SILENCE.

Silence in the sense of absolute still
ness, is almost unknown in nature.
! In her lonelieSt shrine there is nearly
always a world of small noises, of stir
rings and rustlings, culver of leaves,
hum of insects, stir of fiowerets and
grass blades, song of birds-only in
the desOlate Arctic regions, or the
painless desert, does the explorer
enter into the realms of absolute
silence, and then it is oppressive and
terrible. Noise itself may be missed.
The Dorset poet writes truly when
he speaks of the over worked mother
complaining of the NOISY fun of her
children but chronicles show how, in
later years, when the family was scat
tered, some married, some dead, " the
lonelyold woman looks back to by-gone
days, land she do wish, with idle
tears, to have again about her earsn
the very noise which once stunned
her.
How terrible is the quietude which
settles over the household after the
death of child how dull the silence
that pervades the establishment after
the return of the boys to school, albeit
every one had previously grumbled at
their ''incessant noise.n
1t is said that miller's wife, leav
ing the mill after the death of her
husband, suffered so much from still
ness through missing the clack of the
machinery, that she made her servant
bring the coffee-mili into her bedroom
every evening and grind her to
sleep"
Like other grievances, noise itself
may be incurred when missed"
The professed foes of noise often in
crease what they attempt to destroy.
Name Inc, and you break me-" is an
old riddle, but not apparently one al.

4 SERIOUS CASE.

Uncle Silas was very honest and
pious old colored man who preached
on Sundays and had Il great influence
for good upon the others in the set
Element. During one of his revival
seasons, among a dozen or so at the
mourners' bench was black boy
called Eph, about twenty years old
and for a long time unregenerate.-
Uncle Silas was greatly rejoiced to
see him to come forward, and at
once went to him. Eph was crying.
"Hain't no use in my comm up"
he sobbed. Use sinned away de day

No you amt, brudder," protested
Uncle Silas. you am de kin what

"Tse dun dun dat, Uncle Silas,"
sobbed Eph, "but dey amt no saliva

Yes, dey is. too, honey. Dey amt

confessed the penitent.
''Dat's all fuggib, Eph'm.'
But dem two was you'n, Uncle
Silas. Dem fat pullets you low'd so

What dat ?" exclaimed Uncle Silas
suddenly.
"Dem las two wuz yo' pullets, I'm

Uncle Silas became solemn and
stern.

lie Speaks on Catholic Schools aud the
American Constitution.

WASHINGTON. u. c., November 30
a reception was given 10 Archbishop Sa-
TOLL this evening by the students and IA
Guilty Of Gonzaga College In this city. He
made a brief address In Italian. I'm which
he explained his position regarding Catho-
lie schools. BY way OF beginning, he
paid tribute to the American custom
OF observing a Thanksgiving-Day, and
said that Catholics should be the first
both To recognize the benefits OF God and
10 thank him for them.
Referring 10 the American Constitution.
he said: Whoever seriously meditates
on the principles OF the American COnsti-
tuition. whoever Is acquainted with the
present condition OF the American re-
public should be persuaded that the ac-
ton OF the Catholic faith is favorable In
every way 10 the direction I'm which the Con
stitution turns Further, the more the pub
lie opinion and the government shall IA
Vor the Catholic schools, the more and
more will the welfare Of the common
wealth be advanced. Catholic education
is the surest safeguard OF the Consttu-
ton and the best guide Of the republic
IN civil progress. That Is the sincere eK-
presslon OF my convictions. Up 10 the
present time II has been ineXplicable TO
me what was the origin Of the suspicion
that my views were not favorable TO
Catholic schools. Every Catholic school
IS a safeguardan OF youth, and place
OF trimming where the American youth
are ST0r1sht up for the advantage OF the
church and the country.
