THE CULT OF SILENCE.
Truest Intercourse Between Consen.
fal Spirits Is without Words.


Now, to keep ones freshness there
ought to be zone OF silence around
every human being during some part
of every day. 1t is significant that the
great religions of the world have come
out of silence and not out of noise, and
the finest creative work is done, as a
rule, in secllIsiOn-not necessarily apart
from men nor in solitary places, but
away from the tumult and away from
distracting sounds.
1t is in silence alone that we come
into possession of ourselves. The noises
of life disturb US as a cloud of dust in
tervenes between the eye and the sky
There ought to be a cult for the prac-
tice of silence-a body of men and
women committed to the preservation
of the integrity of their souls by nei-
Their hearing nor making speech for
certain periods, pledged to the culture
of the habit of QuietneSs.
MAterlinck has pointed out the fact
that the best things are never spoken,
and the truest intercourse between con-
genial spirits is carried OH without
words. If we said less and thought
more there would be far fewer things
to explain, many sources of irritation
would be dried up at the sources and
the prime cause of irritation, which Is
nervous exhaustion or excitement,
would be removed.-Outlook.

SuIph

Sulphur is solid, nonmetallic min
eral which has been known from earli-
est ages. 1t is hard yellow and brittle
and has most offensive odor. 1t is
found in veins or beds, mostly near
active volcanoes. The imported sui
phur mostly comes from Solfatia, in
Sicily, but large quantities are also pro-
cured from copper and iron pyrites.
These minerals are heated, and the sui
phur being volatile flies off In fumes.

the Process OF Manufactare.
Would you like to know how to man.
ufacture diamonds-real diamonds? The
process is somewhat difficult, requiring
time. patience and some outlay OF mon
ey, but then consider the possible re-
suits. The diamond, we know, is SIM
ply carbon IN q transparent crystalline
form. 1t comes of humble parentage
and is brother to the lump of coal.
Unlike easily crystallfzable bodies,
carbon is insolubIe In all ordinary solv-
ents, but molten metals win combine
with it. Let the diamond maker choose
iron for solvent for charcoal. melting
it in an electric furnace. allowing it to
take up as much carbon as it can-in
other words, saturate itself with car
bon. The crucible containing the white
hot metal should then be plunged into q
bath of molten lead. The result will be
that globules of iron will rise to the
surface of the lead and are quickly
cooled on the outer surface. Inside the
hard crust the iron remains for some
time in a molten condition, and as iron
expands in solidifying the contents of
these little globules receive a pressure
unattainable by any other means.
When the lead becomes solidified some
bullets OF iron will be found bound up
in the mass. Dissolve with some pow
erful acid first the lead and then the
IRON and residue of carbOnaceous
matter will be found to contain tiny
crystals-real diamonds. Any chemist
with a well equipped laboratory can
make diamonds in this way. but the
largest of them will not be more than
fiftieth of an inch i'm diameter

ITS FINAL SESSIONS

ENCE DRAWING TO CLOSE.
Topics Discussed In Papers at Morn
ing and Afternoon Sessions To-
day-General Discussion.

The Catholic missionary conference began
its concluding sessions In Mcmahon Hall of
the Catholic University this morning.
Three papers were readily Rev. A. P.
Doyle, c.. 8. P. secretary treasurer of the
Catholic Missionary Union and rector of the
Apostolic Mission House, whose theme was

Its Corporate Action be Enlarged" by Rev.
Francis Kelley president of the Church Elk
tension Society, on Church Extension and
Convert Making" and by Rev. Walter Ell

of Missionary Training" Great interest was
manifested by the delegates in the several
topics, and there was extensive discussion
of EACH Father Doyle was in the chair,
and Father Curin. the secretary. took the
minutes.
The initial paper of the day was on the
Catholic Missionary Union, and through ii
Father Doyle made a plea for pushing out
responsibilities among the leaders of the
diocesan mission bands, and suggested that
an advisory board be constituted which
would have a voice in the election of the
directors. Father Doyle's paper occasioned
considerable discussion, but 1t brought out
a strong expression of not only allegiance
among the diocesan band for the mission
house, but of union and helpfulness.
Interest was also awakened by the paper
OF Rev. Frank C. Kelley on THE Church
recently established a center at Lapeer,
Mich, and has for its purpose the enabling
of necessitous and Isolated congregations in
the far west and the south to build small
churches for their immediate needs.
Training in Mission House.
The final paper of the morning was by
Father Elliott. and it dealt largely with the
character of the training in the mission
house. well as the personnel of the stu
dents, this year. He said that the year had
been something of boom year. During
last year there were but nine priests living
in the mission house. but this year there
were thirty-ffve attending the lectures, and
next year the outlook was even brighter.
In the audience at today's session there
were twenty-five students from Baltimore
including fourteen representatives of the
JosephIte order. of whom is a colored
youth.
Among the papers to be delivered at the
final session this afternoon will be paper
by Father Smith, Paulist on Literary
Propaganda" and by Mrs. Burke, editor of
the Sunday Companion, on "The Sunday
School Movement"

with the papers on THE Negro In
America" and The Foreign Missions and
the Propagation OF the Faith" Both topics
were ably treated the former by Father
Duffy of the Josephites and the latter by
Rev. l. A. Walsh OF Boston.

ming his paper. that compels our atten-

Negro Question Serious.
80 far as we Catholics are concerned
there is a negro question and very serious
one. Eleven million negroes. of whom less
than per cent are Catholics. cannot fail
to give food for earnest. unceaslng thought

more than money-apostolic men and wp-
men are needed IL the negro and his de-
scendants are to have the priceless treasar3

Father Duffy then spoke OF the religious
nature of the negro and now the character
of the Catholic religion is peculiarly suit
able to his religious needs. While 1t teaches
him restraint of passion, at the same time
its beautiful ceremonial takes his eye and
fascinates his heart.
Father Walsh In his paper on foreign mis-
sions gave some glowing satisfies OF the
enormous development OF the foreign mis-
sions. During the nineteenth century, he said
there were 26.o0o.000 conversions to the
church in the foreign field alone. TIE
American Catholic Church has not done SIS

there is an awakening TO the demands OF

At the conclusion of the paper Father Ell

the Faith would set aside the collection for
one year it might star a seminary for for

and practiced medicine and founded hos

Examinations and commencements, Mr..
Foote said, are not modern inventions.
They had them in the thirteenth century.
The term doctor came first into use at Bo-
logna, in the school of law. They were
performed with the cooperation of the en-
tire faculty and accompanied with great
pomp and noise and ringing of bells. The
candidates first made discourse. the mer-
it's of which were reviewed by professor.
Then he took an oath to fulfill his duties
toward the profession and the public. Hay
ing done this so-cailed doctors hat was
placed on his head, a ring put on his fin
ger, as token of knightly rank; gold belt
fastened around him and the book of Hip
pocrates opened before him. He was then
invited to sit down beside the president
who embraced and blessed him. Next, the
new doctor made speech of thanks, and
a banquet closed the ceremony
At Vienna he was obliged to present to
every doctor of the faculty cap and pail
of fine gloves, and to every licentiate and
bachelor pair of ordinary gloves.
