imitation Of the habits of the aristo-
crat. Even were he a good model, the
result would be feeble; as he is an
averagely foolish, stupid and selfish
one. it is a national misfortune.
Hence English snobbishness, that
terrible all-pervading trait of English
society from top to bottom. Do what
you will, you cannot escape from it,
If you live long enough in tire coun-
try, you must inevitably succumb to
it; you cannot emancipate even your
of that pervasivc malady. For your
neighbors, your servants. your trades
men, your dependents, all judge you
and your acts, not by what you are
in yourself, but by the company you
keep, the county society you do or do
not know, the carriages with footmen
in the ordered hierarchy of the Lord
Chamberlain and his tlunkeys.. No one
is quite free from this hateful super
stition. One cannot isolate oneself alb
solutely from ones social atmosphere
= And all this is in part the effect
though in part the cause, of the con-
tinued existence of so absurd an an
ochronism as the British aristocracy.
1t may look picturesque when viewed
through a telescope from Boston or
San Francisco; but it looks vile and
loathesome when viewed at close quar-
ters from the heather-clad hills and
moors of Surrey. Every reformer in
England knows how fatal to the spir-
itual and intellectual life of the coun-
try, quite as much as to it's political
and social development, is this debas-
ing and degrading element in the COM
munity. England can never be free,
wholesome and whole-souled till she
has cast out forever these belated false
gods, and learned to pay homage at
the shrine of Genuine BITTERNESS.

A New American Saint.

Bishop Baraga. the apostle of the
Chippewas, is the latest candidate for
canonization among the ecclesiastics of
the United States. writes Father Ell
lott in the Catholic World Magazine.
Already the process of canonizing
Bishop Neumann has progressed
through it's earlier stages. Baraga is
a fellow countryman of Neumann's
He came to this country in 1920. He
began his ministry by preaching to the
nom Catholics of the West. He relates
an incident of his preaching in a
Protestant church in Ohio in secular
clothes, and he adds that 81 intended
to ask my bishop for permission to let
mo always travel around in the coun-
try to seek such lost souls, and stay
with each one until he should be thor
oughly instructed, baptized and
strengthened in the faith" But his
superiOrs considered the ministry
among the Indians more fruitful He
was sent to the northern peninsula of
Michigan, and there for many years
he lived and labored among the In
dams.
In his incessant journeys us priest
or bishop he often suffered untold
hardships, and bore miseries of every
description, being several times in i'm
minent danger of death. Nor did he
finch at the deadly cold of that eli
mate, often travelling many weary
miles on snow shoes, packing on his
back his personal baggage and all the
articles necessary for the holy sacri-
flee, sleeping under the open sky or in
some wretched Indian wigwam.
Meanwhile his abstinence was simply
miraculous. He would travel all day,
padding in canoe from dawn to
dark, or sliding painfully along OH
snow shoes through the trackless for
est, and first and last crave for his
daily nourishment but a little bread
and crackers, cheese and tea. For the
last twenty odd years of his life he
never ate flesh meat AS to wine and
all alcoholic drinks he was Il total alb
stainer of the strictest kind, practis-
ing that virtue rigidly, and preaching
and enforcing it among his Indians
universally.

The British AristOcracy.

The average British middle class is
the most dcbascd, matcralized and
soulless hourgroisic in the entire world
OF art, of literature, of poetry, of
thought, OF philosophy. of movement,
1t knows and cares nothing A baronet
is more to it than George Meredith or
Herbert Spencer. It's ambitions Are
to make plenty of money. to live in Il
big house, to keep IL carriage and ser
wants in livery, to hang upon the skirts
of the aristocracy if it can, to ape them
in everything, and if possible to rise
mt least as far toward their level as the
attainment of knighthood. writes
Grant Allen in the Cosmopolitan for
April.
Rich families in America are gen
orally aware of the existence of cUl-
turr and the dcsirahility of acquiring
it, or at least some prctense and outer
show of 1t. as far as convenient.
Sometimes. indeed. the American nou-
vcau richie family is quite painfully
conscious of it's deficiencies in this ad-
mircd and bc-praised commodity
which it desires. however, l will frank
ly admit. rather for it's responsibility
and public estimation than for it's own
sake.
But in England most wealthy people
do not even pay this external and
formal homage to culture. They do
not know it exists: they do not care
for it. or admire it, or value it in
others. They wish to have Il private
box Mt the Oaks, a yacht like Lord
listers. a coach and four, an invi-
tation to the garden party at the neigh
boring baronets. perhaps even to own
Derby winner, and to rise to the
pccrage through beer or cotton. That
is all. OF the real hetterncsscs of life
they are as innocent as Il Central AZ
rican negro
Art is to them a fashionable method
| of mural decoration; books are things
which no gentleman's library should
be without, and which can be supplied
to fit the various shelves in the book
case by the upholsterer's order. In
short. the place that ought to be taken
by admiration for real excellence is
usurped by a slavish and material

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness. and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu.
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have n rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and when
1t is entirely closed Deafness is the result
and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition. hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out Of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infamcd

TheOsOphist from Toronto. Canada,
Tells Why We Don'T Remember
Our Earlier Advents.

r. E. Titus. a theosophical lecturer from
Toronto, Canada, lectured Thursday night
in room OF the Shelley block under the
auspices Of the Omaha branch of the Theo-
sophical society his subject being, Have
We Ever Lived on Earth Before" a ques-
tion which he answered in the affirmative.
The room was we'll filled and the audience
was appreciative.
Why do We recall no details OF our ey-
istenGe In former times?" the speaker
asked. Because in the present physical
existence many details OF everyday life are
forgotten and we recall only a small pro-
portion Of the numberless incidents that
have occurred. In the development OF the
memory for physical details the memory
for the. higher consciousness and its de-
tails has been entirely overlooked"
He viii speak again this evening at the
same place on the subject Of Wireless
Telegraphy and Thought Transference."
