ONLY A ROSE.

One Sunday afternoon in the month Of October
as was passing through the Rue de Vaurigard in
Fars, 1t suddenly began TO rain Mechanically l
looked to the right and left seeking place of shell
ter The little church Of the Carmelites near
by and thther I FASTENED. When I entered l saw
Oh all sides decorations of flowers and lights, and
an immense crowd assembled.
what feast are they celebrating" I asked an
old lady who was kneeling beside me saying her
beads
She raised her head in establishment. "This IS
ne Feast Of the Holy Rosary, and as a memento
Of the day, the reverend fathers are going to pre-
sent all in church with a blessed rose"
with difficulty | made my way forward through
me crowd, when the Father Prior began to speak.
ilis pale and noble countenanee lighted up with
heavenly JOY, inspired, respected; the myriads OF
candles that burned around the tabernacle formed
Tor HIM a kind Of brilliant aureola; his mild and
penetrating eyes rested with pleasure upon the
P!ous throng that surrounded him and listened to
MS words His address was brief and simple.
am going to distribute roses among you" he
SSlo They are very small, for we are poor. Let
gheir perfume remind you of the virtues of the
queen OF Heaven, and inspire you with the desire
y striving to initiate her example. They are
II5essed' that they may bring to your homes the
uesslng Of Mary. Mothers, let them adorn the
gadla Of your little children. Wives present them
70 Your husbands; tell them this flower will serve
Y d monitor when duty calls them from YOU
Ioong madens, wear them on your breast, that the
ASPIRATIONS Of your heart may be to Jesus and Mary
united in the same love-"
Then began the distribution. When l APP
preached to receive my rose, the Prior smiled; he
seemed to read in my thought that word chance
Iat had brought me there. / bowed and left the
l1ufch much more serious than when L entered
.e0umed home and placed the blessed rose on the
porfalt of my mother Poor mother! she seemed
y look upon me then more tenderly than ever
reTn9ps 1t was her prayer in heaven that had dl-
1sI'ed my steps. I passed the time in rejecting
lyon how little things often produce great effects.
cannot tell now all that my surging thoughts re-
,;saeo to my mystic rose; it was almost contes-
son; and the little flower was the heavenly balm
s 4at applied to the fostering wounds of my heart
tomorrow" said to myself before falling asleep,

MY MOTHER DEAR.

There was a place in childhood that [ remember
well,
did tell,
And gentle words and fond embrace we're given
with JOY to me-
When was in that happy place-upon my moth
ers knee.
When fairy tales were ended Good night" she
softly said,
And kissed and laid me down to sleep within nv
tiny bed;
And holy words she taught me there-methinks 1
yet can see
Her angel eyes, as close knelt beside my mothers
knee.
In the sickness of my childhood the perils of my
prime,
The sorrows of my ripper years, the cares of every
time,
When doubt and danger weighd me down-then.
pleading all for me-
1t was fervent prayer to heaven that bent my
mothers knee.

in reality no free thought. Much less is man
free in his actions Two individuals own adjoin-
ing properties. The fence which ncloses one prop
erty marks its owners right. Surprising ne other
thought that some of that property belonged to
him, is he free to take possession of itl Not GER
tainly on the strength of a doubt, for nothing but
certainty his part could dispossess the other
The law, too, steps in and by the evidence adduced
asserts his thought a mistaken one. He must
then bow before the legal majesty. Therefore truth
and right confirmed by certainty the true marks
of real liberty and the person not possessing them
is not in the strict sense free. The Catholic pos
sesses that certainty of the truth the teaching of
1900 years confirms it. and none outside of the
Catholic church can, in religious matters, claim
that certainty. Therefore Catholics and they alone
are free II. y.

QUERY.

QUERY
city reader asks, "How was it possible for the
savages mentioned in one of Mr.. Crawford's let
ters to be drunkards Where could they get their
whisky to make them drunk? Has not Mr. Craw-
ford made mistake a misquotation?"
G. K B.
Whisky is not the only intoxicant beverage Al
cohol is extracted from herbs as well as from veg
etables and cereals Wood alcohol is obtained by
the destructive dstillaton of wood. There can be
question of the savage instinct in securing in
toxicants 90 As to the mistake or msquotation y
that could not be possible, as Mr.. Crawford stands

and scientist. We have mailed the letter to our

STRONGER MARKET IN
CHICAGO WHEAT PIT.
Weakness at the Opening Soon
Followed by BuIlish Senti-
ment; Corn Is High.

CHICAGO, March lo.-May wheat
closed aMsc higher. corn &c and oats tlc
higher. Provisions were l2Ac to l2l0l5c
lower.
Wheat manifested moderate degree
OF weakness ut the opening ON selling by
pit traders, and liberal receipts. Be-
fore the end of the first hour. however,
the market had regained all of the
early loss and sentiment became more
bullish. While numerous damage reports
were received, there were also many ad-
vices that the fall-sown crop is gener
ally in good condition.
The market derived its strength chief
ly from the advance i'm the price of corn
and oats. May wheat opened &c TO &c
lower al 75A@75}c, advanced 10 76c and
closed at 75smT6c,
Aggressive buying, due to the fear
that the crop movement will soon de-
crease, caused decided strength in the
corn market. May corn opened un
changed TO kc higher at i5lc TO i5Gc. adj
Yanced 10 i6ec and closed at the top,
May oas advanced more than a cent
because OF an urgent demand by bull
leaders. The more distant futures. how
ever. were inclined To drag because OF
reports that seeding has been started
In portions Of Illinois under favorable
conditions. An advance of &c TO 1c in
the price Of cash grain strengthened the
options. May opened &c TO &c at 40ic TO

When Mrs. Housckeeper reached
very tired and covered with dust, she
opened up her market basket and sll-
emily went over the purchases she had
made during her three hours strenuous
shopping along "thc Row.
First, there was the meat for today
dinner Nothing extra, only roast
of pork, at 17l2 cents a pound. but
rather tender and succulcnt at that.
Then there were apples, red and shiny.
probably the best the market has had to
Otter inns scasoi.. Mt four pounds for
% cents, and though the season of
fresh spring greens has come apples and
pork arc not to be despised. The spin
ach, for which she had paid cents a
pound. was exceptionally good. Though
there may be washouts along the line,
though the canny truck farmer may
hold things up for better prices. the
hcnthen Chinee and his little patch of
gardcr are the standby of the market
man and the houselsccper Celery, too,
IL bunch she had. for 1T is so late and
there is so little likelihood of it lasting
until next week, that the ID cents she
gave for the bunch was not grudged.
There were two buDches of fresh.
crisp Utah lettuce in the basket. and
this lettuce she considered bargain Mt
this time of wear, even though the mar
ket is a stiff one at present. for she
gave up but cents pound for it.
But she was not a bit satisfied with
her potatoes. True, thew were not in
the market basket. but 90 cents bush

that every merchant was digging down
INTO his pocket for 80 cents or dol
lar more n crate this week Another
thing she found cheaper 10 buy in small
quantities was the large and iuicy
orange, for after carcill pricing, she
discovered that. while she might buy a
dozen Of them for 30 cents. almost tho
very choicest in the market. at the
same price she had paid all winter, the
wholesaler, to his sorrow, has had an
additional dollar tackled on to each box
There waH asparagus in her basisut tJo,
She could not resist the temptation Of
investing in the snappy stalks for
which the retailer wanted "buth 40

Of tomatoes lifted out of tho caracious
basket. and for these another % cents
had come out of her purse,
She was plainly discouraged, after 4
