He Couldn't Forget,

resident mcditatively.
"Was it a joyful one?' asked the
young man who was lounging about
the club as if time hung heavy OH his
hands.
'Joyful!' exclaimed the old resi-
dent. "That's no name for it at all.
1t was downright lively. l think my

'rred to surprise you, did she?'
''She not only tried to, but she sue
cecded. You see, she always was an
enthusiast in everything she under
took"
"Bankrupted you in getting you
presents, l suppose" suggested the
young man.
"Well, not exactly" returned the old
resident rellcctivcly, "but her presents
came very near bankrupting me later.
However, they are good deal of COM
fort to me now, so that I can't say
regret it,
"Now" calculated the young man.
"Do you mean to say that you still
have them?"
Certainly"
"And how long ago was this thirty

"Twenty years ago"
"Twenty years! Heavens! That's

Address by Bishop Spalding.

Chicago, Feb. 9.-The Municipal
Lecture associat ton, organized to pro-
vide public addresses on pending is
sues of municipal life and government,
began it's work at the Auditorium to-
night with an address by Bishop John
l.. Spalding, of Peoria, Ill. A large
audience listened to his discussion Of
Democracy, Socialism and Labor"
He said, among other things:
despite our marvellous success and
achievement, we have failed to secure
equal opportunities to all, which is the
radical aim and master passion of
democracy. More than 20 per cent. of
the wealth of the United States, it is
reckoncd. is owned by 8 per cent. of
the families; while % per cent of the
wealth is all that is left for 81 per
cent. of the population; and the ten
dency of industrial progress under the
competitive system is to increase in
equality of possession. If the present
methods continue Il few Individuals
and trusts will soon control the means
of production and distribution. and
this in an era when money is the
mighticst form Of social influence and
and corporations will belong an au-
thority and power greater than any
history makes known-;n authority

tutions.

large measure, the politics of our ma
tional. state and municipal legislative
bodies. 1t enables the multi-milliOn-
aires and the trusts to make or evade
the laws. 1t controls most potent
organs of public opinion, and is able
to give to the interests of industrialism
priority over the rights of man. Much
of the evil is due to the competitive
system which involves enormous
wastes. over-capitaliZatiOn. excessive
production. stagnation, panic. strikes,
and all the miserics which thence flow
to the whole social body. Where ma
tcrial goods are the first and para
mount and human values become Sec
ondary or are lost sight of altogether.
''But the evils from which we suffer
are not wholly or necessarily due to
the competitive system. They are
largely the result of the greed of indi-
vidual capitalists and of the IMPROVE
dence and wastefulness of working

of the wrongs which the toiling masses

The report of the national treasurer
for the six months ending Dec. 81,
1908, is very interesting and con-
clusively shows that the management
of the funds of the order has been
carefully looked after. The character
of the investments appear to be such
as to bear the most searching scrutiny,
and the showing is one of which every
member of the order may well feel
proud. Summarized the report shows

eral fund, $31 ,S4S.36 in the mortllary

degree fund, and $7S9.2O in the
emergency relief fund. Mortgages on
real estate, bearing 4 per cent. inter
est amount to $4,000. bonds bearing
from 81, to 5 per cent, interest amount

post in 20 different banks is S1S9,36G.-

The liquor forfeiture committee hold
$500, and the national Office in petty
cash $3.50, making grand total in i'll

The total receipts for the six months
amounted to S274, 1351 10, tile disburse-
ments being S39,91S.9S; 100000 was
taken from the mort,lary reserve fund
and placed in the profitable invest
mcnts, and 100000 was paid benctici-
aries from death benefit fund. The

and religious convictions obey abiding
impulses and become permanent
force. They have the strength of rea-
son and conscience which overcomes
the lawless passions of the rabble as
it subdues the forces of nature to hui
man uses. This is the soul of the
opinion which rules the world which,
if it but assert itself, can reform
homes and cities. churches and states.
When an organism loses the power to
remake itself its destruction has be-
gun. The rapid growth is poor sylnp-
tom of disease. Noraciousness is path
illogical. In vain shall we widen our
boundaries. in vain multiply markets
for our goods, if the inner source
which made our fathers lovers of truth
and justice and freedom run dry"

A Priests Wise Words

Rev. John Feldman, in his annual
report just issued, says very pertinent
ly: Everybody should carry some in
surance. He owes it to himself and
to those who are near and dear to him.
And there's Il straw for the young
folks. Not long ago an excellent young
man said to his pastor: Father, al
though as you know, I am not mar
ried. I've had my life insured for
some time, and also belong to two
societies which will pay me sub
stantial weekly benefit in case of sick
ness. And let me tell you. Father,
when do get married, it will be to a
girl who has had sense enough to be
insured. l feel that such one will
prove to be far better partner
through life than one who never looks
ahead and who carries all her wages
on her back"
And the priest thought to himself
that girl worth having would argue
in the same way in regard to the
young man.

indicate that the heart has Jagged be-
hind the head and the purse. The re-
storation of the equilibrium and the
infusing of a feeling of brotherhood
that will establish justice and good
will must be the aim of those who are
sincerely interested in the progress of
the race.
This is prominently the work of
our religious teachers. although it is
work in which the laity, as we'll as
the clergy, must take part.
After meeting Plus \. late the be-
loved Patriarch of Venice, l feel as
sured that he is peculiarly fitted to lead
his portion of the Christian Church
in this great endeavor
The Vatican, which serves as the
home and executive Offices of the Su-
preme pontift of the Catholic Church,
is an enormous building, or Ill Their col
lection of buildings for it bears evil
dences of additions and anneXes. One
might be easily lost in its maze of cor
ridorS. The ceilings of the chief
apartments are high and like the walls
of the spacious rooms and halls. arc
covered with frescoes of priceless
value.
The Vatican adioins St Peters
Cathedral. or Basilica. as it is called
a description of whose beauties would
fill Il volume. The Cathedral is so
tremendously proportional that one
does not appreciate its vastness from
distance, but once within its walls
it is easy to credit the statement that
fifty thousand persons can he crowded
into it.
The Irish standard., 1904-02-13

Marriage and the bringing up Of chill
dren cause more shopping than any
other incident of human life, and both
marriage and child rearing are the
special functions which are deliberate
ly, perennially and successfully foster
ed and promoted among Catholics.
The merchants know this from happy
experience; they testify to their under
standing of it by advertising in the
paper which goes into the Catholic
homes that are and shall be. 1t should
he a matter Of more than mere curios-
ity for our readers to note what mer-
chants do and what do not show at
once their shrewdness and their good
feeling in this way. 1t should be
matter of pride and of graciousness
with Catholics to make point of Civ
ing such merchants the preference.
They have the best stores in the city.
Just notice which they are and govern
yourselves accordingly.

Catholic Paper and the Advertiser.

The revenue of course comes from
the advertising. Advertising comes
from the belief of the merchant that
the paper has readers who form a
purchasing class. Catholic influence,
religious and social. makes and keeps
homes. That is what it is here for.
