Daniel OConnell, the famous liberia
tor of Ireland. was a man of wonderful
talents and one of the most eloquent
and persuasive orators Of his time. His
faith was the strongest and his piety
most edifying. In the midst of the
manifold and trying occupations of his
political apostolate, he never omitted
to hear Mass daily. He was, besides. a

who was a great admirer of OConnell,
often attended the deliberations in the
House of Commons. in order to hear
him. He had been informed that
O'Connell was In the habit Of receiving
Holy Communion every Sunday morn
ing at the six o'clock Mass in one of
the poor little Catholic chapels which
in those days were used for divine
worship in London. He desired to as
certain personally how faithfully this
great man observed this religious GUS
tom. One Saturday night a most i'm
portant debate had taken place, in
which O. Council had participated. The
discussions were not brought to a close
until two o'clock in the morning. The

kneeling beside a pillar. 1t was o'con-
nell. At Holy Communion the great
man threw down his cloak and ap-
preaching the altar-railing, he knelt
down among his poor countrymen, to
receive the Bread of Life. In view of
the edifying example of this illustri-

that the Emerald Isle should be noted
for its steadfastness in the faith, it's

Be Trua to Yourself.

One of Shakespeare's characters, in
giving good. wholesome advice to his
son, has this to say in conclusions:
This above all. to thine own self
be true. And it must follow, as the
night the day, Thou can'st not then be
false to any mani"
But what constitutes being true to
oneself. you ask. WELL it all might
be summed up by answering that it
consists in responding to Gods grace.
In every human soul there is imaged
the ideal character-our better self
which prompts us to higher and more
noble effort. and teaches us to scorn
the low and contemplate acts that
tend to degrade us body. soul and
mind. 1t is the image of our Creator
In our souls. and we should endeavor
tc attain to its projections. That is
what constitutes being true to one
self, and II we always are responsive
to the grace of God in our souls we
will be true to ourselves and never be
false to any one.

How Dreams Como True.

You have your dream. No doubt
you would like to live in a castle and
wear fine clothes and be lady or gen.
tleman Of great significance. There
is only one way to achieve this. Help
the world to make some of it's many
other dreams which are not SO very
different from your own, come true,
and it will help you to realize yours.
Every dream, YOU know, has work be-
hind it for some one. If you want a
castle, some one has to build it. If
you want a. dress, some one has to
weave 1t. Therefore your way is to
work for some one else in the best
way you can, and in turn some one
else will work for you. You will be
paid. And out of your pay, if your
work is good, all the things which
you desire, the dreams which you
want to come true will come true.
Mind you. the world rarely gives us
exactly what we want. And, also, we
rarely want what we thought we
wanted, after we have it. Neverthe-
less, the dreams Of the world, such
as they are-your dreams and mine
are really achicvable, and the regular
shops end factories and trades and
professions, which are all tbout us,
show us the way. Work is the an
swer-givfhg the world what it wants
by sowing. reaping, manufacturing,
distributing. Get in on that. showing
what you can do as maker of dreams
come true, and the world will quick
ly respond and your own will become
a reality.

Joseph o'Mara, the Irish Tenor.

Chicago is soon to be accorded the
privilege of hearing the great Irish
tenor, Joseph O'Mara, sing the melo-
dies of dear old Ireland, as they have
not been sung since the days of the la
mented Billy Scanlon. Mr.. O'Mara
was brought to this country from Ire
land few months ago by the enter
prising theatrical firm Of Brooks &
Dingwall, and had his premier APP
pearance at Philadelphia in the Irish
comedy drama, Peggy Machree,"
when he succeeded in creating such a
stir among the sedate playgoers Of
that tranquil town. that arrangements
were at once made to transfer him to
the Broadway theater in New York
City, for an extended run at the con-
clusion of his Philadelphia engage
ment. In New York he established
himself as one of the reigning hits and
has been holding forth to tremendous
business. In fact, his success on
Broadway was even more pronounced
than in Philadelphia. and press and
public alike were not slow i'm proclaim
ing him the only Irish comedian of the
present day-alleged or real-whose
songs have the genuine, true flavor Of
the shamrock. and convey to his hear
ers the aspirations. hopes. joys and the
sorrows of the land from which he
springs.
Mr.. O'Mara's Chicago engagement
will be limited to two weeks, and will
he. at McVicker's theater. Feb. 14th.
when he will be surrounded by the
same excellent cast that supported
him during his Philadelphia and New
York runs. Reservations for tickets
can be made by wire or letter direct.

cheerfully arranged for through the
Grand opera house, st. Paul.
