A Boys ADVICE.

Sometimes it takes a boy to put
things plainly and tersely. l once
heard from the lips of a boy one of
the most sensible pieces of advice

as it will suffice to say that question
arose one day as to which of two
orders should be obeyed, certain
person having received from two in
authority slightly different instruc-
tions in regard to some work to be
done. The matter was of no import
ance, and it was merely in fun that
this perplexed person hesitated be-
tween the two orders. But the boy
solved the problem, and he could not
have done better if it had been, the
most serious matter in the world.
mind the highest boss!" he called
out, hearty of voice and lusty of lung.
mind the highest boss, and you'll al
ways keep out of trouble"
Many time these words have come
into my mind. Are they not worth
remembering? They will fit many oc-
casions and help US in many de-
cisions in life Above all, they should
admonish us to mind God in pref
erence to all others.

Side Table.

Side Table.
Serving plates, silver, carving sets,
small trays, table scraper and tray.
Space for soup tureen cover, vege-
table dishes, gravy boat, etc. Have
at hand a soft napkin and heavy
cloth in case of accident.
RULES FOR SERVING.
There are two styles of service:
Russian is more formal; serving
from the side or away from the table.
English is less formal; served from
the table.
The unit for setting the table is
the cover, i. e., the plate and utensils
for one person, % or 80 inches should
be allowed for each person if possible.
The duties of a waitress include
setting the table, taking care of the
silver and glass and busting the din
ing room.
A nice way of serving is to pass
the large dishes in the hand, with a
folded napkin between the hand and
the dish. Small dishes, like cream
and sugar, olives, etc., are passed on
small tray.
There are two ways of serving a
formal dinner:
1. The more formal way is to
serve each course from the pantry,
neatly arranged on individual plates
(1) Take it to the right of each guest
on a tray or napkin in left hand and
with right hand place it upon service
plate, until after soup course, which
is removed with the service plate
(2) Always have plate before each
guest until dessert. Remove from the
right with the left hand and place the
following course with the right hand
also from the right.
Guests should be served in rotation
beginning alternately at the right anc
left of host and hostess, going in op
posite directions for each successive
course.
2. The other and more simple way
of serving, is to have the course arts
tically arranged and cut in small
pieces on a large dish or platter &C
companied by the necessary serving
spoon or fork, and put on napkin
or tray, or if too large held in thu
hands carefully, and offered to tn,
left of each guest; of course, afte,
plates. etc., for the course has beel
placed. To remove each course. wal
until everyone has finished, then tax,

from the right, place on tray. Do no
remove more than one cover at
time. 1t is not good form to pile on

Bearing a glede came swiftly, and as
cended
When it had touched his lips; the
scent also
Passed with the harping of the wind,

In naught but stars and snow.

Laid down the twybill and the sword

In battle-measures of the Viking

Rude glees, and harping, and the noise

With lights along the snow.

No shape was there; naught save a

1.-THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT"

"Mr. Conductor" said little boy as
he pulled at a gilt-buttoned sleeve,
please tell me story"
BLESS my life!" exclaimed the con-
ductor of train No. SIS. The train had
just pulled out, and as there was a
long run without stop the tired con-
ductor had dropped into a back seat
to rest bit when Louis came up and
asked for a story.
"Bless my life!" said Captain Sam,
Il don't know a story to my name,
except Here is the house that Jack
built ;"
Don't tell me that" answered the
little boy. 81 know that myself" and
he began to rattle off:
This is the house that Jack built,
This is the rat that lived in the house
that Jack built;
This is the cat that caught the rat
that"
Stop right there!" said the con-
ductor; that reminds me of some
thing On my last trip east, as l went
through one of the coaches to look at
tickets I found a little girl about your
size sitting by herself.
"'Tickets,' 1 said without thinking.
Mamma has EN- she said, AN
she's gone to get a d'ink of water.
But won't you please take my orange
to that little girl back there with the
red handkerchief on her head? Her
mamma has forgot to give her any
Il looked for the little girl with the
red handkerchief and saw poor
woman with five children They didn't
have OH much clothes, they didn't look
as if they had had much to eat, but
nobody was paying any attention to
them.
Maybe your mamma won't like
you to give away your orange said
'The little girl opened her eyes very
wide, and said: Why, cap'n, my
mamma loves me to give things
"'All right said; and went back
to the little party and gave the
orange; and this said in loud tone
of voice: This is from a little CIR
whose mamma just loves her to give
things At that ever so many moth
ers pricked up their ears, and pres
emily l saw another little girl bring {
box of lunch to the poor children.
"'Ah,' said 1 to myself, this is like
that old song about "the house tina
Jack built "This is the cat" Whe1
got that far a lady pulled a pretty
little cap out of her bag, and said
Won't you let your little girl weal
this tam-o'-shanter?
Il went on singing easy to myself
Where is the dog that worried the
cat that killed the rat, that lived il
the house that Jack built.
And, sure enough, here was a boy
giving something out of his pocket

SIR THOMAS MORE.
The Great Chancellor Whom Henry
Viii Sent to Death.

Sir Thomas More, who held the
exalted Office of Lord Chancellor of
England, was executed like COM
mon felon by the murderous Henry
VIII for refusing to be party to
his infamous designs. He was born
February Z, 147S, and was executed
July 7th, 1886, at the age of fifty
seven years. He had succeeded to
the Lord CHARACTERISTIC in 1929, after
the fall of Wolsey, and in this capacity
he was asked by Henry for an official
opinion favoring his divorce from his
lawful wife.
More constantly refused to lend his
authority to any such guilty ends,
and finally rendered his resignation
rather than consent to the kings de-
mands. From that time he was a
marked man, and Henry was deter
mined to find some pretext to send
him to the scaffold. In 1884 he was
called upon to swear allegiance to
the Act of Succession for securing
the throne to the offspring of Anne
Boleyn, thus disinheriting the right
full heir, Mary, the daughter of Cath
crime
More refused to be party to the
scheme, and for this was arrested
and put in the Tower on a charge
of misprision of treason, and kept
there for over a year. After repeated
attempts to intimidate or ensnare him,
he was finally brought to the bar of
the High Commission on the charge
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1913-02-08

of attempting to deprive the king of
his title of Supreme Head of the
Church. On this absurd charge he
was condemned and ordered to be ex-
ecuted.
On the morning of his execution he
dressed in his most elaborate cos
tune, preserved his composure to the
last, and, as the fatal stroke was
about to be given by the headsman,
he signed for moments delay while
he moved aside his beard, saying:
"Pity that should be cut that has not
committed treason"
Among the works of More, the most
famous is that entitled utopia" be-
ing an account of an imaginary re-
public in an island discovered by
Amerigo Vespucci, a companion of
whom is supposed to tell More the
particulars of the system of govern
ment. The work showed the great
Chancellor to be far i'll advance of his
age in his conception of government
and free institutions. But his talent
and his integrity did not save him
from the vengeance of the brutal des-
pot to whom England is indebted for
the so-called Reformation.
More was a sterling Catholic: sim
pie, pious, playful, loyal and uncom-
promising. He left his mark on his
times in more ways than one.

IN TWO WORDS.

A Catholic soldier, writing from a
station in India where his regiment is
in environments at present, gives some
idea of how numerous the Catholics
are in the British army when he says
that eight hundred men march to the
Catholic church on Sunday morning
Most of these soldiers are Irish, and
so there is a st. Patrick's League
which, says the soldier, has many
regulations. The chaplain, however
showed knowledge of human nature
when he declared after reading out
all those rules to the men that they
could be boiled down into two words

"THE CLIMATE OF
WESTERN CANADA"
AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN CAN.
ADA'S IMMIGRATION.

A letter dated February 2, 1913, pub
lished in Peoples Voice" column in
a Swedish paper, while dealing with
other conditions in Canada, such as
grain yield, social conditions, ETC.,
says: I'VE have had fine weather UNI
til New Years, when some snow fell
and 1t was cold for few days, but
during the past few days we have
lovely weather again." The writer,
who lives near Davidson. Sask., says
they got from 30 to 35 bushels Of wheat
per acre, 60 bushels of oats and about
20 bushels of fax. All homesteads are
taken in the vicinity, but wild land
can be bought at reasonable figures.
Word from Alberta gives the infor-
nation that up to the 22nd Of February
there were eighty-four and quarter
hours Of bright sunshine, but that did
not come up to the corresponding
month of 1912, when the meteorolog-
ical department registered 100 hours
for the 20 days.
February was exceptionally fine all
through, but 1912 went one better. and
was a glorious month. However, TAX
ing the weather generally throughout
the northern hemisphere. February has
been marked by serious and severe
disturbances resulting in heavy storms,
bad weather and low temperatures in
many other parts.
The coolest temperature this week
| occurred on Tuesday morning. when
the thermometer registered 23.5 below,
and the coolest Wednesday was IL be-
| low. During the last fortnight of
February and 81 hours of bright sun
shine spread its glorious rays over
Edmonton, and this out Of possible
total of about ten hours is something
| to talk about.
