THE "BREAD AND CIRCUS"
SPIRIT.

In his address at the Western Cath
Ollie Banquet in Winnipeg, Bishop Fal-
Ion indicated an important service
which Catholic citizens should render
society. There is very distinct mod
ern tendency, said the Bishop, to re-
vert to the pagan idea of the omnipo-
tent State; to exalt the claims of the
State at the expense not only of those
of the individual but at the expense
of the natural rights of man. And
this tendency has been, perhaps un-
consciously, greatly aided by Protes-
tant clergymen who find their influ-
ence over individual lives almost at
the vanishing point. They would ex-
tirpate evil by legislation and make
men virtuous by Act of Parliament.
This exaltation of the State over the
rights of the individual has so lowered
the ideal of citizenship that at times
it painfully suggests the cry of the
decadent Roman populace to those
who governed-Panem ct Circenes-
bread and circuses; provide us with
food and amuse us.

HAMLET ON PURE FOOD.

with Apologies to Shakespeare.)
Pure food or impure food; that is the
question:
Whether it's better in the stomach to
The filth and poison of outrageous
packers,
Or to pass law against their evil
practices,
And, by opposing, end them. To live,
to eat;
Enough; and by eating to say we fill
Life with the thousand exultant joys
That wholesome food assures, tbs
contamination
Devoutly to be wish'd. To live to eat;
To eat; perchance to die; aye, there's
the rub;
For in our poison-pack'd food what
death may Turk,
When we, with feasting would be
merry,
Must give us pause. There are prod
ucts
That make calamity of our great &C.
caSions,
Fill our consomme with microbes,
Our beef with drugs, deadly preserva-
tives.
The pangs of vile infection become
our fate.
While insolent packers grin and
pocket
The pelf the public pays to plumber
Why, better one himself should his
quietus make
With bare bodkin! Who would foul
flesh eat
To groan and writhe in a germs fero-
cious grip,
When he might from germs make
quick escape
And dwell in glad immunity from pain
BY simply making and enforcing law?
But Incidence makes weaklings of us
all
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied Ger with the pale cast of
sloth,
And portly packers of vast wealth and
nerve
With tricksy bugs do fill US up,
And make us food for worms.

LOVE OF THE HORSE.

1t was a custom of the great saint
of Assist to speak of the birds as his
little brothers and sisters. In the
story of this st. Francis we frequent
ly hear such phrases as Brother
Fish," Brother Hawk Brother
OK" Among the earliest acts of his
self-renunciation was the selling of
his horse to provide the money need
ed to restore a neglected sane
tuary. Loving as he did every living
thing, it requires no stretch of the
imagination for us to hear him, as he
parted with his faithful servant, say
ing, Goodbye, Brother Horse!"
No doubt with the majority Of men
the strongest tie between them and
the animal world is that which has
bound them to the dog. Naturally
less intelligent than the dog, and far
less demonstrative in signs of attach
ment to his master, the horse still
has won for himself a very noble
place in the heart and life of man.
In the poem, familiar to some Of us
in our schooldays, ''The Arabs Fare
we'll to His Horse" there is sounded
cord that has stirred to tears more
than one boy and man whose love
for the horse is part of his very
life.
It's born in you or it's left out OF
you. There are those who care nc
more for great piece of music, OF
for a canvas whose colors a Raphael
might have mixed than they do fol
the wild sweep of the wind or an ad
vertisement on billboard. The

Sister, how can you always smile
in sorrow as well as in happiness, in
strong moments, and during time of

"But l have never heard you laugh
aloud; you smile, but you never

from outside circumstances. Joy comes
from God"

were weeping at the beside of your

those who merit it,

HENRY CLAY ON A RELIGIOUS
VOCATION.

In these enlightened days of relig-
quently denounced as dens of vice and
crime, by people who receive all their
information concerning these institu-
tions from the Shiny literature with
which this country is at present flood
ed But what chiefly distresses the
souls of these sentimentalists is that in
these conventual dungeons there are
multitudes of charming creatures who,
in the exuberance of their youthful
emotion, had perhaps, years ago,
bound themselves by irrevocable
vows, and are now pining away in sor-
row and sadness, YEARLY looking
through the bars for the moment when
some gallant knight will come to let
them out. The nuns themselves would
be much amused at such diagnosis
of the condition of their hearts. 1t
might surprise these brave followers
of st. George that the great Henry
Clay entertained different opinion on
this matter A granddaughter of the
famous Wing leader entered a con-
vent in 1S49. Mr.. Clay wrote the fol-
lowing letter to her, which proves how
broad and liberal a man he was:
Ashland, October q, 1849.
"My Dear Granddaughter:
81 received and read attentively
your letter of the 18th inst. My peru
sal of it touched and affected me
greatly, as it did your grandma. 1t
was full of feeling and sentiment so
just, conceived by such a Christian
spirit and marked by such affectionate
attachment that we read it with deep
est interest. While we could not dis
approve, we were seriously and sor-
rowfully concerned by your resolution
to adopt the veil and dedicate the rest
of your life to the service of God in a
convent. We would not disapprove,
because you say that your determine.
ton has been deliberately formed, and
because you are solemnly convinced
that it will be conducive to your pres

ent and future happiness. But it is
a grave and serious step, resembling,
in the separation from your friends
and relations which it involves, so
much the awful separation which
death itself brings about, that we
could not but feel intense distress.
Your happiness, my dear grandchild,
has ever been an object OF intense
anxiety and solicitude to us. If it is
to be promoted by the execution of
the purpose you have in view, l would
not, if l could, dissuade you from it,
have no prejudice against the Cath
Ollie religion. On the contrary, l sin
cerely believe that Catholics who are
truly religious are as sure of eternal
happiness in another world as the
most pious Professionals. All that l
hope is that you will not act on any
sudden impulse or ill-considered or
immature resolution, but that you
will deliberately, anu again and again
examine your own heart and consult
your best judgment before you con-
summate your intention. Write me
at Washington, and in the event of
your taking the veil, let me know
what provision exists for your sup
port and comfort, and whether and
what pecuniary aid may be proper or
expedient from your friends. Adieu,
my dear granddaughter, may God en-
tighten, guide and direct you; and if
we never meet again in this life, may
we meet in the regions of eternity,
and there join my beloved daughter,
your lamented mother. Such, also,
are the prayers of your grandma.
Your affectionate grandfather,

symphony, the painting, awaken no
response. To multitudes the dog and
the horse are in the same category
as the pig and the goat. They are
simply animals. With others since
their earliest remembrance, there
has lived an unchanging hunger for
the ownership and companionship of
horse and dog. They would go with
out their meals, deny themselves a
score of other pleasures at any time
if only they could satisfy this hunger.
There are men who dream about their
horses when away from them as they
dream of absent friends. This is the
way they were born. A motor car
can no more take the place with them
of the horse than the memory OF a
fireless cooker could supplant the re-
membrance of the old home kitchen
and the loving mother who prepared
the meals. 1t is this inherent love
for the horse that burns in many a
mans blood that makes him smile at
the prophecy of a horseless age.
The motor car will take it's place as
permanent feature in the work and
pleasure of men, but SO long as hui
man nature remains the horse will
abide as one of the joys and satisfac-
tory delights of mankind. When the
railway supplanted the stage coach
no remark was more common than
1.-The day of the horse is done" His
best day many of us believe is yet to
be. In spite of our friends the motor
car manufacturers, the horse is com
ing back. Never were there so many
in the world as now. Not few who
gave them up years ago are buying
them again.

Irees That Grow Meat.

Meat is still going up in price. but
this fact need not worry housewives
much longer, for n new food product
has been discovered by some agrcul-
tural experts.
This new product which it is claim
ed will help to solve the question of the
increasing cost of living, is fruit tree
called the Avocado, growing in MeNic"
The fruit of the tree is pear shaped
says Pearson's Weekly, but the queer
part about it is that it is composed OF
the substances which are to be found
in meat.
1t contains about 20 per cent of fat
and many other ingredients of great
food value and it is said that one good
sized meat" pear is quite sufficient tc
make a meal for the average man.
Some experts have grown quite en-
thusiastic about it: it is far superior tC
the banana, they say, and is. in fact
the most valuable fruit known"
The natives of Mexico live almost
entirely on the Avocado. and il is hop
ed that with a sufficient supply of the
trees the world could do away WITH
meat entirely.
If this does happen. how vegetarians
will welcome it,
The reason why the fruit is so little
| known at present is because it is grown
nowhere on large scale. what few
trees there are grow round the huts o1
the natives, where they flourish will

CHAPTER ".
No Human Voice.

Carefulness regarding fire in the
woods is a most vital point. nave
the greatest admiration for the splen-
did forest conservation movement
which has meant such great protec-
ton TO the natural world.
l deplore the inexcusable careless
ness of some men who build fires at
random in the woods, thereby destroy
ing valuable timber. If these offend-
ers would only stop to consider what
a tree would do for them they would
be far more careful with their fires.
The tree shelters man. 1t gives him
bark and wood for utensils. 1t offers
warmth and even food. Just as hre is
a blessing, so are the trees of the for
est. However, the blessing of fire can
be turned into a curse very quickly
through thoughtlessness and deliber-
ate neglect 1t is a good servant, but
a bad master.
When l go over in my mind that
eventful life in the wilderness | sup
pose could have pulled through some
way without the aid of fire. but know
this that if l had been obliged to get
along without it l would have come
back nothing but skin and bones l
would actually have suffered. People
who look at fire with fear do not real
ize what it really means. 1t is one of
mankinds greatest blessings.
Altogether during the two months
had perhaps six or seven fires. which
l was forced to build for protection.
l would bank them and keep them 60
