A NEW TRIBE.

During the past ten years the
Church has doubled the number of
her converts in Africa. The zeal, de-
votion and self-sacrifice of the mis-
sionaries are recognized by the ma
tive chiefs, who frequently seek out
the missionaries and beg them to es-
tabIish themselves amongst their peo-
pie. Our priests are active amongst
the people, but, unfortunately, there
are not enough missionaries to go
around, and frequently a missionary
has more work than he can attend
to. In those cases his catechists are
a great help to him. They look after
the local mission while the priest es-
tablishes his headquarters in CEN
trail spot and visits the various out
missions in turn.
One of our missionaries writes from
Nigeria that in a recent missionary
journey the chiefs of twenty different
towns asked him to visit them. He
went and found everywhere new
people, tribe with which he had pre-
viously had no acquaintance. They
knew nothing about God, but were
disposed to open their hearts to the
Gospel II was" he states, very
much moved by the good dispositions
of that poor ignorant people who were
ready to build for us churches, schools
and dwelling houses if we would only
agree to live amongst them and give
them teachers for their children. l
realized, too, that it must be now or
never, for the non-Catholics were do
ing their best to persuade the people
that we were bad prophets and that
they alone were teaching the truth
and the Gospel. Upon receiving my
report our Rev. Father Project decid-
ed to open a mission amongst these
people under the protection of Our
Lady of Mount Carmel. Everything
is now ready. Our dwelling house is
up and blessed, and we are about to
open nine schools which will give us
total of $4,000 boys daily under
instruction. The great drawback is
the fewness of priests. We are only
two and there is work here for foul
Fathers. Perhaps next year we will
receive help from home"

the various High School of the Islands,
the Normal School, and the Philippine
University. These are to be the flu
ture teachers in the Islands, or they
are to lead in the various professional
or commercial pursuits.
The more advanced students of the
Islands congregate in Manila, where
the Normal and High School, and the
Government University, with it's de-
partments of law, medicine, engineer
ing and arts are located. Eight years
ago an effort was made to provide the
young men and women in attendance
at these schools with religious instruc-
ton. Besides daily Catechism classes
to various groups of students, there
are weekly sodality meetings and con-
fessions; and on Sunday mornings
Mass and sermon in different churches.
Archbishop Harry has repeatedly
pronounced this to be the most i'm
portant work in the Islands today.
It's success and it's promise depend
upon the fact that the Filipino has
not entirely lost his faith. The tree
has been shattered by the bolt or
broken by the violence of the storm,
but it has not been uprooted. 1t will
grow again, if guarded and nurtured,
and will flourish with it's former
strength and grandeur.

Thou Shalt Not COVet. +"

Often as Mrs. Digby motored past
the little green-shuttered house where
the blacksmith lived, she would turn
her fair face enviously to listen to the
shouts of childish laughter that came
from the hedged-in garden where the
little ones played.
The smithy had seven children, and
had much ado to feed and clothe and
bring them up on his none too large
earnings. And Mrs. Digby, the wife
of the squire of Huntsville, possessed
of everything that the heart of wom-
an is supposed to desire riches,
beauty, rank, and jewels that had
excited society itself, envied the poor
man with his whitening hair and
stopped shoulders -envied every cot
tage woman she saw with babe at
her breast, because she was childless.
She had got into the way lately OF

A LETTER FROM THE VICAR
APOSTOLIC OF CENTRAL
TONkIN.

The Vicar Apostolic of Central
Tonkin, Mgr. Munagorri, o. P, is the
writer of the following letter:
1--WE are anxiously watching our
rice crop, which is about ready to be
harvested, lest any disaster befall.
The Observatory signals that terrible
typhoons are sweeping over the China
Sea, and we are praying to be spared
from this affliction.
Another danger threatened a few
days ago. Millions of caterpillars
were discovered in the rice fields and
had already begun to devour the
leaves of the plants. The loss of the
entire harvest was expected when
one morning, behold the caterpillars
had become butterflies and were
soaring away on their newly acquired
wings. You can imagine our relief.
do not think, however, that our
Christians are going to be Tapped in
abundance Alas, this country is so
overpopulated, that even in the years
when famine does not prevail, three
quarters of the inhabitants have only
one meal of rice day. The remain
der of the food consists of potatoes
mixed with herbs.
Reports shows that we have now
100000 Catholics, with about 100000
communions during twelvemonth.
This is gratifying, but we are sur
rounded by 1000, OO0, infidels. To cope
with this vast horde I should have at
least 800 priests and l can secure only
1913. The education of native clergy
is imperative and l trust some aid can
be given our seminarians in order that
they may be enabled to complete
their studies in large numbers"

said one of the women who had been
listening to her Terrible ill she's

There's no good to be got taking a
child from his own" said another
solemnly. IT'S the way of the rich
to want what their money hasn't sent

All this was carefully kept from the
mother. The most inveterate gossip
in the place would have suffered tor
lures rather than let her know what
was so freely circulated. But she
knew, she felt it all, the intense love
of the mother could understand.

Receipts at Americas.
New York Cotton.

New York, Sept 23.-There was Il
renewal of active buying at the open
ing of the cotton market this morning
First prices were IL to II points
higher in response to relatively strong
Liverpool cables, frost reports, cover
ing of shorts and trade demand. Real
| izing was heavy and caused some ir-
regularity but offerings were readily
absorbed and active months soon show
ed net gains of II to 20 points.
The western belt forecast for I'M
settled and colder weather, with show
ers or local rains, stimulated demand
during the middle of the morning,
and active months sold 20 to q
points net higher. Realizing checked
the advance at this level and caused
reactions of 8 to 10 points toward
midday.
Estimated receipts today, $4,000
bales.
After selling off to within or 8
points of yesterdays closing figures
on a rather more favorable weekly
report than expected, the cotton mar
ket steadied up again on reports of q
better spot demand, rumors of a more
favorable turn in Washington legis-
lation and covering.
Prices around o'clock were IS i
10 points net higher.

LAUGH AND GROW FAT

miles, and miles of smiles. and happy
laughter from innocent children and
from lively grown folk.
There must needs be groans of an
guish and cries of pain as long as
death and sickness are in the world
but there is no needs of growls out
side the dogs kennel After while
even the dogs may learn to give alarm
by pressing an electric button instead
of by growing.
The one who growls at the in
nocent prattle of a playful baby is
fool. The one who giggles at the net-
vousnese nj an old person is a sim
pleton. Fortunate for this old world
there are not a great many fools and
simpletons of this type.
The man who has forgot how 20
laugh is to be pitied. So also is the
woman whose wrinkles nave not been
disturbed by a smile these many years.
There are various types of laughter.
Some is so noisy as to be unfit for
polite society, but the loud "Whah-
whah!" of the cornfield negro is pre-
ferable to the wheezy performance OF
the man who is SO stingy with his HUI
NOR that his laugh sounds like rinsins
four-ounce bottle.
When to laugh and when not G
laugh is sometimes a serious question
But the world always has need OF
those who can appreciate a humorous
situation and who can enjoy, witt
his companions and associates, a goo]
hearty, healthy, innocent laugh.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1913-09-24

The wise Solomon said there is q
time to laugh and a time to weep
There are two classes of people who
seem never to have found this or.
the automatic crouch
The everlasting giggler deserves
both kicks and sympathy. He is moth
ing but a bunch of funny bones. If he
reads of some one falling down a stair
and suffering a fracture or a sprain, lie
giggles. If he reads of another person
getting broken neck from fall down
that same stair, he explodes win
laughter Poor fool! He would not
be safe at a memorial exercise.
The constitutional crouch would not
smile at an Irishman's observation OF
womans rights, and he wouldn't laugh
if his ribs were tickled with rubber
knuckles. This crouch deserves no
sympathy. He needs to have his liver
regulated.
Laughing is said to be catching. A
merry laugh, at the right time, in the
right place, and under proper circum-
stances, will communicate cheerful
ness to it's hearers and like a pebble
on the surface of a lake will send riD-
pies of merriment to dreary hearts.
The growl is also contagious. It
gets itself repeated by sinners and
Christians until it finds its way around
the world.
The Chinese have a proyerb: He
who keeps a shop should smile That's
the idea! The world needs smiles,
