PROPHECIES ABOUT EDWARD VI

PROPHECIES ABOUT EDWARD VII.
The assumption by the new King of
the style and title of Edward VII, IN
evitably brings to mind the old saying.
half history half prophecy, concerning
the restoration of the mass in England.
A lady, in a letter to an evening con-
temporary, quotes the following curious
prophecy referred to by correspon-
dent of Notes and Queries In 1880 as
having been repeated to him before the
accession of Queen Victoria:
In three hundred years and more
Sixth Edwards mass shall be laid low,
When Seventh Edward he shall reign
Sixth Edwards mass shall be sald
again.
A different version of the lines was
given by another correspondent in the
same year and their authorship was
attributed to Cardinal Pole:
Sixth Edwards mass 800 years and
more shall quiet be.
| But in Seventh Edwards reign again
restored shall be.
! 1t is curious how widely diffused was
the idea that some religious change
should take place in England 500 years
after the Reformation.
Still another version has been 1ur-
nished us by a correspondent:
| For three hundred years and more
Sixth Edwards mass shall be laid low;
When Seventh Edward he doth reign
Sixth Edwards Mass shall be again
The prophetic side of the ancient saw,
adds our correspondent, suggests many
ibones and is open to many interpreted
tons. But within the limits OF the
lCatholic Church it certainly seems to
he in the way of working itself into a
matter of fact, as may be seen by a
glance al the map of the Catholic do
ceses of England, and reference "a
| n mr.
land churches in the current Directory
The latter official record assures us
/ that upward of 1850 masses are now
said daily in EngIand.-London Tablet

DEAR AT ANY PRICE.

A wear ago the Great Northern rail-
road made arrangements with labor con-
tractors for 1900 Japanese workmen.
They were assigned to work on the ROAD
from Seattle to the North Dakota line
until some weeks ago, when the first OF
them were sent farther east. They look
the places of white men in all branches
and there were many who predicted the
necessity of excluding the japanese,
! lust as the Chinese were before them.
The fear, however, was Ill founded. Inc
railroad has come to the conclusion that
Japanese at 81 a day are more expensive
than white men at SIPS. Orders have
been given to discharge the japanese as
fast as their places can be filed.

ing over to my house this afternoon
about two O'Clock, and We will start
out and see what we can do and call
meeting tomorrow afternoon at-my
house." said Mrs. Brown. "All right,
and we will organize according to
Hoyle," replied Mrs. Holland. as she
tripped down the steps. Goodbye,
he on time" she called back.
Then Mrs. Brown flew at her work.
She made beds. swept. busted, pared
potatoes, and whipped fruit pudding
into the oven quicker than she ever
did before. She had a nice dinner
ready when her children and husband
came home.
'Hellow, anyone here?" asked Mr..
Brown. mo, what makes you think
so?" Nothing, only you look so kind
of glad" I'm glad to see my husband
and little folks" she replied, that's
all. and now sit right down to dinner,
it is ready and waiting" A hearty.
healthy, happy family, typical of thou
sands of Nebraska homes, partook of
the noon-day meal. Nellie, you may
wipe the dishes for me before you go
to school," said her mother. Nellie
looked up in surprise at the unusual
request. Mamma does many things
for you, dear, and now you can do
something to help her." "All right,
mamma" said the good-natured child.
The dinner work was done up in
short order. After all had gone Mrs.
Brown hurriedly dressed and was at
Mrs. Hollands by two O'Clock. She
found Mrs. Holland waiting full of ami
nation for the enterprise. She said
that just because she wanted to get rid
of her husband so she could get ready
without his knowledge he hung
around for an hour and half.
The two friends were more success
full than they bad dared to hope. Ev-
cry one they called On was delighted
with the idea. One woman said: %!
now can | come? | never have a mo-
ments time for myself from morning
till night | could not find time to
study, and if cannot keep up with the
club l would better keep out" Per
haps," said Mrs. Holland, you may
have my experience. 1t used to take

| have something pleasant to work for
and look forward to-" The very busy
little woman said she would surely be
1T Mrs. Browns the next afternoon, if
she possibly could.
That evening, Mrs. Brown had an
extra fire supper. Mr.. Brown stood
around afterwards with his thumbs in
the armholes of his vest and smoked
ana talked. Mrs. Brown told him
she thought of inviting some of her
friends on the following afternoon to
form a little society for mutual i'm
prcvements. She said: Il am forget
ting everything l ever did know, and

"Hdt uo ytu tiiuS VI IL, oroihc.
Fine, splendid. just the thing" said
Mr.. Brown. Great idca-anything I
cat do for you?" Yes. there is.
George: l wish you would block us out
a constitution. You see. We women
don't know very much and that Is why
we organize this society"
"All right" said her husband, "Tll
fix you starter. remember an old
constitution We had in our college So
cicty. and Ill just change II a little"
Mr.. Brown sat down to the writing
desk and started of with preamble
that as all men were created free and
equal. that society would meet for mu-
tual benefit, and wound up by pledg-
ing their lives, their fortunes and their
sacred honors to each other and the
cause. Mrs. Brown said that would
help them out all right and thanked
MIN over and ever again.
The next afternoon thirty ladies as
sembled in Mrs Browns parlors and
the very busy little woman had found
time to come, tco. Mrs. Brown was
elected president. That morning she
had found a formula for organizing
clubs. AS almost everyone else had
brought clippings of club doings in
other places they were soon in run
ming order. They decided, as 1t was the
first day of June, to call themselves
the Woman's June Club. II shall cali
it the Woman's June Society to Mr..
Brown" remarked their president
with twinkle in her eye, that plainly
told everyone present that that was
her way of dealing with her husband.
We'll, how went the society,"" asked
Mr.. Brown at the tea table. 20, just
splendidly. And We are so much OBJ
liged for the constitution you drew for
us. We are all started now and am
president" said the wife, "and we call
it the Woman's June Society because
we were organized on the first day of
June" Cute name," said Brown. "If
there is anything else can do for you
just let me know"
Mrs. Brown said very little about the
club after that, but how she did work
and study, and how different her life
seemed, and how the women all en-
joyed their club. 1t was a red letter
day in her life when one noon Jimmie
asked his father to tell him something
about an author. 4 critique of whose
life and characteristics she had just
prepared, and when Mr. Brown said he
did not know anything about it, she
told Jimmie she could help him, she
guessed. How surprised they all were
when she related the story of his life
and mentioned his principal works,
and repeated little gem from his
writings.
wy, mamma said Jimmie, Il new
er thought you knew" Il learned it
at the Society,"" said Mrs. Brown. 81
tell you that society is fine thing"
remarked her husband. You don't
seem like the same woman. How are
YOU getting along, constitution works
all risht?' Works like a charm"
replied his wife. Although she did not
see fl to tell him il was very much
revised before being presented to the
club for adoption.
One day, Mrs. Brown remarked af-
ter dinner just before her husband
started away: Our society is talking
about giving musical. l should like
to have it held here, but We have no
piano" We'll, let's get one," said

| asked her the other day where Rob
ert Burns was Dorn. She said she used
to know, but she had forgotten.
The children went Gathering down
the stairs and off to school, and their
mother stood still with a great ache
in her throat. Her Jimmie, her first
born, her pink and white dimpled
baby, whose little arms she used to
kiss so passiOnately. looked on her
now with sort of contempt She had
starved her own mind that she might
minister to the physical comforts of
her family; until now her husband
and children had passed her intellect
uaily, and she was left away down The
road alone. How long would it be be-
fore her influence over her growing
boys and little girl would be gone if
that was the opinion they were getting
of her? Ma is good, but she don't
know much" rang through and
through her head, and even her heart
strings took up the sad refrain.
A rap at the door startled Mrs
Brown from her musings, and she
opened it to find Mrs. Holland, a neigh
Dor, with crisp new sunbOnnet on
her hand. Good morning, Mrs.
Brown, isn't it just grand this morn
ing? How can you stay in the house?

woman had entered, taken a chair, and

up to view, before Mrs. Brown lad
had time to say word.
