J Haynes. Rev Father Slocum of Waterbury was the last speaker. He said ill substance:
 '.1'he remarks of Mir Haynes have been great inspiration to me. do not often have chance to hear such d speech.
 We find that it is the business men who have generally been the standby of the community in it's need. If there Is one class which any country is ab- solutely in need of it is this middle class of business men This is the secret of England's great strength.
 T must say that I am an optlmist. 1 do not believe there is any great danger. I believe the salvation of tlie country will come from you business men.
 There is danger in this business of monopoly, of gathering wealth out side of the community where It is produced, if it continues, but you will not endure 1t. That is the very thing that has brought revolution and an- archy in the past
 "I believe you business expectations have been little bit careless. So- clalism cannot get foothold here. l think. But do you realize the im- mense immigration of people every year imbued with the idea that all government is wrong? You have too easy an idea of the safety of tbe coun-, try.
 'sThis country has always had two, parties and will be governed by one or the other. The government of this country is party government. If \ man wants to achieve party reform he party.
 "lf there is any fault you business men have 10 accuse yourselves of it is of being indifferent when your party goes wrong. There is great demand for every man to take large interest in political affairs.
 "It is the duty of the business men of the country to correct injustice where 1t exists. Philanthropy and charity cannot take the place of jus tice.
 "There is no better man to lead rhe nation that he who has undertaken it. The achievement of the peace of Portsmouth was a yeritable miracle. We face to-day conditions that the American people have never faced be- fore. It is the part of all loyal Ameri- cans to stand by Roosevelt. The last time of sectional division in voting has passed.
 "The principle of the constitution develops the best that Is in a man. Here Catholic and Protestant stand side by side as American citizens, for getting the animosities brought from across the waters echo the senfi- ment of Rev Mir Haynes and shake hands with him"

Good Pocket Night Lamp.

To instantly obtain a light sufficient
to read the time by watch or clock
by night, without danger of setting
things on fire, is an easy matter. Take
an oblong vial of the clearest of
glass, put into IL piece of phOs phorus
about the size of pea, pour upon
this some pure olive oil, heated to the
bofllng pont; the bottle to be filed
about one-third Ial, then cork tightly.
To use the light remove the cork,
allow the air to enter, then recork.
The whole empty space in the bottle
will then become luminous, and the
light obtained will be good one. AS
son as the light becomes dim its
power can be increased by opening
the bottle, and allowing a fresh sup
ply of air to enter.
In very cold weather it is some
times necessary to heat the vial be-
tween the hands to increase the fluid
'ity of the OIL and one bottle will last
winter. This ingenious continuance
may be carried in the pocket, and is
used by watchmen in Paris is all the
magazines where explosives or infam-
mable materials are stored.- ANA

Arnfnst Rata Keduct,cr

Atlanta, Ga.-The recent proposition
OF ]. Pope Brown, Chairman of the
Georgia Railroad Commission, to re-
duce the >passenger rate in Georgia
from three to two cents per mile was
protested against by the Brotherhood
OF Locomotive Engineers, the Order OF
Railway Conductors, and unions of the
blacksmiths, machinists and telegraph
ers. boilermakers, railway train men,
carpenters and joiners, clerks and car
men. These organizations employed an
attorney especially to represent them,
who urged that such reduction would
work against the prosperity Of the
State and lead to a reduction in the
number Of railroad employees as well
as Of their wages. The Travellers Pro-
tective Association also protested that
a reduction as proposed would result in
fewer trains and poorer service.

A Sun ParIor for Baby.

Stunning the baby is the latest
thing in baby culture. No household
is too poor to possess one of these
patent adjustable sun parlors. They
are made or some kind of hard wood
and built by the carpenter to extend
DeyOnd the window. The top and
sides of the little platform are COW
cred with glass, and strips of carpet
are laid on the floor to stop up any
cracks there may be. No matter how
fercely the wind blows or how low
the thermometer may sink the sun
parlor is always ready for the baby.
A pillow is placed on the carpeted
floor, then the baby is warmly dressed
and we'll covered for it's morning or
afternoon nap. Mothers who have
tried this method Of summing the baby
are boasting of the gain in weight
and health and have the proud salts.

How He Missed.

A correspondent of the London Pail
Mall Gazette, says: 81 had a friend
not the one who lived on apples, but
another one-who did his duty to
himself and others with such zeal that
he never went to bed without taking
hi temperature or got up without
taking a scientific decoction the name
and composition of which l have for
gotten; the flavor, however, was such
as rendered the duty performed par
ticularfy meritorious. His dietary was
based on the most scientific prin-
ciples; he had his appendix removed,
so as to aviod all risk of appendicitis,
and, in short, he so fully realized the
duty of being healthy and long-lived
that he never had time to do anything
else or talk about anything else. I'm
fortunately, he never took the tickle
jade Fortune into his calculations,
and after only year of striving most
manfully to fulfill the duty of being
long-lived he slipped on a piece OF
orange peel and fractured the base Of
his skull.
"And the moral of all that is that if
he had not bothered himself so much
about his health, though he might
still have died through slipping on a
piece Of orange peel, the last year Of
his life would, at any rate, have been
more profitably spent"

Motoring In ireland.

OF stories of Irish hospitality Mr..
Mecredy had full supply Also of
hotel attendants and the peasantry.
On one occasion he asked the girl in
attendance for poached eggs. She
looked bit nonplussed at first, but
after little hesitation replied,
There are no poached eggs in the
place, sir; but think could get you
some poached salmon"
In a poor little cottage of two
rooms he saw married couple and
seven children. Hearing a baby cry
be asked to see it, and explained that
he took an interest in babies, having
one at home. The infant was produc-
ed for inspection and the mother
asked proudly, "Is yours as big as
that, sir?" To which be replied, Il
think it is little bigger" Instantly
the instincts Of the mother were
reused, and tossing her head she said,
so well it might be; that's only half
Of ours; the other half is with God.
We had twins"
At hotel one of the party asked,
Have you got any celery, waiter?"
No, sir" was the significant answer;
relies on me chances" That man
deserved an extra tip. On another
occasion the dinner was especially
good and we'll served. At the conclu-
sion one of the party remarked,
You're an angel, Pat" 81 am, sir"
assented Pat; "but l fly low" Lon

How "Ail Men Are Born EQUAL"

The woman born beautiful doesn't
bother to educate her intelligence, is.
spoiled by flattery, is unable to hold
the men she attracts; the woman
born homely is driven to develop her
character and her mind, and so moro
than overcomes her handicap as
against her pretty sister. The man
born clever loses because he wins too
easily and has not incentive to that
sustained effort which alone achieves
success; the man born SLOW de-
velops patience, assiduity, balance
and, best of all, tenacity.
It comes near to being universal
rule that strong points and weak ones
just about Offset. each other in any
human being at the start, and that
the development is a matter for the
man himself to determine. And
there is no fatal handicap except the
disposition to regard ones handicap
as fatal.-Saturday Evening Post.

The FaiIIngs Of our Noveliets.

We are timid and conventional M
tion. and doubtless our timidities filter
through to the publishers, for certain
it is that American literature as II
stands to-day is especially noticeable
for its lack of Individuality. When it
has individuality it is somehow unin.
pDrtant as art. There are certain Sec
lions Of our land that have received
minute, Photographic treatment from
faithful authors, but with slight ex.
ceptions either the feeling of the au-
thors lack intensity or Importance or
the subjects they handle are of too
elementary habit of heart and mind
to make the work of real value as
world literature. If one compare a
good American novel with good Eng.
lish, French, or Russian novel, this
Is almost the first criticism that leaps
into ones mind.
1t is question whether this habit
of our own authors comes from our
having az yet produced no very large
leisure class, no class of people with
time for intense emotions or introsl
+ ction. We have a way of calling
feeling, any especial feeling, morbid
If it is suffering or despair, we are
apt to dub it pessimistic; If it is in
trospection, unnatural. But sooner or
later our novelists too will have to
cope with more complex conditions of
life and depth of emotion, or be con.
tent to remain little and elementary

There is more Catarrn in this section of tho
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to teaspoonful. It acts direct
]y on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
