Friendship.

For the New World.
Will you tell me, what is friendship
It's another name for love-
Loves the highest earthly power,
Stronger far in heav'n above.
Holding planets in their orbits,
Giving to the sun it's rays,
Shining from the golden portals
In an hundred thousand ways.
Nothing is so blest as friendship,
When it's holy, good and true,
Heavens greatest boon we name 1t,
Granted but to chosen few.
Cheering words and friendly counsel
Lead from darkness into light,
Chasing gloom whose faintest shadow
Warns of coming darker night.
Give with all your heart in giving,
Kindness will all wounds redress.
Others may not praise your bounty,
One will surely see and bless.
Agnes G.. TraynOr.

A Virtue of Courage.

Many people are so afraid to die
that they have never begun to live.
But courage emancipates us and gives
us to ourselves, that we may give our
selves freely and without fear to Cod.
How sweet and clear and steady is the
life into which this virtue enters day
by day, not merely in those great
flashes of excitement which come in
the moments of crisis, but in the pres
ence of the hourly perils, the continual
conflicts.
Not to tremble at the shadows which
surround us, not to shrink from the
foes who threaten US, not to hesitate
and falter and stand despairing still
among the perplexities and trials Of
our life, but to move steadily onward
without fear, if only we can keep our
selves without reproach-surely that
is what the psalmist meant by good
courage and strength Of heart, and it
is q most comfortable, pleasant, peace
full and happy virtue.

Irish Surnames,

There has just been reisSued a most
interesting special report on Surnames
in Ireland, based on information ex-
tracted from indexes of the General
Register Office by Sir Robert E. Mathe-
son, L. L. D., barrister-at-law, regis
trar general for Ireland.
The consideration of the subject has
been as follows: F'irst-The principal
surnames in Ireland compared with
those in other portions of the United
Kingdom. Second-The derivation of
surnames in Ireland. Third-Surnames
in Ireland ethnologically considered.
Fourth-The local distribution of sur
names in Ireland.
Then follows a table showing one
hundred of the principal surnames in
Ireland, together with an estimated
population bearing each surname. We
append the first twenty names on the
list: Murphy, $4,000; Kelly, $4,000; Sui
Ivan, $4,000; Walsh, 41,700; Smith, 49,
700; O'Brien, SO, 400; Byrne, $4,000; Ryan,
$4,000; Conner, $1,000; ONeill, 29,1OO;
Reilly, $4,000; Doyle, $4,000; Mccarthy,
23,30O; Gallagher, q, 500; Doherty, 20, 500;
Kennedy, $4,000; Lynch, 1880; Murray,
1860; Quinn, 1920; Moore, 1900
In the province of Ulster in one coun-
ty only, namely, Armagh, is the name
Murphy in excess of the others. In
Antrim, Smith" appears first; in Ca
van, Reilly; in Donegal, Gallagher;
and in Down, Thompson The leading
name in Fermanagh is Mcguire" and
in Derry, "Doherty" stands at the head
of the list. The principal names in
Monaghan and Tyrone are Duffy and
Quinn" respectively.
With regard to names confined to spe-
cial localities, it is pointed out that the
names McGeady, McGettigan and Nc
Nelis have representatives in Donegal
only; Jess and Lightbody in Down;
McEldowney in Derry, and McAneny in
Tyrone.

fine paintings in the Escorial, although
100 of the choicest ones in the collec-

CHRISTMAS CAROL,

A lowly court wherein a Child is

The throne imperisl but manager
bare,
Saint Joseph and our Blessed Mother
share
A place about the crib; an offering
Of praise, THE Gloria" sweet angels
sing.
And humble gifts, made rich by low

OF myrrh, and shining gold, and in
cense rare,
The courtiers, faithful Magi, gladly
bring.
And so, on Christmas morn, Thou King
on High
We humbly lay our offerings at Thy
feet,
Oh! let them be enriched by love
again;
And even though Thy name we thrice
deny,
Our weary hearts bow in repentance
sweet
And to the angels Gloria add
Amen. Eileen Buddy.

Going Fishing.

Just a good excuse to wear
Trousers decked with patch and tear,
Old soft hat that fits your head
Like a pillow to a bed;
Faded coat and shoes that show
Holes and cracks from heel to toe,
But so easy to your feet
That your comfort is complete,
Going fishing.
Sitting by ripping stream,
Counting bubbles in a dream,
Thinking of your boyhood days
In a kind of memory haze,
Getting not a single bite,
But a healthy appetite,
Lazing till the stars come out
That's the greatest charm about
Going fishing.

most entirely from private subscrip-

conscientiously conducted, I believe.

The Vacant Chair.

What sad memories linger around the
old vacant chair Sitting in the middle
of the floor with a plaintive look about
its frayed and seemingly weary back,
it brings back tumultuous riot of sad
recollections that time can never efface.
Volumes of bitter anguish come to me
when / arrive home in time TO catch
the milkman swiping the loose furniture
around the place, and take off my
shoes to avoid publicity, and strike my
best toe against the rocker of the old
vacant chair. Then, forgetting for the
moment my unclad feet, kick the chair
on the other rocker That is when the
sadness and suffering that fingers
around the old chair comes out with an
extra edition and great chunks of
gloom settle over me like herd of ILL
natured flies.-Oregon Journal.
If a man doesn't love his work. he
had better get something else to do.
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work.
The trouble is in them. They lack
intelligence. If they knew enough 20
know good work, they would soon
learn to love it. The manual training
scheme has this in view-to surround
the job a man is doing with such in
telligence and taste as will make it
attractive to him.
THE man who is in love with his
job gets more contentment out of life
than any other" says Brander Mat
thews; and he gets a great part of his
contentment in doing his work right.
No man can love his work who shirks.
No man can be contented who is dis
honest about his work. This is shirk-
ing or doing it negligently. So these
things always go together = honest
work, contentment and love of the Job.

tial. The prosecuting attorney insist
ed upon death sentence for each muir
der, also imprisonment for four years,
with loss of all political rights. The
judge has the matter under considera-

magistrate or coroner, there would
be no trouble in staying judgment at
least long enough to determine how to
commence operations bn the prisoner.
If that prosecuting attorney could be
induced to take job in America, and
bring his law with him, about half of
the courts could safely go out of busi.
ness. And yet they partitioned Poland.

AIRSHIPS IN PRACTICAL WAR

ly. Such an ,airship of great lifting
power is now ON the way from New Or
leans to Bluefelds, in charge of two
expert American aviators, who have
taken service under Estrada. This
partially explains the delay in advanc-
ing on Managua. 1t is planned to first
drop explosives in the enemy's camp
and stampede the Madriz army, which
will be followed up by the revolution
lists. Then the airship will fly over
the capital city, which, it is assumed,
will instantly capitulate in the face of
such odds, affording bloodless victory
for the reyolutionists.
The reported cost of the expedition is
100000 gold.
