the words they know it is useless to
speak. BY looking back on our own
experience we can guess just what is
included under their head: The nag
ging words, the fretful words, the
words that are bitter and unkind.
How many times we have resolved
that we will never speak them again,
only to find them escaping our lips
almost, it would seem, in spite OF us.
But after all, the prospect of cut.
ting the sorrows of life right in two
is worth an effort, and protracted
effort. 1t may take time, but in time
anyone can learn this enormously
important lesson. Some of the
worlds noted men, who in their
youth were inflammable and fiery,
going to pieces on the least provoca-
ton, have learned such self-control
that even if abuse we're showered on
them, they could sit through it with
out the least betrayal of feeling.
Leave unsaid the words that are
unkind, impatient, fretful or com.
planning. Forego the witty word or
smart saying, that will bring pain to
some tender, sensitive heart. Avoid
the tale bearer asd scandal monger.
Eschew the gossip, and never under
any circumstances leave a stain on
a neighbours good name or fair reputa.
ton by deliberate detraction.

BEAUTIES OF THE OLD MAID.

The term old maid should cease to
be one of approbrium, and become one
of praise Some of the most beautiful
characters that we have met were old
maids-unmarried, not through neces-
sity, but from choice. Have you seen
much self-sacrifice anywhere but in
the life and character of many an old
maid? Generally they have done some.
thing which cannot be said of all their
sex. If there is a father widowed, she
bravely takes mothers place, forgets
everything but her home and the kind
ly ministrations that should wait on
age, and merging her individuality in
the necessities of the day, yields her
life in martyr fashion. This devotion
to home inspires a greater devotion to
Church, and when work is to be done
the old maid shows her unselfishness,
and is ready, without a murmur, to
obey every wish of authority.
Old maids do not shun in COW.
ardice the obligations of marriage, and
should not be moderated on this score.
Their lives are full of anxieties, and
quietly they settle down to meet
drudgeries that wither smiles. They
are generally the most Woodworking
if for nothing else than they have to
fill the harassing demands of petu-
liant old age; and when their own
years grow apace they have naught to
cheer their deselation~ save the mem
DRY of their service generously given
and life heroically spent
Very many of these women are sim
gle on account of contempt for mans
faithlessness. Gentle souls themselves,
they cannot brook the course brutal
ity that would fain wed them. They
are single from high sense of honor
that abominates association with the
base. They are such from a heroic
virtue that offers solitude to God. All
credit to the old maids that have risen
to the highest plane of devotion that
serves others and not themselves,
loves others and not themselves, and
are ladies despite the scorn that their
Christian sisters would fain speak in
gibes and jokes. If there is saint in
the parish, see if she be not an old
maid.

coLoRLEss CATHOLICS.

Some people say, I used to go out
great deal among people, but found
could not without SHINING against
charity" Good God! my friends, did
God give these hands that you might
never use them? Hands we're made
to do, eyes to look, lips to speak.
That restrain my lips in silence is
that may get them under control till
can speak better than ever in the
service of God.
Those colorless people who go
about in the world do great deal of
harm to religion-crawling on earth
and never lifting their eyes to heaven.
Never be content with merely trying
not to do wrong. If you have been in
the habit of getting angry, should
say: Don't make a resolution not to
be angry, but say something kind.
Use those lips in the service of Jesus
Christ. A person says, Father, I

HIS OLD TEACHER.

In a big hospital in big middle
west city lies a little, white-haired
woman in what the doctors say will
be her last illness. She is old and
very frail. There seem to be no rela-
tives. Friends are very few. But
there is a magnificent bunch of fresh
flowers always on the little table be-
side her bed. Somebody, evidently,
has not forgotten the little old school
ma am.
That somebody happens to be the
chief of police of the big city. With
the first box of flowers came letter
from the chief. 1t read something
like this:
Dear Miss E.: l have just learned
that you are among the patients at
this hospital. Perhaps you do not re-
member me, but / shall always re-
member you. 1t was a good many
years ago that I was your pupil.

brat on the road to good-for-nothings.
Nobody took any interest in me ex-
cept to shoe me away and threaten
to call the police if l didn't scoot.
had no respect for man, God or the
devil. Nobody took the pains to UNI
derstand me-till entered your
grade.
"All that I am, and all that / ever
hope to be, is your work. l have had
other teachers. / learned from them
much that was good. But it was you
who found the spark of worthwhile
ness in me and taught it to raise it's
head and live. You put the sustain
ing support under my soul, and it is
you have to thank for my self
respect and the respect of others. God
bless you. Willie R."
The little teacher cried over that
letter. She keeps it tucked under her
pillow, and many times a day she
feels for it and thanks God. She
loves the flowers, too, but she loves
the letter more.
wonder if there are not more of
us who could send some such mes
sage to some tired old teacher who
labored long and conscientiously over
us-some soul growing discouraged in
the last lap of life's journey.

"GUILTY OR INNOCENT"

The game called guilty or limo
cent, is interesting.
One of the company gets himself
up to represent the old man of the
woods; the rest take the names OF
various animals, such as lion, tiger
leopard, and so on.
The players seat themselves around
the room, and the old man, standing
in the center, tells them that some
one of their number has committed a
crime, and he is about to question
them in order that he may discover
