Castor and Pollux were famous Of old,
They were compa nions, as now we re-.
call;
Prominent people, forsooth, we are told.
But to each other they were "CaS" and
"Pol."
Thy were as chummy as chummy could
Travelled together with smiles on each
face;
Never n quarrel between them-you see,
Castor-he never got Pollux a place.
Damon and Pythias-they were n pair
Held as examples to all OF the youth:
Children were told how this couple would
share
Troubles and gladness alike, in all
truth.
Some people claim that the talo Is q
myth,
1t is enshrouded in history's gloom,
Still we know this about Damon and
Pyth.,
Neither one framed for the other
boom.
David and Jonathan-shepherd and
prince
They were renowned for the friendship
they had;
Nothing like it has been jotted down
since;
Jonathan stuck to his friend 'gainst his
dad.
They never figured when friendship must
cease.
Gossips with them simply couldn't play
hob:
They were as friendly as ever you please
Jonathan never got David a job.
Caesar and Brutus were friends for a
while,
Remus and Romulus once were a pair
Once at the stories of each they would
smile,
Each wore the toga the other would
wear
But like the oft mentioned rift In the
Lutte.
Something occurred TO give friendship
a jar
Politics entered with whisper and hoot:
Boom bumped in boom, so, you see,
there you are.
Once it was Theodore" once 1t was
"Will."-
Oaura Jean Libbey could phrase this
somehow;
She could provide it title to thrill:
("Bosom Friends Yesterday, Strangers,
Though, Now.'D

bloom;
This is the rule they accomplished It
with:
Neither one passed to the other a boom.

CLEAN SMALL RUGS AT HOME
Work Not Hard and Is a Saving Of
Expense-Never Wash Them
on the Floor.

It is better to clean small rugs at
home than to send them to profession
al cleaners. Small rugs should be
taken to the grass plot and there
beaten we'll with light whip or rug
beater. Do not turn over and beat
on the wrong side, as that breaks the
rug. The beating on the surface
brings the dirt to the top, and this
should then be swept off, sweeping
with the nap. not against it, as this
wears out the rug. Also when lay
ing large rugs lay them so that when
they are swept it will always be with
the nap. A badly soiled rug may be
washed. Do not attempt to wash
large rugs while on the floor. This
method has been widely advertised
and appeals to the housekeeper be-
cause she need not take up her rugs,
but the water soaks through and, hav-
ing no way of escaping, dries up,
leaving a layer OF mud between the
warp, which gradually rots the
threads, while the carpet looks bright
on top. After a rug has been well
beaten the soiled parts may be washed
out with a solution of soap bark or
borax and water, using an ounce of
bark to gallon of water. The rugs
are laid fiat for this purpose. and IL
done carefully and the rugs then
wiped off with n cloth wrung out Of

MEDICAL SCIENCE SAYS:
- -
By John Nelson Colha. A. NJ. MD.
90 YOUR DRINKING AT MEAL
TIME.

The tiue to drink water is at meal
time, rather than between meals.
Drinking between periods of digestion
interferes with the stomach's natural
rest. This very important principle Is
also overlooked and violated when we
eat candies and fruits between meals.
Water is not believed to call into
operation the activities of the diges-
tive glands in the same way that all
other liquids as we'll as solids do, but
the disposal of water does undoubted-
ly excite the muscular movements of
the stomach.
We need much water. Large
amounts are being constantly given
OFF by evaporation from the skin, ex-
halation by the lungs, and excretion
through the various organs. But We
also take in great quantities of water
in ways we never think Of. Bread,
for instance, contains moisture in the
proportion of about SO per cent. for
the Vienna or French type, and 80 per
cent. in homemade bread. In cooked
meats the percentage OF water ranges
from 40 to 80, while in many vegeta-
bles and most fruits the water con-
tent is from 80 to SO per cent.
Still. We need more. and the desire
to drink while eating is physiologi-
cal as we'll as natural one. About
the only restriction is that We must
not make a sluice-box Of our mouths,
and use water as a conveyor to carry
on food which we have not taken time
to masticate. There is practically no
danger of our drinking enough at
meal-time to dilute the gastric juice"
as has sometimes been declared.

CATHOLIC ONLY IN NAME.

Some time ago there was organ
lied in St. Paul a Catholic News
Association with headquarters at
351 Minnesota Street. We do not
know what the object Of this asso-
citation is. It's organizers were
very reticent in regard to it's aim
and purpose. We do know, how
ever, that on the strength Of it's
name, supplemented by the utterly
false assertion that prominent
ecclesiastics in this city were in
terested in it's welfare, it's pro-
moters have endeavored to secure
financial contributions here and
elsewhere. It is needless to state
that no priest or prelate in Mime
sofa is in any way, either directly
or Indirectly, interested in the So
called Catholic News Association.
We deem it necessary to issue a
warning to the public lest any one
be deceived by the misrepresenta-
lions OF it's promoters or agents on
the plea that contributions given
to them will be used for the
furtherance Of any legitimate
Catholic enterprise here or else
where. The Association is Catho-
lie in name only.
In justice to those who are
doing a reputable printing bust
ness at 351 Minnesota Street, it is
but fair to state that they are in
no way connected with, or inter
ested in, the so-called Catholic
News Association. We believe
that they were induced to allow it
to use their office merely as an
accommodation without knowing
it's real purpose.

minister, the other un-
der the direction of a Campbellite
minister. To offset the evil effects
of these institutions the Jesuits
have hired house were students
can be accommodated as cheaply
as in the Protestant boarding
houses. But funds are needed to
enable them to carry on this work
On as large a scale as it ought to
be conducted in order that the
students whose faith is endan-
gered may be rescued from their
perilous positions. This is one Of
the many means that have been
employed by the Protestant sects
to lure away the Filipinos from
their allegiance to the Catholic
Church; and, no doubt, this en-
vironment will influence the I'M
formed minds Of some, at least, of
the Filipino students and wean
them away from the faith Of their
forefathers. It will prove more
effective in the long run than any
direct preaching against the Cath
Ollie Church to which the natives
are devoted.

PROTESTANT INTOLERANCE.

Press reports from Belfast, Ire
land, are to the effect that Cath
Ollie advocates of Home Rule are
suffering great hardships at the
hands of their Orange fellow citi-
zens who do not want to see Ire
land enjoy the rights for which
she has struggled for generations.
Over 1900 people are said to be
on the verge of starvation in Bel
fast and it's environs on account
OF this anti-Catholic and anti
Home-Rule prejudice. For over a
month Catholics and Liberals who
should have been working in the
shipyards and workshops have
suffered, with their families,
through enforced idleness because
they are regarded as traitors by
the Orangemen. 1t is a lamentable
state of affairs and speaks louder
than words of the lengths to
which the Protestants of Ulster
will go in their intolerance
towards Catholics and their oppo-
sition to Home Rule.

SAVE THE SUNDAY.

Newspaper enterprise, so-called,
has found a way to disturb the
comparative quiet and peace of a
New York Sunday afternoon. The
publishers Of one Of the metro
politan dailies, not content with
an evening issue on six days of
the week, have placed Sunday
evening edition in the hands of
the newsboys who 1aunt it's glar-
ing and sensational headlines be-
fore the passers-by and proclaim
it's questionable attractions in an
effort to secure the patronage of
the public. AS result the
character of the Sunday has
already been altered to a notice
able extent. The street cars and
parks are occupied by people
busily engaged in porting over
the latest sensation. Other pub
fishers are likely to follow this
lead as the innovation is proving
a financial success. Thus the pub
lie is being gradually weaned from
the old idea of the sanctity Of the
Sunday, and it's religious charac-
ter is being relegated to the back
ground. This is an unfortunate
departure. We need in this age to
enforce, rather than decry, the
Christian idea of the Sunday as a
means of lifting our thoughts
above the marts of trade and
turning our hearts and aspirations
towards "the things that are
above" in order that we may
make the most of life's oppor-
tunities.
