is a bad plan to keep cattle on the

Crescent Shaped viennese Bread.

The origin of that Viennese bread
shaped like crescent, which is found
in most places on the continent,
dates back to 1888. At that time the
Austrian capital was being besieged
by the Turks under the terrible Grand
Vizier Kara Mustapha, and as they
failed to take the city by assault they
decided to dig passage under the
walls, AMI so penetrate into the town.
In the daytime the noise of the
siege made the sound of the tunnel
ling inaudible and at night time the
defenders Of the place were asleep,
all but the sentries and the bakers.
1t was the bakers who as they baked
tho bread for the garrison, heard the
pickGXes of the miners coming nearer
and nearer and gave the alarm, In
the fighting of the Bakers Association
took their share with the utmost
bravery, and as reward for their
services the emperor gave them per-
mission TO make a special cake shaped

MISSION WORK IN HAWAII.
Educational system--Resuits Of the
Labor OF the Missiorari

Most Americans will admit that II
was fortunate for the predominance
Of American civilization in Hawaii
that the American Missionaries were
the first on the ground and were
thoroughly established there in az
vance Of any competing religion, says
the Honolulu Advertiser. They
brought the rugged old tenets Of
their Puritan ancestors. They taught
them with intense conviction and
flaming zeal They soon established
complete ascendancy over the minds
of chiefs and people. In 25 years
their labors had converted the sociai
system OF Hawaii from barbarism to
civilization; its political, from despot-
ism to constitutional liberty.
Hawaii thus became a welcoming
home for civilized enterprise and free
American activity in time for the new
California era in the Pacific. The
numerous mission families with their
churches and schools formed fav-
oring nucleus for the establishment
OF a growing white community Of h
high social order, the parent of the
delightful social status now found on
all the islands
Conspicuous among the leading
fruits of missionary labor is our
splendid system of education which
reaches every child of whatever race,
guiding him into familiarity with Eng
gh n1 I'd tnu rH nH
tion in the high school. And here 1t
Is simply due to recognize the effici-
erl cooperation of the Roman Cath
ole mission. Although of French
race, those good men and women
have applied themselves with zeal
lish education. To attest this is the
great st. Louis College, in which a
corps Of highly trained American
brothers for many years have educat.
ed many hundreds of successful pu.
pills. Also the Convent of the Sacred
Heart. where the sisters have given
pure and graceful culture TO many
hundreds of Hawaiian girls.
The mission also supplies "A most
wholesome supervising and parental
influence In our large Portuguese COM
munity, whose orderly and industri-
Gus character indispensably needs
such SUPERVISING and nurture. In
this and other ways the strong police
power of the Catholic pastors be-
comes of high public value.
The Protestant churches make the
claim of upholding a higher standard
of domestic and social life, after the
New England rather than the French
patterns. AS an example it was
claimed during the epidemic of chol-
era 10 years ago in Honolulu that
owing to their superior intelligence
and more sanitary home life no case
of cholera appeared in any household
of the Protestant church members.
But we believe that every Protestant
worker would readily admit that tho
competition of the Catholic religion
has been to them wholesome stimu-
lus to pastoral activity and antidote
to sluggish proclivities. The two
types of the Christian religion are
evidently destined to a long continu-
ance in Hawaii.

The offensiveness of the present
defect could not be exaggerated, per-
haps, but II is best to guard against
exaggeration in dealing with it.,
writes William Dean Howells, In Har-
per's Bazaar. Not long ago we talked
with an observant Englishman, who
was hardly the most willing of wit
nesses, but a just as we'll as a gentle
spirit, and we asked him II he had
been much struck by our far-famed
nasality since coming among us.
No, he said, not half 50 much as he
had expected; but what he had no.
ticed was that we spoke drawlngly
tardily did their Office.
It seemed to use, when we thought
the matter over, that there was a
great deal of truth in what he said,
and we now commend his remark, to-
gether with our own less lenient ac-
cusations, to the attention OF the
American Woman's Speech Reform
ers.
What they want to get at Is the
average offense, and not to err as TO
its precise nature.
There is no doubt that certain Of
our women twang, and whine, and
whiffle, and whinny, but possibly
close inquiry might develop the fact
that, after all, it may be lazy and
careless mismanagement of the voice
in the sort suggested which is most
to be corrected.
