The New York Evening Post declared
in recent editorial that there never
has been time when it was more i'm
portant than now to offer children ex-

antidote to all this yellow literature
Our esteemed New York contemporary
suggests good, strong, manly books.
Now that the premium season is at
hand, those who have the giving of
books to our Catholic children should
be careful as to what kind of books
they give. 1t has not been unknown
that children have received books as
school premiums that were anything
but suitable gifts.

Fade not yet. o summer day.
For my love has answered yea"
Keep US from the coming Night,
Lest our bosoms suffer blight.
Fear you not; if love be true,
Closer will it cleave to you;
'Tis the darkened hours, that prove,
Faith or faithlessness in love.

A Word to the Wise.

The editor of the New Zealand Tab
let, who is priest, writes:
Unless the clergy had the science of
angels and the voice of the last trum-
pet they could not overtake the harm
that is done in homes by the exclusive
perusal of secular news sheets and by
the false conceptions regarding Cath
Ole faith and practice that from time
to time are printed-not necessarily
with any intent to mislead-in their col
umns. The Catholic paper is the priest
in the household. And we trust that
the day is near at hand when it will
be as intimately and as formally part
of the church's many-sided activities
as her churches, schools and institutes
of charity. Meantime, the true Catholic
paper is doing duty toward the Cath
Ollie public as real as any of these, al
though of different kind. The Cath
Ollie public. too. have a duty toward
the Catholic paper The nature of that
duty is sufficiently obvious. This is a
case in which, to the wise, word is
sufficient"

-
ing One Man.

Bath, S. D., Nov. 17.-This commu.
nifty is stirred by the most daring rob
berry ever attempted in this locality.
The entire place is aroused, posses
are securing the country and there
seems little chance of the fellow final
ly getting away. ,..'.
A group of four men were idling
about the railway station at Bath
about 10 o'clock last night. waiting
the arrival of the train, when the
hold-up genius entered the place.
He leveled his weapon at the group
and ordered them to hold up their
hands, which they did without a mo-
ment's delay. He then ordered the
men to march into the operators
room.
Two of them were about to comply,
when the other two, whose names are
given as Parsons and Bendicson, turn
ed on the fellow and engaged him in
a hand-tc-hand battle.
The robber was getting the worst OF
it, when he suddenly fired at close
range. Bendicson reeled and fell with
one bullet hole in his neck and an
other through the left side of his
cheek and shoulder.
AS Parsons sought safety in fight
and BendicsOn went down, the man
leaped through the station window
and disappeared in the darkness.
Bendicson has been brought here
and although his condition tonight is
precarious, it is believed that he has
a good chance of recovering. !

RHEUMATISM PRESCRIPTION

The increased use of whiskey for
rheumatism is causing considerable
discussion among the medical frater-
nifty. 1t is an almost infallible cure
when mixed with certain other ingre-
dents and taken properly. The fol
lowing formula is effective: "To one
half pint of good whiskey add n
n of Toris Compound and n
ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound.
Take in tablespoonful doses before
each meal and before retiring"
Toris compound is a product of the
laboratories of the Globe Pharma-
ceutical Co, Chicago, but it as well as
the other ingredients can be had from
any good druggist.
