Rome July 20.-Pope Leo is dead. Tne
last flicker of life expired at 4:o4 this
afternoon, and the pontif now lies at
rest.
The period of over two weeks that Pope
Leo passed in the shadow of death was
no less wonderful than his life HIS
splendid battle against disease was watch
ed the world over with sympathetic 2d-
miration and ended only after a series
OF tremendous efforts to conquer the
weakness of his aged frame by the mar
velIous will power of his mind The
pleuro- pneumonia, with which his holl-
ness has been suffering was scarcely re-
sponsible for his death as that inevita-
BILE decay OF tissue which ensues upon
ninety-three years of life. The tested
steel, which had bent so often before
human Ills was bound to break ait last.
The pope's final moments were marked
by that same serenity and devotion. and
when he was conscious that calm ntelli-
gence which was associated with his
twenty-five years pontificate. His was
no easy death An hour before he died,
turning to DR.. Lapponi and his devoted
valet Pho Contra, he murmured:
The pain l suffer is most terrible.
Yet his parting words were not Of the
physical anguish that he suffered. put
were whispered benedictions upon the
cardinals and his nephews. who knelt
at his bedside. and the last look of his
almost sightless eyes was toward the
great ivory cruciHx hanging in the death
chamber Practically all the cardinals In
Rome kneeling a the bedside, watched
the passage of his soul Earlier In the
day Cardinal Serafino Vannure ELI had i'm
pressively pronounced the absolution in
articulo morris.
The condition Of his holiness varied
from agony to coma. Wishing to relieve
him, Dr. Mazzoni suggested that NOR
phine should be administered. but DR..
Lapponi did not agree, fearing that the
end might be quickened.

CURING The death of Pope Leo meant
the passing Of the supreme power into
the hands OF the sacred college of oardi-
nails as its temporary custodian during
the nterregnum.
The perfect administrative machinery
of the church provided against the slight
est interruption Of the governing au-
thority. AS the senior member of the
sacred college, Cardinal Oreglia, to whom
the pope today solemnly contided the in
terests of the church, has now become
the exponent of the cardinals until Pope
Leo's successor has been elected. This
brought forth Cardinal Oreglia as the
striking personality Of the hour.
The cardinal Is the exact antihesis Of
Pope Leo, having none of the late pom
tiff's sympathetic and benevolent char
q Cteristics He comes from a noble Pied
montese stock, and his nobility is shown
iii his naughty and austere bearing He
is not popular among his colleases or
the Romans and his brusque manner has
earned him the title of The Piedmont
Bear" He is tall and robust and his
seventy~four years are shown by the
whteness of his hair. His face has the
tawny hue of old parchment and IS
deeply lined. Despite his austerity. the

AUNT BUSY HAS HER SAY
and NenheWs:

Dear Nieces and Nephews:
Aunt Busy has not much to say this
week because she is feeling very sorry
over something she read the other day.
In all the daily papers on last Mon
day she read about some young girls
and boys who did not have any books,
papers or magazines to read, and they
were very unhappy in various ways.
Aunt Busy has a great sorry place,
ever. since. as the little ones say, in
her heart for these children. She would
just like to give each one whole
library and good loving hug at the
same time, because it is sad enough
to be without reading matter, but
doubly sad to be without love and
kindness. Aunt Busy is glad that the
lives of her dear nieces and nephews
are different. She devoutly hopes that
your lives will always be sunny and
bright Living in your comfortable
homes under the love and care of fond
parents and guardians you do not
know the heartache and discomfort
that exists in many young souls. COD
grant you never may.
But, dear children, try to appreci-
ate the advantages that you have and
improve every moment of your time
Have a great, broad charity for others,
who perhaps nave never had any euu-
cation no home, and, what is saddesS
of all, no dear mother to guide and
advise them.
Have a thought for the young girls
and boys who last week said: 'Oh,
if we only had something to read!"
Just think of the excellent story pa
pers, books and magazines that we
throw into the waste basket every
week. while a few miles away starved
hearts and minds are wistfully long
ing for many things, and chiefly for
something to readi Aunt Busy may
be a foolish "old goose" but she
thinks there is a great capacity for
good in young people who like to read.
Aunt Busy intends to try to procure
some reading matter for those dear
children. She sends them this week
several copies of The Intermountain
Catholic and a great basket of love"
10 start with.
And to her own dear children she
sends, as usual, her very best love
and good wishes.
AUNT BUSY.

conhde in Your Mother. Girls,

When young girl goes to strangers
for advice in preference to her parents
she is treading a dangerous path. 1t
is easy to get sympathy in sunshine,
but when the dark clouds of sorrow
and suffering come over you there is
no one to lean on like a father or
mother. Keep no secrets from your
parents, girls. Ruin and shame will
always follow, if you do. If there is
any one thing calculated to make a
young man lose respect for a young
lady, it is to have her continually
hanging around after him, or if not,
writing notes every day. No boy who
has respect for himself or his mother
or sister will encourage any such
breeding. But there are libertines and
toughs that will do so, and lure you
on to ruin worse than death. You may
think this all the idea of a crank, girls,
but soon the world will begin to scorn
at you; your companions will shun you
as an unfit one to associate with, you
sink lower, until you life will be a
living hell. We say beware of the man
that wants you to keep secrets from
your parents.

Fun Enough to FIJI An Evening.

Here's a big roomful of fun for your
party, enough to last d whole evening.
Indeed, if you let everybody have a
trial, as everybody will be sure to wish,
there is enough for two evenings. You
may use the things suggested simply as
fun makers, or they may be held as for
feits that players in defeated games
have to pay. In either case they cause
no end of amusement.
1. Place a lighted candle on the
mantel; let a blindfolded person stand
with his back to it, walk FIVE steps for
ward, turn around, walk five steps back
toward the candle and blow it out.
?. Place a chair at the far end of the
room; let a person take a cane or an
umbrella in his hand, lean down until
his forehead touches his hand, close his
eyes and turn around rapidly three
times. Then let him open his eyes and
walk straight to the chair.
3. Take an ordinary visiting card and
bend down each end at right angles;
place it on the table so that it rests on
the bent ends and the air can pass I'M
der it, and then try to blow it over.
4. Walk around the room and smile
on each person in turn.
5. Yawn until you make some one
else yawn.
u oelSCl peIleClly SlllOoln dpplC
and suspend 1t from the chandelier by
a string so that it is about the height
of persons mouth. Bite a piece from
it without touching it with the hands.
Z. Repeat a stanza of poetry, count
ing the words as you go. For example:
1.-The (one) boy Cwo) stood (three) on
(four) the (ive) burning (six) deck
(seven.)"
8. Blacken one end of cork by
burning it. Let a blindfolded person
choose the right or the left end, hav-
ing first been told that one end is black.
Draw across his cheek the end he
chooses and repeat this three times.
Then bring in a mirror and let him look
at himself
8. Tie a bonbon in the middle of a
string, seat two boys on the floor facing
each other, and put an end of the string
in each boys mouth, telling them they
are to eat it rabbit fashion, that is, by
drawing it into the mouth by the lips,
without touching it with their hands.
The boy who first reaches the bonbon
eats it.
TO- Blindfold a person and let him
tell who gives him spoonful of water.
Repeat this ten or twelve times.

A MESSAGE to Girl Readers.

DR.. William Robertson Nlcoll throws
a new light upon novel reading. He
advises that no effort shall be made to
keep pace with the vast literary prod
ucts of the day, but he says to women
and girls: Read until you have dis
covered the author with whom you are
most in sympathy, whose work you
really love, and whose first read book
makes you long to know more of the
man and his work. Then read not only
everything from his pen, but every lit
tie fact you can gather about him, his
life and surroundings, and the books
that have influenced him most, till you
feel he is an intimate friend. Then,
and then only, can you fully appreciate
the fruits of the mans brain" 1t is
an education in itself to fully master
the works of one writer. How many
authors there are who are read over
and over again without being under
stood? Take George Meredith, for in
stance. Great as he is, he is not to be
recommended to the average reader,
who is first bored, then wearied, by an
author whose ability towers so far
above the ordinary level that one must
be educated to high degree OF literary
taste before understanding him. Bet
ter leave Meredith alone than to read
him without understanding. This IL
illustrates what DR.. Nicoll means in urg-
ing women to search out their authors
for themselves, and, having found one
which makes a special appeal to them,
to be faithful to him and study him. In
no other way can we escape the charge
of reading so superficially that we have
little knowledge of the books we wade
through and none whatever of the au-
thors' intention in writing them.

Don't Be Uneasy.

Many boys, without being conscious
of it, are constantly wriggling. They
fidget when standing, and do not know
what to do with their hands. When
sitting, the trouble is with their feet,
and with these keep up a tapping or
other motion, thus causing an unneces-
sary and unpleasant noise, especially in
the presence of strangers. Let each
boy who reads this train himself like
the scolder, Ito stand at ease" and to
sit at ease, and he'll show that man
ners will count more than giddiness or
cara1eScnacs

and others, papers and letters. Yes, it
got through. The fruiterer proved him
self very magician in the way he
conjured up permits and unraveled
red tape. Charlie, slightly wounded,
was in the hospital when the box came
decorated lavishly with flags. and
packed by loving hands. There was
Joy all around the camp hospital when
all the lovely things came to view.
And Charlie, holding the little loving
letters in his hand, fell fast asleep, and
awoke refreshed in mind and body.

WHY HE WENT INTO BUSINESS.
Unusual Experience of a Man Who
Set Out to Be Literary Person.

fame and fortune by my pen," said
substantial, middle-aged citizen who is
now drawing $4,000 or $4,000 a year
out of a prosperous business, 'but
somehow l couldn't make 'em come my
way.
Il wrote and wrote and wrote things,
and sent my pieces around in all direc-
tons. but it was no use. They all
came back. Everybody was overcrowd-

they wanted or something or other

the literary line looked pretty dim, and

stuff that I felt 1 could turn out. Now,

concern a thick envelope back. l knew
well enough without opening it what it
