
Of God, as even st. Paul says: II do not
find myself guilty Of anything, but
therefore am Inot justified; He that
iudgeth me is the Lord" And in His
sight Job feared for his days. HE will
take his winnowing fan and cleanse his
threshing floor, and will throw the chaff
into the fire." Therefore. we pray that
IL the departed soul has not been con-
demned, like chaff, but is IN purgatory,
the Lord may listen to our prayersin its
behalf, and mercifully shorten the time
Of the suffering and admit it into ever
lasting rest.
