| true. put DeduIOfC KNOWS dD- solutely nothing about Catholic ism," and do not think he wants to know. Penny catechism in- d ed! ]! Every bull and edict is sued from Gregory, the first, all through the bloody march of this blighting anti-Christ, is law and what Catholics must believe, and Beaufort. tells us that a penny catechism contains all the Catho- lies teach. Does Beaufort ever get down on his marrow bones and implore St. Anthony when he has lost anything? Does he know that evenh here in the bright blaze of free schools, which Catholics hate, Catholics go to St. Anthony for help when they lose any val uable thing; l do not say they all do this, bat it is common.
 Every mode of torture invented by the devil has been used by the Catholic Church on those she pronounced heretics. TT hre e hundred million Catholics are not all fools," etc. If this is good argument, the five hundred mil lion followers of Mohammed have the better of it. No. the priests are not all fools they have the finest picking of any set of men on earth; It is the dupes like Beaufort that are fools. Priests in cities get $25 per month. ]" How do you know what they get? They do not pray for people in hell, nor do they pray them out for money" Now this shows one of two things, viz. Beaufort is densely ignorant of Catholic teaching and practice, or he is one of the glibest liars in the State.
 Why refer me or any other man to Alfred Young's book, when the people and nations 1 have referred to stand out liv- ing picture of the blighting in- fluence of the Catholic Church, where she has absolute control?
 And Secretary Taft! Why man, if am not misinformed he got part of the mutton. He is Cath ollie, so 1 have been informed, and have not seen a denial. If those priests are doing so splen- didly now, what have they been doing for the past four centuries? If they are such self-sacrafic- ing lot of men how came them to hold all the valuable lands for which our government paid the priests 100000! Oh, how Christ-like, Beaufort will say. Get money any way is cardinal tenet with the pope and priest hood of Rome.
 Heretic Jones has the floor, 1 have no time to waste on him" How dignified !! If Beaufort wastes much more time, wrest- ling with "backwoods theology" and heretic Jones he will get so badly tangled up he will have to get bloodhounds to get him out. 1 don't think 1 ever had a con- pliment paid me that l appreciat- ed more than that handed me by Beaufort. Jones, the Heretic. " If he had expressed a good op- inion of my religious views I should at once have been a doubt ing Thomas.
 Beaufort claims that his attack on my little pamphlet did not mer- it such a reply as 1 wrote. What business did he have butting-in? The statement that he took ex- captions to is a simple historic fact, and he only shows his ig- horace in trying to controvert it. Don't Dutt-in where you have no business again.
 But isn't Solomons's P. s. a rich effeusion? When he says 1 ever attempted to rule or ruin the Baptist Church, he gets down to a species of lying that is

 Editor Picayune:
 am pleased to note that our Solomon is not too exalted, in his own opinion of himself, to get down from the dizzy heights of a Scottish castle and exchange
 pleasant greetings with a back
 woodsman that knows absolute
 ly nothing about Catholicism. !"
 Now, 1 would be inhuman if I did not gratefully accept this wonderful condescension of this wonderful defender of the "wo- man clothed in purple and scar let, !" Apoc. TIA, and emitting frog shaped spirits to go out and corrupt the world. And, by the way, Beaufort looks froggy, and may be a fulfilment of the proph- ecy. No, have not Maria Monk, and of course any book that tells of the infamy, corruption and debauchery of the c a h 0 l i c Church CD will be branded as liars by Catholic priests and their be- s0ttedly ignorant dupes like Beaufo
 Notwithstanding l showed the absurdity of allowing the crimi- nal to furnish all the evidence, Beaufort insists that this great est criminal shall be permitted to reject all testimony save and ex- cept her own.
 But Beaufort, the Sapient, says, Jones knows absolutely nothing about Catholicism. How does he know what I know? Has he added to the infallibility the om- present attribute? Does he think he can prate about my ignorance and thus hide the miserable his tory and blighting influence of the Catholic heirarchy?
 1 am of the opinion that it does not hurt Beaufort's conscience to lie when he thinks it necessary to carry his point. 1 suppose he will stand up brazenly and deny that his infallible pope sold indul- gences, !. Q. anyone wishing to commit any crime against man or woman could go to the priest, pay the money, get the indul- gence, commit the crime, and it is no crime! ! And this law-sell- ing indulgence has been only late ly set aside,
 Beaufort, the Hercules of ram pant Romanism, 1 suppose, wears all five of the scapulars handed down by the Virgin Mother of God' to such glorious saints as Simon Stock and confirmed and recommended by the great(?) and infallible Pope John XXI in his sabbatine bull, in which he says those who wear this scapu- lar shall never suffer eternal burning.
 Catholics of the United States have rubbed up against so much American 'backwoods ignorance' that they are a little shy of such hoodooism, but do not think that has got that far into the light yet.
 That scapular is a wonderful thing indeed-one wearing it if so fortunate as to die in the mid dle of the week, he gets out of purgatory on the following Sat urday, and just can't go to the eternal hell at all! Pope John says he can't and that's huff sed. "A little penny catechism is all Jones needs, etc. Is this where Beaufort got his wonderful know ledge of the old thlng? 1 guess it is, and that accounts for his profound ignorance of the subject under discussion. Were pos sessed of Beaufort's brass and egotism, even with bad spelling and bad backwoods theology I might make quite as good a

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

In choosing a grape fruit see that it
is heavy in proportion to the size. A
dry fruit is very light.
To polish a looking glass first rub ii
with a duster wrung out of cold water
and dipped in whiting and then polish
with a dry cloth.
If canned fruits are opened an hour
Or two before using. the excluded oxy-
gen is regained and the flavor improv-
ed. Turn out of the jar at once.
AS soon as a salt ham or tongue is
cooked remove 1t from the boiling wa
ter to a pan of cold water for a few
seconds. This will loosen the skin.
which may be easily peeled off.
To prevent cabbage boiling over
saves time both in stirring the cabbage
down and also In cleaning the stove
afterward. If a piece of lard about
the size of a walnut be dropped into
the cabbage pot 1t will not boil owe
To clean candlesticks, whether o
enameled or plain metal, fill them with
boiling water. Do not allow the water
to stand any time, but pour it away
and thoroughly dry the candlestick
with a cloth. In this way dirt and
grease are removed without doing
damage to the color or substance OF
the ~candlestick.
To dry clean lace heat some -four and
in this put the lace, covering it entire
ly. Leave 1t an hour or two, then rub
1t lightly and shake 1t well. Unless Ii
has been really very much soiled II
will then look like new once more
Valuable lace that cannot bear rub
bling may be covered with French chalk
and laid aside, wrapped in blue paper,
between the pages Of a book for a day
Or two. The chalk will absorb any
grease and leave the lace looking fresh
and clean.

A COURSE OF OK.
Try IL as an Antidote For the ills Of
the Strenuous Life.

In the choice of motor power allow
me to suggest the OK. The horse leans
forward to pull and even helps himself
along by bobbing his head. He jerks a
load out of a hard place by plunging
bodily against the collar, stopping and
lunging again. He strains through a
hard place and then starts suddenly
forward at his release. He works him
self into a lather, and you, If you are
the right kind of person, canno help
feeling for him and assisting him with
inward stress and strain.
The OK does not bob q horn. He sim
ply journeys, and the load goes along.
When he comes to a tough place his
pasterns do not bend down, he does not
squat to pull, he does not pinch along
on the toes of his shoes, he seldom
sweat. He does not exert himself at Il
patch of woven soil and then hurry up
when he is past It The chain becomes
sitter, and the yoke sits solder to his
neck, and that is all. There Is no sign
Of effort. The earth may grit Its teeth
and crunch as 1t swallows the plow, but
the OK stalks on HIS way. With the
share deep or shall 49, or lifted entirely
and hanging from .Ae axle. whether
he Is blowing earth or air, 1t makes no
difference to him. His most ponderous
task Is still himself. and he heeds no
~incidentals.
He is out for a stroll. He does not
allow work to interfere with the even
tenor of his way. His tendons are rig
ged to his outstanding rump bones like
so much spar and tackle, and he goes
along by interior leverage. Inside his
old woman hulk Is the necessary en-
CINE work, and he will neither go slow
er for this thing nor faster for that.
There is much about him besides his
disposition that Is self contained. He
Is the antithesis of the automobile. To
ride on his back is a cure for indiges-
ton; to ride behind him is a rest 70
the mind. A course of OK Is an antidote
for the Ills of the times.-Charles d.
Stewart In Atlantic.

A BRIER PIPE.
Get One That Is Smooth Inside the
Bowl, Says a Smoker.

Get One That Is Smooth Inside the
Bowl, Says a Smoker.
A collegian who prides himself on
the sweetness and color of his brier
wood pipes and pretends to know a lot
more about them than any ordinary
smoker spent half an hour in a tobacco
shop making an addition to his already
large collection.
Some pipes he discarded because of
the grain In the wood. There was too
much stripe or too much birdseye, he
remarked. When he found one which
suited him he put 1t aside until he had
gathered three or four which appar-
emily were all right, and then came his
final test to pick out the best of them
all.
He held each with the bowl toward
the light, then slowly rubbed his little
+dn2ar Aasida. TWQzke DISQUALIFICATION
repeated the operation with the others
until only one remained out of the dis
card. That one he bought
want 'em smooth inside" he ex-
planned. "A brier pipe roughly fin
tshed inside the bowl isn't worth both
ering with. l wouldn't take one for a
gift; wouldn't take the trouble to try to
break 1t in, for 1t will never be any
good. 1t won't cake up right, and it'll
never be nice and sweet.
ave got a theory that when the In
side of the bowl is rough all the little
edges and points of wood char and
burn the first time you smoke 1t, and a
burnt pipe Is no good. That's why l
always take a pipe that has a bowl as
smooth on the inside as on the out.
"Then it doesn't char, but cakes up
evenly and gets good In a little time.
Maybe the theory is wrong, but it has
worked out well In my own experience,
and some of my friends who have tried
1t agree with me."-New York Sun.

CARING FOR MILK.
A Few Maxims of Value to the Young
Housewife.

A Few Maxims of Value to the Young
Housewife.
tuberculosis kills 100000 people
annually. 1t may be carried through
infected milk.
Select a milkman who has clean
hands, clean clothes, clean wagon.
clean cans and clean bottles.
Do not select a milkman because he
sells milk cheap.
Refuse milk that shows a deposit Of
dirt in the bottom of the bottle.
Do not forget that dirt In milk Is a
menace to health.
Do not forget that dirty milk may
kill the baby.
Always keep pasteurized milk cool.
Use at once Do not forget that germs
multiply more rapidly In ~pasteurized
milk than In any other.
Do not leave the milk uncovered any
where.
Do not leave milk In a warn room or
unchilled icebox. Protect 1t from lies.
Do not leave 1t out of doors in the sun
or exposed to cats and dogs.
Do not use the milk bottles for any
thing but milk.
Wash and scald milk bottles as soon
as emptied. Return clean bottles to
the milkman. Buy only bottled milk.
If possible.
While these "maxims'' may horrify
some good housekeepers who would
never think of being guilty of the
negligence implied, there are homes
without number, nice homes. too.
where sanitary and %hygienic rules are
violated constantly. In some of these
1t Is because the housekeeper is young
or inexperienced; in others, where the
care of the kitchen and marketing are
left entirely to servants ignorant or
constitutionally careless.
To those housekeepers let us wills
per that that attention to the meanest
detail in housekeeping Is not ignoble.
1t is not only woman's duty, but her
great privilege. A man cannot make
a home. He may build the houses.
Halls and chambers, roofs and domes.
But the women of the earth, God knows
the women build the homes!

One Industry Of the pesky Ant.

Out In Burma and the far east, where
sandalwood is worth its weight in sill
yer, the pestiferous ant is a valuable
assistant to the loggers of that precious
timber. The hard and fragrant heart
wood alone has value, but as the tree
grows this valuable heart is overlaid
by a soft and worthless layer forming
is felled and cut into lengths the log
gers let the timber lie. At once the
ants begin work upon the soft wood,
which Is sappy and sweet enough to
attract them. In a few weeks, less
than a month In the case of the largest
butts, the ants deliver the heartwood
free of all the worthless sapwood.
