Wintar Care OF Hands.

Hands should be given special atten"

few simple lotions and the precaution
Of wearing warm gloves outdoors they
may be kept in. very good condition
the winter through. A few drops OF
spirits of !. benZoin in, the water Ia
which they are washed VIII aid in
keeping them smooth Equal parts Of
glycerin and srosewater or glycerin
and distilled water well rubbed into
the skin at night are very healing,
Loose kid gloves from which the finger
ends have been cut should be worn
when lotion Is used.
Lemon juice is one Of the best rene
dies for whitening the hands. Vaselfne
and lard or olive oil are excellent for
softening the skin. Five drops at

and one ounce of rosewater is a SIN.

Most hands are as stin and wooden

A hand may be as expressive as the
face There is the famous picture OF
the praying hands of Albrecht Durer,
which depicts nothing more than two
slender white hands with long pointed
fingers, delicate nails and transparent
skin. They are so clasped as to ex,
press the most profound religious de.
votion. Most hands express. very lit
tie, or very little that is pleasing. We
have all seen the fat, pudgy hand, in.

thick, heavy red hand, expressive Of
coarseness or brutality, or the color
less, bony hand with large knuckle'
and thumb and inturned fingers, e1
pressive of selishness and grasping
but It is seldom that the well proper
toned, well kept, supple and graceful:
hand Is encountered. Grace may bt
as much a characteristic of hand al
of the figure. As a rule, the Anglo
Saxon~hand is not graceful. This is :
chara cteristic of the hand of the Latir
races, which is generally flexible and
wildly expressive. Perhaps this is ons
reason the latter excel as musicians
for the utmost ease and elasticity arr
required of the hand Of a pianist, vic
linist or performer on any other mu
steal instrument. No stubby, short

ITALIAN WOMEN AMI
The GODDESS School

| The decision of the Women's congress
in Rome on the education question is
surprising and shocking How is it TO
be accounted for, considering that the
Italian electors are strongly in favor Of
religious teaching in the schools, as
was evident during the recent debate
in the chamber? Having read full re-
ports Of the discussion at the congress,
we are in no doubt as to what hap
pened; Catholic ladies were in evidence.
They spoke Well AMI defended the rights
Of parents and the church with skill
and dignity. But Italian Catholics gen
orally were evidently unprepared for
such an attack upon religion. The So
cialist and Freethinking parties, on the
other hand, had carefully arranged
their program beforehand They sent
ladies to represent them who could ad-
dress a meeting with all the ease and
readiness of the male anti-clerical era
tor, and who were not a whit less in.
clined to champion every strange and
uncouth theory, if only it did not c1un-
tenance Christianity. Having advocat-
ed Buddhist Confucian and other ideas
picked up in literary jungles they sue
ceeded in passing by a large majority
resolution proposed by Signorina NAL
mari, Socialist lady, affirming that the
instruction in the primary school should
be undenominational, and that in the
secondary school religious instruction
should be confined to the history of re-
ligions. The Catholic ladies who were
present at the congress have issued a
formal protest. Manifestiy work lies
at hand for them. In conjunction with
the clergy they should arouse the moth
ers of Italy to the danger that besets
the schools of the country.

The "christian World" and Catholics

Within the past quarter of a century
a great deal of accurate information
about the Catholic church has reached
all classes in this country. As q con-
sequence bitter and uncharitabls 81
lacks upon Catholics have almost
ceased. Protestants, for the most part,
would be ashamed to repeat the OLD err
rors as to Catholic doctrines aud prac-
tees. for this would be equivalent to
admitting that they are unacquainted
with the writings of Newman and other
Catholic authors of distinction BuI IN
certain newspapers the ancient inclina-
ton to view everything Catholic With
pronounced disfavor still fingers, and in
this journalistic category we must place
the Christian World. Our Roman cor
respondent today exposes a false inter-
probation of a papal concession which

The Irish University Bill.

Religious prejudices are stronger per-
haps in Ireland than in any other part
of the world. In the creed of the Prot
estants there is something of the dour
character that belongs to the Protest
antism of Scotland. to which land a
considerable proportion If them can
trace their origin. But, strange to say,
whilst hostility to the Catholic religion
is giving way little by little amongst
the Scots, it is as unyielding as ever
amongst the northern Irish Protest
ants. That the Presbyterians will reap
many benefits from the new Belfast
university no one can deny: yet the
general Presbyterian assembly has con-
demned the scheme by a vote of 396 10

the soul Sc that It. can no longer dis
tinguish between right and wrong.
When specticism and infidelity have
taken hold of the mind, then indeed
has the light become darkness. And
when indifference to the dictates of
the moral law. when impurity and
sensuality are openly tolerated by So
cety. then the conscience has be-
come scared: and when murder-bTu-
tai murder and infanticide-hagran
dishonesty in business, and the first
principles of socialism and commun-
ism prevail, then the era of barbarism
has indeed commenced.
OF all the nations constituting the
British empire. there is one, and only
one. wherein the Luminary of Faith
and Truth, Notwithstanding all the
suffering inflicted upon that poor OPP
pressed land, still shines respondent,
and wherein the silver light of per-
sonal and domestic purity still gilt
tiers with unsullied excellence and
glory.
She is furnishing witnesses of the
Truth Of God in every city of England
and Scotland, in the great centers OF
America and Australian civilization,
and even on the continent she is not
unrepresented. When the apOstacy
Of Europe is consumated the children
of s.. Patrick will be lights shining in
dark places, cheering the faithful rem
nanus, encouraging the disconsolate,
attracting to themselves the weary
wayfarer and the benighted traveller,
who had for a long time lost them
selves in the labyrinth of doubt and
unbelief. struggling in the mire of
abomination and wickedness. It
seems, then. that in these last days
Ireland and the Irish are the people
especially chosen by Good to fight the
good fight of Faith against the in
fernaI powers Of hell: and let them
take courage with the thought that
their fidelity to the Faith is a pledge
of their future glory, and that their
patierce in the school of suffering.
through which they have now nearly
passed, has been their earthly purgu
tory, to fit them for the work for
which Ireland seems destined by AL
mighty God.-The Hon. Colin Lindsay.
