than society as a whole, and the indi-

fraction Of it. This is an Immense
stimulus to self esteem. The man be-,

almost any society, irrespective of its

II believe the stolidity Of the English

of authority are due in large measure
to the fact that long before it leaves

more hopeless when it comes to learn
that: in one case twelve ounces make q

Legend OF the Home Of Mary aGd the
%E5 M $sts saviour. Ej sssS ss a X


Let ME give the main outlines Or the
legend, At Nazareth was preserved
with piolis care the house Of Our
Lady. The dwelling place in Which
she received the gracious message of
the incarnation, the lowly home which
sheltered the holy family for so many
years, was a very precious sanctuary.
On May 10, 1921, /. q month after the
taking of Tripoli and Ptolemais, this
holy house was carried by the hands
of angels from Nazareth to a place in
Dalmatia between Fiume and Tersatz
Oh the Adriatic shore.
It was one roomed edifice, built of
red square stones, fastened With ce-
ment, and bore proof of age and ori
entail design. 1t stood without any
foundations and had a Z, wooden deco
rated ceiling. The walls We're covered
with frescoes; there We're q door and
narrow window; inside were an
altar Of stone an ancient crucifix, q
small cupboard. containing a few YES
sells of common use; a chimney and
hearth, above which was cedar
statue of Our, Lady with the Holy
Child in her arms. The pastor Of the
place learned in vision that the build
ing was the house Of Our Lady, the
stone altar that at which ST. Peter
celebrated mass and the statue the
work of st. Luke the Evangelist In
proof Of the vision he was c,.redSof L
serious Illness. A deputation of foj"r
responsible persons forthwith fw, -
sent to Nazareth to investigates Ste
mystery, and they found that St&e
house was no longer to be found.
Measurement and other means tsl's"n
proved that the house that had ss,ld-
denly appeared in Dalmatia was in
deed none other than that which had
as suddenly left Palestine. Three years
after, on Dec 10, 1894, the holy
house again DISAPPEARED and under
the pontifcate Of Celestine ". came to
Recanati, little town In the march
Of Ancona, when it fixed itself in a
laurel grove belonging to q pious-lady
called Loreto. It was discovered by
some shepherds and soon. became rec
ognized and was henceforth a much
frequented place Of pilgrimage. Eight
months afterward the house removed
to small hill three miles from Re
canati. to land belonging to two broth
ers, who, however, fell out shortly aft
erward over the division Of wealth
which began to flow to the new shrine.
To save strife between the brothers
the house was suddenly lifted once
more and this time settled down final
~ in the midst Of the public way,
which had to be diverted in conse-
quence. Here, too, in the course of
tine chapel was built. which gave
way in time to the present basiltca.
The famous pilgrimage Of Loreto goes
on today. Popes, kings and princes
have visited this shrine and left great
gifts. Later on festival with litur-
gical rites was instituted, and in time
the feast of the translation Of the holy
house was extended to many countfaes:

An East Indian Fish That Travels
Over the Land.
As rule, fish come out Of the water
only at the end of a line or by other
Involuntary process, but the climbing
perch of the East Indies thinks moth
ing OF leaving a pool with which it is
not satisfied and starting overland in
search Of one more to it's taste.
< This usually happens as result of the
evaporation Of q pool in the extreme
" dry season. When the fish decide
that the water in the particular pool
formed during the rainy season is in
danger of drying out completely they
make all preparations for moving and
late at night or early in the morning
deliberately climb the banks and start
off in search of some more commodtous
pool or stream not in danger of going
dry. When the journey Is made at the
hour it usually is the fish are favored
by the heavy dew which lies on the
grass, but If an emergency arises they
will boldly strike out at noontime along
the dusty road. .....-.. ....,......>s.s,..sss
They travel by means of the strong
bony fms which. are full of sharp
spines, like those Of the common perch.
They have receptacle in which they
carry water with them to moisten their,
gills. It Is said that they will live sew:
eral days out Of water, and with the
assistance Of the dew laden grass the
