Glenn Farming Profitable.

Honest, now, don't you like to see
farm kept clean OF all unnecessary
trash and the fields clean of weeds?
1t really adds to the worth of the
farm. In the eyes of the man passing

ton to the roadsides. Where hedge

Pure Water By conden.ntio-.

In the big desert OF Chill there is
a considerable amount of brackish
water. but no water that either human
beings or stock can drink. Science,
however. says the Los Angeles Times,
has come to the aid of this rainless
section OF the country in the form
Of an ingenious desert waterworks,
consisting OF a series of frames con-
tanning 10000 square feet of glass.
The panes of glass are arranged in
the shape Of v. and under each
pane is shallow pan containing
brackish water. The heat Of the sun
evaporates the water. which condenses
upon the sloping glass, and, made
pure by this operation. 1t runs down
into little channels at the bottom OF
the v and Is carried away into the
main canal. Nearly a thousand gal.
Ions of fresh water is collected daily
by this means.

A family OF barn owls will number
from three to seven birds. 1t is diff
cult TO believe what lot of vermin
and rodents family OF owls will con-
sumo. An old owl will capture as
much or more food than a
dozen cats in night. The
owlets are always hungry. They
will eat their weight in food every
night and more II they can get
it. A case is on record in which =
half grown owl was given all the mice
1t could eat. 1t swallowed eight one
right after another. The ninth fol-
lowed all but the tail, which for some
time hung out of the birds mouth.
The rapid digestion of birds OF prey
is shown by the fact that In three
hours the little glutton was ready for
a second meal and swallowed four
more mice. II this can be done by a
single bird what effect must a whole
family of owls have on the rodents of
community?

Bitter milk may originate from two
sources. The first source IL dependent
upon the cow. while the second is due
to the growth of bacteria In the milk

while the second class is sweet when
taken from the COW. but the bitterness
occurs after standing for a short time
and increases In intensity. Bitter

result from improper feeding with

Conversation of Bees.

In an article on bees and ants by
CASTOR Bouwer In the Revue Heb
domadaire the writer contends that
these insects carry on conversation
among themselves and that. while this
is done by means Of their feelers. they
are not entirely dependent upon them.
"A whole colony" says Mr.. Bouwer,
"in an anthouse or a beehive often
responds instantaneously to a signal
which may have been given without
contact 1t is interesting to see an
ant laborer for whom burden is too
heavy go to fellow, make sign or
give a certain touch with his feeler,
and then see the second insect Join
the first In lifting or moving the OBJ
ject."

College Employment Bureau.

In an effort to better assist ambitious
young people to secure better educa-
ton, Spokane College has started an
employment bureau. A systematic eff
fort will be made to secure positions
where young men and women can make
all or part of their expenses while at
tending college. This assistance is en-
tirely free to young people. Last year
about so students helped themselves in
this way, and the indications are the
number will be greatly increased dur
ing the coming year.
s. G.. Logan, who has charge of this
phase of the work, recently stated that
he would be able to find very desirable
positions in private families for at least
fifty young ladies. These positions are
in some of the best families in Spokane,
and in many cases the young ladies are
given nice homes for doing but little
work in the home, aside from acting as
companions. Several of the leaders in
the college circles make their expenses
in this way.
A great variety of work is done by
the young men and, with the aid of the
new employment bureau, the number
who can largely make their own way
will be greatly increased.

OLD REMEDY In NEW FORM.

rather Thomas b. Sherman son of the great
GENERAL Sherman, thinks that the followers Of fine
emmanuel movement are just beginning to grasp
an IDEA quite familiar to Catholics for centuries
past He declares that the Church "has had and
used the same method of healing through the mind
Tor hundreds OF years. Our confessional takes the
place OF suggestion. Ever since I was seven wears
Old ! renewed my body of mental troubles by con-
fesslon The great interest with which the people
are receiving the Emmanuel movement shows the
deslre OF the American people for more adequate
religion. one which touches the whole body and
mind"
He also contrasts this movement with Christian
Science, follows: "UnIess there is something to
offset the Christian Science teachings the countrys
asylums will be crowded that they will be bur
den to the public. The teachings of Christian Sci
ence are contrary to nature. It would have you be-
leve that what is is not. In interviews that have
had with several superintendent of insane asyums
they tell me that there many patients in them as
the result of study of Christian Science The doc
trlne would have disbelieve in his senses. and
teaches that nothing is real. The Emmanuel move
ment is the antithesis of the Christian Science
teachings in that it teaches people that pain is real
and that evil is real but it teaches that these pains
are brought on by wrong state of mind For years
and years the Catholic Church has used suggestion
to the mind and mental troubles of our church
members"
What the superintendent told Father Sherman
of the large numbers of followers of Christian Sci
ence in insane asylums applies, as is we'll known
with equal truth to persons given to spiritual
ism, which has unsettled many mind to the point
of dethroning altogether, and too often per-
manently and incurably.

PAPAL DIPLOMATIC SERVICE

During the early history of the Catholic Church
the custom was followed of sending temporary
legate to of discord and re-establish
friendly relations with civil authorities but since
the closing years of the fifteenth century a perma-
nent representative of the Pope has been stationed
at the capitals of the various Catholic nations
The supreme head and guiding spirit of the en-
tire pontifcal diplomatic service Is the Sovereign
Pontif He marks out the policy to be adopted and
the to be pursued by the subaltern personnel
and no important transaction can be arranged or
concluded without his knowledge and approval.
The practical supervision and management of
these matters is entrusted to the secretary of state
who is aided and advised on all important occasions
by the Congregation for Extraordinary Ecclesias-
teal Affairs. The diplomatic corps consists of leg
ates of various ranks accredited to twenty
tions of Europe and South America
Papal or apostolic secretaries were first employed
by Innocent VI during the sojourn of the pontifcal
court at AMgnon. The custom retained by his
successors though the number of these officials
fuctuated considerably during the various pontif-
Gates At the present time there are but two papal
secretaries the secretary of state and the secretary
of briefs to princes and of Latin letters.
Before the loss of the temporal power of the
Popes the secretary of state had number of duties
which have fallen into allegiance. He negotiated
commercial treaties with foreign states looked after
the defense of the papa frontiers provided for the
naturalization of foreigners and protected the rights
of papal subjects IN other countries.
The administration of the pontifcal diplomatic
service is practically speaking, in the hands of the
secretary of state With the consent of the Pope he
selects the nuncios and other representatives of the
different governments which maintain diplomatic re-
lations with the papal court He furnishes these
bassadors with credential letters and instructions
gardng the aim and objects of their mission and the
methods they are to follow in their legations.
He receives their reports the state of religion
+I,a;r and on the conduct of affairs in
touch with the conditions of the relations of the
Church and state throughout the world. He is the
trusted counsellor and mouthpece of the Pope in de-
vising and carrying into execution the politicore-
lgious policy of the Holy See and concludes in the
name of the Pope, all important conventions and
concordats with the nations of the world.
He must keep a vigilant eye on the course of
events in all the great capitals of the world in order
to give the Sovereign Pontif timely information of
any contemplated legislation which might initiate
against the interests of religion On Tuesdays and
Fridays he receives the diplomats accredited to the

royal personages who have had audiences with the
Pope.
In addition to these strictly diplomatic functions
the secretary of state has many other important du
ties He receives and examines the petitions for the
lection and dismemberment of dioceses and the re
ports on the character and fitness of those proposed
for vacant episcopal sees in all countries of the
world which are under the common law of the
Church, except Italy, and presents his opinions and
recommendations based these reports to the con
sistorial Congregation for final action The newly
the secretary of state who also appoints, with the
knowledge and consent of the Pope the consultors
of these congregations. He replies to the kilograms
and letters of greeting and homage sent to the Holy
Father and on his behalf sends letters of common
dation and congratulations and bestOws marks OF
distinction ON those who have performed some sig
nal service to religion by their writings or works OF
benefcence.
AS president of the Commission of Cardinals for
the administration of the property OF the Holy See
it is his duty to make up the annual budget OF re-
ceipts and expenses and provide for maintenance
of the apostolic palaces. The present secretary of
state is member of the following important congre-
cations: Consstorial, Holy Office, Council Sacred
Rites and Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs.
Until its recent annexation to the Congregation
of the Council he was project of the congregation
