O'Connen and Massey.

Laughter has been fatal to at least
one bill in the house OF commons. In
the days of O'Connell Thomas Massey,
who was n sworn foe to everything
that suggested popery. introduced n
bill to abolish the suifix mas" from all
words in our language and to substi-
tute tide" thus converting Christ
mas" into "Christtide." and so on.
When he had ended his Introductory
speech. O'Connell got up and said:
"Since the honorable member has such
an insuperable objection to the word
mas why does he not set a good ex-
ample by anglicizing his own name?
In that case we should be quite willing
to speak of him as Thotlde Tidey."
The house rolled with appreciative
laughter, and Mr.. Massey never recov-
cred sufficient courage to speak of the
bill again

INTERVIEWED THE POPE.
An American Lad Who Was Recently

An American Lad Who Was Recently
Received By His Holiness
Harry Steele Morrison, an American
boy, has interviewed Pope Leo XIII,
for the New York Journal. He visited
Rome with a letter of introduction to
the PapaI secretary, who, after learn
ing that Morrison had interviewed
Queen Victoria, the president OF
France and several other dignitaries of
Europe, presented him to His Holiness.
so you are an American boy" said
the Pope in pure English. Il am very
glad to see you. l do not believe I
have had an American boy to call on
me for a long, long time, and l am
very fond of boys and of America.
l suppose you are from New York;"
l bowed and said Yes" writes
young Morrison.
THAT must be a great city," con-
tinued the Pope. Have you seen the
cathedral there?" | told him that I
had visited the cathedral many times.
1T must surely be very beautiful, -
said the Pope. Then. continuing, he
said; II have had many Americans to
see me this spring and summer. Many
hundreds of them came over on one
ship, and they were all in st. Peters
one day. 1t was a great compliment
to me that they had come so far and
it is a compliment to me that you have
come so far.
You have seen many things that [
have never SEEM he said. 1T is a
good thing for young man to travel.

from countless throats ring out two
names-the names katherine McCor-
mack had heard that afternoon as she
sat in the shelter of her favorite nook.
Hiding longer was useless, the I'M
fortunate men knew. Armed only
with clubs they could do little in face
of such a force. They did what the
young leader knew, or at least strongly
suspected they would do-they came
forth piteouSly craving for mercy. And
as they stood surrounded by the torch
armed crowd, up the little pier came
the old life-SaVer, secure from all harm.
side. The crowd parted and the three
stood before the two cravenfaced
men.
There was silence for a brief space.
The old life-saver lifted his hat and
the crowd did likewise. They knew the
GOd-fearing old man too well to eN-
pect aught save words of forgiveness
from his lips
God forgive you, men, as freely as 1
do, for your willingness to rob me, a
poor, defenseless old man. of what was
not my own. AS He has protected me,
why should l chastise you?
But, men, | say to you, on your

ing you from your intended crime, the

terrible accident in another, an Of
fering that, please God, I'll bring to
them tomorrow"
For shame!" muttered voice in the
crowd, just audibly.
For Sh'- Every voice would have
swelled in a cry of dereision, but the
old man raised his hand and command
ed silence by the simple gesture.
" Let him who is without sin cast
the first stone let us say with the
Master" came reverently from the old
life-saver's lips, as he looked around
upon the villagers, who glared at the
two prisoners. Then, turning toward
the two. he said, gently:
Depart in peace. Old Tom, the life
saver. knows you; he knows you are
not idle men in need of bread. Go to
work tomorrow men, but remember
that your honest life is the price of my
silence about tOnights work. My boat
is fast here by the pier. Row your
selves across and leave it moOred on
the other side, by the quarry, for me.
Go, men, and-GOd keep you from
harm!"
They rowed away in the torchlight
glimmer. while the whole procession
escorted old Tom, Katherine and Ben
jamin to the cottage.
1t is needless to say that Ben from
that hour was the hero of the village.

where she Sewed OF. read. penned her
pure thoughts on the white pages Of
her diary. studied the few books of re-
ligiouS instruction the visiting priest
left her, sketched in simple words the
stories Of the saints, or even wrote i'm
aginary tales about children Of the sea
and shore. The study and thinking and
writing all went afteTward to make
happy the Catechism class that gath

round.
one afternoon. as the girl sat shell

strange voices attracted her attention
coming from behind the cliff. At first
she was Indifferent, thinking the speak

realizing that they We're seating them
selves for a private conversation, she
resolved to seek another Well-knoWn

upon her ear that chained her to the
spot. and led her to strain every nerve

A POOR LITTLE GIRL

(Joseph Dana Miller in Criterion.O
She never ran with hoop, nor blew
Soap bubbles out of a pipe, nor knew
In all her days what a world of fun
1t was to scamper and jump and run
She was born 10 wealth and house of
pride,
And must be proper and dignitied.
Dear little girl, am sad for you;
They have tilched your world of its rose
ate hue;
They have robbed the sweets OF your
childish play
And stolen your years and your dreams
away;
And you are little girl no more,
Poor little martyr in pinafore.
| frankly own l should shrink to face
Your accusing eyes at the throne of grace;
| tremble to think what the King may
To the culprit crouched at the judgment
seat
Who has taken child that was made to
sing
And stified the song deceived the King!

violence. that L sink not altogether IN

You must know something of books.

You should study it, then. 1t is a
wonderful training for young mans

His Holiness then asked me to tell
him something of the people whom |
have interviewed. and of the ways in
which | succeeded in seeing them. He
seemed vastly amused at some things
that | said, and was much interested
in all.
You American boys have great per-
severance" was all that he said when
l finished.
What do you expect to follow as a
career?" was the next question.
Il hope to be a newspaper man." l
said. His Holiness hesitated before re-
plying.
THAT is a good career if you follow
it properly he said. But writer
for the press has nowadays great re-
sponsibility. The press is a powerful
agency for god or evil in the world,

and bring about justice. 1t is Won

said I, hoping he would have some
thing to say in regard to them.
The Pope sighed. Yes" he said, in
low voice, very, very many. 1t is
very unfortunate" And that was all
he had to say on the subject.

CHAPTER, XVIII.

Son, take it not to heart if some peo-
pie think ill of thee and say of thee
what thou art not willing to hear.
Thou oughtest to think worse things of
myself and to believe no one weaker
than myself
If thou walkest interiorly, thou wilt
make small account of flying words
from without.
1t is no small prudence to be silent
in the evil time, and to turn within
to Me, and not to be disturbed with
the judgment of man.
Let not thy peace depend on the
tongues of men; for whether they put
good or bad construction on what
thou doest, thou art still what thou
art.
Where is true peace or true glory ?
Is it not in Me? And he who neither
desireth to please nor feareth to dis
please men shall enjoy much peace.
From inOrdinate love and vain fear
ariseth all disquiet of heart and dis
traction of the senses.

Where thy dear form once lay,
