Rome, July ga private view of
the Pontiffs' body by high church
dignitaries, diplomats and Roman
aristocracy was held to-day in the
throne room, in accordance with
Leo's wishes. The removal of the
urn containing the viscera to the
Quirinal church is being widely com.
mented on. AS this is the parish

dirt to start with; have to dig our liv-

the bosom of old Mother Eearth when
we are through with our trouble.
Nearly all mothers want TO keep their
children clean end slick when nature Is
working against them all the time.
The best way is to let the kids have
all the dirt and water they want to
play with and then have a tub of wat
er handy to throw them into when
they get through. Dirt doesn't hurt
children bit if you get it off them
every night"
