The Stratford, Ont, Daily Herald
speaks of his meeting in that city as
follows:
4 Beginning with the maxim that "an
honest man is the noblest work Of
God" the speaker disabused his audi
ence of the commonly accepted force
of the word, honest" extending iti
bounds to include honesty not only IL
financial matters, but honest obliga
lions to our fellow men, to our fami
lies and to God. Every point made b.
, the speaker was illustrated by actua
examples and the whole address
teemed with striking logic and cpl
gram, pathos and humor
Among the many obligations, de
scribed in a most original way, which
Mr.. Drum dealt with We're:
I'VE owe every man a pull up, no
shove down.
Men owe their wives courtesy, con
sideration, kind words and generous
treatment.
Fathers should appreciate the laten
possibilities of their boys and trea
them accordingly
Men owe their families clean lives
personal impurity is the greatest ev4
in the world.
IntempeTance brings triple chat
of appetite, habit and evil association
Men owe it to their families, thei
friends and citizens in general, to TAX
correct position on religious que
tons.

HUNTING THE WALRTS.

In his frail Skinboat it is difficult
and dangerous task for the Eskimo to
go out to sea forty to sixty miles and
intercept the Walrus as he passes on
his migration into the Arctic.
One carcass will fill his boat, for it
weighs from 1000 to 5000 pounds.
He hunts the walrus when they are
lying asleep on the ice foes in herds
from ten to several hundred. Death
must be instantaneously else with a
few rolls or the peculiar numbering,
humping movement (seen of the seal
when ashore), he makes the few feet
to the water and then is lost, as he
has not sufficient blubber and air to
float. He has much natural curiosity,
and if not scared by shots will come
up close to your boat or the ice foe
on which you are sitting. squirting,
snorting and rolling his eyes; with his
cleaning tusks and bristled snout he
has an uncanny, goblin, mOnster-like
appearance. A herd of fifty or sixty
of them will come up en- masse, raise
high out of the water to stare at you,
then snort, squirt and disappear again,
only to come up on the same spot and
repeat the maneuVer indefinitely.
Taking advantage of this the Eskimos
hide behind ice hummocks and throw
a harpoon into one, then snub the
tough rawhile line around an ice
cake. He must perforce come UP to
blow, and he is then killed with the
rife. The thick skin and the mass of
bIubber and meat beneath render him
almost inYulnerable.-Pac Month

asTRONG MEM

1t is often said nowadays that iI
great crises and moral revolutions we
need Gne strong man to decide; but il
seems to me that is exactly when we
do not need him. We do not need a
revolution is a time when all men are
great Where despotism really is sue
cessful is in very small matters
Every one must have noticed how eS-
sential u despot is to arranging the
things in which every one is doubtful
because every one is indifferent-the
boats in water picnic or the seats at
a dinner party. Here the man who
knows his own mind is really wanted,
for no one else ever thinks his own
mind worth knowing. No one knows
where to go to precisely, because no
one cares where he goes. 1t is for
trivialties that the great tyrant is
meant.
But when the depths are stirred in a
society and all mems souls grow taller
in transfiguring anger or desire,
then l am by no means certain that
the great man has been a benefit even
when he has appeared. 1 am sure that
Cromwell and Napoleon managed the
mere pixies and bayonets, boots and
better than most other peo-
pie could have managed them. But 1
am by no means sure that Napoleon
gave a better turn to the whole French
revolution. L am by no means so
sure that Cromwell has really i'm
proved the religion of England.-G. K.

FIXING MACHINES.

Flying machines of today are of
two types-dirigible balloons and
aeroplanes-both of them yet in the
embryo stage. In the matter of dirig-
ibles Germany is an easy first, France
is second and the rest of the world is
nowhere beyond possibilities of what
Italy may produce. In heavier than
air machines France is the unchal-
lenged first. America, with equal ease,
occupies the second place. Germany
on account of a single successful
type-may perhaps call herself third
for the moment, but all other nations
except the first two at present con-
stitute "the field" The test of a fly
ing machine is the extent to which it
is copied by others than it's producer
To date, no one has for moment
dreamed of copying any aeroplane
that England has produced, though
there are many copies of leading
French types.-Argonaut

SHAFTS TO CHAAPLAIN.

Two memorials to Samuel de Cham
plain, the explorer, the tercentenary
of whose discovery of the lake that
bears his name was celebrated last
summer, will be erected in New York
state, the commissions appointed by
the Vermont and New York legisla-
lures to consider the matter having SC
decided at a recent meeting.
The memorial to be erected al
Crown Point will be the joint offering
of both states. The Vermont commits
sion, after seeking to use the states
appropriation of $4,000 for MEM
orial in Vermont, has decided to make
the Crown Point structure joint one.
New York will pay $500 toward the
building of this memorial and $4,000
for the erection of one at Bluff Point.
The Crown Point memorial shaft
will cost about $500, and will be sur
mounted by a beacon light to replace
the present lighthouse now maintained
by the government. Crown Point is a
beautiful peninsula jutting out into the
lake, and is included in the tract of
land recently accepted by Governor
Hughes for "a state park Fort AM
herst and Fort Frederick, which cost
the British government $40, ,000,0 900 to
construct over 200 years ago, and
other points of historic interest are
within the boundaries of the new park.
The Notifications which are in a fair
state Of preservation, will be restored
on the completion of the monument.

READ THEIR MINDS AWAY.

How much more effective the bes
stories would be if the tellers would
only leave the application to the hear
ers! This thought must have occurred
to the minds of many in reading the
subjoined extract from a Protestant
book entitled Might Scenes of the
Bible"
1t is said that there is a bust of Our
Lord in a Roman Catholic chapel on
the continent, before which a stool is
placed, that the beholder may kneel
and look. To the one who is stand
ing up, the bust has no beauty. 1t is
essential to kneeI in order to see the
glory and beauty of the countenance.
So, as long as we stand in self-satis-
faction, we see no beauty in Christ
but the moment there is humbling of
soul before God on account of sin,
then we behold in Christ world of
excellence we did not see before.
One editor who quoted this passage
felt obliged to give it a caption
Must Kneel to See the Glory" No
wonder a literary critic should be
moved to remark that moderns are in
grave danger of "reading thir minds
away. Ave Maria.

biology. Of science and faith in Men
dels case there can be no doubt.
though there is also no doubt of the
depth of his knowledge of biological
principle. After he had spent some
ten years in the study of the plants in
his monastery garden and elucidated
problems that were to remain utterly
obscure for full generation after his
time because his work did not receive
the attention it deserved, he was elect
ed abbot of the monastery and spent
the last fifteen years of his life in this
position. His election was mainly due
to the conviction of his brethren that
he was a man of deep piety as well as
profound learning, and he died almost
in the odor of sanctity.
There are, however, many other
Catholic churchmen who have reached
noteworthy distinction in nineteenth
century biological science. One Of the
best known of these is still alive-the
Jesuit Father Wasmann. who is looked
upon as one of the greatest living en-
tomologists, to whom we owe several
articles on ants and their parasites,
and who has described some 900 new
species of insects, mainly ants and
creatures that have relations to them.
A number of the Catholic missionaries
have attained distinguished names for
their discoveries in foreign countries
and for their collections in zoology
and botany. The most distinguished
of these is Father Armand. whose
studies in zoology and botany in China
made him famous throughout the
world. He enriched the Jardin des
Plantes in Paris so as to make it
mecca for students from all over the
world who wanted to know something
about Chinese zoology and botany.
Scarcely less distinguished was the
Jesuit missionary Father Peter Heude,
who died in Shanghai in 1902. His
articles on the conchology Of China
and his studies in the zoology Of the
Philippines, Batavia, the Celebes, the
Moluccas and Japan attracted atten-

THE HUMAN TONGUE.

'The boneless tongue, SO small and
weak,
Can crush and KILL" declared the
Greek.
"The tongue destroys greater
horde,'
The Turks asserts, than does the
sword
The Persian proverb wisely saith,
"a lengthy tongue-an early death"
Or sometimes takes this form instead:
Don't let your tongue cut off your
head"
"The tongue can speak a word whose
speed"
Says the Chinese, "outstrips the
steed."
While Arab sages this impart:
THE tongues great storehouse is the
heart"
From Hebrew wit the maxim sprung:
Tho feet should slip, ne'er let the
tongue
The sacred writer crowns the wholei
who keeps his tongue doth keep his
soul"

GREAT CATHOLIC BIOLOGISTS.

Perhaps the most interesting feature
of the recent history of biology in
what concerns the attitude of sceience
to faih is to be found in the fact that
number of Catholic clergymen have
been among the most distinguished
workers and most successful inyestiga-
tors in this department of science
Only in the last ten years have we
came to realize it, but it is universally
conceded that the greatest worker in
the biological sciences during the lat
ter half of the nineteenth century was
the Abbot of an Augustinian monastry
at Brunn in Moravia. Our biological
journals and now filled with discus
sions of Mendel's works and MendePs
laws. Our biological Investigators are
mainly engaged in confirming and ex-
tending his observations on animals
and plants; our biologists are mainly
occupied with studying out the COM
plete significance of his discoveries
and we have entered on the period of
Mendelism to succeed Darwinism il

NERVE STRAIN IN AVIATION.

Mr.. Grahame-White the foremost
English bird man, in an interview
thus describes the nerve strain of fly
ing: 1T is the tension of fearing that
something unexpected may happen
that the engine may fail, that a stay
may break, that a controlling wire
may snap. Any one of these things
may, one knows quite well, bring
about fearful fall. The rush of air
and the fact that one Is high above
the ground have very little to do with
the ordeal
