Cottons Are Being Used as
Substitutes for Linens.

From the very nature of the Linen mar
ket great many of our people must neces-
sarily use Cotton Fabrics in substitution of
Linen Fabrics.
Our judgment is that good articles made
of good cotton are far better for service, ap-
!pearance and use, and more economical than
poor quality articles of fax
Therefore, we will not offer inferior
grades of linen or fax productions, but we
do show extensive lines of the best cottons.
They are grades that we recommend and in

Birds make delightful neighbors, and they
will gladly live around your home if you pro-
vide the proper home for them. We have the
famous Dad Hubbard Bird Houses, which are
made according to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture Specifications. They
are as artistic as anything of the kind could
we'll be.

much pleasure in watching them, and the children
will take keen interest in their habits and ways
of living, and providing for themselves and their
little broods.

|sEtF-GLo RIFIcATloN ORGY
NOW EXISTS IN GERMANY
Record Figure Of Sixth War Loan
Brings Rejoicing-Kaiser Voices
Qualification.

By the Associated Press.
AMSTERDAM, April 20. - German
newspapers are INDUCING in veritable
orgy; of seIf-glorification at the rec
ord figure of the sixth German war
loan. The expectation is expressed on
all sides that the entente will now GER
tainly see that the attempt to exhaust
Germany's financial strength is an utter
failure. The deduction is freely drawn
that this perception. coupled with an
American crop failure and the German
submarine exploits, must bring speedy
victory.
LONDON, April 20-In a dispatch
from Amsterdam. Reuters correspond
ent says Emperor William has sent the
following telegram to Count Won
Roeder. secretary of the imperial treas
ury;
"Your report of the brilliant results
of the subscriptions to the. sixth war
loan has highly gratified me. Accept
my heartiest congratulations for this
gigantic success. which is new and
powerful testimony before the entire
world of the German peoples resolute
will for victory and its unshakable con-
fidence in the future of the fatherland."

Cheer Up the Soldiers
GOOD ADVICE TO THOSE WHO
ARE LEFT BEHIND.

"The Sufferings and heartaches of
war are well known to be of those
who stay at home, of the mothers and
daughters and sweethearts of the men
who go to the war; observes the
Catholic Messenger. In most cases
the soldier has left all his troubles
behind. Recognizing this condition a
movement has been inaugurated at
some of the encampments in the south
that calls upon the mothers and
daughters and sweethearts to relieve
the soldier from the usual worry of
the home and SO far as they are able
to cheer the men in the army. They
are advised not to send sob letters
and tell the soldier boy that mother
is sick, father sprained his little
finger and poor little Johnny is down
with the measles They ask them in
stead to write CHEEKY letters, which
will keep UP his spirits, make him
contented, and therefore more eff
cient. This is good advice. No matter
what the conditions at home are, the
boy at the front is unable to relieve
them 1t takes heroism-and the
heroism of the mothers of soldiers has
been the grandest thing in the world S
history; where they have hidden their
tears at partings, and buried their
grief so far as they could, and given
their soldier boy their prayers and
their blessings while they suffered
alone. But these requirements throw
it upon the stay-at-homes and society
that escapes the burden of service, to
take SO far as they can the place of
the boy who has gone to the front,
and supply SO far as they can the
solace and the comforts of which his
service to his country deprived them"

painful effort, from an inside pocket
of his tunic a rosary of beads which
had crucifix attached to it. Then
he commenced to mutter to himself
the invocations to the Blessed Virgin,
of which the rosary is composed.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord
is with thee; blessed art thou among
women, and blessed is the fruit of
thy womb, Jesus"
The German, lying huddled close by,
stirred with the uneasy movements of
man weak from pain and loss of
blood on hearing the murmur of
prayer, and, looking round in a dazed
condition, the sight of the beads in
the hands of his fellow in distress
seemed to recall to his mind other
times and different circumstances
family prayers at home somewhere in
Bavaria, and Sunday evening devo-
lions in church-for he made, in his
own tongue, the response to the in
vocation: Holy Mary, Mother of God
pray for us sinners now and at the
hour of our DEATH Amen
So the voices intermingled in adj
dress and prayer-the wrapt ejacula

carried clubs and stones, and they
used them mercilessly.
The strange part of the whole
disgraceful outrage is that the po-
lice and the National Guard were
present, but apparently they were
entirely oblivious of their plain
duty, if not in actual sympathy
with the leaders of the mob.
Words are scarcely strong enough
to condemn the apathy OF the So
called guardians Of the law, as
well as the deliberate brutality of
the rioters. The document grant
ing the rights of citizenship to the
negro-a document drenched with
the blood of half a million men
during the Civil War-Was torn
to shreds by white citizens and the
fragments hurled into the faces
Of black citizens. Law was set at
naught. Reason was stiffed. The
Wanted rights Of citizenship were
torn ruthlessly from the black
man and Rugged tightly to the
white mans bosom. It is occur
rences of this brutal nature that
cause foreign nations to point the
finger of scorn at us, when we pro-
test against their cruelties, and
that cause them to exclaim, Ply
stefan, cure myself. For the sake
OF our national honor and in the
cause of American liberty it is to
be hoped that every man, white or
black, official or civilian, who was
accessory in any way to this
deplorable carnage will be severe
ly dealt with to the very last limit.

THE SUNDAY SERMON.

1t seems to be an age-o1d custom
among Christians Of all denomina-
tions to offer criticism, friendly or
otherwise, Of the Sunday sermon.
Many persons seem to forget that
the sermon or an instruction is
not given with view to entertain
or amuse, but with the direct pur-
pose to teach and to eXhort. The
preacher does not, should not,
seek to please His duty is to
drive home the truths of Chris
tianity and the teachings Of the
Church in order to improve the
moral and spiritual lives of his
hearers. With regard to the
careless and discriminating
habit of sermon-hearers' who,
after church or Mass, ask their
companions How did you like
the sermon?' the Literary Di-
gest quotes UNCONVENTIONAL pa
per. It's conclusion may apply, in
way, to Catholics:
Asking that question has be-
come a habit which it will prob
ably take centuries to eradicate.
1t is a demon which can be cast
out only by prayer and fasting.
No wonder spiritual results of
preaching are so meagre. What
can be expected from preaching
unless laymen realize that they are
to follow up the work Of persua-
sion by driving home the word set
forth by the preacher? Sermons
are not toys to be played with, or
petty pieces Of rhetoric on which
every member Of the congregation
is expected to pass judgment. A
sermon is not an exquisite bit of
literary bric-a-brac to be chartered
over and judged by the technical
rules of art. 1t is not dump
ling into which every self-consti-
tuted critic is invited to stick his
fork that he may praise or con-
denim the cook. A sermon is a
solemn warning, a bugle-call to
duty, a burning condemnation. an
earnest stroke against a giant
wrong, an exhortation to high en-.
deayor, the illumination Of &
majestic truth. Sermons arc
