There is a great hole or well neal

while his servants were saving the

rain came on, which quite destroyed

with rage, and he mounted his horse
and drew his sword, and rode forth
to the field; and there he challenged
the Lord God Himself to battle
And he swung his sword round his
head and struck at the air, as if he
would STAY the Great Invisible Spirit
On which suddenly a strange thing
happened, for a great whirlwine

THE STORY OF AN APPLE.

Little Tommy and Peter and Archy
and Bob
Were walking one day, when they
found
An apple; twas mellow and rosy and
red,
And lying alone on the ground.
Said Tommy, I'll have it; said Peter,
TITS mine'
Said Archy, 1--WE got it; so there!"
Said Robby, Now let us divide it in
four parts,
And each of us boys have share"
mo, no." shouted Tommy; 'I'll have
it myself
Said Peter, Il want it, | say"
Said Archy, I've got it, and I'll have
it all; ....
| won't give a morsel away"
Then Tommy he snatched it, and
Peter he fought;
'Tis sad and distressing to tell,
And Archy held on with his might aud
his main,
Till out of his fingers it fell.
Away from the quarrelsome urchins
it flew,
And then down a green little hill
That apple it rolled, and it rolled, and
it rolled,
AS if it would never be still.
A lazy old brindle was nippiny the
grass
And switching her tail at the flies,
When all of a sudden the apple rolled
down
And stopped just in front CT her
eyes.
She gave but one bite and a swallow
or two
That apple was seen never morel
Il WISH" whimpered Archy and Peter
and Tom,
Wed kept it and cut it, in four"

YOUR ENEMY, YOUR TONGUE.

Little boy or girl, some day you
Will be a young man or young
lady, and to be sure, you want to be
good one and have many friends
There are cartoons and funny pic
lures current, when a fellow needs
FRIEND" and it is always when he
is in trouble. This is quite true and
should be lesson to every boy and
girl to try to have as many friends as
possible. A good friend will bring
more happiness into our lives than
$1,000, and yet you sometimes don't
care very much if you have one as a
friend or an enemy.
Do you know what is the greatest
danger and the commonest way you
lose your friends? 1t is by that wag
ging tongue in your mouths. You
like to talk, and it is nice if you talk
about good things; but how often dc
you talk about bad things, say things
about other boys or girls that aren't
nice and perhaps not true? When
those of whom you, say something thai
would hurt their feelings, hear about
it, you have an enemy forever.

ENGLAND'S HUNGRY BIRDS.

In gardens where no bird-table at.
tracts its feathered pensioners the sill
ent absence of bird-life is almost op-
presSive; but the birds did not depart
before necessity compelled, observes
the London Times. Sometimes grim
fate stalked in the thin shrubbery
whence now and again the household
cat has emerged; but more often your
garden birds have migrated afeld be-
cause they had exhausted the posi-
bilities of their home. See down the
length of the garden wall footwide
space had been absolutely cleared of
deal leaves by blackbird and thrush,
who had tossed them to one side in
their search for wintering insect life.
Look closer and you will see that prob
ing bills have worked a little creyice
all the way between the earth and the
wall. See, every square inch of I'M
covered frozen ground is dusty from
the innumerable pecks of hungry little
beaks.

St. Anthony's Assistant

Mother Angela's eyes wandered un-
seeingly from the columns of figures
on the page before her. Though the
debt side doomed up threateningly, as
usual, it was not the cause of the
wrinkle between her eyes. .....
Over in the hospital wing DR.. Sulli-
van and two specialists he had called
into consultation, were even now MAX
ing the examination which would tell
whether Bobby Stafford could be cured
Of the blindness which had come on
him when baby.
Bobby was eight years old, the pet
of st. Anthony Home for the Blind
factors, loved the child. Mother An
gela's eyes rested on the statue OF
st. Anthony, under whose protection
the home was placed. Surely the good
saint would hear their prayers for
| Bobby He, who held the Child Jesus
children for His sake
She turned again to her task. The
! quarterly report was already night
| mare to her. AS she checked column
| after column she thought how seldom
the balance came out in favor of the
home. Usually there was something
to add to the debt already large
enough. Still, what could one do?
| Turn away the friendless, sightless
ones who knocked and begged for adj
mlttance in the name of Christ? No!
Worry and plan; beg from the gener-
st. Anthony's.
Her heart grew tender as she
thought of the little ones starting life's
| journey with such handicap. Then
| the anxious thought stole into her
mind again and her lips moved in
prayer If only Bobby could be cured.
She thrilled at the thought! Quick
and clever, his wonderful fingers al
most uncanny in their deftness, his
mind comprehending things hard for
much Older child, with eyesight re-
| stored he need fear no other handicap.
Through the glass door of her. office,
which commanded a view of the cor
ridor, she saw DR.. Sullivan approach
ing with his colleagues. He parted
| from them at the main door, and, at
her gentle bidding entered the office
and seated himself near her desk.
What is the decision about Bobby?
she. asked, striving to conceal her
anxiety,
Or. Reed and DR.. Mulvey confirm
my diagnosis" he answered. They
agree with me that with a certain del
icate operation performed, Bobby's
eyesight can be restored. But" he
continued gravely, ''they also agree
with me that there is just one man
capable of undertaking that opera
ton: DR.. John McIvor."
Tears of joy suffused Mother An
gela's eyes.
Or. Sullivan, l am so glad; Just
think what it means for Bobby" 81.
There was no answering joy in the
doctors eye. He was young man
and usually cheerful and bright, but
today he seemed eareworn as he said
soberly:
am sorry, Reverend Mother, but
fear you are to be bitterly disap-
pointed. When the possibility arose
of there being even. a slight chance
for Bobby got in touch with the big
] specialists along that line. and all re.

WET WASH LAUNDRY

Mother Angela went on evenly: Il
think l can answer your question for
you. We shall leave Bobby out of the
question. He is the child who was
saved from blindness through the doc
tors sacrifice. 1t is hardly just or
fair to call him a pauper He is just
a child whose natural protectors have
been taken from him."
Her voice was gently reprOaChful as
she continued: I'VE are all children in
the sight of God, depending on His
bounty. We all have ideals; with some
it is one thing, with some another.
They are not always realized, but we
are all the better for them" She
stared off in the distance for mo-
ment, then continued: Il am an old
woman now and life has taught me
this If the doctor had gone, coward
ly leaving his duty undone behind him,
he would have taken with him a dis
turbing thought, which would have
dimmed the brightness of the fairest
Egyptian day, and if he buried that
thought he would have buried with it
the greatest and finest thing that
Egypt or the Libyan Desert could teach
him.
Her fine eyes flashed, her face was
TRANSPORTED as it was lighted with the
earnestness of her words, then the
radiance slowly faded until she was a
simple nun, with bright eyes and
face which age and character had
deeply lined.
Mr. Martin had nothing to answer.
Words seemed superfuous, and he
bowed himself out Afterward, in tell
ing the story to his friend, he said in
his blunt way:
I've heard lot of talk about the
light that was never on sea or land
I've put it down as mostly buncombe,
but, by George, l saw it that day in
that Sisters face"
And being as earnest as he was
outspoken, and having a private for
tune at his disposal, he took upon him
self the plans for Bobby's future, and
incidentally some wise plans for the
home. In the months that followed,
when Mother Angela checked her col
umns, often there was. a substantial
balance in favor of the home. But
that is another story.
After her visitor had left that day,
Mother Angela knelt before the statue
OF st. Anthony. Bit by bit, she pieced
out the story Of Bobby and his sue
cessfiIl operation and everything was
made plain. Gratefully she offered
her thanks to their good patron.

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
WE'RE CHuMs, YOU SEE!

AZ
They wonder why l run and tell
OF every little thing,
And say I'm such a baby boy,
Tied to an apron string;
But truly I don't blame them much;
They're different from me;
My mother knows just what is what,
Because we're chums, you see!
When things are in tansie up,
And temperS snarling, too;
When some one needs a whipping bad
(And maybe it is you)!
She never scolds nor makes fuss,
But sweet as sweet can be
Will try to help a fellow out,
Because we're chums, you see!
If you've been going wrong, she knows
Just how to set you right,
And shows you how your actions look
In Gods most holy sight;
While if there must be punishment,
About that we agree,
Although her heart feels sorry, too,
Because we're chums, you see!
She ciphers with me On my slate,
Then helps me read and spell,
And makes me study hard and learn
| To say my lessons we'll.
And mothers great at games; she likes
| To play as we'll as we;
| When our side wins she's just as glad
Because we're chums, you see.
I'm sorry for those other chaps,
l pity ev'ry one;
| They'd love to have a chum like mine,
For all they're poking fun.
Some mothers are too tired, know
/ And others do not care
To bother with the little boys
Their plays and studies share.
But mine! She's just the very best
Of loving friends to me!
And oh! I'm such a happy son,
Because we're chums, you see

LoUVAIN'S TREASURES.

Louvain is free university. Catho-
lie and truly national. When it re-
opened in 1884 (for the French revolt
ton had caused its closing), every be-
lever in Belgium was asked bv the
Church to give one franc to the insti-
tuition. Louvain has had few scholar
ships and little endowment. She has
depended on tuition fees and private
generosity.
No reparation can restore to the
world the galleries where Charles Y.
ruler of almost all Europe, pored over
old learning. There is no way to re-
place the 100000 manuscripts which
went UP in smoke and ashes on August
