AS THE DO.

1t was a very pretty little new
house, and neatly furnished, but
there was a terrible tout" in it,
thought Cousin Clare, as she accom-
panied it's mistress on a tour Of in
spection. The books in the small Ii
brary were mainly novels of a season,
in gaudy covers. Yes, there was an
Encyclopedia, but it vas a VIGOROUSLY
bigoted and unreliable one; there
we're ''sets" of Scott, Dickens, Thack-
cray and Hawthorne.
"Why don't you get the Catholic
Encyclopedia" asked Cousin Clare,
with a relatives privilege.
ooh, and have it here, where every
one who comes to see John on bust
ness in the evening could see it," ex-
claimed Mrs. Barr.
They have two sets of it at Har-
vard,' declared the cousin.
ooh, never!" cried the hostess.
"I've seen them" answered this can
did relative, with conviction. Every
newspaper of any consequence has
the Catholic Encyclopedia in its Ii
brary."
"WeIl, 1 think it is bad taste for
us private persons to make our re.
ligion so conspicuous. You know
many of our friends don't like it."
"But you have to put up with what
ever they choose to display in the
way of books offensive to your con.
victions, and of pictures repulsive to
your moral sense"
Mrs. Barr was just thoughtful
enough to bite her lips on the re
joinder: "Oh, they are different
meaning that "they' are superior and
privileged; but she feared to start
a discussion with Cousin Glare who
had a most unpleasant fashion of al
ways coming out ahead.
st suppose you will think / ought
to have some religious pictures down
stairs" she said again, somewhat
deprecatingly, "but that also, looks
too much like advertising oneself"
Cousin Clare who read the poor
shallow, little nature easily, was
merciful. There were pictures Of
fruit and game in the dining room;
pictures of the children at different
ages, and large framed photographs
of Mr.. and Mrs. Barr, with the con
! ventional bronzed busts of Shakes
peare, Homer and Virgil on top o.
the bookcases, in the library. In the
drawing room were some indetermi
nate though rather pretty landscapes
SLOWLY framed and with gold mats
and a few pictures of pagan sugges
tiveness, from which Cousin Glare
looked away impatiently.
"But have some sacred pictures
in the bedrooms" said Mrs. Barr
in a ~placating tone, displaying in hel
own room a very fine copy of the
Sistine Madonna in oils over the man
tel.
"This is quite the most valuable
and beautiful picture in your house,
said the relative. But there were nj

"THE FAITH"
Our unappreeiated Wealth.

Under the caption "A story with a
Moral" Columbia writing to the Cath
olic Record of London, Ontario, says:
"We we're sitting at dinner in the
dining-room of one of the summer
hotels on the beautiful Muskoka lakes
one evening recently, when two
gentlemen and a lady entered and
took seats at the table, and presently,
without much ceremony, we were en-
gagged in conversation, during the
course of which l learned that the
lady and gentleman, both prominent
residents of a big American city, be-
longed to the great army of Agnostics,
whereas the younger man, their
adopted son, was a Catholic. 1t was
in no boastful spirit the elder gentle
man confessed his want of any definite
faith. 1t was something of which he
often felt the need, he admitted, and
he felt drawn towards Catholicism, he
said, but the vagaries of Professionalism
had extinguished in him all belief in
the supernatural"
Next morning we said Mass at 6
o'clock in the little tourist chapel ano
were naturally surprised to find our
agnostic friends amongst the congre-
CATION We took it as a matter of
course, that the Catholic tourists, not
being able to hear Mass on Sunday,
should rise in the small hours of a
weekday morning to assist at the
Holy Sacrifice, but that an unbeliever
should deprive himself of a certain
amount of sleep to do so we consid-
cred SO remarkable that we alluded to
it when we met again at breakfast.

would not shake that boys faith for
all the money in Chicago. We went
for his sake to encourage him."

AT

Softly the light of evening falls,
AS feebly sinks the suns last ray;
From yonder hedge a sparrow calls
Its requiem to the dying day.
A dim white mist descends upon
The corn-felds stretching like a sea;
The farmer, with his labors done,
Behind his team walks ~leisurely.
And indistinct against the gloam,
Adown the road, a barefoot lad
Urges the tagging cattle home,
And whistles, for his heart is glad.
Now from the distant village tower,
The clocks clear strokes are waiting
nigh;
The daylight's past-it is the hour
When sleep finds many a dropping
eye.
Sweet tranquil hour of eventide!
The stars-the lamps of heaven
shine;
Let mortals put their woes aside,
And feel the peace that's surely
thine.
From Shamrock and Roses. bD James Hau.

H CHILDREN's HOUR.
THE BUTTERFLY.

In the beginning, when the world was
fashioned,
After the dawns and sunsets had
been made,
After the hills had been adorned with
verdure,
After the meadow flowers had been
arrayed,-
God, looking round, saw, scattered
all about Him,
Gray bits of beauty-scraps of sun
set gold,
Shreds of blue sky and specks of
wild-rose petals,
Numberless colors of a wealth un-
told.
He smiled and quickly gathered up
the fragments,
Watching them shape themselves be-
fore His eyes.
Then, opening the starry door of
heaven,
He sent to earth a flock of butter
flies.

AS TO THE OLD.

Deal very gently with those who are
on the downhill of life. Your own
time is coming to be where they now
are. You, too, are stepping forward"
Soothe the restlessness of age by
amusement, by consideration, by nom
interference, and by allowing plenty
of occupation to fall into the hands
that long for it. But let it be of their
own choosing, and cease to order their
way for them as though they were
children.
