It's A Mighty Cold Dav.

In January when Pe-ru-na fails to
keep you warm. When the clustering
blasts of Winter envelop your body in
their icy embrace, and seem to freeze
your very marrow; when you SILVER
and shake with the cold chills that
creep over you anG pierce YOU to the
very bone; then it is that you will find,
if you try it, that there is nothing so
comfortably warming and SO mildly
invigorating as this same Pe-ru-na.
sending a genial glow through your
chilled system, it will start your blood
a-coursing through your veins, put new
life and vigor into you, and make you
feel altogether like new man. The
effect of Pe-ru-na in this respect is
wonderful, and is manifested by no
other medicine AS a Stomach Medi-
cine and Tonic it has no equal, and
needs only to be tried to prove its
efficiency. For record of what Pe-ru-na

Mr.. Wanamaker seems to have
the proper idea Of the relations
that should exist between a mem
Der of the cabinet and the people,
as represented in the House of
Representatives. He told the
members of the House committee

paid him a social visit, that he
hoped they would call on him as
often as they needed informa-
ton on postal matters, and that
there was nothing private in the

6. IL. Howard, Writing in the Catholic
WoHd on The English Language in Cath

ior the growth of Protestant Episcopalian-
ism IN this country-a growth proportion
ateiy far IN excess Of the increase in the
general population, and dependent almost
exclusively upon births and accessions
from other Protestant bodies; growth
which exempli6es the secret of the ac-
cumulation Of material wealth-making
and saving, taking from Others and hold,
ing what Is taSen-the reasons, we say, for
TINS growth are not hard to discover. They
are found IN the fact that the Anglican
Church, and her daughter in this country,
has had the prodigious advantage of in
fiuencing the people by the public use of
many of the choicest parts of Catholic
liturgy. having them constantly and i'm.
pressively read in the churches. Ii is a
question well worth asking, whether the
Catholic Church is not thus placed al a
disadvantage by sect EMPLOYING her di,
vine offices to better advantage las prom

1t is most earnestly to be desired that the
church should properly identify herself
and form closer contact and union with
the intellectual forces of the nation. II
Will require extraordinary efforts to bring
about proper understanding between
these forces, overwhelmingly Protest
ant, and the church. The executive
and legislative branches of the Govern
ment. the Judiciary, the universities and
colleges, the public-school system, the
press and persons of distinction and innu-
ence In all walks and professions, are. in
the main, actively or negatively arrayed
against the church. We maintain that in
English-speaking countries, and brought
face TO face with intelligent English
speaking Protestants, the Catholic Church
cannot successfully hold her own, still less
draw, as she should, from the Protestant
bodies, confronted as she is with the disad-
vantages of having another body or bodies
using in their public worship the Roman
ritual translated into English. Especially
is this true when the body mainly instru-
mental in doing this arrogates to itself the
name of Catholic, adopts the externals of
Catholicity, and by the sophistries of
grave and learned champions presents to
the unlearned or the credulous deceptive
arguments in favor of the truth OF its
claims. To give the Catholic Church a
proper standing in our age, a standing of
acceptance to nineteenth-century intellect
whether Protestant or Catholic-con.

A BURGLARS EXPLOIT.
How the Notorious Billy Forester Out
witted a Denver Policeman.
From the Chicapo Herald


witted Denver Policeman.
From the Chicago Herald
night watchman who was EMPLOYED to
protect a jewelry store in Denver against
the ravages of thieves was neatly o1twit
ted by the notorious Billy Forester some
years before his death. The firm carried
an immense stock of gems and kept them
in large old-fashioned safe. Forester
had, by long years experience, become so
familiar with safes of that pattern that he
could tell when to reverse and when to
turn the knob forward by placing his ear
close to the door above the combination,
and IN this way could open the safe in q
short time. BY taking wax impression
OF the keyhole he made a key for the front
door. Having previously located the safe
IN the store, he was now ready to begin.
1t was cold, snowy, stormy night, about
l0 O'Clock, and Forester walked up to the
store with an air of ownership and I'M
locked the door. He carried small SAM
pie case in his hand. Going in he turned
up the gas in the rear of the store and then
shook down the stove. He leisurely worked
the combination to the safe, and in less
than half an hour he had before him
thousands of dollars worth of costly Jewels
and watches. At this very interesting
point the night watchrGan came in.
Good evening"" said the cordial burg
lar as he continued to remove valuables
from the safe 10 his sample case. "Come
back to the fire and warm yourself; it is
very cold out tonight"
The patrolman allowed that it was. and
sauntered back to the stove
Pm packing up my samples" went ON
the thief suavely. "Going out on the road
in the morning and thought would get
ready tonight. There, isn't that beauty?'
he asked, holding out an elegant Jurgen-
sen for the watchman to examine.
In this way Forester packed over $4,000
worth of gems and watches into the sam
pie case, chatting cheerfully with the night
watchman all the while.
As he was about to close his sample case
he stopped suddenly as if struck by happy
thought and then picked up very pretty
ring. Turning to the watchman he asked
him if he had wife. The watchman had,
and with careless laugh Forester tossed
him the ring, saying: "Give her that and
tell her it is a mark of appreciation for the
faithful services performed by her hus-
band"
The brilliant guardian of other peoples
property was delighted, and was unusually
wide-awake all the rest of the night. 1t
was not until the next morning that he
became aware of the hoax that had been
practiced upon him. Forester by that
time was we'll out of the way, and his con-
nection with the robbery was not discov-
cred till few days before his death, when
he confessed it.

What Women Like in Men.


Women, think, like manly, not lady
like men.
They like honesty of purpose and con-
sideration.
They like men who believe in women.
They like their opinions to be thought
of some value.
They like man who can be strong as a
lion when troubles come, and yet, if one is
nervous and tired, can button up shoe
and do it with an amount of consideration
that is mental and physical bracer-up.
They like man who can take hold of
the baby, convince it of his power, and
get it to sleep after they have been worry
ing with it and walking with it until their
eyes are tired and they feel as if they had
no brains.
They like man who is interested in
their new dresses, who can give an opinion
on the fit and who is properly indignant at
any article written against women.
They like a man who knows their in
nocent weaknesses and caters to them;
who will bring home a box of candy, the
last new magazine or the latest puzzle
sold on the street, that will dc more than
its duty in entertaining everybody for the
whole evening.
They like man who is master of the
situation-that is, who has brain enough
to help woman to decide what is the
best thing to do under the circumstances,
and who has wit enough 10 realize, when
one of the fairer sex is slightly stubborn,
that persuasion is more powerful than all
the arguments in the world
They like man who likes them-who
doesn't scorn their opinions who believes
in their good taste; who has confidence
in their truth, and who, best of all, knows
that the love promised is given him.
That's the sort of man woman likes.
and her every sigh of satisfaction. as his
virtues are mentioned, is little PRAYER
that .says, God bless him.D-Lqdiss

AT A MASQUERADE.
An Amusing Incident at a Boston
Party.

An Amusing Incident at Boston
Party.
1t was in town not a thousand miles
from Boston that there were recently
given couple of masked parties at pri-
vate houses. AT the second of these the
hostess of the first party found herself
talking very amiably with a mask in
whom she supposed herself to recognize a
gentleman who had come to the town inst
after her own entertainment. Simply for
the sake of making conversation. and of
throwing the gentleman off the scent as 20
her own identity, she asked:
Were you at Mrs. Blanks masked
party~
NO." he answered, "I was not honored
with an invitation"
"Were you here at the time? ?" she
asked.
EYES," he answered, "but Mrs. Blank
does not like me-"
CONSERVATION seized upon Mrs. Blank,
but she instantly determined not to betray
herself.
Doesn't She" she returned carelessly.
Probably that is one of the things which
you imagine. Some people are always
supposing that others do not like them,
you know"
Her companion seemed trihe ANNOYED.
ii am not one of that Sort" he retorted
rather brusquely. Besides she has inti-
mated to me that she did not like me-"
as it fair to ask how g' Mrs. Blank
asked, entirely mystifed in regard to the
identity of her interlocutor.
"Why, should not mind telling you if
| were sure you wouldn't repeat it,
"Oh, never betray a confidence" the
lady said eagerly.
The gentleman leaned over until his
face under its mask was near to hers.
Il asked her to marry me-"
Mrs. Blank was more startled than ever.
The train of her old suitors, and in her
day she had had not a few. came up be-
fore her mental vision, and she wondered
which one of them chance had brought to
her side tonight, but in vain.
'But," she said slowly, because lady
refused you it need not follow that she
disliked you. i am sure woman is not
to be supposed to dislike every man she
does not wish to marry. That would be a
most absurd assumption"
"To be sure it would" he assented cheer
fully; shut in this particular case she did
not refuse me-
"Did not refuse you p' echoed Mrs. Blank
in astonishment. "She certainly did not
accept your
THAT is precisely what she did do"
at is not - Mrs. Blank began. and
then considering that if she said true it
would be showing more knowledge Of Mrs.
Blanks affairs than was compatible with
pretending to be another person. she
changed her sentence and said acredita-
bic that she should accept you and then
marry another man,
"She didn't, Kate" her husband said in
his own voice, "she married me-"
"Tom r she cried.
"Yes, my DEAR" Tom answered, siyou
told me at our party that 1 couldn't fool
you"
You are wretch and a monster she
declared, 3and | viii never forgive you"
But she did. and told the joke at her
own expense before the evening was over.
