Powder Made at Home.

There are many women who prefer to
make their own toilet articles rather
than to buy them. They are skillful in
the mixing of ingredients, and arrive at
very good results.
To them the following recipe for tai
cum powder, which is commended as
harmless and to be made at home,
should be welcome.
Put four ounces of talcum powder in
a glass jar and pour over it eight ounces
of distilled vinegar Let it stand for
two weeks. shaking it daily; then filter
it through coarse brown paper, and
wash the powder in distilled water. Fill
ter it again until no taste of the vinegar
remains.
Mix the powder, together with fifteen
grams of spermaceti finely comminuted
and three grains of carmine with suffi-
cient violet water to make a paste. Put
in open-mouthed jars and cover with
linen to protect it from dust while it
dries

Meaning of the Mass.

Protestants, who do not understand
the ceremony of the mass, often wonder
what there is in it to attract such
close attendance. To them preaching
and hymn singing are the accented
forms of public worship.
It would therefore be we'll to tell our
non-Catholic friends that all the cere-
monies have a meaning and relate to
the Passion of Christ. When, for in
stance. the priest begins the function
he kneels at the foot of the altar, and
there he represents Christ in the bloody
sweat in the garden of Gethsemane
Then he goes up the steps and kisses
the altar. and we are reminded of the
kiss with which Judas betrayed the
Master. Then he goes to one side of
the altar and then to the other and back
to the center of it. and we recall how
our Savior was led before Annas and
Caiphas and PLATE and Herod and back
to PLATE and finally to the hill of CAL
vary.
The priest washes his hands. and we
think of PLATE doing the same and de-
claring that he is guiltless of this inno-
cent blood. When the conservation
takes place and the Host is raised
above the priests head to be seen by
the congregation, we behold Jesus
nailed to the cross and lifted up to die.
And so the sacred drama goes on-He
dies. He is buried, He rises again, He
ascends into heaven, and the Holy
Ghost comes down to bless the church
and abide with it forever With that
blessing, given by the priest, the words
are heard, Go. for mass is over" and
the people. having taken part in offer
ing the holy sacrifice, depart in peace.
thanking God for the grace of their
presence at such celestial mysteries
Is it any wonder that the mass is a
magnet and that Catholics do not need
preaching or music or reading to in
crease its charm?

mouth CiviIity."

There is an old saw that mouth CIV
ility costs little, but is worth less. Like
many another time-worn saying it is
not all truth.
To be civil and mean it, is no special
merit; to be civil when you would
much raG.er be the other thing means
self-repres ion that is character form
ing.
Do you think that placidity when
you rather champ, keeping your
tongue in leash when your spirit would
be soothed by cutting loose, cost moth
ing?
Often politeness is seemingly achiev-
ed at the cost of self-respect. People
have sighted or slandered you. The
primitive women longs to pay in kind,

t dignity saws "Trnore it," conven-

but dignity says ignore it," conven-
tionality and policy even gushes.
To tell your friends just what you
think of them, to be as rude as you'd
like to be, would be such comfort at
times, that to refrain is self-denial.
AS to it's worth, mouth civility is in
the magnate class. Even when you
know it isn't meant, agreeableness is
a mighty catcher of well-wishers.
Insincere pleasantries are coin that
will buy in home truths every time.
Even though you cannot take yous
oath as to backing your words with
your beliefs, are not those words worth
much that sooth rather than wound?
Mouth civilities may be deteriorat-
ing for the speaker; they are mighty
uplifting to the other fellow.

Courtesy has been defined as. be-
nevolence in little things. One that
is truly courteous is unselfish and
thoughtful. He carefully avoids hurt
ing any ones feelings: he cheerfully
keeps his own emotions in check
Wien there is danger of conflict. He
is at all times and places an advocate
of the rights of others-a champion of
the weak, the aged, the defenseless.
When he is in the company Of selfish
Doors his efforts are unappreciated,
his kindness d;sregarded, his self-im-
notation unrewarded. but if he would
be consistent he will avoid associa-
ton which he cannot improve, and
which will most certainly debase him.

When You Are Tired.

Don't grit your teeth and work hard

Don't talk any more than you can

Lie down in dark place if only for

Don't read anything in which you are
not interested.
Don't feel that everything must be
done in one day. There are 1854 more.
Realize that it is better to leave

Avoid people and their woes at that

Don't try to improve yourself. Give
your mind a rest.

great help.

OPEN DEALING IN PAINT.

Buying paint used to be like the
proverbial buying of . pig In .
poke" Mixtures in which chalk.
ground rock. etc. predominated were
marked and sold as Pure White
Lead" the deception not being ap-
parent until the paint and the paint
ing were paid for. This deception is
still practiced, but We have learned to
expose it easily.
National Lead Company, the larg.
est makers OF genuine Pure White
Lead. realizing the injustice that was
being done to both property owners
and honest paint manufacturers, set
about to make paint buying safe.
They first adopted a trade mark, the
now famous "Dutch-Boy Painter" and
put this trademark, as a guaranty Of
purity, on every package Of their
White Lead.a They then set about
familiarizing the public with the
blow-pipe test by which the purity
and genuineness of White Lead may
be determined, and furnished a blow
pipe free to every one who would
write them for it. This action was in
itself guaranty of the purity of Ma
tional Lead Company's White Lead.
AS the result of this open dealing
the paint buyer to-day has only him
self to blame II he is defrauded. For

painting, address National Lead Com
