A girl has two suitors. Both appeal
to her, but she cannot make up her mind
which to accept. She is still in maiden
meditation, fancy free. In the morning.
she thinks she prefers Jack. By even
ing, the scale tips in favor of Will. Jack
is solid, sensible, practical fellow,
steady-going as clock, a man with no
nonsense about him, man who plods
along the beaten track, and who will be
sure by dint of sticking at his Job, to
reach his goal. Father and mother
secretly hope that Molly will take Jack,
as they have their doubts about the per-
severance of VIII, in any definite line.
And in the morning, when common
sense and prudence are in the ascend
ant, Molly thinks she may. She is al
most sure she ought to say yes to
Jack. Yet, when she sees Will in dress
clothes, absolutely correct, with flower
in his buttonhole, with that manner of
devotion so courtly, so debonair, so
deferential to her and to womanhood
in her person, she waivers. In society,
she always waivers. Will dances like
a feather; Jack plunges like a clod.
Will is brilliant and rattles on to room
full. Jack is silent and cannot talk,
unless on serious subject, that he
knows all about. The two are in con-
trast at every point. Jack never takes
risks; he is caution incarnate. VIII
is never more himself than on the verge
of peril. He does not know what eau
ton means.
Morally, both lovers are impeccable,
They are clean, wholesome, loyal and
manly. Both have right to the title
of gentlemen. Physically, each belongs
to the finest flower of the modern ath-
letic development.
Will is spectacular. Jack is an old
fogy. There you have the difference
in word, and Molly may have either,
and cannot decide which to choose

Piso's Cure cannot be too highly spoken of
as cough cure.-J. w. O'Brien, 800 Third

AS yet, it must be owned, she is not in
love. A girl cannot be expected at
once, at an hours notice, or a weeks,
to be in love with man who is in love
with her. She is the sought, not the
seeking, the desired, not the desiring. 1t
is her privilege to be coy, not to be easily
won, to make UP her mind at her leisure.
When Cupid succeeds in breaking
down her defenses and sends an arrow
into the guarded citadel of her heart,
she will have no more vacillation. She
will know whether to take Jack or Will.
Romantic girls will not believe me, but
there are preliminary stages in wooing,
at which Cupid may receive some assist
ance. Very likely, neither Jack nor
Will shall be the husband for Molly
The right man may be at this moment
in Japan, or South Africa, or cruising
about among the islands of the Carib-
bean sea. 1t may be that she will, as
an honorable girl, have to dismiss both
lovers, because in her heart there will
be no full response TO either.
God forbid girl from a marriage
of convenience, or from a marriage in
which love is not the feature that pre-
dominates, and becomes the convincing
reason. But in the early, the initial
stage when girl is interested, and be-
gins to look at herself in the glass, and
wonder if her hair should be high or
low, and puts on ribbon or pin with
faint thought of how it will look in
the eyes of somebody who is coming to
call, and whom she finds good COM
pany, she may ask herself certain ques-
lions.

Time When Women Are Susceptible to Many
Dread Diseases-Intelligent Women Prepare
for It. Two Relate their Experience.

The change of life" is
the most critical period
of a woman's existence,
and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near
is not without reason.
Every woman who
neglects the care of her
health at this time in
vites disease and pain.
When her system is in
a deranged condition,
or she is predisposed to
apoplexy. or congestion
of any organ, the ten
dency is at this period
likely to become active
and with a host of ner-
vous irritations, make
life a burden. At this
time, also, cancers and
tumors are more liable
to form and begin their
destructive work.
Such warning symp-
toms as sense Of suffo-
cation, hot flashes, head

of impending evil, timid-
ity, sounds in the ears,
palpitation of the heart,
sparks before the eyes,
Irregularities, constipa-

tude, and dizziness. are

Knights of Columbus.
BY Dr.J. T. Boylan Recorder
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. MMMMMMMMMAMM

Among the leading Catholic lay Or
CARNATIONS the knights of Columbus
must be given a high place. The Or
der was established in 1892 at New
Haven, Conn.,, by Rev.. NJ. J. McGiv-
ney, more for the purpose of having
some form Of social and bene, .lent
organization for the men Of his par
ish than with any thought or eAp.~
tation of its attaining it's present mag
nificent proportions. But he buildeu
better than he knew. The principles
of the Order were cast on such a high
plane and fraught with such splendid
possibilities for good that its field Oh
action has extended farther and farthe.
until today Council Of the Order is
to be found in nearly every city of
any consequence in the United States.
The personnel Of the Order Is Of a
high character, and membership in its
ranks is an honor to any man.
Numbered among its members ma,
be found archbishops, bishops and
priests, professional and business men;
in fact, the representative Catholics,
clerical and lay, in the various cities
in which the Order is established.
Founded in the Fast and following the

picnics or outings and also with some-
thing of more solid nature, such as
lectures by eminent speakers. The
council has also taken an interest in
deserving work that does not pertain
directly to its own welfare, such as
fairs or picnics given for the benefit of
local charitable institutions.
The order also provides the best and
safest life insurance in amounts of
$1,000. $4,000 or $4,000, based on what
is known as the natural plan,"" or
step rate" conceded by actuaries to
be the fairest and most reliable plan
of insurance yet devised. The risks
are carefully selected and extra haz-
ardous occupations barred. A reserve
fund of over 81 ,32O, 900 has been accumu-
lated and this with the careful and
conservative management of the insur-
ance department, makes a policy in the
Knights of Columbus an absolute asset
for its full face value.
Much could be written of the good
already accomplished by the knights
of Columbus through this department,
but that would be, to certain extent,
perhaps, only repetition of accounts
of similar good work of kindred organi-
cations along the same lines. 1t is the

example Of the great explorer in whose
honor it was named, the Order began
its journey westward, and in due
course of time the benefit Of member
ship therein was brought to the at
tention Of the Catholics of this city.
Accordingly in August Of 1899, about
a dozen men from the different par
ishes met and organized a Council
naming it in honor of that other great
Catholic explorer, Father Hennepin
The following gentlemen were elected
as the first officers of the new Council:
Grand Knight, T. E. Cootey; Deputy
Grand Knight, T. E. Newlo>e; Finan-
cial Secretary, ]. c. Sheehan; Record
er, P. ]. Riordan; Treasurer, M. A. Ger
DER; Chaplain, Rev. ]. NJ. Cleary; Med
ical Examiner, DR.. A. M. Wang.
From this small beginning Hennepin
Council has made vigorous growth
and today has membership of three
hundred and seventy-five, and a large
class is to be initiated in the near
uture. The council leased and fur
lished its own hall and club rooms,
which are kept open at all times for
the use Of members and also provides
4 place where visiting knights may be
ntertained, AS a. change from the
more serious work of the organization,
The council frequently entertains its
members and friends at private or
semi-public affairs such as card parties,

look ahead" of the careful buyer of
life insurance that makes a policy in
the Knights of Columbus so attractive
a business proposition.
Another work Of national Importance
accomplished by the knights of Colum-
bus was the endowment of a chair of
history in the Catholic University
at Washington, $4,000 being subscribed
for that purpose by the members
throughout the United States. Surely
the Knights of Columbus have reason
to be proud of the work accomplished
along many lines throughout the
United States and is destined to accom-
plish much more for church and coun-
try. The Catholics of Minneapolis
should be proud of the fact that a
council Of the order is established here
and men who are eligible should avail
themselves of the present opportunity
to affiliate with the society. The Of
ficers of Hennepin Council for the pres
ent year are: Grand Knight, Rev. J. M.

NOT READY FOR INDEPENDENCE.

| The truth of the whole situation is
! this: The Filipino is not ready for self
government. and will not be ready for
/ SO many years that there is no use in
I discussing the probable time when he
/ will be. Generally speaking he has
more authority now than his capacity
warrants. Giving it to him in broken
doses was not mistake, because his
aptitude was unknown and it had to
be established There are able loyal
Filipinos but they are too few in num-
Der to undertake the burden of gov
eminent. They would soon be over
whelmed by the INSCRIPTIONS ele-
! ment whose desire for personal gain
is stronger than their spirit of patriot
ism
We have here a population, ninety
per cent of which is ignorant, and the
bulk of the educated element is seek
ing power merely to profit by it. 1t is
certain that we cannot graft a repub-
lican form of government on this peo-
pie in a few years, but there is hope
that it can be done in time. The masses
must have a better understanding of
their rights and the class which will
govern a higher sense of public duty,
before there can be any prospect of the
experiment being wholly successful.
Several generations will have to
be educated before the Filipinos can
safely be trusted with the manage
ment of their own affairs-and even
then they may not be equal to it. In
the meantime no attention should be
paid to the chafings of native poll
ticians. Their demand for immediate
independence is prompted either by
misguided zeal or selfish motives.
The inhabitants of these islands have
more liberty now than they ever had
in the past Ghey have all the free
dom that the people of the United
States enjoy, except the right to be
tried by jury and the privilege of
carrying arms), and infinitely more
security than they would have If left
to themselves The strong arm of
American authority is here to guard
them from their enemies within and
without.
While the effect that education will
have upon them is problematical, there
is no doubt concerning the nopelessness
of their prospect if the protection OF
our government is withdrawn now, or
in the immediate future. They should
be told in no uncertain terms to aban-
don an idea of immediate independ-
ence. All talk of this kind merely slim
ulates the ambition of the politicians
and generates unrest. An outright pro-
to this effect might cause |
some commotion among the element
that aspires to power, but it would
only be a furry. The Filipino is now
free to work and live in peace. He has
the chance to develop whatever there
is in him Let him do it.
