The Women of Australia
BY BILLY BRAYToN

Australia is happy land. After all,
that is as 1t should be. for happiness
is generally the quality of youth. and
Australia is young country filled
with ambition and courage and hope,
untrammelled by the traditions that
nece ssarily belong to a nation with a
long history. and without shade OF
that pessimism which. unfortunately
for us, generally accompanies the eN-
perience of years.
The Australian cities are new and
clean, and we saw none of those dead,
gray slums that make the heart sad
in American cities. 1t seemed to me
and, of course, / do not pretend to
write with any authority--that the
conditions of life in the Antipoldes

and that the poor man has a much
better time there than he does here.

WHAT THE WORLD EATS.

mainly
Bread grain, potatoes and rice form
the staple sustenance of mankind.
Two years ago, the date of the statis-
tics, the leading countries of the world
produced 129,000,0G0 tons of potatoes.
100000 tons of wheat, $4,000, 900
tons of rye and 100000 tons of rice.
Wheat is the chief basis of the ma
tional nourishment of Englishmen,
Frenih, Spaniards, south Italians-in
north Italy maize takes precedence
and Hungarians and it noids complete
supremacy in North America and
Australia
In German-speaSing central Europe
wheat has a large consumption, but
not to the extent that it is used in the
lands named; the principal food is rye
bread, not because of the poverty of
the people, but because its taste is
better liked. In Russia rye bread has
a decided lead.
Germany is the land Of potatoes and
rye. In 1908 she raised $4,000, 900
tons of potatoes more than a third of
the worlds crop, and more than any
other single country, even Russia,
whose crop in her European territory
was 100000 tons. Austria and
France had each a 1900, 000-ton po-
tato harvest. The inhabitants of Gel
tic countries, in north France and
Ireland, and also Belgium and Hol-
land, are great potato eaters. On the
other hand. in England, Italy, Spain
and America, and in Asia and Austria
liza, the potato is a subordinate article
of diet.
Rice is overwhelmingly ahead of
any other food is Asia. In Europe it
is scarcely raised. Germany used in
1907 not quite 100000 tons. Millet
was once the daily food of the masses
in Europe, but has gradually been
dropped and is eaten now mostly by
the Slavs beyond the eastern frontiers
of Europe and by the negroes in Afri-

RULE on CONDUCT.

We are ever making ourselves over
by our thoughts and deeds. We can
make every action of our life, every
thought of our mind effectual if we
Will. We must devote good deal of
thought to the ought-to-be, the shall
be. and remember, that as we think,
as we work, so shall be the result.
Look up, not down. Think not Of
yourself, but of others. Gather up
your scattered forces and direct them
toward a chosen ideal.
Learn to master yourself You may
not be able to do what some other
men do. but you can make your life
successful if you have the genius Of
self-control Rouse in yourself an un-
conuuerable will. Do not for a mo-
ment acknowledge defeat. Have no
expectation but of the day when you
win be free from all infirmities, all
weaknesses. all doubts. Gather conf
dence from your impotence. No lack
in all the universe but there is sup
ply. Hold firmly TO the conviction
that YOU will possess IRe qualities re-
olI.site to success. Say of nothing
that it is beneath you nor feel that
anything is beyond your powers.

AN INTERESTING INCIDENT.

An instance of the effect of grace
is told in letter which we recently
received from a mission in Bangalore,
India. This father was called to min
lister to a dying pagan woman in a
village where there were no Chris
tians. To mis- surprise the woman
knew something of the Catholic belief
and asked for baptism.
1t seems that forty years ago she
had casually listened to the preaching
of Catholic missionary, who. in an
interview she had with him after
wards, told her unless she received
baptism she would not go to heaven.
Returning to her village, she passed
beyond Christian influences and never
came In contact with them again.
now she was about to die and she did
not want to go to the devil, so she
begged the missionary to baptize her.
The apostle whose words had made
an impression on her conscience, had
been called to his reward years be-
fore, and this conversion was an evil
dence that his apostolate was still
fruitful.-Monitor

the university. He is, we are told,
from Franco-IriSh family. He made
his theological studies in Milwaukee
and later at the University of Inns
bruck. Returning, he entered St.
Meinrad's seminary, Indiana, and was,
by dispensation, ordained before the
canonical age priest by Bishop Cha
tard. He is an accomplished ecclesi-
astic, speaking French and German
readily, and to some extent also
Italian. He is known as one of the
eloquent priests of his diocese, and is
greatly loved and esteemed by the
clergy and laity.
