A, Pretty Story StrlsinglS Illustrative Of
Perfect Etiquette.
In Mr.. and Mrs. Bancroft's "Re1rin.
iseences" there is a stcry told by Mr.
Charles Collette which is beautifully
and very strikingly illustrative Of true
etiquette. A young soldier in ans En-
tglish regiment had been promoted from
the ranks and given a commission in
ianother regiment. Before joining his
new command he, was, according to
custom, invited to,aa farewell dinner by
! the officers st his old regiment, placed,
as the guest of tho evening lon the
right of the. Colonel and helped to all
the dishes first. He was fine, young
fellow, bur little, used to thesways OF
the polite world, ard the manners OF
other dining tables than the humble
mess of those, days in ranks. The
Colonel, one ,ofTtha truest types of gem
tlemen, did his, best to putt his guest
at his ease. The soup was, served and
then came a, a,serxant to the guests side,
holding q large bowl whiah, contained

An Ancient Powder-Horn.

There has been presented to the JET
ferson County Historical Society
powder-horn which, from the devices
engraved upon it, was evidently car
ried in the campaigns Of the old French
and Indian war. 1t was presented to
the late Norris M. Shepardson, OF Belle
vile, by his uncle, Darius Shepardson,
who traded pOwder-horns with "a soldier
in the war of 1912 and obtained this
one. 1t has been presented to the His
torical Society by Eunice, daughter Of
Norris Shepardson, through his execu-
tor, F. Williams. The most prominent
object engraved on this pOwder-horn is
the coat-of-arms OF Great Britain, the
lion. and unicorn, and within the circle
of the motto OF the order of the Carter
is inscribed: ''William Spornhein-
1z62-His Horn" The other engraving
represents the Hudson river, the
forts, and places whore battles were
fought. Ssme Of the engravings may
have been added afterward, rs the old
pOwder-horn has evidently been
through three OF the great wars Of
early American history-the first or
French war, the revolution, and the
war of 1912. It Is an interesting relic.

Locks Of gold wet with dew,
Rosebud mouth, eyes Of blue,
Seeking hers in mute appealing,
Dimpled hands In hers a.stealing,
To her breast, silken nest,
Tenderly the maiden folds him,
Grooming softly as she holds him,
Till he gently sinks to rest.
''Have care child, bewarei
Any semblance Love can wear"
Cries the grandame OF her weaving;

On the Voices Of Great Orators,

useful qualifications Of an orator is q
good voice. Burke had difficulties in
the House through the lack it, while
William Pitt, through the possession of
it, was ruler there at the age of 2ii.
Mr.. Lecky says that O'Connell's voice,
rising with an easy and melodious
swell, filed the largest building and
triumphed over the widest tumult,
while at the same time it conveyed every
infection Of feeling with the most deli
cate hexibility. The great majority Of
celebrated orators have been aided by
the possession Of a good voice. Web

planatory:
LETTE FROM PRESIDENT o'BR1EN.
Saltwater, June II, 1885.
To the Most Rev. John Ireland, Arch
bishop Of st. Paul, St. Paul, MINI.
May it please your Grace: The pur-
pose Of this communication is to call
your attention to the fourth paragraph
in the English translation of the Brief
of His Holiness, Leo Kill, to the
Catholic Total Abstinence Union Of
America, given at Rome, June 10, 1876,
and which reads as follows:
"Moreover, in favor Of the present
and future members Of the said Union,
who, at least, with contrite hearts, shall
on four days Of the year, festival or
otherwise, to be designated once for all
by the Ordinary, visit each his own
parish church, and there pray as above
stated. We grant, III the accustomed
form Of the Church. an Indulgence of
Seven Years, and as many quarantines
from the penances enjoined upon them
due, each day that they shall have full
filled these conditions"
1t is understood that the four days of
the year on which are to be made the
visits to parish churches FOR the purpose
stated by our Holy Father, are to be
designated, once for all, by the Ordinary
OF each diocese. AS there is no official
record that such days have as yet been
set apart by your Grace, it is the wish
Of the members Of your Catholic Total
Abstinence Union, that your Grace do,
by letter or otherwise, as you deem
proper, designate. once tor all, four
days of the year on which each member
Of the Union may visit his own parish
church FOR the purpose of complying
with the conditions mentioned in, and
Of gaining the spiritual blessings as.
sured by the Brief of the Holy Father,
1t will be full assurance Of the complete
success Of the great cause of total absti.
nence when all the members associated
in the various Unions shall place them
selves in the way of resolving the
abundance of grace so mercifully
granted by Almighty God through the
1Ginistrations OF His Holy Church; and
Che total abstainers Of the Diocese OF
St Paul, I confidently believe, aspire to
every benefit that may be derived
through the channels o. faith.
With renewed assuIance Of the last
ing sentiments ?f affection and high
esteem held for your Grace by all she
members Of your Catholic Total A.Dstj-
nence Union of the DIOCESE OF St. Paul,
I beg leaye to subscribe myself your
Grace's most humble servant and child
in Christ.
