THE TRUE VACATION.

We see in this world chiefly what we
look for. A farmer going along ex-
amines the farms, an architect the build
ings, a merchant the condition of the
markets, minister the churches.
He who is constantly looking for
troubles will find them stretching off into
the gloomy wilderness. He who is
watching for blessings will find them
hither and thither extending in perfect
harvest of luxuriance.
In this vacation season be sure that
YOU take vacation from your troubles
and worries Leave them behind as the
most useless OF all of your baggage.
Away-away with ali forebodings.
Light laden, go forth among nature.
Loom up towards the sky so brilliantly
bright by day, or at night merry with
ten thousand stars joining hands of light,
with the earth in the ring, going around
and around with gleam and dance and
song, making old time himself feel
young again.
(, Go to the woods where the cool and
sifted breeze is scented with natures fra
GRANGE and is sweet with natures songs.
Go to where the streams leap up and
down off of the rocks, and their crystal
heels chatter and glisten over the pure
white pebbles.
Hark to the huting of the wind and
the long-meter psalm of the thunder.
Hear the fairy patter of the fairy footed
RAIN dancing on the swaylng leaves.
Look at the morning striding down the
hills, routing the skulking shadows.
See evening drawing aside the curtain
from heavens wall of jasper, sardonyx
and amethyst
Look on all this and feel that Gods
in His place and there is room in your
soul for peace.

WHAT is THE PRICE?

The above question is heard in busi-
ness circles probably oftener than in any
other. Every customer wishes to know
before purchasing, what the cost is to be.
This is wise; and it would also be wise
in all the affairs Of life, before committing
ourselves to anything to pause and in
quire, "What is the price," For to every
thing in this world is affixed price, and
the price that must be paid. We may
for a time lose sight of this fact, but it is
fact still and will reassert itself when we
least expect it. Thief may forget in his
momentary temptation to steal that there
is price attached to stealing; but when
he stands behind iron bars and the
dreary round of the prison is grinding
the life out of him, he will remember
that the price must be paid.
And so in everything else, Every
action, great or small, has its own price
attached Delay it as long as you can,
battle with the workings of Providence
| as you will, the account must be paid.
In all of your actions then, count the
cost. Ask yourself always, "What is
the price?' You will frequently hear a
customer inform the merchant that the
price is too high. Beware, in the market
of life of purchasing the things that are
too dear. When tempted to violate the
law of the land, look on the gloomy
| prison walls and refrain. Before using a
single harsh word before doing the
slightest unkind action, reflect that II
has price. The purchaser OF earthly
goods often complains that he has paid
too much; so it will be with nany of us
| And it NAV be that some OF us may
repent through countless ages, that fol-
some mere earthly gain or pleasure we
have paid the price of eternal ruin.
1t is ten thousand times harder to bt
generous. 1t is easy enough to give ;
poor woman dollar but when it come:
to following straight line, being Just il
! all things, Just to God, to your family
to your children, to all men, 1t is differ
ent thing. Some men are never just tC
their wives. They pay their cook s
very willingly on Saturday night, bu
when the hardworking, economical, pain
stalking wife asks for little money OF
Monday, the brute will say, "Oh, wife
what do you want with money!"
Witty sayings are as easily lost a
the pearls slipping off of broker
string, but a word of kindness is seldom
spoken in vain. 1t is seed which
even when dropped by chance, spring
up into flower.

DRUMMERS AND DRINK.

The Temperance Cause expresses
the opinion that a remarkable change
has taken place within recent years
among travelling men in regard to the
use of liquor. 1t is safe to assert that
a majority of these commercial travel
ers let strong drink alone. Recently
couple of Boston travelling men on
their way home were discussing bust
ness, politics and current events gen.
orally, when one of them remarked
that he certainly had a thick head on
him that day because of few drinks
of liquor he had taken the night be-
fore. The other asked him why he
drank and the reply was, to clinch an
order His companion turned on him
with this advice:
Better cut it out. Better lose a
customer than your own self respect,
and gain the habit. I was instructed
to do the good-fellow play when
started on the road, but I am older
than you. I used to do a little bust
ness that way, but since little Jimmie
and Pet came along have done some
hard thinking on the long jump and
have concluded no drinks for me. You
can't do yourself justice and drink
liquor to please some one else. The
man who tells you he has always
drunk little and it never hurt him
isn't quite sure of himself and wants
you to help bolster him up. I have no
sympathy with you or with your head
ache. hope the next time you throw
in the calamity water it will put you
on the blink for three weeks. Cut

CATHOLIC SCHOOLS AND
COLLEGES.

This week the work of another
school year is being resumed in
Catholic schools and colleges.
The prospects are bright for an
attendance that will tax the ac-
commodations Of these institu-
lions. It is an evidence that Cath
olics are coming to realize more
and more the value Of the educa-
tional training given in schools
conducted under the auspices of
the Church. Catholic parents who
have at heart the spiritual no less
than the temporal welfare of their
children will make every effort,
even to the extent of personal
self-sacrifce, if such be necessary,
to give their children the advan-
tages Of a thoroughly Catholic
education. Catholic schools and
colleges are numerous and we'll
equipped and there is scarcely any
reason why Catholic parents
should place their children in
non-Catholic institutions. Those
who can afford the best should
be satisfied with nothing short of
it; and those who have expert
enced the benefits Of a truly Cath
Ollie training should do all in
their power to influence others to
take advantage Of the opportuni-
ties within their reach.
The question of what school to
send the child to is a very i'm
portant one at this time for Catho-
lie parents. Upon the decision
rests the welfare of the child here
and hereafter. For that reason
the subject of Catholic education
is timely one for meditation by
Catholics in general; and it is
appropriate that the intention OF
the League of the Sacred Heart
for the month of September is
T"Catholic Schools and Colleges.
The Church s anxiety about the
education of her children should
be shared by all Catholic parents
There is no doubt that the school
| is a mighty force for shaping

so NEAR AND YET so FAR

Even in death the late Bishop
Grafton Of the Episcopal Diocese
Of Fond du Lac, Wis, was sur
rounded with the ceremonial
pomp borrowed from the Catholic
Church. During his life he was
a pronounced ritualist and was
recognized as the leader Of the
high-church party in the Episco-
pal church of the United States.
In religious functions he came
as near to the Catholic Church
as he could in the external forms
Of worship; and it is not for us to
judge how far the spirit Of the
true religion may have animated
his life and labors.
After death his remains were
borne to his Cathedral church,
where they lay in state until the
funeral service. The following
description, taken from the secu-
lar press, Of what took place in
connection with his obsequies
reads very much like an account
of the funeral Of a Bishop of the
Catholic Church. "Attired in
full episcopal robes and a white
mitre on his head, the dead pre-
late reclines in a bronze casket.
One hand clasps a chalice and
paten, while lying across the top
of the casket is the pastoral staff
and crozier. During the day
eighteen Masses were read, while
tonight from nine to ten the Of
flee for the dead was held in St.
Paul's Cathedral
It is not improbable that Bish-
op Grafton was as nearly Catho-
lie as one can be and remainwith-
out the true fold. Not a few of
those who followed his lead in
high-church ritualism were con.
strained, by the force Of logic, to
discard the shadow for the sub,
stance and enter the Catholic
Church, where they found the full
ness of religious truth which
they craved and the true symbolic
meaning and JUNCTION Of the
ceremonies which appealed sc
strongly to them before they &C
cepted the true faith.

souls for God or against Him. tt
not only forms or deforms the.
young mind and heart, but in.
shaping the attitude of the mind
towards the world Of thought and
action, it fixes the way of think
ing and, consequently, Of acting
for after life. It does this large
ly by what it positively teaches
or leaves untaught; but it does
it principally by the mental and
moral atmosphere it gives the boy
or girl to live and be formed in
Hence, Catholic parents cannot
exercise too great care in select
ing the proper school for their
children. It is unnecessary to
state that it should always be a
Catholic school, and among these
the best that ones means can
provide. IF Catholics show them
selves loyal to the Church in her
efforts to provide a Catholic
school training for all, the future
of Catholicity will be a bright one.

A TRIBUTE TO THE PARO.
CHIAL SCHOOLS.

In the course of an interview
published in the St. Paul Dis
patch last week, President Boer-
niger Of the st. Paul School
Board, emphasized the need Of a
supervisor Of penmanship in the
public schools Of this city. "Not
more than five per cent of the ST..
Paul teachers, he says, care able
to write a neat and legible hand,
indicating a knowledge of the
principles of writing. I speak
from knowledge. [ have $50
specimens Of the writing of public
school teachers. " He lays the
blame for this deplorable state Of
affairs upon the different systems
Of writing-such as the vertical,
slant, backhand and other varie-
ties-that have been successfully
foisted upon the teachers and pu-
pills Of the public schools.
From this it would seem that
the art Of writing is rapidly b"
coming a lost art among the
teachers and graduates of the
public schools of St. Paul. Some
thing ought to be done to remedy
this, and if the appointment of a
supervisor Of writing will solve
the problem why hesitate to re-
store this important art to the
position it should occupy in the
curriculum? Even in these days
Of the typewriter, the ability to
write a neat, legible hand is an
accomplishment which business
men view with satisfaction, and it
should be cultivated in all schools.
In this connection it is pleasing
to note that a similar complaint
cannot be made against the paro-
chial schools. In the course of
his interview President Boering-
er pays a well-merited tribute to
the writing Of the graduates of
our parish schools. He says: II
am informed on good authority
that the parochial schools have
requests from business men for
boys for thirty-two positions more
than the schools can fill, and in
each case the business man says
that the public school boys are
not available because they cannot
write neatly and legibly. The
parochia1 schools take much pains
in the teaching Of writing.'
This is another reason why Cath
olics should send their children
to the parish school provided for
them.

will be denied to all except those
for whose benefit they were in
tended. The announcement made
by the department. reads as fol-
lows:
Cali persons who use the gen
eral delivery system must furnish
statement in writing specifying
their full names and addresses
and explaining why they wish to
be served through the general de-
livery.
minors must furnish the names
Of their parents, so that the lat
ter may control the delivery of
mail. Postmasters are also per-
mitted at their discretion to mott
fly parents where it appears that
minors are obtaining their mail
under Objectionable circum-
stances. -
This will prevent the use Of the
general delivery by minors and
others who may desire to carry
on clandestine correspondence
or to use it for purposes other
than those for which it was or,
iginally intended.
