spiritual benefits. The spiritual char
acter of an effort such as this board
undertakes cannot be too often
brought to the minds of Catholic read
ers. In general, the work is spiritual
act, in the merits of which all who are
connected with it are sharers. There
are more than thousand priests al
ready pledged to say a Mass once a
year for the benefactors, of all classes.
They are members of the Priests
League. Besides these, there are pray
ers offered by religious in monasteries
and converts. Prayer and the Holy
Sacrifice are strong weapons to bring
about the conversion of the negro race.
The board wants the prayers of all
Catholics for the success of it's work;
it also wishes all Catholics to enjoy
the spiritual benefits of intimate asso-
citation with the boards missionary &C
tivity. Intimate association may be
had by joining the Army of One Hun

many dollars for the work.

MASSES FOR BENEFAcToRs OF
COLoRED MISSIONS.

1t has been said that money works
wonders, and it does in a material
sense. But the Catholic Church in it's
operations for the salvation of souls
puts it's faith in God and the prayers
of the priests, brothers and sisters,
and the devout laity. Money builds the
external structure, the chapel and the
school it does not sustain the inner
and the essential life. Nobody engaged
in mission work hopes to accomplish
anything without prayer. And so
prayer is one of the strong weapons of
the Catholic Board for Mission Work
Among the Colored People, which has
it's headquarters at No. 1 Madison ave-
nue., New York. His Eminence, the
Cardinal, the Most Reverend Arch
bishops and the Right Revernd Bishops
pray continually for the conversion of
the colored race. The Holy Father,
Plus X, joins them in this common
prayer.
Prayer is offered not only for the
success of the mission but for those

STOP THAT WASH.

(By R. c. Thompson, College of Az
 riculture.)
 If your land is rolling, the heavy rains this fall have started little washes that will soon become ravines or gullies. Now, this fall and winter while the farm. work is little slack. is the time to stop those washes. There is no better use for the old tack bottoms. spoiled hay, etc, than to stop the ravines and save the soil from washing away. You will find it to advantage to cut the sprouts and use the brush to stop ditches. A few days spent in stopping washes when they are just starting will do as much good in preserving the soil fer. tility as hundreds of dollars spent for labor and fertilizers after the waste has been allowed to go on for year or two or more.

claims that a flock in proper hands
should double in a year and that the
wool clip should pay all expenses, so
that there would be tidy dividend to
add to the revenues derived from the
cultivated acres.
It IS the contention of the stock men
that this country can never be good for
anything else, and the equally insistent
claim of the other side that it can be
more profitable ept up and titled than

This plan enables both ideas to be
worked out together and the people can
be trusted to cleave TO that which is

BILL was up In the United states
"A senate the other day to consider
= the acceptance of a pasteurizing
milk plant, the gift OF Mr.. Nathan
Straus to the city of Washington
The gift could only be accepted by
unanimous consent Every member Of
the senate favored the matter, save
senator Bailey of Texas, alone
When Bailey is wrong he is the
wrongest man I ever saw. and i think
that when he voted against the accept
ance of this gift Of the pasteur:zing
milk depot, Bailey OF Texas voted
against the babies.
Bailey's argument is that he does not
want TO pauperize the people through
Daternalism- In the meantime many
babies die, and broken hearted mothers
watch away the dark hours Of the
night by palltd forms
Bailey interposes a sentiment when
human lives are at stake If man
falls off the dock we do not discuss
the tariff on lumber before throwfns
the drowning man a plank.
Bailey does not take issue with the
facts presented by Mr.. Straus as to
the proper feeding Of infants; he only
objects to the government taking any
interest in bottle babies. People
should feed their, own babies, he says,
for babies are personal matter
This is all right, TOO. but the people
are the government at the last L is

Here is a great opportunity to do

It is a fact that Nathan Straus has
cut down infant mortality during the

in all neighborhoods where he has es-
tab1ished milk depots-
Brer Bailey seemingly fears that
Brer Berger is behind this scheme. For
the city of Washington TO lake over
milk plant for the benefit of the babies
would be setting an, EXAMPLE for the
United States to do like thing in va
rious other ways. Ohio, also, aha!
There is one point in this matter that
should be borne in mind and that Is
that the city OF Washington has nc
municipal government but is under the
control of q congressional committee.
One of the provinces of government
is to teach the people. And the objec-
ton which senator Bailey opposes con-
corning city supplying milk to it's
citizens does not apply to the work o;
the government in the city of Wash

Moreover. neither men nor women

Amiability, eheerfulness and sanity
are the three cardinal virtues in wives,
and before any woman induced me to
stand for her board bill for life she
would have to show that this triple

It is precisely because widows have

find out that a commonplace business
man isn't an impassioned Romeo, and
that he takes more real heart interest

The widow has passed through this
phase of development, and reached the
common sense plateau of matrimony
in which she doesn't worry herself, or
the man. by keeping her fingers on the
pulse of his affections to see if his love
is growing cold, and where she can
