THE GENERAL INTENTION
recommended by His Holiness
Pins

The intention this month is one that
should appeal strongly to all those de-
voted to the league, since lukewarm-
ness is so often the woe of a soul that
was once aglow with love for the
heart Of Christ. In a certain sense, it
Is a poison of the spiritual system that
may enter into the life not only of those
OF the world, but of those specially
consecrated to God. How may it be re-
cognlzed? BY the disposition of the
VIII towards the things of Christ.
When repugnance is felt to the ac-
Iual fulhllment of ones spiritual duties:
when dryness and distraction are
round IN prayer; even when, through
weakness, there are occasional lapses
INTO mortal sin, none of these neces-
saflly means that lukewarmness has
set IN. 1t is not a matter of feeling,
nut certain stagnation of the will
Morning or evening prayers are omit
ted or said with wulful carelesSness:
the sacraments/ are received in rou-
llne; little duties are despised: small
heed is given to the promptings of
grace; Venial sin is made light of, and
all the while the will has no desire to
lead the soul to greater heights or
back to the fervor of other days. 1t
wants to be let alone, and go the easy
path. Such is the lukewarm soul. Is
there any wonder that God should have
said of it, Il would thou vert cold or
hot. But because thou are lukewarm
1 will begin 10 vOmit thee
out of my mouth" (Apoc iii. 15-16)).
1t makes a pretext of friendship with
Christ where there is little more than
formality. 1t casts a slight upon the
gifts that cost Him His Hearts best
blood; it is like offering cold words to
the sick when it is our power to lessen
anguish of mind of staunch a bleeding
wound.
For such are we to offer our prayers
and good works during this month
that God may strengthen their wills
and enkindle in their hearts the fire
which He came to send upon earth;
that the great truths may come home
TO them in all their eternal fullness,
and that they may be blessed with per-
severance. through the spirit Of morti-
fication and of prayer And for those
among them who may reap no profit
from orr prayers in their behalf we
may, in the true spirit of the League,
make generous reparation to the Heart
that never abates in its love for saint
and sinner.

His Memory at Fault.

A veracious observer dropped into
one of Washington's most popular
cafes the other day, merely to get a
match While the bartender was mix
ing the phosphorus a man prominent
in local business and social circles
strolled in and took a half Nelson hold
on the rail From his appearance one
would have thought that he had just
recovered from a severe illness or was
suffering from fatty degeneration of
the equilibrium. Evidently he was well
known to the worthy mixer, for that
dignitary drew thither and put himself
at the sick mans service.
Shay have you sheen m frien',
Congressman --, in here this after
noon?"
Yes, sir; he was in here about an
hour ago"
The visitor leaned farther forward,
and with evident anxiety inquired in
what was meant for a whisper:
SHAY, wuzsh 1 with him?"

LOST IDEALS.

Have we not all, amid life's petty
strife,
Some pure ideal of a noble life
That once seemed possible? Did we
not hear
The flutter of it's wings. and feel it
near,
And Just within our reach? 1t was.
And, yet
we lost it in this daily jar and fret,
And now we live in vague regret;
But still our place is kept, and it Will
wait,
Ready for us to fill it, soon or late;
No star is ever lost we once have seen,
We always may be what we might
have been,
Since God, though only thought, has
life and breath,
Gods life can always be redeemed from
death.
And evil. in its nature, is decay,
And any hour can blot lat all away;
The hopes that lost in some far dis
lance seem
May be the truer life and this the

There are $4,000 900 people in Amer
lea who obtain their living through
gainful occupations. or, In other words,
are wnge-earners. OF these less than
100000 belong to what is known as
organized labor, but these 100000 are
led by cunning agitators, who make
such loud noise that the people have
come to believe that all who work for

WHY BOYS LEAVE FARMS.

Almost every parents wish is that
his bows especially might be brought
up on a farm. The fresh air, fresh
milk good food, the abundance of room
and exercise, and the opportunities or
becoming ultimately acquainted with
plant and animal life-these are con-
siderations that have always and most
powerfully appealed to thoughtful and
wise people as reasons why rural is
preferable to city life for childhood
and youth.
Why. then, do so many boys pre-
fer to leave the farms and enter upon
the more exacting competition of city
life?
Wallace's Farmer is of the opinion
that II is because the boys are not
treated right on the farm, and that
the boys leaving the fathers service
as soon as he possibly can is in many
cases the farmers own fault; for the
latter. instead OF cultivating in his son
a love for the work of farming has
developed in him a thorough dislike
for 1t. A case Is cited of boy who
was the son of a large farmer and
who was forever ruined for life on the
farm by his fathers foolishness. He
sent him to bring home lot of cattle
that he had recently purchased. On his
way home the boy had the opportun-
ity to buy some additional cattle at a
very low price, and he did so. The
cattle were bought right, were worth
the money, and more: but the father
vehemently abused the boy because
he had exercised his own judgment.
The paper quoted gives this sensible
advice:
When you start that boy to blowing,
give him the best plow and the best
team on the place. Teach him how to
hitch up his team, and how to keep
his plow In the proper condition. A
balky horse often makes balky boy.
II you are hauling manure, don't give
him the worst fork, but the best one.
| Don't make him work in the garden.
| where there are usually more clods to
the rod than to the acre In the field,
| Let him do the easier work In the
| field. and look after the garden your
self Don't give him the meanest COW
| to milk but the best one Don't tell
! him to do things without telling him
how 10 do them, and why; and II he
can find better way than yours, let
him try II.
II the farmer is so forgetful as "a
give the hoy the disagreeable work and
to treat him generally as drudge In
stead Of an equal and a partner In the
business, he need not be surprised II
the boy makes up his mind that the
farm Is no place for him.

THIS couNTRYs CONSTITUTION
ST. Louis Globe- pemocrat.

One of the reasons why the United
States Constitution has, with a few
extensions, met all the demands of an
expansion which nobody could have
foreseen at the time II was framed.
and also met the demands OF foreign
and civil war. Is that its trainers dealt
with broad general principles only.
They did not attempt to legislate for
particular situations. That work was
left for Congress. The men who were
assembled In that little Philadelphia
conclave Of 1878 were wise enough TO
foresee that many things could hap
pen between that time and 1887 or
1907 which were not dreamed OF in
their philosophy. These things they
prudently relegated to the people who
should be confronted with them In
laying down broad general principles
they let Congress have the opportun-
ity to apply them 10 the issues as they
arose. For that reason the Consti-
tuition framed n century and a nth
ago, with less than half dozen ex-
tensions and notifications. has stood
all the strain which has been placed
upon Il.
