Tho Active Mind.

The active mind Is never lonely: 1t
is self -suf1lcient. The student and the
thinker revel in solitude However,
very few of us want solitude all the
time. WE all need good friends, tho
ties Of family life, and give and catch
conversations of the neighbor. But it
is when we are quite alone that we
turn matters over in our own minds,
when we get a big broad view of life,
when we lay plans. direct our work,
dwell upon the tenderness of those we
love and those who love us. A few
moments Of profitable restful solitude,
fifteen minutes with n good book, flf-
teen minutes with good musc-these
are moments spent in self-culture and
education. When you grow so inter-
esting that you like to be by yourself
you will be so interesting that every
body will want you to be with them.

Tho First Great Bank,

The first great bank in the world
was the Bank rof. .Xenice. established in
1857 when" the queen city yof the Adri-
attic was the headaef the commerce Of
the western world. At that time the
great current of the trade between
Europe and Asia passed through the
Persian gulf and the Red sea to Alex
andria, Egypt, and was carried in
ships across the Mediterranean sea
and through the Adriatic to Venice,
where it was distributed to various
parts of Europe. Venice was a sort
of autocratic republic, founded and
supported by it's merchants, who were
famed throughout the world for their
wealth and reliability. They founded
their bank, which was guaranteed by
the government and was held in high
credit in all the great cities on the
routes of trade. The word "bank" was
derived from the italian word "banco,''
a bench or counter over which the
business was transacted.

A Strange Coincidence.

An extraordinary coincidence took
place on the occasion Of the late Mr.
James O'Connor's election for West
Wicklow, says the Irish American.
The reverend gentleman who proposed
Mr. OConnor said that this was in one
respect the most remarkable contest
Of the general election. The Tory cam
didate, Colonel Saunders, was tho
grandson of the man who ordered the
shooting Of the thirty-six martyrs of
Dunlavin Green in 1898. Mr.. O'Con-
nor the National candidate, was the
grandson Of Kearney, one of the men
who was shot. 1.-THE two grandsons
are before you today" continued the
reverend gentleman, land I venture to
prophesy that when the poll Is de-
clared the majority by which James
O'Connor will win will be the sacred
number 1885," The prophecy was full
filled-179s was the exact figure of the
majority.

Dublin Of Today.

Dublin is one in list of "decaying
cities" given in an article that appears
in a trade contemporary, says a writ
err in the Irish Independent of that
city. AS some thriving English CEN
ters are impartially included also, we
need feel no alarm. Comparatively
speaking, Dublin has certainly lost
something. 1t is no longer "the sec
ond city in the empire" as Lecky
states it was in the eighteenth con-
tury. The Liffey, however, was poorly
bridged then; it was crossed in only
four places. But the guays, now dilap-
idated, had mighty reputation for
width and prosperity. Stephens Green
was the largest square in Europe. The
House of Parliament was new, and was
held to eclipse Westminster complete
ly. Yet on the whole the city was
poor in architecture. AS for church
buildings, it had only the two historic
cathedrals; and beauty could not be
called their strong point. The nine
teenth century enriched the town with
a grand army Of ecclesiastical stone
Although it has not kept pace with
the wealth and growth Of other cities
Dublin probably was never so fair to
the eye as at present.

defeat. His reason was that if the
Liberals really meant business in de-
priving the Lords of their veto they
should cling to the weapon of finance.
BY Withholding supplies until the Lords
We're brought to reason they would
force an issue rapidly and they would
have the country sternly backing them
up in their fight.
Asquith appeared to give way. He
promised to deal with the veto first.
But it appears that this promise was
illusory. The resolutions by which he
will affirm the principle will not, even
If passed by the Lords, have the force

the meantime he will endeavor to pass
the budget.
The whole affair is disheartening.

Toast is of Ancient Origin.

. The origin of health drinking is lost
in the dimness Of ancient years, but
it was a general habit with the Ro-
mans, the Greeks and the Assyrians
of earliest history, says a writer in
the Illustrated Sunday Magazine. At
Athens a very strict code of health
drinking etiquette was drawn up, and
was known as "Philothesis." The form
of the Greek toast was simply, II sa-
lutte you, be happy" and post
prandial oratory was regarded as de-
cidedly out of place. The Romans
thought the exclamation "Propino!"-
II drink your health"-quite sufficient
The word *toast' dates back ito
medieval times when the loving cup
was regarded as an Indispensable fea-
ture of every feast The cup would
be Allied to the brm with wine or mead
and a small piece of toasted bread
fioated on the liquid. The host would
then touch the cup to his lips and pass
it to his guest of honor seated on HE
right, who would drink and pass the
cup to his neighbor, and so on until
the cup had completed the circuit OF
the table, when the host would drink
what remained Of the wine and swal-
low the piece of toast.
