THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
EAVESDROPPERS.

Do you know why a person who
listens at keyhole is called an caves
dropper?
About two hundred years ago there
was certain very powerful secret So
ciety which would allow no outsider
to hear or see what went on at it's
meetings. There were some people in
those days, just as there are now, who
spent much of their time in prying
into other persons affairs, and they
tried in all sorts Of ways to discover
what this society was doing. They
kept on trying until several of them
were caught and punished, and that
put an end to the prowling around and
listening at knot holes or chinks in
the wall; for when a man was caught
at this trick he was condemned to be
suspended for a short time under the
caves of a shed while it was raining
hard, until the water ran in under his
collar and out at his shoes; and from
that day until this prying person has
been called an "eavesdropper."

A PAPER DOLLS HOUSE.

Helen had no brothers or sisters to
play with her, SO sometimes she had
hard time amusing herself She had
lots of dolls and dishes and doll furni-
ture; but one gets tired after while
of dressing dolls, and the grandest
tea party loses most of it's charm when
there's no one but dolls to share it.
She even tried inviting Fido, but his
table manners were bad. Puss' were
not much better, either, so they were
not invited second time. But Helen
had the jolliest, pleasantest mamma
imaginable, and she was fine play
fellow when she had the time. She
was always thinking ways to make
pretty toys.
One day she brought in a blank
book about fifteen inches long and
ten inches wide. It opened endwise,
like a post card album.
What do you guess this is going to
be?" she asked Helen, her eyes spark
ling with enthusiasm.
Helen shook her head.
"a house for your paper dolls!"
Helen could not see how a book
could become house, but, if mamma
said so, it was all right. She could
do anything.
Mamma opened the book at the first
blank page.
This is to be the hall, so let's hunt
some furniture for it." So they got
out some old furniture catalogues,
magazines, and papers, and began to
look for suitable pieces of furniture.
shall we have it in mission, or wal
nut, or oak? You like this heavy oak
set? All right: We'll just cut out this
hat rack and paste it over here on
the page Then this settee and two
straight chairs. Now for a rug and
some pictures"
BY this time Helen understood all
about this interesting sort of house,
so she begged to finish it's furnishing
all by herself. When she wanted
door or window, she drew them on
the page, and then pasted up her
draperies and curtains. What a de-
lightful task it was to furnish the par
lor Or drawing-room, and the bed
rooms-one for each doll-were a joy
for many days. 1t took long time
also to furnish the dining-room, and
to find dishes, silver and glass to suit
her taste. The kitchen was most in
teresting, and you may be sure it was
fitted up with everything that the
most fastidious paper-doll cook could
wish for.
Now, isn't this nice house." said
her mamma, "for your large family of
paper dollies that have been knocking
about with nowhere to lay their heads,
so to speak? Of course, all you have
to do when the rooms are ready is
to put each doll in his or her room and
close-the book"

What to closed eyes are kind sayings
What to hushed heart is deep vow?
Naught can avail after parting,
So give them the flowers now.
Just kind word or greeting,
Just warm grasp or smile =
These are the flowers that will tighten
The burdens of many a mile.
After the journey is over,
What is the use of them, how
Can they carry, who must be carried
So give them the flowers now.
Blooms from happy hearts garden,
Plucked in the spirit of love;
Blooms that are earthly reflections
Of flowers that blossom above.
Words cannot tell what a measure
Of blessing such gifts will allow
To dwell in the lives of the many
Oh, give them the flowers now!

SWEAR OFF.

Gossiping,
Anticipating evils in the future,
Faultfnding, nagging and worrying,
Dwelling on fancied sights and
wrongs,
Scolding, and flying into a passion
over trifes,
Thinking that life is a grind and not
worth living,
Talking constantly about yourself and
your affairs,
Saying unkind things about acquaint-
ances and friends,
Lamenting the past, holding on the
disagreeable experiences,
Plying yourself and bemoaning your
lack of opportunities,
Writing letters when the blood is
hot, which you may regret later,
Thinking that all the good chances
and opportunities are gone by,
Carping and criticising. See the best,
rather than the worst in others,
Dreaming you would be happier in
some other place or circumstances,
Belittling those whom you envy be-
cause you feel they are superior to
yourself,
Dilating on your pains and aches and
misfortunes to every one who will
listen to you,
Gazing idly into the future, instead of
making the most of the present.

CLOTHES DO NOT MAKE THE
GIRL.

Clothes do not make the girl any
very often dress is indicative of the
character Immodest and vulgar
gowns do not lead one to think that
the wearer of them is religious or
even womanly Custom may have
much to do with it, but even custom,
the prevalence of certain fashions,
cannot induce a true woman to make
of herself an Objectionable sight. If
it be so with the woman herself, what
shall be said of her young daughter?
Yet there are many good Catholic
mothers, apparently devout, who,
while vigorously modest themselves,
stand by idly and watch their girls
deck themselves in the extremes of
styles, with gaudy and cheap orna-
ments. 1t is custom, again, the fol-
lowing of a craze which is appealing
to the immature girl, who scarcely
realizes to what danger she is expos
ing herself by dressing in the fashion
of those to whom innocence and mod
esty is a byword. But if the girl is
thoughtless the mother should not be.
She knows enough of the world to
realize that the dearest possession of
her daughters is their good name and
that the good name may be lost if they
merely seem to place themselves on
the level of those who brazenly faunt
indecency to lure souls to destruction.

WHEN TO SHAKE HANDS.

When to shake hands depends on
may be given.
When man is introduced to lady
she does not shake hands with him
unless he is distinguished or great
deal older than herself. If he is a
husband or brother of the lady max
ing the Introduction it is natural to
receive him cordially by shaking
hands, but it is not usual to do so if
he is a mere acquaintance.
A hostess should shake hands with
all the guests who come to her house,
both on their arrival and departure.
Women do not shake hands when in
troduced to each other, but merely
bow. When, however, a young girl is
presented by a friend to married
woman, the latter generally shakes
hands with her, but the girl should not
make the first advance.
Men shake hands when introduced
to each other as an expression of
goodwill.
When leaving an entertainment a,
man shakes hands with the hostess,
and he may do so with any friends
who are near, but he should not, of
course, go about shaking hands gen.
orally.
GIVE THEM THE FLOWERS NOW.
Closed eyes can't see the white roses,
Cold hands can't hold them, you
know;
Breath that is stilled cannot gather
The odors that sweet from them
blow.
Death, with a peace beyond dream
ing,
Its children of earth doth endow;
Life is the time we can help them,
So give them the flowers now.
Here are the struggles and striving,
Here are the cares and the tears;
Now is the time to the smoothing
The frowns and the burrows and
fears.
