make covetous remarks about it and its price

but all the gobblers in the yard Wed with each

that lorded it over them in such high and
mighty fashion. In her queendom she dis
played rare tact and wonderful judgment for

just in the height of youthful exuberance,
when she had reached the age of months, she
heard the poultryman say to friend who had
been admiring her, ''She's bespoke for Nc

turkeyl Little did she realize that to be 'be-
spoke" often means to have your head cut OF,
and IL surely meant that IN her case. But per-
fectly unconscious of the dire fate in store for
her she roamed around with her very latest
feathers on and enjoyed the sensation she
created among the gobblers and less favored
turkeys. OF course she had great many un-
pleasant things to contend with in the barn
yard Often when some lovesick gohbler would
present her with an especially fne fat worm, q
number Of her younger sisters and brothers and
aunts and uneles and cousins would clamor for
a small portion of it, and sometimes one bolder
than the rest would deftly appropriate the en-
tire worm, but on the whole the youthful
turkey was quite happy and contented until

promiscuous turkeys, some Of them of ques-
tionable age. she was deprived Of her liberty
cooped in fact. To one long accustomed to I'M
trammeled freedom. worms galore and the
homage of the free, this was severe blow, and
the added suspense was terrible as to what the
ultimate outcome would be-
In the base prosecution Of the iniquitous de-
signs OF the man whose atrocious grammar had
Jared upon every well-regulated turkeys ear,
these pentup fowls, and the queenly one
among them, were given everything to eat that
the most epicuresn of the race could express a
desire for. Try as she might to look heavy
hearted and pensive, this fair bird grew sleek
and fat, and continued to grow in such man
ner that the owner would rub his hands with
giee as each fresh beauty was developed.

rRoME is horror! Rome is help

These were the words used BY
Rev. DIR. Potter few days ago ir

of the Catholic Congress. 1t is
about time that utterances of this
kind should stop. Knownothing.
ism is dead, and they belong to
that disgraceful past. Those who
try to continually raise up religious
animosity in the land of religious
freedom are enemies of our free in
stitutions. Why, there never was
statesman in the country of any
note who called attention to these
dreadful things about the Catholic
church's fearful designs on the
government which some illiberal
men are continually conjuring up
without shadow of evidence to
support them. The evidence is
rather against the wild views they
take. Catholics discovered Amer
lea. Catholics, suffering untold
hardships, explored its interior.
From the Atlantic into the far
West they lay down their lives
preaching, teaching and discover
ing, and it must be admitted that
their weapon of conquest, like
that of the Quakers in
what is now the United States,
is only peace. From the date of
the Declaration of Independence
down to the present time, Catholics
have contributed their full share to
the progress and develnpement of
the common country. In the hour
of need they were never known to
fail They have fought in every
battle and would do it again if nee
essary. And it is the general COM
mentary of the almost universal |
press that the Catholic Congress |
was a credit to the United States
for its thoroughly American senti-
ments.
1t seems too bad, therefore, in
the face of all these things, that
men should allow their rrejudices
to find vent in such expressions as
those used by DIR. Potter. 1t is
wrong. Keep down the religious
prejudices. The country is not for
sects. 1t is the land of religious
freedom.-Springfield Democrat.
