DUTCH CATHOLIC PRESS.

The most signal proof of religious
earnestness and intellectual activity
among Dutch Catholics is found in
the statistics of the Catholic press,
one almost feels tempted to doubt
ones visual power while reading the
returns on this vital subject Of our
times. Nevertheless, You find it stat
ed that these less than 100000 Cath
olics support fifteen Catholic daily
papers, some Of which in size, makeup
and general information equal the
leading secular journals of today To
these must be added thirty-one pa
pers, published either twice or three
times a week, seventy-six papers pub
lished once a week, and fifty-two
monthly and quarterly publications,
the last named ranging from the hum
bic but effective annals to the more
select reviews and magazines devoted
to theological, scientific and literary
subjects Catholic editors and jour
nalists each have their separate So
cieties for the purpose of working in
unison for the common good of the
Catholic press.

THE cRUoTH OF LANGUAGES.

There is an interesting and from
the national point of view a satisfac-
tory statement in the statistics lately
published in an Italian paper concern
ing the growth of modern languages.
According to the figures given the
English language, which century
ago was spoken by 100000 indi-
viduals. is now the means by which
not less than 100000 give express
sion to their views of things. French,
on the other hand, has spread less
than. any of the chief European Ian
guages. for whereas it was used by
$4,000. 600 men at the beginning Of
the ninettnth century, it is now spok-
en- by $4,000, 600. Seventy million in
1iyiduals speak German today,
against 36.OO0.0O0 100 years ago; g.
O00. 600 Russian, against S0,000,000;

SOME HELPS TO TRAvELING.

The ideal travelling bag contains
few necessary toilet articles, all light
and small. A silk or cretonne COW
cred rubber bag with pockets holds a
flat sponge or washclith, soap and
tooth brush.
This is the only sanitary way to
carry these things. The rubber lin
ings of the pockets should be wiped
every few days to keep them clean.
There should be an eyecup, too, and
small botte of boracic acid solution
(one-half ounce of boracic acid to one
half pint of boiling water). This is
a most healing and strengthening eye
wash and quite harmless. To strained,
tired, dustsore eyes it is very sooth-
ing.
In the bag there should be toilet
water also and a flash of toilet al
cohol The latter is soothing to
travel-sore feet and strengthening to
stiff muscles.
The toilet water of some delicate
perfume is refreshing when rubbed
on the face and hands during a hot,
dusty ride.

PAPER CAR WHEELS.

We naturally think of paper as
something lacking in strength and of
a paper article as being fragile, so are
somewhat alarmed when an encyclo-
pedic friend remarks that the wheels
of the car on which we are slipping
along at the rate of a mile a minute
are made of paper. This opportunity
to be alarmed occurs, however, on
only the best of railways, as paper
car wheels, though safer and longer
lived than any others, are also more
expensive.
The principal advantage of wheels
made from this unpromising material
is found in the fact that they are not
injured by the violent vibrations to
which car wheels are subjected.

OUR NEIGHBoR's REPUTATION.

We should have a special care at
all times that we say nothing deroga-
tory to the reputation to another, un-
less it is absolutely necessary. If we
cannot say something good, let US
keep silence. There is no one perfect
There is no man but what has sinned
that has not done some act in his
life that he is ashamed of or sorry
for. The mere mention Of this act by
another, in its naked simplicity, might
do harm; but who possesses sufficient
sagacity and impartiality to weigh the
actions OF his neighbour, and to judge
him? Who has seen his heart-who
has traced his motives to their proper
source, and known the exact circum-
stances in which he has been placed,
or the temptations against which he
has been obliged to contend and fight?

GOD SAVE ALL HERE.

There's a prayer that's breathed alone
In dear old Erin's land;
,Tis uttered on the treshold-stone
with smiles and clasping hand;
And oft perchance, tits murmured low
with sigh and falling tea.
The grandest greeting man may know,
The prayer, God save all here!"
In other lands they know not well
How priceless is the lore
That hedges with sacred spell
old Ireland's cabin door;
To those 1t is no empty sound,
Who think with many tear
NJ loved memories wreathing round
The prayer, God save all here!"
Live on, o Prayer, in Ireland still,
Live on for ev'rmore,
The echoes of her home to fill
When uttered at her door,
And guarding by its holy spell
The soul and conscience clear,
Be craven on each heart as well,
The prayer, God save all herei"

THE HISTORY OF SAINT GALL.

Saint Gall, from whom a flourish
ing canton and city in Switzerland de-
rive their name, was a native of Ire
land. Of noble lineage, born about the
wear $50. He was educated at the
famous monastery of Bangor, where
he was carefully instructed in gram
mar. poetry and religion, in Latin and
Greek, and finally was ordained priest
and became noted for his holiness OF
life.
In 585 he followed his teacher. st.
C6lumbanus, to France and accom-
panied him to Luxeuil and elsewhere
during his exile. When they were
about to pass into Italy st. Gall was
detained by illness at Bregenz, on
Lake Constance, and after his recov-
cry having by this time learned the
language, and finding that in this
TId frontier district there dwelt a
Urge pagan population, he resolved
TO remain where he was and en-
deavor to convert the people to
Christianity. Penetrating into the for
est. which then covered the country,
he chose out a spot for his abode on
the banks of the River Stomach and,
in 612, built a small OratOry with
some huts for himself and twelve
fervent disciples who insisted on fol-
lowing him. This was the origin of
the famous monastery of st. Gall.
In 615 st. Columbanus died at Bob
bio and bequeathed his pastoral staff
TO st, Gall. In the following year the
saint refused the bishopric Of Con-
stance, which was pressed upon him
by the clergy and people, but he pro-
cured the appointment of John, one
Of his disciples st. Gall preached at
Johns conservation a sermon in Lat
in. which is still eXtant, and is con-
sidered a very remarkable produc-
tion comprising a history of religion
from the earliest times, lin style SIM
pie, full Of force and piety and a great
depth of learning" In 625 he was
nominated by the monks to the alb
bacy Of Luzeuil, but refused to accept
It. He died about 645 and was buried
at his beloved hermitage, or, as some
claim, at Arbon, near by. a great
monastery bearing his name WAS
shortly afterwards erected on the site
Of his missionary labors. The abbey
Of St. Gall eventually became one of
the most famous monastic establish
ments in Europe, noted for the learn
ing of its monks, the splendor of its
architecture and its great library. st.
Gall is sometimes called the Apostle
Of Switzerland. His festival issOctober
Is. Many of his disciples became
noted, as st. John, bishop Of Con-
stance, and st. Magne and St Theo-
dOre, founders of celebrated abbeys.

EDUCATION AND EFFICIENCY.

Nowhere for many years CONTINUE
ously has the education machine
worked more untiringly than in Lon
don. Yet of the skilled labor Of Lon
don two-thirds is done by men and
women from the provinces, while
seven out OF every ten dock laborers
and 80 and 80 per cent of those who
seek refuge in night shelters are Lon
don born and bred. What does this
mean? Is IT merely the fiSce compe-
tition caused by the compelling at
traction of London, with its glitter OF
wages? Or does it prove some fatal
weakness in the London schools?-

PROPER TEMPERATURES FOR
FRYING

When fat is the proper tempera-
ture for frying it is smoking hot and
perfectly still. When it bubbles that
is a sign that it contains water, but
when the bubbling ceases and blue
vapor arises, it is ready for use. 1t
must be kept very hot to prevent the
food cooked in it from soaking up too
much grease. Moist foods will lower
the temperature for a. few minRtes.
AS soon as the food is cooked it
should be drained on brown paper.

THE BOYS WE NEED.

Here's to the boy who's not afraid
To do his share of work;
Who never is by toll dismayed,
And never tries to shirk,
The boy whose heart is brave to NEE
All lions in the way;
Who's not discouraged in defeat,
But tries another day.
The boy who always means to do
The very best he can;
Who always keeps the right in view
And aims to be man.
Such boys as these will grow to be
The men whose hands will guide
The future of our land; and we
Shall speak their names with pride.
And honor to the boy who is
A man at heart, say;
Whose legend on his shield is this,
Right always wins the day"

two hours sleep before midnight are

that men need less than women, since

be, knew before. and probably nobody

If the Radical Socialists still con-
stitute majority of the new French
Chamber of Deputies, their numerical
superiority has been diminished, to
the advantage of the pure Socialists
and of the Progessists (the moderate
Republicans). Also it is noteworthy
that partisans of the ministry in al
most all cases were elected with di-
minished majorities, which were in
some cases very small. The pure
Catholic party preserved its position,
and had the joy to witness the COM

pensions for disabled men and widows
and orphans, the outlay for replacing
weapons, uniforms and war material,
and compensation for other losses
sustained. Reckoning upon a basis
of 1000, 600 armed men, the daily ex-
penses would reach $5,000,000, and
campaign lasting six months would
mean $900,000,000.

TIPS ON SWEEPING A ROOM.
How to Do It Thoroughly With Little
Trouble.

1oW TO 10 II inorouShly WIN Llttie
Trouble.
In the first place, supply yourself
with sweeping sheets. How many OF
you have them ready? A substitute is
sometimes supplied by using the sciled
sheets from the bed for covering the
furniture. but that is not exactly a
clean method.
Should you wish to purchase new
sheets buy the coarse unbleached cot
ton cloth, double width, and bind 1t
with turkey red Make the sheets big
enough to cover the largest piece OF
furniture you wish TO protect in this
way.
Dress yourself for your work before
you begin it--a cotton frock which
fits easily i'm the waist and sleeves, 80
that your movements may not be ham
pered; easy shoes, sweeping cap,
which will protect the hair entirely,
and. if you are careful of your hands,
a pair of loose, old gloves.
Begin your work by carrying from
the room all small objects which you
cannot lay on some chair or couch,
that can he covered afterward. Dust
them before YOU lay them aside, using
Il cheesecloth or chamois cloth buster
which has been slightly dampened.
Next move out of the room all small
pieces OF furniture which can he taken
from the room easily, busting them
also before they are banished.
Cover closely with your sweeping
sheets all the furniture which cannot
be removed, using smaller cloths for
draping pictures and other wall orna-
ments which cannot readily be taken
down. Rugs and the like will, of
course. have to be taken out.
Have ready your damp tea leaves
or damp shredded paper for sweeping.
Never do dry sweeping. The dust
flies, no matter what care you exer-
else. When you use the damp tea
leaves it does not have the chance to
blow about the room and fill every
niche or crevice which supplies room
for it.
Sweep from the corners and sides of
the room to the center Go into every
recess with your broom.

REARING CHICKENS.
How to Take Care of Young Stock and
Feed Them.

When chicks are from twenty-four to
thirty-six hours old they are ready to
be moved from the incubators to the
brooder house. Put them in hovers
nearest the furnace. BE sure to have
heat up In hovers at least twelve hours
before the chickens are put in to In
sure the hovers being warm and dry,
There should he dry sand well sprin-
kled over the hover floors or some
road dust Sand is the best. Let the
chickens alone till they are thirty-six
hours old Then feed them some roll
ed oatmeal well rubbed up in the
hands Feed this for Il few days; also
some green evaporated bonemeal and
chicken grit. Give water and milk in
fountains. made by inverting some tin
fruit cans over saucers. first cutting a
notch in the edge OF the can about one
quarter of an inch deep. Such foun-
tain will keep chicks dry. aud the
drink will be kept clean. When chicks
are few days old begin to feed a
chicken food containing meat and
grain. Feed five or six times daily.
ON the south side Of the brooder
house have roomy yards sown to rape
for chicks when they are a week old
TO run in. and also provide rape for
cutting and feeding them later on
when the yard rape is used up. This
method Of rearing chickens is more OF
pleasure than work. Use plenty of
whitewash in houses. Put it on with
compressed air sprayer. That is the
best thing for the purpose. Fill every
crack and crevice that can be filled in
this way, and the job is quickly done.
During the warm months spray yards
and hovers with sulphuric acid and
water, four ounces of the acid to
three gallons Of water. This viii de-
stroy all yermn and their eggs. Most
cases OF cholera are only lice and
mites sapping the life out OF the chick
ems. Warm houses for the winter lay
ers can lie built quite cheaply OF rough
lumber, and liberal use OF heavy
tarred paper will make frost proof
houses.
