IMPRESSIONS OLD AND NEW
CONTINUED from PAGE II

Spa the oldest watering place in Europe. Spa Is
very much frequented place, the center of attrac
ton being its mineral springs The waters of Spa
sparkling and not disgusting to the taste, and
are very eticacious in effecting euro with regard
to nervous diseases and liver complaints. The
springs are sixteen in number, and each of them
has its special attraction and healing powers.
There is also at Spa a very extensive bathing es-
tablishment built at a cost of 100000 and supplied
with all modern comforts. The baths rangs from
franc to francs, and the establishment keeps its
doors open from a. m. to p. m. The country in
all directions around Spa is very beautiful and the
little towns and villages have each their distinctive
characteristic and linked in some way another
with names great in history. Two of these places
are immortalzed by Sir Walter Scott. Ambleve
and the old fortress of Franchemont. The former
the home of the fierce William de la Marck the
wild Boar of the Ardennes,' who terminated his
ignoble career upon the scaffold at Mastrecht in
1885. Reference is made to him in Quentin Dur
ward. The old fortress of Franchimont played
prominent part in the wars of Charles the Bold and
Louis XI, and from the ninth century even to the
days of the French Revolution its walls were almost
continually the scene of conflict. The peasants
will tell you the castle is haunted, haunted by the
ghost of a warrior whose duty it is to keep guard
over the crumbling ruins and the treasure which
was
"Amassed through rapine and through wrong
By the last lord of Franchimont'
A holiday in the Ardennes is certainly pleasure
to be long remembered and many tourists leave that
peaceful and beautiful country with the resolve to
come again another day.
Next week will take trip to that famous
old seaport town-Antwerp.

Sunshine in the Face,

Sunshine in the face is natural consequence of
sunshine in the heart The following little stony
from the Christian Endeavor World carries its cwn
lesson to those young people who are trying to
make their influence count for good.
In certain retail store are two young lady
clerks. Their counters are side by side One clerk
speaks fuently two three languages, is quick at
figures and keeps her counter in beautiful shape.
But, judging from the looks of her face you would
think that some time she had been in a thunder
storm, from the effects of which she had turned
sour
The other lady knows no foreign language, and
cannot speak even her own mother tongue very
well. She is rather slow at figures, and her con-
ter does not always look in the best shape But oh!
what sunny. winsome face she has; and customers
flock about her like bees about honey bush in full
bloom.
One day, the floor walker overheard an old coun-
try aunty request the sunny-faced girl to wait on
her from the other counter
But that is not my counter" replied the girl.
"Ach" whispered the aunty from foreign
shores "Nebber mind You wait on me. She
struggling her shoulders-"she so sour FACET

GOOD ADVICE.

Down in Atlanta, Ga, the Methodists have g
live journal which appreciates Catholic literature,
especially good Catholic journals. A recent issue
of the Central says:
eve do not realize as the Roman Catholics real
ze the value of organs which shall stouty stand fo-
what their respective churches stand. We have
heretofore called attention to the suggestion Of
Archbishop O'Connell of Boston that the priests
shall supply the members of the parishes with the
paper he controls. Get the papers into the hands
of the people, make the people readers; stir up the
faithful with newspaper articles; wake them up
with bombs of editorials put the organs under their
eyes at any cost of labor and persistence; that Is
the Catholic idea

The Ballad of Father eiIIigan.
(By request

(By request.)
The old priest, Peter Gilligan,
Was weary night and day;
For half his flock were in their beds,
Or under green sod lay.
Once, while he nodded on a chair,
At the moth-hour of eve.
Another poor man sent for him,
And he began to grieVe.
81 have no rest, nor joy, nor peace,
For people die and die"
And after cried he: God forgive!
My body spake, not ~
And then, half lying on the chair,
He knelt, prayed, fell asleep;
And the moth-hour went from the fields,
And stars began to peep.
They slowly into millions grew,
And leaves shook in the wind;
And God covered the world with shade,
And whispered to mankind.
Upon the time of sparrow chirp
When the moths came once more,
The old priest, Peter Gilligan,
Stood upright on the floor
"Mavrone, Mavrone! the man has died,
While l slept on the chair"
He aroused his horse out of it's sleep,
And rode with little care.
He rode now as he never rode
BY rocky lane and fen;
The sick mans wife opened the door;
Father. you come again.
And is the poor man dead" he cried.
He died an hour ago"
The old priest, Peter Gilllgan,
In grief swayed to and fro.
when you were gone he turned and
died,
As merry as bird"
The old priest. Peter Gilligan,
He knelt him without word.
He who hath made the night of stars
For souls who tire and bleed,
Sent one of His great angels down
To help me In my need.
HE who is wrapped In purple robes,
With planets In His care,
Had pity on the least of things
Asleep upon chair"
w, B. Yeats.

The court of Anvers, Belgium has indicated a
respected priest of Maestricht. who was slandered
by the editors of two anti-Catholic papers. These
journals published articles accusing him of having
placed some of the children of his school at work
glass factory where they were badly treated. The
editors were found guilty. One was fined $500, the
other $1O0, and in addition were sentenced to one
months imnrisnnment

LAST SPIKE DRIVEN

It Connects With Trunk Roads and Extends Thirty Miles Through
 Rich Section Of

Cottonwood, March 13-(Special.)- Today at noon the last spike was driv- en that connected the extension from Eleanor, Fla, to the old Forester railroad from Cowarts.
 The Geneva Lumber Company pur- chased from F. J. Garbutt Company the road from Cowarts to Cottonwood, with all their timber interests in this sec tion, and have been pushing their own road from Eleanor. to join the one al- ready built from Cowarts.
 This makes a line thirty miles long. which will be used for the present as a commercial road only. to be after wards made a common carrier with a passenger and mail train.
 Already four prosperous well estab- 1ished villages with a population of from three to five hundred inhabitants each, are touched by the new road. which are surrounded by good terri tory, and should make this a paying investment for the promoters.

make very tasty effects. Another pop ular novelty is patent leather foxed- button oxford with grey suede or serge top of black, brown or wine top. The butcher oxfords and the strap and but ton pump will vie with each other for fashionable preferment. While those in plain effects seem strongest at this time. there are sos many novelties shown that the fashion whimsies may turn to any one of them and in a meas ure submerge all else.
 Suede oxfords made with starlight tip and some small perforations along the seams will be very apt to catch on. Shoe styles are largely speculative and while we tell you here what Is being shownat the shops, what will be most worn Is a matter of fancy, that 1t is very difficult to forecast. Tn high shoes the button effects will unques- tionably predominate. This Is also true with the oxfords. A very safe purchase right now that will be fashionable all season, would be dark Russian calf butcher oxfords or button strap pumps, either plain or fancy tips with perforations. Dark shades of tan and golden brown will be extensively worn, as these shades will be so much worn in suits. Aside from the suedes that

To be strictly correct. my lady must

 every gown. This style is quite boon to the shoe dealer, but hubby Is like-

 departures. Gray Is the keynote and suede the finish that Is strictly in vogue. A grey suede strap pump, with leather bow to match. plain medium toe with short vamp. Is shown exten- sively by the smart shoe dealers. Of course, patent feathers will still be the leaders in quantity worn. but look out for the suede effects on Easter morn- ing and later at the fashionable sum- .mer resorts Combination treatments in leather effects are also shown in great variety at the swell booteries.

Fine lingerie waists are being made In similar style and show the most delicate embroideries and real faces in baby Irish torchon and Valenciennes patterns. Nearly all these trimmings are on vertical lines.
 It Is the skirts which have under gone the most change. They are made in all styles imaginable. and we see long and short skirts. with raised tunic and an underskirt reaching to the knee; skirts which are wound around the body like cloth; skirts tucked back or knotted at the back lie the corners of a handkerchief: skirts which form a single round plait at the back and front Others which have this plait doubled or even trebled. They all have one feature in comm on. however narrowness These vary from two and a half yards around to four yards. The skirts have recently brought out a new sensation, though Paris has become so hardened to the styles that 1t did not create the riot the original sheath skirt did. but 1t is no less daring. This skirt Is called "The Annragyne." It is very daring In cut and when In repose resembles any other plain skirt, but at the slightest movement it opens in fronteend reveals the lines of the lower limbs closely draped in the material It resembles our divided skirt without the fullness. What Is more. after the first shock 1t became very popular over there. and Is now worn by many. What success it will have over here is problematical. So much for the skirt which might
