There is no romance in walking home
from church with a youth whom she
remembers seeing once upon u time
with a jam-beSmeared face and knick-
erbOckers sadly in need of patching
at both knees, to say nothing of ell
bows out of his jacket, and freckles.
People seldom forget ludicrous pic
ture of that kind.
A girl who has known a boy from
the cradle up, knows pretty well what
he is going to talk about before he
opens his lips. There are few, if any,
subjects he can introduce which she
is not quite as well informed about as
he is. If he attempts to talk seriously
to her there is no responsive chord in
her heart to touch. He finds-love-
making, uphill business.
Let a handsome young stranger
come to town, and the interest Of all
the manageable maidens is aroused
at once. They ask of each other "who
is he" and they cOgitate over whether
he is married or single. II he Is for
tunate enough to secure an introduc-
ton to one esteemed family in which
there are young girls, his social sue
cess is assured. Little affairs are CIV
en- for him that he may meet the most
desirable girls in the community. Ev-
cry door is thrown open to him and the
young women vie with each other to
make his calls pleasant and them
selves pleasing. If he is fairly good
conversationalist the girls vote him
splendid company" his fiattery fall
ing upon willing ears.
He has no difficulty in cutting out
the diffident town beau. He can dance
like professional, sing in way, that
makes feminine hearts flutter, put a
world of meaning in lingering glance,
or clinging handclasp. He selects the
prettiest girl to make love to, but she
must have the wealthiest of family.
The poor but lovely young girl he
passes by. He has no taste for love
In cottage.
When he has made such quick time
in his moving that his betrothal to the
wealthiest girl in town is announced
in few weeks after he has met her,
the young man who has known and
loved her all his life, but had not the
courage to propose marriage, begins
to sit up and take notice. He wonders
what the girls in the home town of
this paragon think of him and If he
Is as popular with them. After a per-
sonal investigation, he discovers the
man bears too sporty reputation in
his home town for the young women to
extend him an entree into their homes.
That a girls fair name would suffer
IL she were seen talking with him,
or accompanying him to any place of
amusement, that he will work only I'M
til he can accumulate a few dollars
with which to try his luck here and
there heiress hunting. It Is a kindly
impulse which prompts receiving an
agreeable stranger into ones home on
friendly terms. II he proves worthy
Of every confidence, well and good.
When he asks for daughters heart
and hand, 1t will not do the least bit
of harm to do little investigating,
quietly. If he bears an excellent rep
utation in his home town it's a big
feather in his cap. If he Is all that he
purports to be, he will court investiga-
ton, instead Of showing resentment at
a doubt.

The Holy Name of Mary Church.
although always very popular and al
ways in the lead in the way OF great
celebrations, is about TO set a new
mark in the matrimonial field. Never
were there so many marriages at one
time as shall be celebrated in the
next few days. The festivities started
last night with the Durgan-Hanley
marriage. Next will be the Win
gerter-Voegtlin, Thompson-Boudreau'
ellis Foucha-McAnespy and last, but
least, the Bond-Behrman.
All these will be elaborate affairs.
For the Thompson-Boudreau nuptlals
special decorations will be erected by
Reyes the florist.
II goes without saying that the
Bond-Behrman marriage will be one
of the prettiest and most elaborate
in the history of the Holy Name
Church. And il may be said here that
people need not worry about the tul-
filling of the laws of the church in this
case. No exemptions of any kind viii
be necessary and the ceremony itself
will clear away many points That are
the subject of some discussion al
present.
The Areencaux-Gaudin marriage will
take place at Paulina, La, November

elias, New Orleans.

to visit the many interesting exhibits,
besides the beautiful program put on
by the public schools. Though the

HOLY NAME SOCIETY.

The regular meeting of the Holy
Name Societies, both seniors and jul
niors, will take place tonight at 1880
o'clock A large meeting is expected.
The subject of instruction will be on
the Business of Salvation" a most
timely and instructive subject and
one that will appeal to men. After
the church meeting the regular bust
ness meeting will take place at the
H. n. G. c., at which the election of
officers for the coming year will be
discussed. The society will be forced
to elect a new president this year on
account of the resignation of L. w.
Peterson, who, because of his new
position. finds 1t impossible to attend
the meetings regularly. This will be
a great loss to the society. for he has
been while in Office a most efficient
president. He has always had a very
high idea of his office in this society
and considered 1t one of the greatest
honors ever put upon him. The So
ciety will miss his congenial method
of running the meetings and the bene-
fetal effects of his personality.
Though not president, he will con-
tinue to be a most ardent member.
With new life installed in the pre-
fects the Holy Name Society ought to
see one of its best years.

and noise, the yard was full of kicking
and the overflow was in the street

school during the week cannot come
around as much as usual. but they
make up for time lost on Sunday.
Some new improvements have been
made to the entrance of the gym and

zone man out Of every is Of the popu-
lation of Australia volunteered and went
into active service for the war" said Her
man Pfaif. of Melbourne. Australia a gen
eral Importer, who is visiting Philadelphia
with a view TO establishing commercial
relations with merchants and manufsc'
turers n this city.
Australia" he said "has n population
of 5000 900 and over 10000 have volun.
tRrily enlisted for the war. The feeling Of
loyalty for the mother country he con-
tinued '1s far more intense and the feel
ing Of bitterness against Germany is
greater than in Great Britain; in fact. the
Australians are more English than the
English themselves. And they are moro
compact in their loyalty--that is, there Is
little or no difference of opinion on the
subject.
"Business In Australia has been serious
1y affected by the war our exports are
keeping UP remarkably. but we are ham
pered by the scarcity of ships to trans
port our wool fruit and meat, which are
our three principal exports. our wool ex-
port alone amounts to over S250.000 900
each year.
"ay personal opinion" said Mr.. Pfaff
'is that Australia will recover more quick
" after the war is over than any other
country, because we are a producing coun-
try rather than n manufacturing one
that Is. we produce the raw materials
England and the United states we finish
hsIf.manufactured products quite extern
sieely. Woolens. boots and shoes are our
largest manufactures"
Mr. Pfaff Is here to replace the Zines he
formerly imported from Germany, espe-
cally dry goods hardware and pianos
''My experience for so far" he said
i'show me that American merchants and
manufacturers are too busy and too pros.

sighted policy, aud they will find If they
do not go after this business now when
II is seeking them. some one else will

The linking of the Pennsylvania
Railroad. into the system operated by the
Philadelphia Belt Line Railroad will re-
suit in building up the Delaware River
front with new business enterprises to n
greater extent than almost any other plan
yet devised, according TO William r.
Tucker, secretary Of the Board of Trade.
This commercial organization, in view
of it's participation i'm the via Philadelphia
movement. is. negotiating with the Penn
sylvania to enter the Belt Line system.
The Philadelphir. and Rea ling Railway
AMI the Baltimore and Ohio already are
associated. With all three railroads in
cluded in the Belt Line system outside
manufacturers would he induced to locate
along its line. Mr.. Tucker declared. be-
cause of the fact that all roads would be
equally at their disposal. This, he pointed
out, was a big factor where a manufac-
turer shipped all over the country
Another benefit, one that would affect
local shipments. he brought out, would be
the elimination of switching charges at
times when 1t was necessary to deliver
freight to the piers over two different
roads. Under the present arrangement II
a shipment of goods is TO go from the
Reading to n pier on the lines of the Penn
sylvania, or vice versa. the consignment
must be taken to Belmont Junction over
one road and transshipped over the other
line. In this operation the shipper is sub
jected TO a double charge With all roads
working i'm conjunction with the Belt Line.
this shipment would pass directly over
the Belt Line at an insignificant freight
rate. 'f

is happy. Mike figures as long as he
can keep a supply of spuds he can lie
without consulting the morgue or the

with potatoes requires energy or money
Mike finds 1t difficult TO obtain the latter
for the reason that the wave of pros
perity has not carried a job in his direc-

fact that most employers fight shy Of
