Premier Asquith in his speech in
the House of Commons last week
showed the Liberals and Nationalist
the value of courage in their politics.
He emphatically declared that the
whole United Kingdom must accept
the authority of the King, the Lords
and the Commons-that the citizen
must even submit to law that was
distasteful. He declared the whole
forces Of the crown would be arrayed
against the orangemen if they pur-
sued the present lamentable course.
The finality of the tone Of his speech
coupled with obvious logic, damp
ened seriously the Unionist tone and
had a great effect both in the House
and in the country.

some of his old books the other day.
He found that in 1855 butter sold
at forty-five cents a pound. Un-
bleached cotton cost eighty-seven
and a half cents yard, while silk,
that now costs about a dollar, sold
for So. Calico, which can be had
today for six cents, then sold for
thirty-seven and a half cents. The
housewife had to pay $3.50 for a
dozen fruit jars. No one will deny
that a good many things need right
ing. We could have better laws, not
so many of them, and more effective
administration thereof; we could
have. with more beneficent results,
more religion and less worldliness-
more thought of eternity and less OF
the fleeting present. But after all
people generally appear to be con-
tented and are having what they
consider a good time.
The croakers should be gagged.

LADY MARY
AbandOns Gay Life to Be-
come Sister of
Charity.

There are precedents in England
for noble ladies becoming nuns, but
1t is exceptional for one in the posi-
tion of Lady Mary Ashburnham, the
only child of an Earl and the great
prospective heiress, to retire from
the world. Two sisters of the Duke
of Norfolk are nuns. Lady Minna
Howard, who is a Carmelite, and
Lady Ethelreda Howard, who is a
Sister of Charity. The latter is the
Little Ethel for whom Father
Faber, author Of many popular
hymns and First Superior of the
Brompton Oratory, wrote his Tales
OF the Angels" The large white
bonnets of the Sisters of Charity
have become familiar in the streets
Of London. You may find a Dukes
sister under one Of them.

The Christian Year will not say
that the rank and file of the Socialist
supporters are insincere, but rather
that they are misled. The fact that
they tell the reading world that it
does not understand Socialism is an
evidence that they do not understand
It themselves. that they have per
mitted themselves to be hoodwinked
and that if the true meaning Of the
whole propaganda were unfolded in
all its force. they would be the first
TO condemn 1t.

Catholicity of all those lands, ~
makes quite interesting reading for
non-Catholics as well-what with its
bits of history and it's details as to
the Far East. Father Roche, the
author, is a keen observer and he
sets down what he sees in lively
style. A very pleasing feature of his
work is the brave frankness, the fine
spirit, which characterizes his con-
clusions. The author is true
American, unquestionably. 1t ap-
pears throughout his volume that he
has at heart his native lands
supremacy. Witness this, his "clos-
ing reflection"
"The United States flag has been
driven from the seas because the
other governments of the world are
paying subsidies to steamship COM
panies and in this way encouraging
national commerce. When
one has seen the rest of the world
and comes back Ito the United
States) and hears on all sides that
the country is going to the everlast-
ing bow-bows, although he sees all
about him the signs of prosperity and
plenty, he can not help having a GER
tain feeling of resentment against
the detractors of his own fair and
happy land"

SHOULD BE GAGGED.

Just at present an army OF NAL
contents is making the welkin ring
with its terrible tale of woe. II we
are to believe these fellows, this
country is in a most deplorable con-
dition. People are starving to death
by the thousands; they can not
possibly keep the wolf from the door.
The Government is in the hands OF
the enemy, and there will be no hope
for anyone until the alleged down
trodden ones rise in their majestic
might and sweep from the face Of the
earth present lawmakers and all
their vile schemes.
But are the people really in such
straightened condition as the Social
istic howlers would have us believe!
! To this the Catholic Union and Times
replies that facts do not prove their
wild contentious. Indeed everyone
appears to have money for about
every purpose. Look at the picture
shows; whole families attend them
once or twice week. Theaters that
are doing business have no reason to
complain of the attendance. Summer
resorts are by no means dull. Visit
the docks and the railway stations;
crowds are there. Walk along any
street; there are no poorly dressed
people, and all look as if they had @
enough to eat. Everyone taks0
vacation, and the world wags
