Never mind where your work is.
Never mind whether it be visible or
not. Never mind whether your name
is associated with it. You may never
see the issues of your toll. You are
working for eternity. If you cannot
see results here in the hot working
day, the cool evening hours are draw
ing near, when you may rest from your
labours, and then they may follow you
So do your duty, and trust God to
give the seed you SOW "a body as it
hath pleased Him. "-AleTdndeT Mac,

Brother Henry kept his word He
was not only more simple. good-natur-
ed and generous than before, but to
these qualities was added the indefin-
able grace of.God.
Six months went by. The garden
was sweet with June roses when the
younger brother fell SICK. 1t was the
first time he had allied anything since
the day of his entrance into the mon
astery. None thought much of it ex-
cept the abbot. He alone looked grave
and regarded the boy half enyiously
He had not looked to keep him long,
as the time had now come to tell the
brethren.
"One night was in the church
while Brother Henry was kneeling at
the altar of Our Lady-it was the.
night before he was to have been sent
away--then saw the Blessed Mother
bend down from her pedestal, and the
Child in her arms was holding out a
white rose. $50. ;"
It, was not until Brother Henry's last
moment was at hand that the abbot
told him, too, of the vision which con-
cern"1 him so nearly.
And with happy smile on his lips
and the schedule of profession in his
hand, the little brother slept.

A white rose-bush marks the spot
where he lies. 1t was planted there
by Dom Paschals own hands. He, too,
it was who wrote down these things
in the annals of the monastery, and
there is blot on the page where a
tear may have fallen ere the ink was
dry.

have been the better spared, yet truly
he was the more meet for Paradise >

REVENUE GAIN TO
SHOW PROSPERITY
Collector Lowe Estimates That Man
haitian District Will Give Up $685.
100000 or $4,000, 900.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a. = John z.
Lowe, jr., internal revenue collector of
the district comprising the lower part
or Manhattan Island, estimates that the
internal revenue tax collections from
that district for the year ending June
80 would amount to $4,000, 900, pos
Ibly $4O,O00,000. The collections in
that district in 1915 were see. 900 900.
or l-3 per cent of the, total internal
revenue receipts of the United States
which amounted to $415,S69 $50.
These collections include the CORPORA
ton and individual income taxes and
the war tax collections under the
emergency act. The amount annually
collected from this district exceeds the
aggregate collected from 81 states.
Mr.. Lowe attributes the prospective
increase OF upward of 100000 in the
collections from this district to new
bond issues of corporations, transfers
and the effect of the emergency act.
he regards the increase as reliable ha-
rometer of business progress.

GLASHEEN STICKS
TO FORMER STORY
Admits the Murder of Lafayette Bat
telle, But Says He Killed Vet
eran in Self-Defense.

PlTTSFIELD, Mass, Feb. pa
Michael Glasheen, known in South
Berkshire as Michael Ryan, the alleged
murderer of Lafayette Battelle of
Monterey, is now in the Berkshire
county Jail on bench warrant. and
held without bail. GIasheen again told
the story of his life to newspaper re-
porters, also his story of the crime.
admitting that he struck the AGED
veteran with stick of wood. beating
him to the floor and leaving him un.
conscious, but insisting that he acted
in self-defense
Glasheen was photographed and had
his finger prints taken at the police
station. He was then committed to Jail.
he will remain there until the April
sitting of superior court, or perhaps I'M
til July, when he will plead to the
secret indictment for first degree muir
der returned against him in January.
Michael Ryan is the name he went
by while a resident of South Berkshire.
1t is very likely that will be the name
he will be commonly called by in the
future. He was brought TO this city
last night by State Detective Thomas
E. Bligh and Chief of Police William
j. Oschman of Great Darlington, ar
irving from Waterbury on the 1O.1s
