Were starring the rain-drenched sod,
The sweetest blossom among them,
From the far.off gardens of God.
And over the haunted mountains.
Where Druids still watch and pray,
A dawn.wind wakened and whispered
"Give praise to the Lord today.
For to you child is given,
Whose name, in the days to be,
Will flame like torch eternal
From uttermost sea to sea;
And her life, like surge Of incense,
From the altar of your green sod,
Will fashion stair forever,
From Ireland up to God"
o Brigid, so high and holy!
So strong in womanly grace,
Look down from the stills of heaven
Today on your olden race.
'Tis over the world we're scattered,
And your land is a land Of woe,
But we're holding you as a lodestar,
Whatever the roads we know.
For you are our pledge in heaven,
With Pradaig and Columcille,
For the Faith by our foes unbroken,
And the hopes that they could not

For the surge of our prayers unceas.

For the depth Of our love unpriced,
For our agony in earth's garden,
And our crucifxion with Christ.
And we cry to you, holy Brigid,
'Tis you have the right to pray
For us in the land Of Erin,
In the hour Of our need today,
We breathe your name as a symbol,
Like the lamp on your altar set,
That God is an unforgetting God,
And will stand for our righting yet :;
Yea, He Who SO long has tried us
In the flame of His purging fire,
Will give to the race Of Brigid yet
The crown Of their souls desire.

= DEAR OLD skIBeEREEN.

Oh, Father dear, often hear you
speak Of Erin's Isle,
Her misty plains and valleys green,
her mountains wide and wild.
You say she is lovely land wherein
a prince might dwell.
Then why did YOU abandon her, the
reason to me tell.
"Ah, son, l loved my native land with
youths and manhood's pride,
Till blighted black were all my crops,
my sheep and cattle died.
My rent and taxes were too high,
could not them redeem,
And that's my boy, the reason why
left Old skibbereen!
"Ah, well do remember, lad, that
bleak December day
The landlord and the bailiff came to
drive US all away.
They piled the torch-my blazing roof
:. illumed the valleys green,
And I was forced to turn and go from
dear Old Skibbereen.
"Your mother, too-God rest her soul
lay on the stony ground.
She tainted in her anguish, seeing the
desolation round.
But God was good: she never woke
the neighbors raised the Caoine.
And late that night we made grave
in the Abbey near skibbereen!
"And you we're only two years old, and
feeble was your frame.
could not leave you with my friends
you bore your fathers name!
rolled you in my old frieze coat, at
dead Of night, unseen.

KEEP SOME IRISH IN YOUR Bow.


You may be q busy man, still it will
be we'll with you ii you find time to
keep some Irish in your boy. You
have given him a name! you have
transmitted to him religion; instill
also into him some Of your own Irish
character. 1t is your problem to under
stand your own boy, and II you under
stand him 1t is your duty to so fashion
his spirit that he will always be proud
of the blood that flows through his and
your heart. You are the best man
the best in all the world-to interpret
for him the fine traits Of the Irish char
acter. You are the best mantle best
In all the world-to tell him the story
of the homeland, and to put into his
hand a book which shall carry to him q
message and a lesson. II you let your
boy drift, his Irish attributes may be
lost forever. There are other tongues
than yours to talk to him-there are
other paths than yours for him to
tread. II you fail to utter truth there
are those who will tell him lies. If
you neglect him now, he will neglect
his race in the future. The schools
may educate his head; but you-and
his mother-must educate his heart.
Tell him Of the long trials to which
his ancestors were subjected; of the
cruel Penal Laws of which they were
the victims; of the. defeats and tri-
umphs; of the heroes and martyrs; Of
Owen Roe and Sarsfleld; of the 1.-THE
war; of the land war; Of the fight for
knowledge and faith, and Of the part
the Ancient Order of Hibernians
played In the long drama. If you will
keep some Irish In your boy he will
look upon life as his father looked. He
will not shirk his duty to the ancient
island that holds the bones Of his an
cestors. Tell him Of the prejudice
that caused hatred in this free land
against his race and religion and he
will be better equipped to recognize
and combat q recurrence Of that preju-
dice. should 1t ever raise it's ugly head
in our social and political system.
Keep some Irish in your boy, and he
will win higher place in the world as
a man and do his duty more fitly as a
citizen; his happiness will not be
easily crushed by misfortune; his
spirit will be tempered to meet his
enemies; his mind enriched by the ex-
ample Of his dauntless people, and
exalted by the teachings Of his father
You are living afresh in your boy.
You can still live in him after your
soul has passed to its God. The pride
you feel in him is the pride you feel
in your youth when you won some Of
the prizes of life. You do not want
your ideas to die with you. You want
them to survive-to pass onward
through this generation with your
son-and be left by him to the one
who comes after him. You have but
your faith to sustain you-but this
faith has descended to you from a line
Of Irish dead reaching back through
forty generations. BY introducing
your boy into the A. o. H. you remove
him from dangerous isolation, and
place him among those who will
strengthen his faculties, share in the
defense Of his rights, offer him the ad.
vantages Of social intercourse in an
atmosphere of understanding, and en-
able him to be proud that he is your
son.

These deficits are made good out
of the profits of the Methodist Book
Concern, which nets about $250,000
per year. 1t is as IL the Catholic
Church should own the book publish
ing business of Benziger Bros, p. ].
Kennedy & Sons, John Murphy COM
pany, and Diedrich-Schaeffer company.
and out of the profits of these con-
Germs give the Catholic press Of the
country a subsidy of 100000 year
for the risks and losses they incur
doing all the good they do.
But the Catholic CHURCH is not
obliged to meet such losses. The
great majority of Catholic papers con-
tinue to be published by the efforts
and enterprise Of more or less jealous
Catholic laymen, without burden to
the Hierarchy or clergy.
This is great advantage; and the
work is fairly we'll done; perhaps as
we'll as If the Church itself undertook
to publish these papers. Some lay
men of great ability have engaged in
Catholic newspaper work, as may be
evidenced by their subsequent success
in other lines, after leaving the field
of Catholic journalism. One grew
wealthy as banker, ono became u. 8.
senator and others congressman,
mayors and judges. We have known
mon, like the late william A. King
(who gave his life work to the Buffalo
Catholic Union and Times). Of such
practical ability as. would warrant
them in becoming successful heads Of
great metropolitan dailies. They, no
doubt. derived degree Of satisfaction
from the nature of their work: though
many of them have spoken of some
trials and ingratitudes which need not
have been added to their burdens, but
which they bore philosophically as
part of the game. Even such men as
Brownson and MacMaster would speak
rather bitterly of this phase. We end
with the toast:
All honor to these editors and pub
fishers who have thus co.operated in
the spread of Catholic truth and the
defense of the true faith!

SHkS-,Markes
Siueeish; Jobbers Shade Prices

Many Of the smaller jobbers Of silks
and few Of the larger ones are shad-
ing prices to induce business in the
present sluggish market. For the past
month the purchases of retailers have
been exceptionally light, while the gar
ment manufacturing trade, in the main,
has neglected the silk goods market
altogether Stocks have been accumu-
lating in the hands Of the jobbcrs. The
light demand plus the higher rates be-
ing charged by bankers for discounting
commercial paper and the disposition
OF bankers generally to be conserva-
tiye in extending credits to carry silk
goods, are the chief reasons for the
price concessions by the jobbers now.
Big manufacturers arc holding firm
and some OF them arc talking of higher
prices for fall silks. At the same time
there is reluctance among the pro
ducers toward Offering new lines OF
silks for use next fall and winter. They
are holding up the booking of future
orders pending developments which they
feel are slowly working their way to {.
head in the market.
If the present disposition of silk buy
ers to purchase only small quantities
continues general and rapid unloading
ot silks by the jobbers is expected
While most of the large manufac turers
have extremely small stocks or hand
orders they have on their books arc be-
ginning TO ram out. If new orders do
no. materialize they must either close

COTTONS--Business
in Unfinished Goods Dull

More than the usual Monday quiet
prevailed yesterday in the gray, or un-
tn;shed. goods market, while business
in finished goods apparently ran as
strongly as ever. Some of the larger
d;sfributors who have been looking for
sharp break in the market for the
vast two weeks, We're more optimistic
Yesterday. The fact that retailers and
;obbers continue TO bid for finished
Goods is the most bullish argument the
market has at present, and the most
frequent topic OF conversation in the
Offices of mill agents and commission
houses.
Big distributors who have figured up
,beir January business report that it
was a record breaker in dollars and
cents. although the yardage sold was
under that of the closing months of
las, year. A few of the jobbers from
other cities are still in the market
irving TO place orders for many
varieties OF goods, principally fannels
.nd ginghams. One of the big distri-
butors Of these who named prices last
week said that all orders we're con-
4rmcd in two days and that he had
heen compelled to cut these orders
about 80 per cent. because of the esti-
mated low production of his mills.
Reports from Eastern and Southern
mills show a decrease in production
and a further decrease is looked for
with the approach of spring. While
the lessened production IS used as an
argument for still higher prices by
some sellers, others are inclined to the
theory that curtailed consumption be-
cause Of extremely high prices will
more than Offset the lower yardage pro-
dGced.
