Wash1ngton's Birthday.

The natal day of the founder of this
great republic is not as fully observed
as it should be, owing to the fact, per-
haps. that republics, as in the times of
Rome best DAYS, are ungrateful. Our
popular idols do not endure; We grow
away from them too rapidly. because
we are continually fashioning new
state deities out of the legislative ma
terial in hand. But this should not be,
especially in so far as Washington is
concerned, for to forget him is equiva-
lent to FORGETTING our parents. Let all
true patriots. then, give at least a
thought to him and always take the st.

nections for other important points.

ESOUIMAUX MARRIAGES.

Finally Marry.
When an Esquimaux wants a bride

is compelled to pull his hearts elect out
of her paternal home by her hair. Ar
irving at tn bridegroom's dwelling she
wears her hair unbound as sign of
sorrow. and tries repeatedly to run
awav, but is always Overtaken, until
after fortnight she resigns herself to
her fate and remains with her husband.
Should she not care for her sutton she
continues running away until the man
becomes tired Of hunting her up and
lets her 60 But if he IS deeply in love,
he does not give her up. but resorts to
the cruel remedy of cutting the soles of
her feet with sharp instrument. By
the time these wounds have healed she
has usually relented. Not wanting the
man in question under any circumstan-
ces, the girl cuts off her hair and runs.
AS she in this way renounces marriage
forever, theextremity is seldom resorted
to. The men. as a Iule. have only one
wife, but occasionally they take moro.
The first wife, though, is generally the
most important. and she is sure to re-

JON q Religious Society.

It would be we'll for every Catholic to
belong to some strictly religious society,
either to the Sodaiity Of the Blessed
Virgin. the Third Order of st. Francis.
the Society of st. Vincent de Paul. the
Confraternity of the Holy Rosary. or
that Of the Sacred Heart Of Jesus. and
why?
st. Bernadine says that. as a member
OF such societies. a man lives more holy
and falls into sin less frequently and
less griev0usly. He arises from his fall
more easily, walks with greater caution
and is more copiouslY believed with
