ing of st. Augustine, the first papsl
missionary to England, and the tent
within which the mass was celebrated
is supposed to cover the exact ground
upon which the missionary landed, al
though the waters have long since re-
ceded to a considerable distance. Rt.
Rev. Herbert Vaughan, Cardinal
Archbishop of Westminster, himself
pontifcated, and assisting him were
Bishops Whiteside of Liverpool,
Groundlow of Clifton, Iseley.of Birming-
ham, with all the remaining bishops of
the church in England and Scotland
arrayed in full vestments were within
the temporary sanctuary. The con-
gregation numbered. one thousand and
included imany Catholic members of
the nobility and aristocracy. After
the service the participants went to
Canterbury, where Bishop John Butt
of the diocese of Southwark held re-
ception in ST. Augustine's Abby. At
the conclusion of the mass this morn
ing Cardinal Vaughan announced that
the Holy Father had granted certain
indulgences to those taking
part in the celebration and confe-
renee.

WHAT GIRLS ARE DOING.
The Beginnings, Ends and Aims of
Clubs Which They
Have Formed,

From Harper's Bazaar.
Theater parties and theater clubs are as
popular as ever. There are very few girls
who are not fond of going to the theater.

some like comedy, some tragedy. and some
comic opera; but one and all. with few eX-
ceptions, rarely refuse an invitation Ito

MORE HOME MADE GIFTS.
No End to the Dainty Things That
May BE Prepared for the De-
light of Friends.

One of the newest home made gifts of the
year is the muff rack. In this day of long
haired furs it is the hardest thing possible
to keep a mutf from getting crushed, and
the muff rack has sprung into existence.
The simplest muff rack is made of a Sec
ton of a pole, cut about eighteen inches
long and wound in all sorts of fancy ways
with broad. soft ribbon, first having been
slipped into a case like a bolster, and all
the superfluous room filled up with scent.
The ribbons this year are most frequently
college colors, are made into Il full 10
settle of bows and ends. at each end of the
rack, with one long loop at each end ty
which it may be hung from hooks that
are in the bottom of a shelf in your closet.
When your muff is off duty the bow is
slipped through it and it is swung up in
mid-air, free from pressure of any kind,
and slowly becoming perfume-soaked.
Rack number two is much more intricate.
as 1t has side supports. across which the
pole on which the muff hangs is laid. 1t is
intended to stand on a shelf instead of
swinging beneath. 1t Is made in the same
way as the first one described.
Every. woman should use wire shoulders
upon which to hang her coats; but. alas!
she does not. A pretty gift is made by
covering these wire frames with delicate
colored silks: making the slips full Dy
adding the special kind Of scent that the
woman to whom they are to be presented
affects. Don't use the kind you like In
stead. for they are made for her. a set of
three or four of these frames is a dainty,
useful present, shows thought and costs
almost nothing but time and dainty work.
Much as they are talked of, there Is not
one woman in a thousand who has scented
Innings for her bureau drawer. They must
fit, and you don't know the measure? The
successful Siver would find it out. The
Innings should be made of linen or muslin
and stitched into ribbed compartments.

Christmas dispensing the gifts. is another
simple way of pleasing the children. As a
successful children's party, Father Christ
mas had a small room off a larger one for
his cave. where he. with large bags Of
gifts on his back. careered on roller skates,
much to the amusement of the young folks,
who enjoyed the performance immensely.
\ simple way of giving presents to young
children is by means of the Christmas
bag and is thus carried out: Make some
good sized bags of colored tissue paper,
and in each place the little presents intend
ed to be given, chocolates, sweets, etc.
Then tie a string or piece of narrow ribbon
round the top. Suspend a broad piece of
ribbon from a hook in the ceiling, a hook
where q lamp or a chandelier may hang is
suitable. to the end of the ribbon place an
" to this last hook by means of a loop in
the ribbon or string which, Is tied round
the top. Provide a long. light stick. which
may be ornamented with colored strips OF
the tissue paper. Each little child is blind
folded in turn and the stick put into Its
hand; the child is then led within. reach OF
the bag and told to strike it. If he sue
ceeds in his aim and tears a hole in 1t.
the toy or present becomes his. and an
other child is blindfolded, and another bag
suspended from the hook. When the bag
containing the sweets is put up. and a
shower of sugar plums fall out and are
scattered on the hoor, the little ones have
a good scramble for them. Each child
should be allowed six trials in striking the
bag. and those that are unsuccessful IN
tearing it. must wait for their next trial,
till ali the others have had their turns.
1.-The Christmas Bag is always greatly
appreciated by children and will be found
to be an easy and popular way of distrib-
uting presents.

very little trouble, and causes much fun

a large sheet of looking glass should be
