GILBERT'S PET LEMURS.
One Perched on His Master S Shoulders
While the Latter Dressed.

Sir w. s, Gilbert of comic opera fame
had many pets at his English country
place, but he was perhaps more fond of
his ringtaied lemurs than of the other
members of his household menagerie.
They are handsome animals, with thicl;
gray coats, which they clean with their
tongues, as cats do The ewes are brown,
the muzzle black, and the tail succession
OF black and white rings. They use
the tails, which are very heavy. as rudders
IN jumping. posing them with great care
before taking any long leaps.
The first one Sir William had was Job,
bought by chance with number Of mon,
keys, and put at first to live with them
IN the summer monkey house. Job did
not seem. to appreciate very highly the
society of the monkeys, so Sir William
had him brought into the library and
chained by the fireplace. hoping that he
would like that better. but he was very
nervous and frightened at first. Swapping

Aches and Pains
Banished
Gen. T. S. Peck gives the Credit to
Mysterious Pain Ease.
Another well-known man tells
of his experience with this mar
velous remedy:

81 have used Mysterious Pain Ease long time
for myself and the members OF my family, ana
believe it to be uneXceed for relieving pain, and
especially for rheumatism, sprains and bruises.
ut has been pleasure for me always to recon-
mend it most highly to my friends, who, in every
case have not forgotten to thank me for so doing,
and to speak in the loudest praise OF its wonder
full virtues.
Try Mysterious Pain Ease for
cold in chest or head, for bron-
chitis, for headache, and for any
pain or ache in any part of the
body. One trial will make you
a booster for Mysterious Pain
Ease. You'll need it when you
least expect, so keep a bottle on
hand.
Your druggist sells it in rs and
so cent sizes; or we'll send by
mail if you wish.

HOME LIFE
Bishop Says 1t Has Lost Traditional
Sweetness.

In his Lenten pastoral Bishop Shan.
ahan of Harrisburg, Pa, deplores the
dearth of real home life in America
"Now," he said, young people do not
care much for home. For many it has
lost all the traditional sweetness that
the word implies The affections that
made home ties and associations hap
py have been transferred to other
scenes and surroundings and judging
by the results, the change seems to
be bad one. Fathers and mothers
have not only lost control of their
children, but the children themselves
have lost that happy and gracious in
fiuence which Christian home life
should ever exercise in the building
up and development of true character.
evil associations have been formed,
undesirable marriages entered into,
troubles, sorrows, and scandals bred
abroad, are brought home to sadden
the hearts of aged parents whose clos
ing days in life are thus made any
thing but happy and consoling. Hence
it is that the Church appeals with all
the tenderness of her motherly heart
to the parents and children of today
to respect the sacredness of home
life, cling to it's best Catholic tradi-
lions and make what the ancient
home at Nazareth was, poor and hum
