Just say to yourself that you are made

LYING.

Lying in elders is most humliating
and contemplate and vicious practice.
It shows coward. sneak, traitor,
a thief. A liar is despised, is Stunned,
is not wanted even among criminals.
He is of no use in any position, be-
cause his word is unreliable. His en-
ploy~fs are in fear as long as he il
with them, and he is soon let go. A
liar is his own greatest enemy-he
blocks his own way to happiness and
success. Avoid all lies, even jocose.
No matter what you do. no matter how
guilty, confess and say, Father, moth
er, teacher, cannot, I will not tell a
lie."
A truthful boy or girl, man or
woman, is hero. They are ever re-
spected, honored, trusted. Their word
is as good as an oath, as a bond.
Truthfulness is inestimable, more val
liable than gold, more glittering than q
diamond, stronger than adamant.

GOOD MANNERS.

Good manners are within the reach
of all, and good manners mean a gen.
tleman. Parents should impress upon
the minds of their children the neces-
sity of being always nice An ex-
change puts it this way:
The chivalry of our medieval fore
fathers was the doing of great deeds
for others. Nowadays there is no
need of the strengthening deeds of
long ago; little things done for another
count as much. Good manners are Chi
valry for they come from the heart
and are the same everywhere. They
are the distinctive marks of a true
gentleman. Cardinal Newman de-
scribes gentleman as zone who never
inflicts pain" which is another way of
quoting our Saviour's words: do I'M
to others as you would wish them to
do unto you" A true gentleman then
possesses a gentle heart, that prompts
to treat all the same.
True gentlemen are not rare. We
fall in with them frequently. Their
CHEEKY good morning" lightens many
of our gloomy days. Their smile or
the word or two dropped by them in
passing is like balm to the soul. Their
hearts are so trained that they can, If
there is need, be sympathetic, encour'
aging, forgetful of injuries, magnani-
nous. Why, the very comforting of a
sought-for favor gives them pleasure
It seems to be a wise dispensation of
Providence that there are such choice
souls to be sunbeams of happiness to
their fellow-men. But no one can say
he us above or below good manners
All that is required is certain for
getfulness of self.

PATRON SAINTS.

A splendid way for teachers to in
terest children in the lives of saints Is
to devote a few minutes now and then
to class talks on the saints after whom
the children are named. Not even the
most Hastily bound and attractively
written lives will appeal to some chill
dren, but every boy and girl will listen
intently to the life story of his Or her
patron.
Rather undue stress has been laid in
the public schools upon mythology and
folklore. But here we have magni-
ficent storehouse of sacred folklore
in the lives and legends of the holy
men and women who were one with
us in faith and spiritual kinship. They
are our ancestors in the faith, and
ancestors who brought no stain to
the glorious escutcheon of the Church.
Many of them have been the inspira-
ton of art; all of them can be to our
children an inspiration to holiness.

so sound and strong. He could not
study and keep up with his class. He
became untrustworthy and nearly
everybody lost respect for him.
He was afraid the other boys would
laugh at him, so he said to them,

are not at all in the way and I am
sure you would look better and be

DOING THE HARDEST THING
FIRST.

! know a very successful man who
early in life resolved that, no matter
how hard anything might be, or how
seemingly impossible for him to do, he
would do it if the doing would prove
of value to him. He made this the
test, and would never allow his moods
or feelings to stand in the way of his
judgment He forced himself into a
habit of promptly doing everything, no
matter how disagreeable, if it would
further his advancement.
People who consult their moods,
their preferences or their ease never
make a great success in life. It is
the man who gets a firm grip on him.
self and forces himself to do the thing
that will ultimately be best for him,
who succeeds. The man who goes
through life picking out the flowers
and avoiding the thorns in his occu-
patton, always doing the easy thing
first and delaying or putting Off alto
gether, if possible, the hard thing, does
not develop the strength that would
enable him to do hard things when
necessity forces them upon him.
1t is pitiable to see young men re-
manning far below the place where
their ability ought to have carried
them, just because they dislike to dc
disagreeable things until compelled to
The best way always is to tackle the

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
THE FOX WITHOUT A TAIL.

A fox was once caught by the tail
in trap. He knew he would be killed
if the hunters found him. So he
managed to get away, leaving his tail
in the trap.
He felt very much ashamed to be
without a tail, and tried to keep from
meeting any of his friends. He was
afraid they would laugh at him.
After while he called his friends
together and talked to them about it.
"You really can't think" said he,
what nice time I have without a
tail. Tails are so much in the way.
can get about much more easily since
lost mine.
Il am sure you would all look a
great deal better and be much happier,
If you would have your tails cut of. !"
IF you think So" said an old fox,
why didn't you have your tail cut off
before? think you would be very glad
to get it back again If you could. You
want US to have our tails cut of only
that we may look as bad as you."
Once there was boy in - (quote
some known case or some clipping IL
such is available) who learned to
smoke. He began by using cigarets
which are about half as big as your
little finger.
Very soon this boy learned to smoke
a number of cigarets each day and
to draw the smoke into his lungs.
This made him weak and he became a
slave to cigarets. His appetite grew
poor. He grew nervous and could not
sleep so well as he used to. Exercise
made his heart beat so fast that he
could not enjoy the ball and other
brisk games. He had to look on while
the others played. He did not grow SO
fast as the other boys and was not
