Rev. Father j. NJ. Langlois, the
beloved Rector of St. Peter Catho-
lie Church will leave Sunday for
New York, and will then sail for
his native city, Lyons, in la belle
France. He will be away about
four months. His health having
been bad for some time, sea trip
has been advised for him, aud he
will have at the same time the op-
portunity of being for few weeks
with his family whom he has not
seen for nine years.
Father Langlois has not been
here two years, but by his kind
disposition and strict devotion to
duty he has won the affection of
the community irrespective of
creed. With the small means at
his disposal he has much improv-
ed the interior of his church as
we'll as the surroundings of the
sarred editice. He has taken the
leading part to form the st. Peter
Cemetery Association, and the
work done by the latter speaks for
itself.
The best wishes of one and all
are extended the Rev. Father for
an enjoyable trip, and that he may
como back in perfect health to
carry on the good work which be
has begun under such favorable
auspices. During the absence Of
Father Lauglois, Father Murgue
will have charge of the Parish.

TELL THE TRUTH.

Young man, when you are cour-
ting your best girl. don't get soft.
Don't say: "These little hands will
not do q stroke of work when you
are mine, and you shall have moth
ing to do in our homes hut to sit
all day long and chirp to the can
aries" Ae if any sensible woman
could be happy fooling away Der
time in that sort of style. A girl
has a retentive memory of the soft
things and silly promises of court
ship, and occasionally, in after
years, wien she is bending over
the wash tub or patching the west
end of your trousers, she will re-
mind you of them in the cold sar-
castle tones of voice.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications. AS they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way 20 cure deafness.
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when 1t is EN-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result. and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but all in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)

of the people is the voice of God,
aud foolish people shout as if this
were not folly. Another declares,
"that government is best which
governs least" aud those who do
not think, storm approval. An
other declares, that God inspired
the fathers with more than human
wisdom" and those incapable of
thinking, feel that a great truth
has been uttered.
Such expressions are appeals OF
foolish or corrupt men, to the
foolish or corrupt. Another ex-
preston often approved is, ''to the
victor belongs the spoils," thus
declaring in favor of system of
spoils of Office, aud corruption and
degradation in official life.
The voice of the people is not
the voice of God, since experience
shows that the people make many
mistakes, aud God makes none.
The voice of the people may be-
against the will of God.
The government which governs
the least is not the best, since if
this were true the best government
would be none at all-anarchy. In
truth, that government is best
which governs best, most careful
ly providing for the control need
ed by the people, protecting them
from their mistakes aud securing
their rights.
The "spoils" do not belong to
the victor, and he is corrupt who
regards office as "spoils," or who
treats the rights and privileges
entrusted to him as personal per-
quisites and advantages. Except
to corrupt men, there are no
''spoils of Office" and the victor
who is not corrupt will not admin
lister Office in the spirit that "to
the victor belongs the spoils."

administer offices as trusts for the

Street Washers.

Two cases Of Avenue Washers in
which there was every reason to expect
hoped-for conviction failed in the Po-
lice Court Friday because the detective
who made the arrests had neglected to Sc
cure supporting evidence. The court was
inclined to administer punishment. but
was prevented from doing SO by the lack
Of corroborative proof. 1t is highly i'm
portant that the city streets should be
rendered safe and decent for women, but
it is also important that no punishments
be administered unjustly. Judge Pugh
expressed his determination to go as far
as the law will permit in administering
pun,shments to break up the practice Of
men annoying women in the streets Of
this city. Thus the police are assured Of
the full support Of the court provided
they can bring in plain cases of guilt
There should be no lack of such cases II
the evidence OF the eyes and ears of Ave-
nue. pedestrians is to be credited. Scenes
are enacted on the city's chief street
nightly which call for the severest de-
nunciation and punishment. But the
blame Is not alone upon the men them
selves. Owing to the lack of a curfew
law and to the utter neglect of their
duty by many parents girls Of tender
years are permitted to parade through
the downtown streets at night without
respectable escorts and exposed to an
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-07-16
The Marine Corps,

It is to be hoped that the censures
administered by the Navy Department
as a result of the recent court of inquiry
into conditions in the Marine Corps will
have a wholesome effect and put a stop
to the factional feeling and manifesto
tons so plainly in evidence for months.
This branch of the naval service scored
a high prestige during the war with
Spain. The efficiency of the marine land
ing parties was early demonstrated In
that campaign and scaused the marine
Officers and enlisted men to receive the
high praise of the country. Nothing has
happened recently to lessen the regard
Of the public for the men Of this corps
of the ranks. But it has been plain that
some Of the commissioned officers have
been playing politics in a manner de-
serving of severe rebuke and calculated
to lessen greatly the efficiency Of the
corps in case Of an emergency. 1t is
unfortunate that efforts have been made
on the part of any faction Of officers to
dictate the appointment of the next COM
mandant. Perhaps some fault lies with
the higher officials of the naval organi-
cation for not taking earlier cognizance
Of the conditions In the corps and sharp
ly reminding all officers that the respon-
sibility for the choice of the highest off,
Ger and the reorganization Of the CORPS
upon the retirement Of the present chief
lies with the President, and not with the
subordinate officer. Now the rebuke ha.
been administered. and II is to be hoped
that it will be effective, though belated,
and that this proceeding will put an end
positively to the insubordinate, irrespon-
sible carrying of tales and spreading of
rumors and the use of unsoldierlike lam
suage. OF which the court of inquiry ha.
found abundant evidence. Probably these
censures will be all that is necessary to
re-establish discipline and to restore tn.
Marine Corps to Its high state of eficien
organization for which IL has been ira
ditionally noted.
