at MUST BE-"

Not all that we think must be- is
in reality so. 1t is best to gauge the
necessity of the thousand-and-one lit
tie things which we deem necessary
to our daily life: expenditures, visits,
parties, ETC., by the amount of time
and money they cost us during the
year and the profits, either mental,
social, or physical, resulting there
from. Then, if this comparison shows
the former to be in excess of the lat
ter, they should Immediately be can
celled from our budget. They are the
beginning of a social and moral col
lapse which, according to immutable
laws, develops where a lack of con-
sideration and calculation has under
mined the structure of our existence.
It is then, when the catastrophe is at
hand, that Fate says: 1T must be-
and ruthlessly skaters the poorly
constructed frame of our life, burying
beneath it's ruins all that is near and
dear to us.

WHAT THE LITTLE SHOES SAID.

I saw two dusty little shoes
A-standing by the bed;
They suddenly began to talk,
And this is what they said:
We're just as tired as we can be,
We've been most everywhere;
And now our little master rests
1t really is not fair.
Hes had his bath and sweetly sleeps
'Twixt sheets both cool and clean,
While we are left to stand outside;
Now don't you think it mean?
We've carried him from morn till
night;
He's quite forgot, that's plain;
While here we watch, and wait, and
wait
Till morning comes again.
."And then he'll tramp, and tramp
and tramp
The livelong summer day.
Now this is what we'd like to do
Just carry him away.
where he could never go to bed,
But stay up all the night
Unwashed, and covered DER with
dust
Indeed! 'tWould serve him right
Our Little Men and Women.

transformed into a sweet little hazel
eyed fairy. Aunt Emily kissed her
and sent her off to Fairy Dell"
ooh DEAR" said grandma, Il wish
could find my glasses!"
And away Fairy Dot flew, upstairs
and downstairs, and back came
grandma's glasses. Grandma's wish
came true.
"Oh, said little brother John, 81
wish some one would help me put my
soldiers away"
And there on the spot
Was Fairy Dot.
Mother wished her flowers were
watered, and father wished for his
newspaper; Aunt Emily wished for
some one to help stir the cake and
stew the raisins, and Bridget wished
she knew what the clock said; Tow
ser looked as though he wanted a
drink, and the kitten begged for some
milk; and there were wishes, wishes,
everywhere in Fairy Dell" Wasn't
it good Fairy Dot was there!

HER SACRIFICE.

arms thrown protectingly about her
dropping shoulders.
Suddenly a panic took possession
of Betsy's mind. She could not gather
her thoughts together for one clear
sentence. She would and she wouldn't.
She prayed Yes, she thought, she
would speak here where everything
was singing the praises of it's Creator.
At last she found courage, and her
words came thick and fast.
80, Robert, why have you changed?
Why not death rather than this?
And in broken accents she poured
forth her grief that this loved brother
of hers should have thrown aside his
God, forgotten Him Who had stained
his young tongue SO often with the
redeeming Blood of the Man-God. He
Who had given so much and expected
so little in return. He Who blessed
and showered untold favors to be
put aside, ignored and condemned.
During her intense Gliding, Robert
rose to his feet and restlessly paced
to and fro. Suddenly stopping in
front of her, he fiercely demanded,
looking down into the depths of her
eyes with savage intentness:
''Who told your"
h mo one but yourself" was her
quick answer 90, brother!" she was
crying now, think what you are do
ing. Think Of"
Don't, sis, dont!"
Robert now lost control of himself,
and throwing himself down on the
mound near his sister, broke into an
uncomfortable frenzy of grief. Betsy
soothed, comforted, or chided as she
thought best. Finally reluctant
promise was given to make a short
visit, only a quarter Of an hour, to
the nearby chapel, to spend this time
before the tabernacle, to say moth
ing, if he found it impossible to pray
just to look at the tabernacle door
With this she was content, for she
we'll knew that the dear Prisoner OF
love would speak to this wayward
heart, would bring her dear brother
back to His love and service. Just at
this moment a rabbit darted by, and
with the zest of children they started
after it, Robert calling to Betsy to
follow. The rabbit was quick, but
Robert and Betsy followed close

denly Betsy stumbled and her CUR

TO THE DISCONTINUED.

The fat woman wants to get thin;
the thin woman longs to gain fat.
The farmer looks forward to the
time when he can afford to quit hard
work and move to. town and take life
easy; the city man hopes for the
time when he can retire to the quiet
of the country.
A multi-millionaire declares that
the rich are not so well off as the
poor, who have not such heavy re-
sponsibilities to worry them. And
every poor man believes exactly the
opposite.
Is it deep question? No; hard
ly skin-deep. The commonplace truth
is that nearly every one of us is more
or less dissatisfied with his lot and
jealously thinks the other fellow has
the best of it. The world always
seems just little brighter and bet
ter most anywhere than on the spot
you occupy just now.
1t is because we are incurably rest
less and dissatisfied And it is well
that we are. If the rich were con-
tent they would keep all their money;
but they spend and spend, seeking
happiness, and that's how the, rest of
us get a chance at it. Most of us
work and work, to get some money
to be happy with, and that's how the
worlds work gets done.
We of this country are said to be
the most discontinued people on earth.
Maybe that is why we are the most
energetic and progressive. If we were
contented, advancement would cease.

"How / shall miss what | have en-
joyed in this big city, when | go back
to my little village sighed Dora.
The young girl had lately finished
her high school course, and before
taking up her home life as mothers
helper, she had had visit with a
family friend in large city.
81 am sorry to have you co. said
the hostess, "but l hope you won't
take such sorry face home with you,
as you wear this minute. What is
back of it, Dora? Tell me, please"
81 think you will understand" said
the girl, wistfully. This great city
seems so full of everything. 1t is like
being in broad place, where one can
see far off, and reach out. The little
home village is such a narrow place,
What chance is there to know things
and to do things, in a little cooped-up
bit of town like that? 1t is as diff
ferent from this, as the wide paved
streets here are different from the
little struggling lanes that we use so
much in going about. =
Dear GIRL" said the older friend,
"you do not dream how many who go
along these highways long for the vii
lage by-ways, so quiet and restful, and
apart from the stir and turmoil, felt
to be so wearing on the body and
spirit. But no matter as to that.
Your life at present belongs to the
by-ways, and I urge you to take the
joys that belong to you there"
How shall I find them?"
take my word for it, these paths
which are to be the only. ones for your
feet just now are bordered with such
little joys and duties, privileges and
opportunities, as make them blossom
ing by-ways. Look for the flowers
and the wholesome herbs, and you
will find them at your feet. Gather
them, and you can make every day
beautiful and sayory, too, with what
you find close to YOU A look of
faint understanding struggled into
Dora's expression.
"You think the common everyday

and monotonous, but it will be neither
if YOU go open-eyed and observant
and take the sweet little joys thai
bloom in quiet paths, where there is
room for them. Don't pass them BY

whispered the paymasters clerk.
Il will thrash you if you dare!"
returned one of the midshipmen, I'M

The wardroom officers had guests,
too. They brought up guitars and sat
on the top deck above, singing 'The
Swanee River" and other popular
songs.
"How pretty" cried Jenny Lind,
with enthusiasm, clapping.
When at last she was leaving, she
paused on the step between the carved
sides of the gangWay. Looking up at
the floating Stars and Stripes, she
said:
Il wish to salute your flag"
Uncoverlng her head and holding
her hat in her hand she began to sing
1.-THE Star Spangled Banner
AS she sang the first verse every
officer and every man came silently
on deck. When she had sung the
song to the end, deafening cheers
rang out from the St. Lawrence, and
were taken up by every ship near by,
for all had been listening.
Steamers blew their whistles; and
every man within reach of that thrill
ing voice knew that he had heard one
of the most inspiring songs in the
world, sung as he would probably
never hear it sung again.

WHAT THIN FOLKS SHOULD
KNOW.

Overeating is common cause of
emaciation, paradoXical as this state
ment may seem. Many of our thin
nest neighbors are the biggest eaters
of the community. 1t is an old
fashioned saying that these people
"eat so much that it makes them thin
to carry it around" In any case, it
food one swallows, but a question of
how much is digested and assimilated.
Many persons will gain in weight
upon disseminating the three-meal
plan and adopting the plan of two
meals per day. The stomach is then
no longer overburdended or over
worked, and the digestion is so much
more perfect and the health so i'm
proved that gain in weight results
naturally.
The. general health requirements
must not be overlooked Remember
that the thin man or woman is usu-
ally a rundown individual. Exercise
is important, but it should be used
with discretion and in accordance
with personal peculiarities and needs
In practically all cases of this kind,
however, a great deal of sleep and
plenty of rest are essential Fresh
air is tonic of great value. Many
persons are able to gain weight dur
ing short vacation in the country
for the combined reasons of relaxa
ton from oyerwork, the tonic effect
of outdoor life and the improved ap.
petite and digestion. If one works
hard during the day, it is all the more
important that he or she should en-
joy some pleasant relaxation during
the evening. Naturally, where there
is some chronic disease at the basis
of state of emaciation, appropriate
| treatment will be necessary.

loved ones and live only for Thee, nay
/ shall suffer death willingly for Thy
sweet sake"
Passionately she prayed and pleaded
with her heavenly Father to vouch-
safe the grace of a happy death. Just
then she caught faint murmur,
STOPPING so that her ear was close
to his mouth, she caught the words,
20, God, forgive me, 1 humbly crave
your pardon Again in broken SEN
fences and gasping breathe, my
Creator, | acknowledge you as the
Supreme Ruler of the Universe. My
Lord, and my God. Forgive me, dear
Jesus, am heartily sorry. Sorry be-
cause I have offended my God and my
Maker" Again came his last words,
Jesus, Mary, Juseph." Her prayer
was answered, but the lamp had
burned out, her brother was dead.
Poor BROTHER" she sobbed, ''how |
love you, but o, how happy am to
know you made peace with your
Creator. o, how I shall miss you'll"
Here she broke into deep, deep sobs,
unconscious to her surroundings until
Jerry put his little paws on her
shoulder and with the almost human
intelligence of a faithful dog, licked
her hands with a certain soothing
touch. Quickly she seized the little
animal, scratched a few hastily writ
ten words of the accident, pinned the
paper to his collar and sent him for
aid. For Robert she could do moth
ing but pray. How lonely she was
and how lonely she would be. Weep
again she could not, but her heart
bled for her grief was within, the
exterior signs of sorrow she could
not show, they were mere shadows
to the unseen grief that swelled in
silence in her tortured SOUL
Three weeks after found her in the
country Jail, accused of murder. For
strange as it may seem there were
three men passing through the woods
on that fateful afternoon and all three
had sworn that she had deliberately
aimed her gun and fired with intent
to kill at the brother for whom she
had offered her life. Parents and
friends could do nothing, the law
would have its way, and she was con-
demned to death At first the horror
had been great, but when peace had
stolen upon her spirit after her com
munion with her God and her daily
reception of the Blessed Sacrament
which good Father L'Elaine had
brought her, she realized that God had
demanded of her the promise so will
ingly given, that for her brothers
soul she would give anything in re-
turn, yea, even her very life This
thought made her happy and strong.
The consolation that flooded her soul
gave vent in the prayer that burst
| forth unconsciously from her lips, 20,
| destined for me with all the pains
that may accompany it." Sentence
was to be imposed on the 18th day of
| August. This but added to that hap
piness that no mortal can take from a
soul that has given itself completely
| to the direction of the will of its
Creator Betsy felt that Our Lady
would be with her and that her as
sumption into heaven would be has
tened by her union with the Holy
Mother of her God, that soon, indeed,

! face to face, and meet that glorified
soul for whom God had deemed her
a worthy sacrifice.
