MONEY IN FISH WORMS
dFdDd Rapids Man Finds a Ready
Market For Angle Worms
MICHIGAN ANGLERS BUY THEM
They Are Fed On Coffee Grounds and Corn
Meal

The following is from a Gran,
Rapids dispatch to the Saginaw
Courier Herald: Obtain several pooc
angleworms. Place them in an ord
mary pail or granite receptacle with
two double handfuls of earth. Feec
the worms twice daily. Diet-coffes
grounds and cornmeal.
Ihis formula, according to w. Or.
ton Moon, one of the few angleworm
farmers in the United States, is a
sure winner 1t will produce enough
worms in ten days for three fishing
trips; enough in twelve days for ten
trips; enough in fifteen days to ne
cessitate the addition of another pail
held" to the farm.
During the last three years Moon
has used the formula to a profitable
end IN this city, raising large guam
tities OF worms that, each year has
brought him profit of nearly ST. 900
lie has for his customers every angler
IN the city. Moon delivers the worms
IN oiled paper packages, one dozen
to the package for which he receives
ten cents.
Moons farm is one of the curios
tues OF Michigan. 1t consists of 25
pals, post, pans and old crooks.
Each receptacle or field" contains
from 40 to 500 worms. Each worm
is a marvel of grace and plump
beauty.
During the fishing season Moon
goes twice daily TO his farm. and
with a long handled spoon, stirs a
quantity OF coffee grounds and corn
meal with the earth of the fields"
On this diet the worms subsist and
rapidly, furnishing an almost
ineXhaustible supply for Moons COM
mercial purposes
Moon learned TO be an anpleworm
former about ten years ago while
homesteading and prospecting in the
Big Horn basin in Wyoming. One
lay after particularly arduous
stroll with his pick and pan Moon
entered a Shoshone camp, where he
.ound an Indian industriously hol-
owing out short log Of wood. The
sight of a Shoshone doing a menial
ask so startled Moon that he imme-
iiately asked an explanation. The
indian motioned Moon to follow him
o the rear of the camp, where 25
ogs similar to the one on which he
vas working were arranged in an
rderly row. Each log had an OPEN
ng in the top. Through one of the
penings the Indian thrust his hand
nd withdrew it, full of writhinp,
'riggling angleworms.
Heap fine" he announced. "Heap
ne. Catch 'em lot big fish" ,
When Moon returned east he
rought the formula with him, and
Immediately converted it into a paw {
lg proposition when he learned ]

New Irish Cottages.

Returning to his native land after
an exile of twenty or twenty-five years
the enlightened Irish American or Ir-
ish-Australian finds nothing in the
landscape more attractive or more ad-
mirable than the scores Of neatly kept
cottages with their we'll cultivated
plots of ground, their flowers and mod
est ornaments In every variety.
These laborers' dwellings, erected
throughout the country by the boards
of guardians have been great and
permanent agency FOR moral elevation
and social advancement. as we'll as for
physical comfort and we'll being.
Forty thousand such holdings have
ameliorated enormously, have in fact
gone far to transform the conditions
Of life in rural Ireland. These are the
outward and visible expressions of the
new order that has been evolved from
the misery and the gloom of the past
betokening the advent Of brighte
end a happier day for Ireland.

1t suggested that he was removed
from the House of Commons by the
fact that he succeeded to a peerage,
but that is not the case at all. He
left the House of Commons because
he was we'll and truly kicked out at

DisraeIiss War Threat.

One of the Orange Tory threats of
civil war; over forty years ago,
against the disestablishment and dis
endowment Of the Protestant Church
in Ireland, was made by the famous
Benjamin Disraeli, afterwards Earl of
Beaconsfield and Prime Minister Of
England. These were the words deliv-
cred in the House OF Commons in
1869, as quoted recently in the pres
ent House of Commons by John Red
mond:
what will happen? Is it probable
that the Protestants of ireland will
submit without a struggle? Who can
believe it? They will not. What
fear from the policy of the right hon.
gentleman (Mr. Gladstone) is that its
tendency is civil war. Is it natural
that the Protestants of Ireland should
submit without struggle? You know
they will not. That is settled. Is
England, then, to interfere? Are we
have a repetition of the direful history
which, on both sides now, we wish to
forget? Is there to be another battle
of the Boyne, another siege of Derry,
another treaty. of Limerick? These
things are not only possible but prob
able. You are comprising policy
that will inevitably lead to that re-
suit"
But notwithstanding all this tall
threatening and much more of the
same kind by Protestant Ascendancy
firebrands in Ulster, nothing serious
happened. The Gladstone Disestab-
lishment Bill was passed into law,
nevertheless the "Protestants of Ire
land" did Submit without a struggle"
and there wasn't the shadow of civil
war;
1t will be the same when the Home
Rule Bill becomes law. Nothing will
"happen." There will be no civil
war; except, perhaps, some Orange
rowdyism in Belfast, after which Prot
estant Ascendancy in Ireland will
Submit without a struggle"-that is,
will submit to government of Ireland
by Irishmen under which there will be
full freedom and justice for all.

Moaning Of AT Half. Mast.r

Perhaps you have noticed that when
ever u prominent person dies, especial
ly IL he is connected with the govern
ment. the flags on public buildings are
lowered only part of the way up. This
is called "halr-mast" Did you ever
stop to think what connection there
could be between Il flag that was not
properly hoisted and the death of a
great man?
Ever since flags were used in war II
has been the custom to have the fac
OF the superior or conquerinE nation
above that of the inferior or van
quished. When an army found itself
hopclessly beaten 1t hauled its flag
down far enough for the flag Of the
victors to be placed above it on the
same pole. This was a token not only
of submission. but a respect. and II {;
iiaE is not already flying from Tho
mast 1t is raised first to the ton ant
lowered 10 the desired position, ,-,.,,... 4.
In those days when n famous sol
dier died flags were lowered out of re-
spect tn his memory. The custom lon,
ago passed from purely military usag,
to public life of all kinds. the flag fly
ing at halfmast being a sign that tn,
dead man was worthy OF universal
respect. The space left above 1t is TO
the flag OF the great conqueror of all
the Angel Of Death."--New Zealan,
Tablet.

How to Rest,

This Is the more regrctable, as to
understand how to rest is OF more
importance than to know how to work.
The latter can easily be learned. The
former il takes years to learn, and
some people never succeed in learning
the art of resting. 1t is simply a
change of scenes and activities.
Loai1ng may not be resting. Sleep
ing is not always resting. Sitting
down for days with nothing to do is
not restful. A. change Is needed to
bring into play a different set Of fac
ulties and to turn the life into n new
channel
The man who works hard finds his
best rest in playing hard. The man
burdened with care nnds relief in
something that is active, yet free from
responsibility.
Learn to rest like a child, with per-
feet relaxation; and. when working
cultivate a reposeful activity by avoid
ing all unnecessary strain. by using
only that portion of the body required
to perform the special work at hand.
When through with your days work
forget it. and let go OF each muscle
allowing no tension in the body. anf
resting with your whole soul, "oper
to the beauty of nature as we'll as tC
the unity of all life"

What We Have.

eve have our historians OF real
worth, men Of laborious research
Gasquets, Stevensons, Pollens, Bede,
Gamms, Moyes, Janssens and others
too numerous to mention. But the
world ignores them; no self-sufficient
journalist ever calls them scholarly,
learned or profound. We have had our
writer's who, had they been against us,
would have won fame. Where is
there such an author on ethics and
natural right in the nationalist host
as Tapparelli, rcconstructing with
rigorous logic the scholastic system
of ethics, to whom his successors
though not agreeing with him aloso-
lutely, acknowledge themselves to owe
so much? Where can one find
amongst our enemies such philosoph-
| ers as the o-Thomists kleutgen,
lAiberatore, Zizliara, Cornoldi, to men,
tion only those who have passed from
this world? The Church has amongst
Its faithful sons intellects OF the high
est order and the cure for RATIONAL
ism amongst it's children today is to
study their works. not to scott at
them.
"A final word and we have done with
this detestable snobbishness. Catholic
writer's in general, especially in our
country, fall under this ignorant os-
tracism. How many Catholics, we
wonder, have read The Golden Rose
for example, Come Rack Come
Y Reore!' or The Light Of the ision 2
~ A. Fss these onght to be Gakheifc best
sellers;' and, incidentally, they have
| not their superiors as works of fic-
ton among the Six best-sellers' of
the last twenty years. 1t is high time
for Catholics to come to- Living in
an environment certainly not Catholic
| rather anti Ca Catholic-we are apt to
take on the complexion of the time;
We are prone to niisprise and overlook
ourselves. But the Church today, and
Catholic men and women today, as in
every age of our history, in whatever
field of activity they enter, are maxi
ing high and shining marks upon the
/, world around them.''

SUFFRAGETTESR ROW
ON GRANDSTANDS
Women Decide Not to Take
Parade Past White House
If Route Is Changed.

The suffrage parade Will not pass the
court of honor on Pennsylvania ave-
nue. nor the White House. as was origi-
naIly intended. This decision was
reached today when it became known
that contractors who erected the stands
on Lafayette square and in front or
the White House were selling seats for
the pageant after having refused their
use to the women.
Application for use of these seats was
refused, 1t is alleged, because the con-
tractors feared the stands and seats
would be injured by the pageant sight
scorers and it would require consider
able time and expense to repair them
for March 4. In the face of this 1t
was learned today. the women say, that
the seats were being sold.
This change is easily made" Mrs.
Helen II. Gardener said today, because
the official grandstand for the pageant
is al Sherman square. The Presidential
party is to be there
