SEEKING HAPPINESS.

MI. Izoulet a distinguished French
Protestant, tells Catholic innovators
not to look for permanent happiness
outside of the Church. He writes:
Speaking for myself, though outside
the pale Of the Church, strongly adj
wise you to remain within it. have
endeavored to show you that, as your
affections still bind you to the Church,
your intelligence will not constrain
you to leave it. Above all things,
don't fiatter yourself with the thought
that you will be happy amongst us.
After receiving the first approvals and
fluctuations, you will look in vain for
brothers amongst a dispersed multi
tude. You will find that our liberty
is only isolation in the void. In mourn
full resignation we lead life which is
not really happy one; and in the en-
deavor to distract ourselves, If pos
sible, our intellect Is of little as
sistance. Tt occasionally happens that
we indulge in laughter, and those are
our happiest moments. But joy is
not associated with incredulity."
This is sound advice which many
have learned in the school of expert.

IN AN OLD SHOE.

enough. Children are all very well in
their way, but I want to see what's
going on in the big world. or at any
rate in the garden"
That was what Rover, the fox ter
rier thought, one fine day, not long
ago. So. watching his opportunity, he
scampered out into the garden, and
Oh, he had a glorious time!
First he scratched all round the
rose bushes, then scampered across
the beds where the quiet little lilies
of the valley were practicing the tune
they meant to play when the west
wind came past, and finally he found
wonderful treasure!
How he barked with delight, and
scampered round and round it, before
going quite close up to examine the
wonderful thing he had found!
In fact, he made such noise with
his excited barks that his little mis-
tress and her governess ran out to
see what was the matter.
But by that time Rover had made
up his mind to carry on his inquiries,
and, after much shifting and barking,
he made a dive through the great and
glorious thing he had discovered.
"Oh, Rover" laughed his mistress,
do stand still minute, there's a
good little doggie!" And Rover looked
up in establishment while she dashed
into the house and returned with a
funny little black box in her hand.
Nov what on earth has she got
there?" he thought to himself "It
looks rather interesting"
And Rover almost forgot his own
newly discovered treasure in his anxi.
ETY. to try and make out what his
mistress had found.
"She seems pleased, too" he
thought, st suppose even humans get
excited sometimes, just as dogs do
And he looked up at his mistress
in a most knowing way, as much as
to say: 'I quite understand, dear
little mistress-we're both excited
over our treasure, aren't we?"
Presently, "Snap!" he heard, and
1--WE got him at last" his mistress
cried. HE looks perfect little darl

old shoe! Doesn't he, Miss Brown
And then, to his disgust, Rover
found that he'd been photographed
He'd been SO excited over scratching
his way into the torn old shoe thai
he'd quite forgotten all about his mis-
tress' love for trying to photograph
him.
"And to think I've been caught al

wanted to take me before!" he
growled to himself At least Rovel

FINISHED HIS JOB THOROUGHLY

One of the greatest business leaders
of America started as a penniless
youth in local bank. He sought en-
ployment from larger bank in a city.
The bank officials said: "You are too
young" but the lad begged, "Give me
a chance!" And he obtained subor-
dinate position. Almost at once he
was promoted, and one promotion fol-
proved himself more valuable, and the
reason why was his open secret.
It was his policy always, first to
finish his own job as thoroughly and
yet as rapidly as possible. Next, to
spend his spare minutes studying and
training for the next job ahead. Third,
to be keen on training the man next
behind him for his own place. In this
way he moved up gradually and was
valuable every step of the way. 1t
was said of him, when he left the bank
to take a bigger place in the business
world, that each mile-post on his road
of success was "A standard reared to
efficiency and high service"
After all, that road is not impossible
for any boy to follow Added to ma
tive business talent, it made an un'
usual success out of this mans life
Added to ordinary ability, it will make
ordinary success for anyone in any
vocation. To work thoroughly and
with finish, to train ones self for the
next step, to be helpful and inspiring
to the man following just behind
these three things are in anyone's
power, and are compatible with both
true religion and good business.

eyes fixed on star,
Just try to be the fellow that your

WHEN 1T RAINS.
The Little Girl was sad.

The Little Girl was sad.
She was eight years old, and there
was going to be a picnic in honor of
the occasion, and then it rained, and
there was no picnic, and the Little
Girl was stranger in the city and
the only other little girl she knew
sent word that she couldn't come and
play with her because she had sore
throat-and it rained- and the gray
leaves f1uttered down from the tall
trees and lay dank and drizzled in
the growing pool of water, and the sky
was heavy with gray clouds-and the
dolls best dress was torn, and Old
Crompah, the dog, would not sit up
and beg or do any of his amusing
tricks.
And it rained.
All at once there was stir In the
little room. Some one was busying
himself at the f1replace-rustle, rustic,
crack, crack-a gay little flame began
to dance upon the hearth.
"Oh," said the Little Girl, what
smells so sweet?" She did not know
that the hickory logs were burning
their sweetest incense for her-the
incense that smelled of the great
woods and the dark forests and the
tall, tall trees, far, far out in the wide
country.
"Crack, crack, sparkle, sparkle -
cried the fire. "Oh," said the Little
Girl.
How nice it is in the house when it
rains out doors-and some one set
a little table with white cloth, and
put cake, iced and pink and trimmed

of the table, and there were four
chocolate creams on dish, and when
you bit into them they were pink in
side, and the baby came running down
the stairs, laughing as hard as he
could laugh.
He stretched out his little hands to
the leaping fame "Oh, SISTER," he
cried, "dey's dancing for us, dey's
dancing for us!" and he seized the
Little Girls hand and the two chill
dren danced round and round in time
to the cracking of the flames, and
the old dog sat up and begged, and
then he stood on his head and Their
he waltzed-and the Little Girl cut
thehcake and gave some of it to the
baby and some of it to the old dog
and she opened the window and scat
tered some crumbs ON the porch out
side.
"Poor birds!" she said, ''you don't
know how nice it can be in the house
when it's raining outside
And the Little Girls mother, who
had been sad all day, took deer
breath and sighed-and then she
smiled. eyes," she said, Little Girl
let's have it nice in the house ever
when it's raining outside" And she
put her hand out and drew the Little
Girl close to her heart, and was MOI
sad any more that day.-Winifre6

A FORGOTTEN COMMANDMENT.

Parental authority binds the chi1o
and parent alike-the one to the exer-
else of a God-given function, the other
to proper submission. The parent
may no more shirk his responsibility
in this regard than may the child. But
modern conditions have brought about
so ill readjustment of relations that
We are confronted by this disjointed
and illogical state of affairs: The
child looks upon the parent merely as
human provider, not as divinely
appointed guardian. 1t was not alto
gether pleasantly which described
the changed relations by the phrase:
American parents are ruled by their
children"
There are many reasons for this
topsy-turvey condition. Not the least
potent is the attitude of the state to-
wards the child's training. The state
has assumed so many functions of the
parent that the latter has coded not
only the functions but the exercise of
his authority if not his authority it.
self. Whatever may be said in favor
of this paternal manner of the state
towards the home, it cannot be denied
that parental authority has thereby
been greatly impaired. Now the result
OF this lessening respect for the au-
thority of the parent is bound to be
in the long run lessening of respect
for the authority of the state. The
government which must depend for it's
stability and permanency upon the cit
liens respect for authority cannot
hope for much from those who will
come up from youth with an almost
trained disregard of the higher au-
thority of the parents.
The more the state assumes, the
more do parents let go. Their au-
thority unused, becomes of small mo-
ment not only to the child but to
themselves. Thus, there was time
when the mere fact that boy or girl
was at work did not purchase for them
immunity from all parental restraint
and control. At the present time, how
ever, working children are presumed
by their parents to be law unto
themselves. They choose their amuse-
ments and companions as they please.
Their comings and goings they regu-
late themselves. Honor thy father
and thy mother" bears for them pre-
cisely that significance which the par
ents' recreancy to their duty has Civ
en- it.
Whether the state shall go farther
in its usurpation of the parents place
is a question. The present tendency
points that way. The duty of the par.
ents, however, persists with never les.
sening force. Honor thy father and
thy mother" binds the child; but it
binds the parent also, and no state
assumption of his place can ever free
him from the obligation of insisting
upon his parental authority and of ex
acting a fitting obedience to that in
junction which God Himself dignified
by making it one of His command
ments.-The Visitor.

HERoIsM IN LITTLE THINGS.

Too many of us are ready, if called
upon, to do great and noble things for
God and our neighbor, but the little,
lowly, everyday things that might be
always at our hand, we have no desire
for. When Mother Margaret Hallahan
was struggling with difficulties at the
founding of her order (the Dominican
Congregation of st. Catherine of
Siena) she found many who were will
ing to do heroic penances in their zeal
to be holy, but who shrank from help
full tasks which they considered mental
and unbecoming. Seeing this she
wrote: MANY would prefer to wear
hair shirt or chain than to clean
the kitchen, wash, iron or sweep"
Sainthood is not won by picturesque
posing. 1t is well to be good; but it
is better to be good for something.
Our Blessed Lord in the Gospel COM
mended Mary because she had chosen
the better part, but we may be sure
that her apparent neglect of the
household duties was not the result of
distaste for such duties. 1t was not
because she was ashamed to be seen
doing mental things that she chose to
| sit at the feet of Jesus. Our Blessed
Saviour saw the heart of Mary. He
knew she was offering the service her
| soul dictated without any false pride
| or human respect, and therefore His
commentator of her when Martha, the
busy, impulsive sister, sought to have
her reprimanded. But there are all
too many people who take wrong
view of this situation, and who think
they are contemplative when they are
Simply lazy "The more I see of
human nature" wrote the remarkable
woman whose words we have before
quoted, ''the more I feel certain that
humble and laborious employments are
the best modification, the shortest way
to obtain true humility and to make
US have proper feeling of charity to-
wards the laborious and the poor; we
can ill give lessons to others in things
We have not ourselves experienced. y
Mother Margaret was ashamed to do
nothing, no matter how humble, which
she felt was part of her duty. For
human respect she had the greatest
| horror, knowing that it was the
obstacle to many great movements for
the honor of Almighty God and the
welfare of mankind. Her biographer
tells that once when she was going
with a young friend to visit the poor
she asked the young woman to carry
a large parcel. The lady proposed to
give child penny to carry it. "No,'
said Sister Margaret, 81 will carry il
myself" On this her companion en-
treated to be allowed to take it, but
Sister Margaret was firm. "You are
not worthy of carrying it, she said
''as you are ashamed of it." She then
told her that in her youth, she had
felt the same false shame at carrying
parcels in the streets and to conquer
herself she bought the largest hand
box she could find, and carried it w
land down one of the principal streets
in London.
It would be we'll for us all to have
some of the spirit of this noble woman
and overcoming our pride, set to work
at whatever lies nearest our hand, nc
matter how small it seems, so long al
it has for it's motive the service o.

THE PROPER TRIBUTE.

Why do we lay upon the bier of
our loved ones, tributes Of affection
expressed in garlands of flowers, so
soon to fade and die? Is it that we
think, in our binding grief, that the
subtle fragrance of the blossoms will
watt beyond the tomb message of
love to the departed one? Garlands
there are, indeed, that will bear this
message from our sorrowing hearts
across the chasm of death, and watt
their fragrance to the Throne of Grace
in petition for the happy repose OF
the soul of our loved one, and these
