IN SWITZERLAND.

Social Work in Switzerland" is the
subject of an interesting paper con-
tributed TO the Catholic World by Vir-
ginia NJ. Crawford. This summarizes
her conclusions:
In Switzerland, after thirty years
of active. If intermittent, agitation,
based largely on the teachings of the
Leonine Encyclopedia, much has been
accomplished in labor agitation, in
housing. in education, in the develop
ment Of the civic sense. In Switzer-
land we find no extremes, either of
poverty or of wealth, with their
bIighting evils-no restitution on the
one hand, no enervating luxury on the
other Everywhere there is to be
found a widespread observance of
Sunday rest and almost complete re
Iigious liberation. Hence at st. Gall,
although in point of fact the popula-
ton is only three-fifths Catholic, the
social student can watch the church
at work under normal and healthy
conditions in an environment favor
able to spiritual growth. And the
conviction is forced upon him that in
the world of today only democracy
wisely understood, furnishes such a

SWuFTS JOKE.

Swift, in his journeys on foot from
Dublin to London, was accustomed to
stop for refreshments or rest at the
neat little ale houses at the roads side.
One Of these, between Dunchurch and
Daventry, was formerly distinguished
by the sign of the "Three Crosses" in
reference to the three intersecting
ways which fixed the-side of the house

WARNING TO LADIES.

A startling revelation is made in a
French consular report, which is alb
solute1y rude in bluntness. 1t states
that 100000 pounds of human hair
are annually exported from China to
Europe and America, to be made up
into wigs, false fronts and the like.
This surely is giving the ladies of
fashion away in manner amazing for
a French publication Another state
ment seems even worse. for the Stats
tician has taken up the matter. and
he declared that terrible and discon-
certing air Of conviction which is af-
fected by all his tribe that out of
every hundred ladies of fashion in
Europe who are thirty years old or
over. only per cent do not use any
false hair, and another per cent
are absolutely bald. One wonders
where this Paul Pry got his facts and

MOTHER.

Mother seems to me to be the sweet
est word ever spoken. Poets have
given their best efforts to the sweet
ening of the name. But it needs no
sweetening. It is the dearest and best
of words. Many of us think so, but
we do not act so. We call mother
Ma" NAV" or some such deriva-
tive Of that word We think that by
doing this we apply endearment to the
name, as the dimunitive is always a
term of endearment But it is not
so in this case. Mother cannot be
improved upon. So let it be mother
from henceforth and forever-Our

OLDEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD.

1t is probable that there is not an
older woman in the world than Frau
Dutkiewicz of Posen, Germany, who
lately celebrated her 125th birthday
She lacks but two years of the extraor-
binary age attained by Sarah, the wife
of Abraham. Unlike Sarah of Old

Not long ago while Offering the
mass for his mother, on her birthday,
her son, priest, fell dead at the altar
of heart disease. He was SO years of
age. Frau Dutl1iewicz was married
over ninety years ago, and has been
a widow for fifty-five years. She re-

TRAINING THE NERVOUS CHILD.

This bit of good advice on taking
care of nervous children is found in
he last number of the Healthy
Home. Iunexible regulations are es-
.arfial in the training Of the nervous
rhfId. because it is only by them thai
i habit can be gradually formed
which shall serve as a barrier to shell
ter the child from its inheritance.
Iron rules should prevail as to regu-
Iaritv of meals and bedtime. Dis
n1ays of temper or of oversensitive-
ness or of morbid emotionality
should be met with firmness in the
one case and kindly Indifference in
the other. They do not call for nag
ging or admiration or panic on the
mart of the elders.
There may be a good deal of COM
mon sense in the idea that strict
rules are kinder than lax ones when
nervous. high strung children are to
be dealt with. When once the fact is
learned that a regulation must be adj
heued to a child accepts it as a mat
ter of course, anOd innumerable little
struggles, as weaTying to the child as
to the parent are avoided.

AVOIDED CONTEMPT OF COURT.

A man who had never been in court
before in his life, was recently called
as a witness in a court in southern In
diana On being sworn he took q
position with his back to the jury and
began telling his story to the judge,
who courteously said Address your
remarks to the jury, sir"
The witness paused for a moment
but not compromising what was said
to him. remained in the same position.
The judge was then more explicit
and said, Speak to the jury, sir, the
men behind you on the benches"
The witness turned around, bowed
awkwardly and said. Good morning,
gentlemen. National Monthly.

Upon the floors are seen.

CHILD MARRIAGES IN INDIA.

We clip the following from the New
York Sun:
The custom of child marriages in
India, although viewed with strong
disapproval by the British authorities
and not encouraged by enlightened
Hindus themselves. proves to be too
deeprooted to be killed in one gener-
alton by mere western disapproval. A
British blue book just issued contains
some striking statistics on this much
discussed Indian problem.
Out of q total population of nearly
300, 100000 there are nearly 25,000.-
coo married under the age of 20. OF
these more than 100000 are under the
age of 5. The following figures are

..BLUE MONDAY MUSINGS"

Appropriately enough. the follow
ing paragraphs found place in the
Blue Monday Musings contributed
to the Living Church" Up. Ed by
'Presbyter Ignotus:"
Here lies a letter which l should
like to publish in full, if l were al
lowed; but, that being forbidden by
the writer, [ must at least summarize
it. Some eastern church people went
to western city to consult a famous
surgeon about a matter of life and
death. There were some hours OF
necessary waiting before the inter-
view; where to spend them? In
church, at prayer, of course. "A little
brick structure in the midst of a neg
lected grass plot, with no flower or
shrub about it to show that anybody
loved it, but-the church. 1t was
locked; every door closed. The Ro
lnan church near by was wide open,
worshippers freely entering and leav-
ing; what pain and shame for those
who found themselves excluded from
the Fathers House because of lazy
sexton, a careless and Indifferent rec
tor or an iTreligious vestry? When
the doctors verdict was given-a
hopeful one-I tried the locked doors
once more. and then l went to the
church whose doors were Openi'
A clergyman who has recently re-
turned from visit to an eastern dio-
cese relates the following incident,
which seems rather apropos of recent
discussions:
He entered church noted rather
for its wealthy and fashionable con-
gregation than for its churchmanship.
The congregation was not devoid OF
aesthetic feeling, however, and every
thing within was rich and in good
taste. AS he stood admiring the in
terror he was amazed and delighted
to see a particularly handsome sane
tuary lamp burning before the altar
He could scarcely believe his eyes!
A deaconess CHANGED to be passing
through the church just then, and he
sought further information from her.

reserve the Blessed Sacrament here ?"
"Oh, no." she replied, apparently
rather shocked at the supposition,
