MorrSstoaOn, N. r.

Dear Sir: The way to buy paint is
to go by the name. There is a name
never seen on sham paint or weak
paint or short-measure paint Deyoe
& Reynolds.
There are a hundred different names
in paint. Some are sham some weak !;
some short-meaSure and some all
three.
If there is another such paint as De-
voc s. Reynolds lead-and-zinc, we don't
know it. There are few fairly good
paints; few only one Devoe & Ray
nolds. A gallon Devoe s. Reynolds is
worth gallon-and-a-half of those few
Mr. Aaron Higgins, of Plainfield,
N J, always used Is gallons of mixed
paint for his house. Last spring he
bought Is gallons of Deyoe and had 4
gallons left.
Yours truly

We sing to-day Of good John K.",
And Wedding Twenty five,
And dear Aunt Ruth and all the yout
Who keep the name alive.
He lived erstwhile on Britain's Isle.
Mid Sussex Southdowns rare:
He loved his London and the boys,
But longed for other arr.
One early day he sailed away
To seek. not wealth nor fame.
But Yankee ground. wherein to found
A life-tree and name
His nice fresh fish can make one wish
For more. -and he has fruit.
And lobster, poultry, game and greens.
All appetites to suit.
His chowder fame is just the same
In June or in December;
And months that hold the Rs his friends
Can never fail remember.
His are the hands that toll. aud his
The heart tbat beats for home;
For him the joys of childhood, and
In him no wish to roam.
On Sundays and on weekday nights
He sings the cradle song;
Weeknights and Sundays seem too short,
And working-daSs too long.
To name them all tits easy
For he counts them day by day
The noses gathered round the board,
The noses wooed away.
The married five are: Abbie, first;
Grooa Alfoa ErAd oad loo
Who won his spurs by standing fast
At old Guantanamo
There's Ella, also called Louise.
And Emma Susan smiling too
Addison, Mary aud Arthur next,
Then Raymond Joined the Grew;
And Paullyn was the pretty boy {"
Ruth, Harriet. Phil and Dot;
And last is Baby Marion, who's
The " sweetest of the lott;
And let us note in passing.
= Little Billy" pet of old.
Whose curIs and shining morning face
Turned troubles into gold;
And John K, Second. first of boys
To cheer the fathers heart;
With memory's treasures these are held,
Though days or decades part.
And grandsons five. granddaughters four
All love their " Gran'pa Benny II;
Nephews and nieces just a score

Long live their gay posterity

The People of Guam.

Charles D. Lehmkuhl, executive
secretary of the island of Guam in the
Pacific, is in Washington taking his
first vacation after six years spent in
that far away portion of Uncle Sans
domain. OF the people of the islatnd
he says:
''There are on the island about IL
600 natives, who call themselves Cha
morros. They are of yellow complex
ion, resembling the Filipinos some
what but larger in size. These ma
tives from the start have never given
our government the least trouble; they
are good natured, docile, easily man
aged.
1.-The people, as I said, are of an
easy going nature, but they are also
intensely religious. To them the
Catholic church stands for all that
makes life worth living. So devoted
away from the town of Agana, in
which is the only house of worship
on the island, over night. They will
go out on their cocoanut farms. sew
eral miles into the country, during the
day, but at nightfall will come hurry
ing back by the hundreds, to be in
proximity to their beloved church. 1t
would be an enormous help to their
progress if some charitable person
would build for these people two or
three churches, to be located in the
outlying rural districts. This is, in
deed, the only way in which Guam will
ever be properly settled. A few
American priests ought also to come
over there, for their influence would
be of untold benefit in helping the ma
tives to understand their rightful re-
lations with the United States I
speak not as a Catholic, but as a
Protestant who believes in accepting
facts and trying to make the best of
them"

Toid in the Barber Shop.

The bath man told me this story the
other day:
An Irishman and a Jew were having
an argument that grew heated as it
progressed, regarding the preponder-
ance Of Jews or Irish in heaven. Final
ly they decided that each should name
those of his cOmpatriots whom he be-
lieved to be in the celestial region. and
for each one named he would pull a
hair from the others head.
A toss was made for first choice and
the Irishman won. st. Patrick" he
promptly exclaimed, and out came a
strand from the Jewish whisker

Tsaacs. and q small handful was
dragged from the face Of McMulligau.
This was getting serious for Nc. 1t
would never do to concede both heaven
and the hirsute adornment of which
he was so proud. He thought deeply
for a few brief seconds and shouted.

Law Laid Down for Priests

Archbishop Quigley of Chicago has
decided that no Improvements shall be
made on church property unless there
IS cooperation between the congrega-
ton and the pastor and that no debts
shall be incurred in the name of any
congregation without their consent.
The case was that of the congrega-
ton at Irwin, in Kankakee county. Fa-
Their Simard, the pastor. had planned a
rectory TO cost about $4,000. A few
weeks ago he is said to have announced
in the church that the assessment on
the members of the congregation, most
of whom are wealthy farmers, would
be 81 an acre. They protested and APP
pealed to the archbishop and the latter
visited the church. A meeting was
called, in which each side was heard,
Archbishop Quigley telling the people
TO speak out"
His decision was that no rectory
should be built at Irwin for the pres
emit and in making it he announced the
law as stated above.

EPIscoPALIANs AND DIVORCE.

The bishop of the Chicago diocese OF
the Episcopal church recently an
nounced that the clergy in his diocese
would no longer be permitted to marry
people who had been married before
and who had secured a separation by
divorce. He ruled that the only legal
separation between man and wife ac-
cording to the teachings of the Bible
and the church was that of death.
The Ri. Rev. c. c. Grafton when in
terviewed on what stand the Fond du
Lac diocese had taken regarding the
matter, said: 81 believe in some of the
diocese some such action has been TAX

progress is the order Of the day in

this month the magnificent Cathedral
of st. Mary was consecrated in Sydney,
and on the following day was held the
opening session of the third plenary
council of Australia. Ia the growth OF
the church under the southern cross
much is due 20 the learning and zeal
of the illustrious archbishop of Sydney
Cardinal Moran. Not less marvellous
than the cardinals success as an &c
clesiastical ruler and administrator is
the radical change which his political

and pupil of Cardinal Cullen. Dr. Mo-

his opinions from pulpit and platform

which he is a master:yThe transfer OF

Archbishop keane Sought by Lunatic.

a lunatic said to be armed with a
revolver and a long butcher knife made
frantic and protracted attempts one
Sunday afternoon recently to see Arch
bishop Keane, who, he said, had a
thousand dollars of his, and which he
was going to get, by force if neces-
sary.
The man, whose name has not been
learned. first tried to find the Arch
bishop in the school house and then
in the sisters home From there he
went into the cathedral, where he
threw a congregation of women into
Mysteries, and finally landed on the
steps of the Archbishop's residence.
There he was trying to effect an en-
trance when officer Ben Gray took
him into custody.
The lunatic is not d res dent Of Du-
buque. but has been there about a
month, staying at the Winona and
Minnesota houses. He is a German,
about 40 years of age, and is some

DIPLOMACY OF THE HOLY SEE
Prospect of official representatives
at All the Great Capitals.

If one is to believe reports in I'M
usually well informed circles in Rome,
writes the Rome correspondent of the
London Tablet. under date of August
q, great changes are imminent in the
diplomatic representation of the Holy
See. Leo XIII desired to be officially
represented at all the capitals of civil
lized governments, and he did greatly
increase the number of nuncios. inter
nuncios and apostolic delegates
throughout the world. a couple of
years before his death it seemed very
probable that even the United States
would shortly enter into formal diplo-
matte relations with him, especially
after the federal government had con-
scented to treat officially with Mgr.
Guidi as apostolic delegate TO the Phil
ippines That hone has passed away
for the moment, but the changes that
are taking place in the Orient, especi-
ally owing to the lapse of the French
protectorate, are opening up wide
field for Vatican diplomacy. More than
once Pope Leo was obliged to refuse
the petition of the Sultan to establish
a nunci9ture at Cohstantinople, on the
ground that France and the French
embassy at Rome enjoyed the privilege
OF arranging matters between the Holy
See and Turkey. 1t is likely that the
pSlIllOl VIII SOOn pG I6ltNGU, anu NSly
unlikely that 1t will be again rejected.
According to the reports above men
toned, China has just taken the first
step TO secure the establishment of an
apostolic nunciature at Pellin, which
would treat all the questions affecting
the Catholic church throughout China.
The Tribuna announces that the Grand
Council of the Empire. in reply to the
emperor who wishes to know its opin-
ion on the matter, has advised his ma
jesty to send All envoy extraordinary
to Rome and request Plus Y to enter
into diplomatic relations with China"
The same correspondent takes notice
of the mission to Japan, recently con-
fided by Pope Plus X to the Ri. Rev.
Bishop O'Connell of Portland, Me,
and though believing that certain dis
patches from Paris, concerning it, are
open to suspicion, adds:
But it is very likely that some steps
will soon be taken to regulate the po-
sition of the Japanese Catholics. Fin
ally, there is ground for believing that
before long Russia, which is now rep
resented at the Vatican by a minister,
will have a nuncio at st. Petersburg
and an ambassador in Rome accredited
to the Holy See. The new Spanish am
basSador to the Holy See Senior Don
Rodrigo Ffguera y de Sones, Marquis
of Jovar, Grandee of SPAIN and heredi-
tary Senator Of the Kingdom, who has
just been appointed to succeed Count
de Tejeda, is expected in Rome before
