Bishop McFauls lecture, Erin and

Spain. The Bishop gave this lecture re-
Gently in the Catholic Lyceum, Camden,
and the Post of that city said of the dis
course: ''The eloquent and learned pre-
late captured and held his large audience
spell bound from beginning to end. Were
Spain ten times more a Catholic country
than she is, it would not deter the Catho-
lies of the United States from fighting for
their country and bearing aloft its Starry
Banner to victory. This was the key
note of the earnest address. Don't fail

There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be consti-
tutional disease and therefore requires con
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only eonstitu
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes
timonials. Address,

When wear begins to exceed repair in
your body you are going to fall sick. The
signs of it are: loss of flesh, paleness,
weakness, nervousness, etc. The repair
needed is food You think you eat enough,
and yet you feel that you wear out more
tissue, energy, nerve-force, than your food
makes for you. The difficulty is that you
do not digest enough. And this is SO seri-
GUS it is worth sitting down seriously tC
think about. If you can't digest what
you eat, take a few doses of Shaker Di.
gestive Cordial. The effect of it will be
to increase your flesh and make you feel
stronger. You won't fall sick Proof
that it is in control of your repair appara-
tus. It's easy enough to test this fol
yourself. Take few bottles of Shaker
Digestive Cordial
Sold by druggists at 10 cents to $1.0C
per bottle.

Can there he any possible harm In
killing owls for women's hats?" ex-
claimed New York milliner to a
member of the Audubon Society the
other day. "Of what use are the hor-
rid creatures to anybcdy?"
The pretty milliner was quite sur
prised when told that owls were very
useful birds. Owls eat the field mice
and other small rodents that work
great injury to the farmer. and every
ore that is lost not only means a me-
mace to the farmers, but distinct loss
to agriculture.
DR.. c. Hart Merriam, ornithologist of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture, has estimated that in offerins
q bounty on owls and hawks, which.re-
suited in the killing Of more than 100,-
600, the State of Pennsylvania sustain
ed a loss CT nearly $5,0o0,00o in one
year and half.

The First po,ar Explorer.

The hardy mariners who were the
pioneers in polar discovery achieved
wonders, considering that they had ev-
erything to learn about the methods of
rctic work, ard their vessels and
equipments were very inadequate. One
of the greatest of all arctic voyagers
was the man who commanded the first
rue polar expedition, William Ba-
erts. He sailed from Holland in
534 on the little fsh,ng-smack
1erct rirs, ard the object of his
foyage shows how ignorant the
merchants and se2men of those
lays were IS to the navgs bility of arc

In the year 1916 the Grand Duke

Charlotte was given to under
,tard by her parents that a
nion with the grand duke was great
Y desired by them. During supper

)laying absently with ring, he told
ler that he had made careful study
{ her character and disposition, and
Aat he found her in every quality best
alcula;ed to make him happy in we'd
ed life.
While talking, he thrust the ring In
o q rcll of bread beside his place, and
lshed her to signify her consent to be-
,ome his wife by taking up the ring.
Presently the princess. in most un-
concerned way, took Up the roll as if

Soon afterward magnificent wedding

Message on a Bansnote.

Some years ago the cashier of Liv-
erpool merchant received a Bank of
England note, which he held up to the
..ght to make sure it was genuine. In SC
doing, he noticed some very indistinct
red marks, as if words had been traced
on the front of the note and on the
margin, and out of curiosity he tried to
decipher them. At length he made out
the following sentence:
''If this note should fall into the
hands of John Dean of Longhillmar, be
will learn thereby that his brother is
languishing prisoner in Algiers."
Mr.. Dean. on being shown the note,
lost no time in asking the government
for assistance, and finally secured the
freedom of his brother on payment Of
a ransom to the Bey. The unfortunate
man had been a prisoner for eleven
years, ard had traced, with a piece Of
wood for pen, and his own blood for
ink, the message on the bank note, in
the hope of its being seen sooner or
later
