Be Lovinu.

Girls are very apt to wish to be
popular among their school friends
to be admired as the prettiest girl, the
Wittiest or quickest scholar. Certain
ly it is a good thing to be loved, but
i! is not good thing to exert ones
self only for the sake of being loved
and admired. When we have helped
a friend with lesson because we love
her; when we have kept our temper
in spite of vexation, because that is
the only way we can be like Christ;
when we run errands for mother, be-
cause it is the right thing to do, and
we love to help her, even if it does
interfere with our plans for our own
pleasure - then any admiration that
may be given US cannot hurt us or
make us vain, because we did all with
a right motive. Don't think too much
about being loved; it is much more
important that we should be loving.

Value of Convent Education.

Despite the novelties of co-educa-
ton and the attractions Of public in
situations of learning, convent educa-
ton still has a charm and power
which all are free to admit. Thor
ough instruction in religious truth,
correct moral teaching and a high
sense of duty are known to be fully
in accord with the most profound
knowledge and the widest range of
truth in every field of study. Hence
the convent bred girl can have every
intellectual advantage afforded by a
secular college; and in addition moral,
artistic and social associations of a
superior order. 1t is not surprising,
therefore, that men and women Of ev-
cry shade Of belief very considerably
have chosen for their daughters a
convent education.
In our country, pioneer conditions
have passed away, and with them the
educational limitations they imposed.
Privation and narrowness in the edu-
cation Of many were not of choice,
and the absence of culture was un-
avoidable. The future points to wider
and more varied obligations. which
demand a higher and broader educa-
ton for all. Opportunity for learning

and culture is now open to young la
dies whose mothers knew such bless
ings only as a dream. In the field of
science and letters convent instruc-
ton is not excelled. In the realm of
art and music convent training stands
pre-eminent; while in the formation
of character it's standard of true wo-
manhood is the Hottest conception the
world has ever known.-Chicago Inter-
Ocean.

Death of Prominent Gaelic Scholar.

Death of Prominent Gaelic Scholar.
Another German scholar who deyot-
ed himself to the enthusiastic study
of Gaelic died recently. This was
Ludwig Christopher Stern, Keeper of
Manuscripts in the Royal Library,
Berlin. He was noted Psychologist
before he took up Celtic studies. He
spent many years in Egypt, and on his
return to Germany he founded a Ger
man Psychological Society. A Coptic
grammar which he compiled and pub
lished is said to be the best book Of
Its kind in existence. A chance cir
cumstance diverted his attention to
Celtic studies. and having become in
terested in the subject, he pursued it
with the thoroughness which had
characterized his previous studies. I'm
like most of the other Celtic scholars
of the Continent, his interest in Irish
lay more in the modern language than
in, Old and Middle Irish, though he

How Indians Poison Arrows.

An old Cherokee Indian lately gave
away the secret how the Indians of
olden times used to poison their ar
rowheads for war purposes or for kill
ing bears. They took fresh deer
liver, fastened it to long pole, and
then went to certain places where they
knew they would find rattlesnakes in
abundance. About midday the rattlers
are all out Of their dens, coiled up in
the sun. The bucks would poke the
first RATHER they found with the liver
on the long pole. A RATHER, unlike
common snakes, always shows fight in
preference to escaping. The snake
liver with it's fangs until it's poison
was all used up, whereupon it would
quit striking and try slowly to move
on. The bucks would then hunt up
another RATHER and repeat the per-.
Torrance, keeping up the work until
the liver was we'll soaked with snake
poison. Then the pole was carried
home and fastened somewhere in an
upright position until the liver became
as dry as a bone. The liver was then
pounded to a fine powder and placed
in buckskin bag to be used as needed
for their arrows. This powder would
stick like glue to any moistened sur
face and was death to any creature
which 1t entered on arrows.

LINCOLN'S TEACHER
Was Old Irish SchooImaster-His Son
Now Trappist Monk.

NOW IrapPist Monk.
The New York Sun prints this let
ter from M. j. O'Brien:
In President Taft's speech at the
dedication of the Lincoln memorial at
Hodgensville, KY, as reported in The
Sun, he referred to the lack Of educa-
ton in the boyhood days Of the mar
tyred president.
There was very little opportunity
for schooling in Kentucky when
Lincoln was a boy, for the schools
were few and far between. But, ac-
cording to tradition, what little edu-
cation Lincoln had was received from
an old Irish schoolmaster named Riney.
The son of the man who taught the
youthful Abe the mysteries of the
primer and Dilworth's Spelling
Book is still alive at the age of 81.
He is Brother Benedict of the Trap
pist Monastery at Gethsennane, Ky.
His baptismal name was William
Riney. His father was one of the
early settlers in Hardin county, where
he was for many years engaged in
teaching school. He was a neighbor
OF Thomas Lincoln, and according to
the tradition in that section it was
Master Riney" who taught young
Abraham his letters before the fam
lily removed to Spencer county, Indi-
ara. Were 1t not for the rules Of the
Trappist order tho venerable Brother
Benedict might tell an interesting
story of Lincoln's early life.
1t Is a remarkable fact that many
OIL the pioneer teachers Of that region
were Irishmen. Abbott, in his Life
of Daniel Boone" says The noted from
tlersman was taught by an Irish
taught by Joseph Donovan at Boones-
borough; the celebrated Judge Mar
shall and President Zachary Taylor
learned the rudiments at Kane
O'fiara's school at Frankfort, while
| among others we find Hogan, McNa-
mara, Reilly, Dunleavy, Joyce, Byrne,
Whalen and 1.-The scholarly but eccen-
trio Irishman," Richard Keene, who
prepared for college many Of Ken
tucky's sons who distinguished them
selves in later years. There are sew
eral excellent authorities for the state
| ment that 1t was John Reilly who es-
| tablished the very first school In the
Valley of the Ohio, west of Pittsburgh.

An Effective Prayer.

Once in the ages past holy man
lived as recluse. He had few temp
tations. but once in a while, though
rarely, they would come as they do to
most men. One fine autumn evening
ne sat under large spreading oak
tree that shaded his little cell. He
q gave way to a feeling Of discomfort;
in fact. he murmured at the will of
God for not being in happier condi-
ton spiritually and temporarily than
that which he was enjoying. After
bordering for while over his imag-
mary troubles he thought he heard a
distant sound as of some wild animal,
but It died away. A little longer and
he heard the same sound, but this

Two More Archbishops for England

Two More Archbishops for England.
The report that two new archiepis-
copal sees were to be erected in Eng
land, has been verified. The same
mail that brought the news Of Arch
bishop Bourne's elevation to. the car
dinalate brought also the news that
the Bishops of Liverpool and Birning-
ham has been raised to the rank of
archbishop.
Grouped with Westminster under
Cardinal Bourne are the dioceses of
Northampton, Nottingham, Ports
mouth and Southwark; with Liverpool
under Archbishop Whiteside, are Hex
ham and Newcastle, Leeds, Mindless
borough and Stafford as Suffrag gan
Sees; and with Birmingham under
Archbishop Ilsley are the Sees Of
Clifton, Menevia, New port, Plymouth
and Shrewsbury. At the same time,
the Holy See has been careful in sew
eral ways to safeguard the position
of pre- eminence which has so long
been associated with the See of West
minister. Its Archbishop is to be the
permanent president at all meetings
Of the whole Hierarchy of the coun-
try, and it rests with him to summon
such meetings, in accordance with the
rules in force in Italy and elsewhere.
Moreover, he takes precedence Of the
other Archbishops, and is entitled to
, the use of the Pallium and the Throne,
and is to have the privilege of having
| the archiepiscopal cross carried before
HIM In all places in England and
| Wales. Finally, to the Archbishop Of
Westminster is entrusted the duty Of
representing the wishes of the whole
Hierarchy whenever it is necessary to
| approach the Civil Authority. To the
! Archbishops of Birmingham and Liv-
erpool are granted all the rights and
privileges ordinarily belonging to
Metropolitans in the Catholic Church.
And, as a special privilege and mark
Of favor on the part of the Holy See,
the present Bishops Of Birmingham
and Liverpool become Archbishops of
the same Sees, now raised to Metro
politan rank, without the sending Of
further Apostolic Letters.
