EXPLANATION of Two Words.

By the way, wonder how many people
have perfectly clear conception Of tho
meaning of that word STRAINED" as used in
Portals celebrated speech. I know many
associate it vaguely with sieve, Others with
taut line The writer of this can remember
when she hazily vibrated between the two.
1t means simply constrained.
Portia-Then must the Jew be merciful
Shylock-On what compulsion must I, tell
me thata
Portable quality of mercy is not strained
[constrainedl
OF course-simple as Browning-after he
has been explained. There is line in the
Bible, "The voice of the turtle is heard In
the land" about which hangs something Of
the same haziness as to its meaning. In
'tWinter's Tale" Paulina says:
/, an old turtle, will wing me to some withered
bough.
"What do you think turtle means heref'
said our Shakespeare teacher, peering over
his spectacles, "mud turtle2' We maintained
discreet silence and experienced sudden
illumination. Certainly mud turtles are not,
as general thing, given to either singing or
winging. believe that three-fourths of that
class were enlightened when the professor
said: "It means turtle doves" ''Some PEG
pie think" he said, "that it means mud
turtle" We all laughed with suspicious en-
ergy-mud turtle, indeed!-Boston Tran.

THE SILENT BROTHERHOOD.

The Trappist Monastery in Kentucky-The
Brothers Out of Doors.
The community do not till the farm. The
greater part of their land Is occupied by
tenant farmers, and what they reserve for
their own use is cultivated by the SO called
"family brothers," who, it is due to say, have
no families, but live as celibates on the abbey
domain, subject to the abbot's authority,
without being members of the order. The
monks, however, do labor in the ample gar
dens, orchards and vineyards from which
they derive their sustenapce, in the steam
saw mill and grain mill, in the dairy and
cheese factory. Thus picturesquely engaged
one may find them in autumn; monks gather
ing apples and making barrel after barrel Of
pungent CIDER which is slowed away in the
vast cellar as their only beverage except
water; monks repairing the single roof of a
stable; monks feeding the swine which they
fatten for the board of their carnal guests,
or the fluttering multitude of chickens from
the eggs and young of which they derive
slender revenue; monks grouped in the gar
den around green and purple heap of tur-
nips to be stored up as q winter relish Of no
mean distinction.
Amidst such scenes one forgets all else
while enjoying the wealth and freshness Of
artistic effects. What picture Is this young
Belgian cheese maker, his sleeves rolled up
above the elbows Of his brawny arms, his
great pinlish hand buried in the golden curds,
the cap OF his serge cloak falling back and
showing his closely clipped golden brown
hair, blue eyes and clear delicate skin! Or
| this Australian ex-farmer, as he stands by the
| hopper of grist or lays on his shoulder bag
| of flour for the coarse brown bread Of the
monks. Or this dark old French opera singer
| who strutted his brief hour on many a
European stage, but now hobbies around, all
| hoary in his cowl and blanched with age, to
pick up a handful Of garlic. Or this athletic
superbly formed young Irishman, thrusting
great iron prod into the glowing Goals of
the saw mill furnace Or this slender Switzer,
your attendant in the refectory, with great
keys dangling from his leathern cincture,
who stands by with folded hands and bowed
head while you are eating the pagan meal he
has prepared, and prays that you may be
forgiven for enjoying it.
| From various countries of the old world
men find their way into the Abbey Of Geth-
semane, but among them are no Americans.
Repeatedly the latter have made the expert
ment, and have always failed to persevere up
to the final conservation of the white cowl
The fairest warning is given to the postu-
liant. He is made to understand the entire
extent Of the obligation he has assumed, and
only after passing through a novitiate, pro-
longed at the discretion of the abbot, is he
| admitted to the VOWS that must be kept un-
broken till death.-James Lane Allen In The
