To Advertise State ny Booklet.

st. Paul, July 90, 1911.-The North
erin Pacific railway has just issued a
new booklet under the title of What
Minnesota Wants to Tell You" 1t
consists of 40 pages and cover, and
carries illustrations of the various
products. Chapters on Minnesota cit
les, her industries. resources, climate
university, schools and summer re-
Sorts are all covered with terse con-
vincing text, and there is special
chapter about the State Fair, another
one about the public lands in the
state, and still another in regard to
homestead lands. Fifty thousand COP
les of the booklet will be distributed
this fall at the various land exposi-
tons from the Northern Pacific's Min
nesota Exhibit Car and through the
numerous agencies of the company.
The booklet has been made a con-
venient pocket size, since experience
has proven to tie Northern Pacific
people that the public will retain and
carry away with them a booklet which
can be slipped into the pocket to a
much greater extent than they will
carry away a large cumbersome pam
phlet The Northern Pacific took the
initiative something over a YEAR ago
in the issuance of these pocket size
pamphlets about the Northwest, and
this one in regard to Minnesota will
form one of the series. 1t will be reg
ularly maintained as a standard pub
LEGATION and re-issued as is necessary
to supply the demands for it. 1t is
required this fall to the extent of So
900 or 100000 copies.

A Request.

The Catholic World" publishes the
following poem written by the late
General Sir William f. Butler, G..
G. b., and it tells the manner of man
ne was better than thousand
eulogies:
Give me but six-feet-three Zone inch
to spare) -.
OF Irish ground, dig it anywhere;
And for the poor soul say an Irish
prayer
Above the spot
Let it be hill where cloud and noun
tain meet,
Or vale where grows the tufted
meadow sweet.
Or borreen trod by peasants shoeless
IT matters not.
I loved them all-the vale, the hill,
The moaning sea, the fagger-lilied
rill,
The yellow furze, the lake-shore lone
and still,
The wild birds song.
But more than hill or valley. bird or
moor
More than the green fields of my
river SUR
loved those hapless ones-the Irish
poor
All my life long.
Little did for them in outward deed,
And yet be unto them of praise the
need,
For the stiff fight waged 'gainst
lust and greed;
learnt it there.
So give me Irish grave, mid Irish
air,
With Irish grass above it-anywhere:
And let some passing peasant give a
prayer
For the soul there.

The 'Disputatious Person.

The disputatious person never makes
4 good friend. In friendship, men
look for peace, and concord, and some
measure of content. There are enough
battles to fight outside, enough jarr-
Ing and jostling in the street, enough
disputing in the market-place, enough
discord in the workaday world, with
out having to look for contention in
the realm of the inner life also, There,
If anywhere, we ask for an end of
strife. Friendship is the sanctuary of
the heart. and the peace of the sane
tuary should brood over it. Its chief
est glory is that the dust and noise of
contest are excluded-Hugh Black.

My Land.

She is a rich and rare land;
Oh! she's fresh and fair land;
She is dear and rare land
This native land of mine.
No men than hers are drawer
Her women's hearts meier waver
I'd freely die to save her,
And think my lot divine.
She's not dull or cold land;
No! she's warm and bold land;
Oh! She's true and old land
This native land of mine.

Could beauty ever guard her!
And virtue still reward her!
No foe would cross her border
No friend within it pine.
Oh, she's a fresh and fair land;
Oh, she's true and rare land;
Yes, she's rare and fair land
This native land of mine.

Cardinal Losue Like. American,

Dundalk. Ireland, recently, the ad-
dress presented to him was read by a
student whose accent betrayed that he
was an American. Cardinal Logue in
replying made pleasant reference to
this: "There is no mistaking the
American accent. I passed through a
good many parts of the United States,
and I never passed through country
I was so homesick in leaving. SO I
like to meet young Americans-they
are bright, they are earnest, and,
above all, they are good Catholics"

AN EASY AND HARMLESS WAY
a TO DARKEN TIE HAIR

Who does not know of the value OF
sage and sulphur for keeping the hair
dark soft glossy and in good condi-
ton? AS matter of fact, sulphur IS
natural element of hair, and a de-
ficiency of it in the hair is held by
many scalp specialists to be connected
with loss of color and vitality OF the
hair. PROFESSIONALLY, there is no
better remedy for hair and scalp
troubles. especially premature gray
ness, than sage and sulphur, if prop
eIly prepared. The Wyerh Chemical
Company OF New York put up an ideal
remedy of this kind called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy and
