DINNER HINTS.

The proper number of shell fish,
oysters or clans for the individual
plate at dinner is half dozen. They
should be served in their own shells
on bed of crushed ice, and with
them go pepper, both red and black,
horse-radish, slices of lemon, salt or
any desired relish.
Soup is served in deep plates stood
on the fiat plate holding the napkin
and roll. Both plates are removed
when. the soup is finished.
At an informal dinner beginning
with the soup course, the hostess
serves the soup from tureen at her
place, either passing it along with the
help of the guests or giving it to the
maid to pass.
Individual salt cellars have been
abandoned in favor of two large eel
lars placed at either end of the table.
A number of small cellars detract from
the symmetry of the table, while the
larger ones are decorative in effect.

DO GOOD NOW.

DIR. johnson wisely said: He who
waits to do a great deal of good at
once, will never do anything" Life
is made up of little things. It is but
once in an age that occasion is
offered for a great deed. True great
ness consists in being great in little
things. How are railways built? By
one shovelful of dirt after another;
one shovelful at time. Thus drops
make the ocean. Hence we should
be willing to do a little good at a
time, and never wait to do a great
deal of good at once" If we would
do much good in little things little
acts one after another; speaking a
word here, giving tract there, and
setting a good example at all times:
we must do the first good thing we
can, and then the next, and the next,
and so keep on doing. This is the
way to accomplish anything. Thus
only shall we do all the good in our
power.

TOYS OF LONG AGO.

Rag dolls are as old as the hills
and SO are dolls with movable arms
and legs, toy dogs, rocking horses and
a host of other things that bring de.
light to the children on Christmas
morning.
Recent excavations in the ruins OF
ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt have
placed the British Museum in posses.
sion of an interesting assortment OF
these relics of early Christian days
some of which may possibly have
been given to the children of the fol
lowers of Christ at time when the
observation of Christmas Day was an
innovation.
In the nursery of a newly excayated
house at Behnesa, Egypt, fairly well
preserved rag doll was found with
arms and legs still intact and painted
face. The doll is by no means a
beauty. and does not compare with the
Christmas dolls of today, but neyerthe.
less it must have brought joy to a
little girls heart nearly two thousand
years ago.
The jointed dolls of long ago were
made to sit down, stand up and move
their arms, but they didn't close their
eyes or squeak mamma. Among the
toy dogs, horses and donkeys are
some made of stone and baked clay
and others carved out of wood

CONTRASTS.

The smiles are on the surface,
But the tears are down below,
Our joys are like the bubbles
That the little children blow.
Our trials are like the anchors
That sink down into the sea
We spend our lives in hosting,
But they will not struggle free.
The blooms are on the branches,
But the fruit is in the vine,
And the unattained endeavor
Holds the sweetness of the wine
Our brightness and our laughter
Are the ripples on the deep;
Beneath the silver waters
All the darkling shadows sleep.
Our songs are shallow echoes
Of silences that lie
Beneath the human anguish
And the spirits muffled cry.
But, so we keep the laughter,
And so we keep the song,
The struggles will be sweetened
And the strife. will not be long.

GOOD REASONS.

An intelligent mother thus summed
up the other day the reasons why she
sent her six children to the parochial
schools:
/. Because / think the Catholic
schools do better teaching than the
State schools.
2. Because the Sisters teach good
manners to their pupils.
8. Because am too busy to in
,struct my children in my religion
and the Sisters do it for me.
4. Because my boys learn to be
.docile and obedient.
5. Because l have no difficulty in
getting them to hear Mass on Sunday.
6. Because the children get school
work to do at home; and / have them
around me in the evening, instead of
scattered about the streets.
z Because the children are so hap
Ply at school, and are so much at
tached to their teachers.
s. Because l wish my boys and
girls to become good Catholics.
9. Because want my children to
save their souls.

CLEAN YOUR GLASSES.

The most scientifically fitted glasses
in the world will do more harm than
good unless they are properly kept and
correctly worn. 1t is a strong state
ment to make, but most people wear
dirty glasses, even those who are
fastidiously careful in all other re-
spects. Peering through any clouded
and uncertain window is a strain upon
the vision. How much more must the
strain be when the window is so close
to the eye that it is almost a part
of it!
Glasses must be worn at the exact
angle for which they were prescribed
and no other. For this reason many
people and all children do better in
spectacles than in eyeglasses. The
glasses should be fitted to the eye by
the optician after which care should
be taken not to handle and loosen the
frame. If this occurs in the slightest
degree they should again be fitted and
frightened.

behind Johnny and running vigorously
Toms feet seemed to grow heavy, and
Johnny steadily decreased the distance
between them, until finally he shot
past Tom and, with a sudden squirt,
gained the goal fully five yards in adj
vance. jim was close behind, and he,
too, sped over the line little ahead
of Tom, but enough to give him second
place and to leave Tom out of the race.
why, Tom, what was the matter?'
asked the teacher as the defeated boy
came toward her with tears streaming
down his face.
His only answer was sob.
Tell me what happened, Tom"
Tom dug his knuckles into his eyes
to dry his tears and tried to tell his
story.

Eyes, you led them all.
But when I got half way there the
boys began to bawl: Go it, Johnny,
you're second. Hustle, Jim, you're
gaining! Run, Johnny, run! you're
most up to him. But nobody said:
Go it, Tom and somehow it got into
my legs and they wouldn't co." and
Tom dropping to the ground in a
heap, cried as though his heart would
break

ENCOURAGEMENT.

Here is a little tale with moral.
Read it and ponder:
Tom was an athlete and won most
of the races and other contests of
strength. Through various winsome
traits he found his way to the hearts
of his teacher and she was always In
terested in his success.
One day arrangements were made
for foot race. Several boys were to
run, although everybody was sure that
Tom would win.
The preliminaries were settled, the
race started, and the boys were on
over the course. Tom led clear and
free for about half the distance, then.

began to gain on him Jim was lust

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
NO BUTTER FOR BREAKFAST.

when | was boy" said General
Grant, my mother one morning found
herself without butter for breakfast
and sent me to borrow some from a
neighbor. Going into the house with.
| out knocking, overheard letter read
| from the son of neighbor who was
then at West Point, stating that he
had failed in examination and was
coming home I got the butter, took
it home, and without waiting for
breakfast, ran to the Office of the con.
gresham for our district.
Mr.. Hammer said, will you ap.
point me to West Point?'
No; Davis is there, and has three
years to server
"'But suppose he should fail will
you send me?'
"Mr. Hammer laughed. IF he does
not go through, it is no use for you to
try, Uly.'
Promise me you will give me the
chance, Mr.. Hammer, anyhow.
"Mr. Hammer promised. The next
day the defeated lad came home, and
the congressman, laughing at my
sharpness, gave me, the appointment.
Now" said Grant, st was my
mothers being without butter that
made me general and president
But he was mistaken It was his
own shrewdness to see the chance and
the promptness to seize it that urged
him upward.
He was resolute and unafraid al
ways; boy to be trusted and counted
upon-sturdy and capable of hard
knocks. If he said. 81 can do that,
he not merely meant that he would try
to do it but that he had thought his
way to the successful end.of the under
taking. He was an unusually deter
mined boy, and as a man he did not
begin on anything until he understood
it, and when he began he stuck to ii
till it was accomplished. -Marsden

THE WOMAN WHO CHARMS.

Carried to excess this desire to
please becomes affectation. pleas
ing is not always agreeing with the
last person who has spoken, as many
seem to think. That sort of thing
detracts from the character of one
who does, it. But pleasing" in it's
true sense is graciousness. tact, a
sincere desire to offend the feeling of
mo one.
1t is perfectly possible to disagree
without giving offense, to express
opinions quite different from those
held by another speaker One can be
come positive without becoming ag-
gressiye, and determined without
brutality. It is largely a question of
tact
Goodness of heart is the real basis
of pleasing manner. A woman who
is kind-hearted does not wish to hurt
the feelings of others; she wishes to
please and give happiness and pleas
ure by her presence. A polite woman
realizes that through charm of manner
she gains popularity, and cultivates
it accordingly. Yet success is far less
likely to attend her efforts than she
who tries for goodness. The nature
of the former rarely rings true; it is
not deep and sincere, for it springs
from artificiality instead of truth, and
is less apt to be convincing.
A woman in business who has a
pleasing manner possesses capital
sometimes more valuable than money
There is no royal road for reaching
this desirable quality but goodness OF
heart, sincerity of character, truth and
an honest desire to please are paths
that will lead to it.

EMPoLITENEss IN OUR CHILDREN.
Education is not confined to head
studies. The training of the hand
and the discipline of the heart are
also important. Indeed the forma-
ton of the character is the most es-
sential. In some Catholic countries,
the children are trained in religion,
in virtue. in good manners and in in
dustry, but not so much attention is
given to provide mental instruction
for everybody, as is done in the
United States. In France if you ask
a child a question he will reply, "oui
monsieur" or mon madame" In
America you are lucky if the answer
is plain yes" or mo" The chances
are that it will be ssure," you bet'
or mot on your life" French man
ners are proverbially charming.
Americans are VIGOROUSLY faulty.
Home training must be primarily to
blame. But what about the respon-
sibility of the schools? The perfect
education trains head, heart and
hands. But the chief of these is the
heart, and it is properly trained in the
good home and the Catholic school,
the Sisters that teach therein being
the product of the best homes. The
heart rules the emotions. the conduct,
the conscience, and the destiny of it's
owner.

GHOSTS MET GUESTS.
Halloween Party Thursday Night an
Event of Interest.


An enjoyable affair of the season
was the Halloween party given by
the Dorothy Walton Chapter D. A.
R. Thursday afternoon and evening
Five and ten cents admission was
charged, and the fund raised will go
to educational purposes. Both in
the afternoon and evening the party
was largely attended and thoroughly
enjoyed by all present.
Ghosts met the guests on entering
and led them among other ghosts
and witches. The entire large room
was bower of green. Bamboo and
smiIax were artistically draped over
the walls and pot plants were used
with pleasing effect. Vases of roses
and chysanthemums threw pretty
touch of color. Jack o. lanterns threw
a ghostly light over the whole. Ia
bles. where candy, cakes, sandwiches
and coffee were served, were covered
with crepe paper and decorated with
tiny witches, black cats, owls and JACK
o. lantrns, while ghosts and witches
formed the centerpieces of the ia
bles. Features of interest were fort
une telling, Mr. and Mrs. Tom
Thumb, Little Jack Horner, grab
bag. a magic mirror, and of special
interest was the telling of ghost sto-
ries by a ghost. BObbing for apples
also afforded much merriment.
