\ TIP ON OATS.

According to the Saturday Evening
Post, a man who had country place
on Long Island came to New York
one morning to do little specializing
He was a great believer in tips.
On the ferryboat it came to him
that he had had somehow a tip on
oats He couldn't remember just what
it was, but somebody had told him to
buy oats. SO when he reached his
brokers' office he looked into oats a
bit and bought some. Oats were active.
He pyramided skillfully and by the
close of the market was $1,000 ahead.
OF course such luck as that had to
be celebrated and it was. AS the cele-
bration went on the oats buyer told
the story several times and each time
took an Importance in the recital as
an oats buyer until he finally became
the oats king. He reached his rail
road station somewhat late and found
the stableman waiting for him with
a trap.
by the way" said the stableman,
did YOU remember to order that five
bushels of oats 1 asked you to buy this
morning"

THE MAN HE WAS.

An eminent man had passed away,
and the whole community seemed
moved with grief. The bar of the
neighboring city where he had been a
Judge passed resolutions of respect:
the church to which he had belonged
expressed its sorrow in fitting terms
every one was saying that a good man.,
a Christian gentleman, had gone, In
groups the neighbors stood outside
while the hearse waited and recalled
incidents in his useful life. Among
them young labOring man of intelli-
gence and character stood. and this
was the incident which he related:
when I first came to town four
years ago. | got job on an ice wagon.
1t was heavy work, and L was not so
strong as now, but 1 got on pretty
well. One morning 1 came to deliver
ice at the judges house. just as he
came out at the front door and start
ed for his train. He hurried past me
with a nod. for while he did not know
me, he was always courteous to every
one. I was carrying hundred and
fifty pounds of ice. and it was a pref
ty heavy load. AS he passed me he
noticed it and turned.
See here. young man., said he, /
can't allow this. Set that down.
81 set it down. and he took hold of
the other handle of the tongs and
helped me carry it into the kitchen.
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1910-11-26

Now. said he, don't undertake such
a load again
He had missed his train, and he
went by the company's Office and told
them, so / learned. that the work was
too heavy for a boy His protest re-
suited in the putting of another man
on each wagon that distributed ice in
large cakes. 1 always thought it
showed the kind of man he was"
The incident seemed trivial. per-
haps. compared with others that were
related some of which concerned
large enterprises and conspicuous SER
vices. but there was som ething about
this little incident that caused all to
remember it. Il am sure said one
man. but that incident best displays
his character. To help another with
a burden that was too heavy. to go
out of his way to seek another's good.
to miss a train that he might right a
wrong so common and respectable
that no one else thought of it, or
thought of it only as something that
could not be helped, and to do it all
nostentatiously. courteously and sue
cessfully-what better proof could be
desired that he was a true Christian
gentleman youths Companion.

SINCE CARDINAL NEWMAN'S
DEATH

Cardinal Newman was forU-1iVe-
the age of perfect mental equipose
and wisdom-when after the struggle
and soul-searching of about twelve
years. he was received into the Cath
Ollie church. Had he come i'll much
earlier, his action would have been
ascribed to immature enthusiasm; if
much later, to the weakening of his
faculties.
Besides the incalculable moral and
religious influence which John Henry
Newman exerted and still cxerts. his
purely intellectual influence is inn
mense. He holds his place as he held
it through most of the nineteenth cen
fury as the great master of English
prose.
One of his books, The Present
Position of Catholics in England, -
was of singular interest TO American
Catholics, as fitting their needs al
most as we'll as the needs of those
for whom it was written. But much
has happened in his native England,
no tsimply since the writing of the
book. but within the two decades fol-
lowing his death. The Catholics of
England. helped it must be admitted
by the Catholics of Ireland, have
grown greatly in strength. courage
and enthusiasm. The features of the
accession oath. most offensive to
Catholics. because of their blasphem-
Gus and insulting nature. have been
removed. Jesuits and Benedictines
have established colleges at New
mans always beloved oxford. and
even a Catholic college for women
now exists at this famous old founda-
ton of England's most Catholic days
Then English Catholics, helped
again by able Irish craftsmanship at
Westminster have maintained their
schools The great cathedral of West
minister. is finished, consecrated and
in daily use. Father Robert Hugh
Benson, convert, like the famous
English cardinal and Gilbert K
ChestertOn, who. like Mallock, still
continues the part of the church bell
ringing others in, without entering
himself-are two of the most impor-
tant contemporary names associated
with the work most dear to New
man.-Cleveland Universe

means of obtaining force enough to
expel the dynasty and thus assume the
reins of power.
1t was shown that the idea of the
Portuguese being capable of organic
ing and sustaining a republic in the
true sense was to be dismissed as
chimerical and that time would soon
work out the proof of the analysis of
affairs given in explanation of the con-
dition of things in that country
But the revelation which might be
expected to be Withheld for a con-
siderable time is already made and

tehind him are men who are practi

II appears the TeyolutiOnists are
sending large sums of money away into
other countries to be laid UP against
the day Of their own expulsion. They
perceive that their cruelty. arrogance
and injustice are bound to raise up
enemies and drive them from power
and the more quickly they can feather
their nests the better they like il.
They have arrested Franco. charged

or revolution will soon come to pass

HER REVENGE.

A little girl had been so very
naughty that her mother found it
necessary to shut her up in a dark
closet-in that family the direst pun
ishment for the worst offense. For
fifteen minutes the door had been
locked without a sound coming
from behind it-not whimper, not
a sniffle At last the stern but anx-
ious parent unlocked the closet door
and peered into the darkness. She
could see nothing.
What are you doing in there?" she
cried.
And then a little voiced piped from
the blackness:

thpit on your new hat, and I'm wait
ing for more thpit to come to thpit on

many milestones he has passed. There
is at least one father who understood
this problem in time and who gave
his daughter a fair chance in life by
never letting her know how old she
was He realized at her' birth that a
time would come when she would not
want to tell her age. and he spared
her the humiliation of having to pre-
