Silence Is Golden.

No end of trouble has come into the
world through too much talking.
If our first mother had not stopped
to talk with the serpent, the curse
would never have como upon the race
and her descendants of the feminine
gender would probably never have be-
come over garrulous. A fitting sense
OF reserve is one of the chief attrac-
tions of womanhood. Its possessor
carries with her dignity that COM
mands respect and admiration every
where she goes.
To know how and when to be silent
is of as much Importance as to know
when and how to speak effectively.
The woman who can control her
tongue and look intelligent while othe1s
speak is given credit for all the wis
dom she possesses, and oftentimes
more. One tires of transparent wo-
man, who tells all she knows and
much that she does not know. The
over talkative woman makes a roor
life partner: she may be amusing to
a casual observer, but her daily asso-
ciates tire of hearing the continuous
rattle Of an endless chain of mere
words.

was Father Judges heart that won the
friends who now deplore his loss, and
who can never in any of the vicissi-
tudes of life forget him. He was a
gentleman to the manner born. He
had all the finer feelings which Christ
1antty and persecution working
through the centuries have developed
IN the best of his race He was kindly,
sensitive, generous TO a fault. His
friendships were deep and constant.
No hope of personal gain, no consider
alton which ambition might pursue,
could make him forget for one moment
his friends. He threw himself into the
cause he advocated with an ardor
which was holocaustal. He was inca
pable of taking inventory of possible
results to him. He dfl not want to
learn where failure might land him.
If the cause appealed to his sense of
right he took it UP. despising the pet
ty considerations which are all-import-
ant with meaner souls.

those who know the tender relations

pen that labored to arouse a. dull conf

Walls of Dr. Judges wrath been
poured upon the vultures and larpies

madness because the public We're be-
ing detiantly robbed by those who
have sworn to protect their interests,
because innocence was being debauch-

ceaselessly against the propaganda of

ible when met by the quiet look, the
ference and the high bred air of per-
feet courtesy, which disclaims to stoop
to the level of what is low. And in
the end courtesy breeds courtesy. For
often, when it meets boorishness, the
subtle influence prevails, until un-

Of the church.
On Tuesday all the cardinals in
Rome will go to the Vatican palace
and present their Christmas greetings
to the pope. The ceremony is. one
consecrated by long standing tradi-
ton. and it is expected that in the ad-
dress which he will at that time make
to the cardinals the pope will again af-
firm the views regarding modernism
which he expressed at the consistories
this week. Plus X. is exceedingly Bit
ter over the fact that several priests
and prelates who had been personally
warned of the danger of trying to per-
vert or modify the doctrines of the
church have refused to adopt the views
of the Vatican authorities and have
thus practically defied them.
1t is not often that pope has spok-
en- about such matters in d consistory
as Plus X. did this week, because as
a rule. the church in the past adopted
more drastic measures than a speech
which the perversion of the doctrines
of the church was contemplated by any
Individual or prelate pretending to
have connection with it. In his speech
at the consistory last Monday the pope
dWelt on the fact that many personages
whose duty it would have been to
uphold and defend the doctrines of the
church turned against them. This ex-
preston in the papal speech to the
cardinals is interpreted to mean that
some prelates are held by the pope
TO be to blame for the modernist moye-
ment
Acvcording to some Vatican prel-
ates, the fact that no American cardi-

of this week may be taken to Indicate
that some guilt of the kind denounced
by the pope may possibly be found
among the hierarchy of the United

prominent American clergy. Some

So many false formulas and malicious
statements concerning his medicines
had been published through the con-
nivance of jealous competitors and dis
gruntled doctors, that DIR. Pierce deter
mined to completely disarm his assail-
ants by full and frank statement of
their exact composition, verifying the
same under oath as complete and cor
rect. This he has done and to the
complete discontinue of those who had
assailed his good name as well as the
well-earned reputation of his world
famed medicines.
Not only does the wrapper of every
bottle OF DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, the famous medicine for
weak stomach, torpid liver or bilious
ness and all catarrhal diseases wherever
located, have printed upon it, in plain
English, a full and complete list of all
the ingredients composing it, but a
small book has been compiled from
all the different schools of practice,
containing very numerous extracts from
the writings of leading practitioners
of medicine, endorsing in the strongest
possible terms, each and every ingred-
lcub COubdlucu III LII. iCfCC ulCQi-
cines. One of these little books will be
mailed free to any one sending address
on postal card or by letter, to DR.. r. V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y, and requesting
the same. From this booklet it will be
learned that DIR. Pierce's medicines con-
tain no alcohol, narcotics, mineral
agents or other poisonous or injurious
agents and that they are made from
native, medicinal roots of great value;
also that some of the most valuable in
gradients contained in DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription for weak, nervous,
over-worked, rundown" nervous and
debilitated women, were employed, long
years ago by the Indians for similar
ailments affecting their squaws. In
fact, one of the most valuable medic
inal plants entering into the compost
ton of DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton was known to the Indians as
rSquaw- Weed" Our knowledge of the
uses of not few of our most valuable
native, medicinal plants was gained
from the Indians.
AS made up by improved and exact
processes, and with the use of specially
designed chemical apparatus, the VIA
vorite Prescription" is most efficient
remedy for regulating all the womanly
functions, correcting displacements, as
prolapshs, anteverson and retroversion,
overcoming painful periods, toning up
the nerves and bringing about perfect
state of health.
