AS far ss we have been able to observe
Catholic editors have refrained from
mixing politics with religion in their re-
plies to the advocates Of Knewnothlng-
ism. The dark lantern associations are
speedily organized to ostracize Catholics
from all positions Of trust in the gift OF
the people, and it is unnecessary to say
that it is the duty of Catholics to watch
the oftice-seekers who give aid and en-
couragement to their enemies, and
slauI liter them with ballots and not bull

The Times gives the following item
about the popular pastor of the Church
of the Redeemer, who recently paid a
high compliment to the Catholic Church:
Rev. M. D. Shutter might as we'll make
up his mind to 20 into the Catholic
Church now as any time. He was evil
IDENTIFY built for a priest, and it is no
wonder that people sometimes size him
up for one OF the Catholic clergy, al
though some people have spotted him
for an advance agent for theatrical
troupe. The latest person to find him
out is new colored waiter at the West
Hotel. Last Friday when DR.. Shutter
sat down to dinner, he told the new
waiter that he did not care to order from
the bill of fare, but he wanted the waiter
to bring him anything that was good in
the kitchen. The waiter said eyes, Sir"
but it was evident that he was puzzl ed,
and he soon broke out as follows: "Ex-
cuse me, but do you eat meat on Fri
days"

The New York city conncil of the Irish
National Federation Of America had a
conference Sunday in Cooper Union, the
object of which was to agitate for q bet
ter organization of the Irish Americans
in New York oily to prepare for the com.
ing general election in Great Britain and
Ireland. Patrick Gleason presided. John
J. Ryan, the secretary of the National
Federation, said that at present New
York was not occupying her proper place
in the list of cities interested in Irish
freedom and that organization was me-
ceesary. Major John Byrne made a
speech, part of which was devoted to rich
Irishmen who did not give freely to the
cause. ut Is fact" he said, THAT the
greater numb of Irishmen who attain
riches in this country turn their backs
on their struggling countrymen." Meet
ings at Cooper Union will be held every
Sunday for few weeks and practical
work of organizing branch councils will
be carried on.

ARCHBISHOP WALSH, Of Toronto, has 9
true appreciation of the character OF the
PIP. A. of Canada, whose aims and OBJ
jects are exactly the same as those OF the
A. P. A. of the United States. In re-
cent sermon he said: ut is the duty OF
all the Catholics, among other things, to
pray for the Church and the clergy, as
the Church is passing through storm
of persecution brought on by a body of
fanatics, whose spirit is nothing less than
that of the demon, because it uld en-
anate from no other source. But they
(Catholics) should not be discouraged;
because the Church that had conquered
empires by her endurance and patience
would very easily conquer this hell-born
society that has sprung up in our midst
and which seems to interfere with the
rights of Catholic citizens

PRENDERGAsr, the assassin Of Garter

Brentano be be hanged Oh March 23rd,
which happens this year to be Good FRI
day. He will not be hanged on that day,
however, for two fold reason. Grim
mails are never executed on the annivers-

attorneys gave notice Of an appeal and
will apply on March s to the supreme
court for stay OF execution, which will
doubtless be granted. The higher court
will hear the case later on, and render
final Judgment. The order Of the lower
court will most probably be sustained,
but the crank's life will be spared for
several months. Prendergast's talk in
the court plainly indicates that though a
crank he has sufficient sense to know

HE Germans have been generally con-

them the palm for superiority, and one Of

many, beware the day when thy school

A. o. II. NATIONAL CONVENTION

A. Q. II. NxAI1ONAA NONvEN AA0AS'
In last weeks issue Of The IRISH
STANDARD we printed the call for the
national convention of the Ancient Ord-r
of Hibernians which opens at Omaha,
Neb., on May 8. In connection with
the call The IRISH STANDARD threw
out suggestion as to the advisability OF
the Minnesota Hlbernians chartering a
epecial train for the occasion and turn
ing out in large numbers to attend s'con-
vention of so much Importance to every
member of the organization. We are
glad that our suggestion has metthe en-
dorsement of Rev F. p. Kervick, the
State Secretary OF tie Order, who sends
us the following Communication:
P1pEsToNE, MINI, Feb. Goth, 1894.
Dear Sir and Brother:
Your proposition is just to the point.
What would prevent US carrying out
such plan as q special train? See the
Minneapolis, st. Paul and Duluth, also
the LIE Sueur county people. I am sure
we could make success of your plan if
all who intend to 20 to Omaha would
take the practical view and make an at
tempt to carry it out. Real action is
necessary, and time will not permit OF
discussing any theories. Keep the idea
booming for it. fits the case; and if sue
cess crowns the plan Minnesota will be
we'll represented for the first time at a
National convention. Would that every
county decided to send delegate, for
this Is to be very serious convention,
as there will be acomplete change OF
national officers, and it is time for the
West, and especially the great North
Star State, to have hand in the ma
tional government. What do you say
Messre. County Delegates? l will aid
you to the best of my ability to ensure
success to the proposed plan of special
train. Yours Fraternally,
..... ~. F. P. KERv1cK, S. S.
As the State Secretary truly says it
would be agrand thing to see every
county in Minnesota, where the Order
exists, represented at the Omaha con-
vention, and it can be done. If you want
to help Hibernianism in the West here
is splendid opportunity. The distance
is not great and by chartering a special
train splendid rates can be secured.

TELL-TALE BRIGHT FACES.
The Greatest Strength GiVeF in
All the World.
The Highest Praise Given to Paine's
Celery Compound.
AS Much Superior to Patent Medi-
cines as a Diamond is to Cut
Glass.

Bright faces of those who praise
Paine's celery compound are more trust
worthy than all the multitude of sensa-
tional "affidavits" that are foisted on a
credulous public by the patent medicine
dealers in March, April and May.
1t is true that in the early spring, a
great majority OF people need some hon
est remedy to purify the blood and to
strengthen the nerves.
1t is wonderful how many people are
suffering from weakness and general de-
bility. There are many who are tired all
the time, who cannot sleep well, who
have no ambition, who lack appetite,
and are troubled in other ways particu.
larly at this season.
The nerves need food, the brain de-
mands nourishment, the blood must be
enriched, and the excretory organs must
be enriched, and the excrotory organs
must be stimulated; and in this COM
mon condition, which is often serious, it
has again and again been said, "There is
nothing so certainly good as Paine's Gel
cry compound"
1t makes people well!
Paine's celery compound, it must be re-
membered, is not a patent medicine. 1t

has been my greatest trouble, it having
been more than five years since my food
has tasted good and l have enjoyed it.
| have also suffered from nervousness.
Since taking Paine's celery compound l
am not nearly as nervous as was and l
sleep very much better. And / must say
that it is the only medicine that l have
ever taken that has given me an appetite
My greatest trouble has been poor appe-
tite and no strength; the least thing
would tire me all over. Why, feel
quite hungry at meal time now and my
husband will not let me be without the
medicine.
II consider it most excellent remedy
for the nervous, sleepless, and all who
are run down, and write this 10 express
my thanks for the great good it has done
me-"

ExperImenta With MIX.

Professor Uffelmann has made thor
ough investigation of the digestibility and
assimilation of cows milk, in the case
both of adults and infants, and it appears
that the latter possess an absorptive power
somewhat greater than that of the grown
man. The infant absorbs less albumen
and fatty materials than the man, but on
the other hand makes it up in solid sub
stances, and the sugar is completely alb
sorbed. As to the salts, while the infant
assimilates rs to rs per cent of those con-
tanned in the milk of its mother it absorbs
only 20 to 30 Of those contained in cows
milk, because in the first place the latter
holds much larger amount, and in the
second place the clots found in the in
fant's stomach are so much denser by this
milk that they interfere with absorption.
Some authors maintain that boiled milk,
and especially milk cooked under pressure,
is digested more easily than raw milk, but
Professor Uffelmann' g experiments contra
dict this entirely Again, all bodies added
to the milk which diminish the consist
ency OF the clots increase its digestibility.
The addition Of water-one part milk to
three of water-increases by almost per
cent the proportion of peptones contained
in the digested morsels. Diluting with
mucilaginous preparations assists this re-
suit more than water; the use of gum ara
bic is helpful; but, as the acid of the gum
is hurtful, 1t is necessary to add a small
quantity OF bicarbonate of soda.-Chicago

NOTICE TO INVENTORS.


There was never a time in the history
of our country when the demand for in
ventiOns and improvements in tho arts
and sciences generally was so great as
now. The conveniences of mankind in
the factory and workshop, the house
hold, on the farm, and in official life, re-
quire continual accessions to the appur-
tenances and implements of each in or
der TO save labor, time and expense.
The political change in the administra-
ton of government does not affect the
progress of the American inventor, who
being on the alert, and ready to perceive
the existing DEFICIENCIES, does not per-
nit the affairs of government to deter
him from quickly conceiving the rem
edy to overcome existing discrepancies.
Too great care can not be exercised in
choosing competent and skillful attor-
ney to prepare and prosecute an appli-
cation for patent. Valuable interests
have been lost and destroyed in innu-
merable instances by the employment
of incompetent counsel, and especially
is this ADVICE applicable to those who
adopt the "No patent no pay system.
Inventors who entrust their business to
this class of attorneys do so at imminent
risk as the breadth and strength of the
patent is never considered in view of
quick endeavor to get an allowance and
obtain the fee then due. THE PRESS
