MAKING A MAN.

Hurry the baby as fast as you can,
Hurry him, worry him, make him
man.
Off with his baby clothes, get him in.
pants,
Feed him on brain food and make him
advance.
Hustle him, soon as he's able to walk,
Into a grammar school; cram him
with talk.
Fill his poor head full of figures and
facts,
Keep on a-iamming them in till it
cracks.
Once boys grew at a rational rate,
Now we develop a man while you
wait.
Rush him through college, compel him
to grab
Of every known subject a dip and a
dab
Get him in business and after the
cash,
All by the time he can grow a NOUS
tache.
Let him forget he was ever boy,
Make gold his god and it's jingle his
joy,
Keep him a-hustling and clear out of
breath,
Until he wins-nervous prostration
and death.

AN INTERNATIONAL CATHOLIC

DANTE.

The sixth centenary of the death of
Dante Alighieri will be celebrated at
Ravenna, September IA, 1921 For sew
eral years preparations have been
making in Italy to lend to the event a
splendor commensurate with the influ-
ence of Dante on modern thought. 1t
is proposed, in particular, to restore to
it's original beauty the church of San
francesca, in which for six hundred
years Ravenna has guarded with jeal-
GUS love the remains of the great poet,
writes Bishop Shahan. The World
War has of course interfered with the
plans of Italy's foremost scholars but
their ardor has not been cooled, and

SHAPES OF HAIR.

A Chinaman has round head
Every hair on his head is shaped like
wise. That is to say, cross-section
of it (as seen under the MICROSCOPIC
is circular.
People of our own race have heads
that are more or less oval in form, as
your hat will show. The hairs of your
head are likewise oval in section.
: The negro has an oblong head. Call
it rather an oblique square. Each in
dividual hair of his kinkv wool is OBJ
long square in sections, which, in fact
is the reason why it kinks.
Nobody knows why there should be
this sort of correspondence between
the shape of the head and the shape
of the hair. 1t is just fact in ma
ture.

GIRLS MEN MARRY.

Men are, as a rule, far more prac-
teal than is generally conceded, when
it comes to marriage. True, too many
sacrifice everything for the sake of a
pretty face, but the majority are wiser
in their generation. They see the mis-
takes of others, and take warning.
Beauty fades, wit and cleverness pail,
if they are not backed up with more
solid virtues, and the happiness and
comfort of a home cannot depend on
the power of being amusing. When a
man marries, he wants helpmate, a
woman full of love and sympathy, one
who will take an interest in his well
fare and help him to overcome the
difficulties which he is bound to en-
counter in life.

THoUGHTLEss WORDS.

Let's be careful, when speaking of
others,
To consider well what we say;
Lest in wounding the heart of our
Brothers,
The image of God we should Stay;
For many word that's idly spoken,
Many a bitter tear is shed,
And many a heart is bruised and
broken
By words that were thoughtlessly
said.
Let us always speak kindly of Brother,
Whatever his failings may be;
There are flaws in the life of each
other,
None but the Brother doth see;
In sombre shades of the past still
another
Sad thought we would never recall,
Before We speak in our hearts let's
ponder
Lest DER US dark shadows. may fall.

WOMEN WHO sHIRk DUTY.

A physician who conducts column
of Medical Advice in The Brook
Ign Eagle writes that he receives a
great number of letters from childless
wives who, seeking counsel, disclose
that they have resorted to deliberate
measures to avoid maternity in the
earlier years of married life.
Sometimes the cause for this has
been "our financial circumstances"
sometimes it has been health and
strength unequal to the strain" -"both
damnable lies" the doctor says. The
tragic part of it is that these misguid-
ed young married people have as
sumed to know better than God knows
what is best, have taken upon them
selves fearful responsibility, mar
riage, but have played false
and then few years later, if the fool
ish wife survives the dangerous way
she elects to follow, comes the appal-
ling realization that no children are
to bless the home.

TWO WISE BOYS.

Thirty years ago two Irish immi-
grants employed as porters in New
York warehouses undertook to study
law After working from morning I'M
til night packing goods, loading drays
and making deliveries they sat up un-
til IL o'clock in their rooms in board
ing house reading law books and dis
cussing principles and cases.
The ambitious young men were SO
deeply interested in their night work
that they frequently argued points of
law during leisure moments at the
store, and naturally exposed them
selves to chatting and ridicule. With
Irish wit they parted every thrust and
never lost their tempers.
Their companions nicknamed them
the Judge" and Lawyer John" and
asked them mockingly whether they
thought that merchants would consult
them as lawyers after employing them
as porters.
"They may do it, answered the
Judge" latter we have worked up a
fine criminal practice in keeping out
of the penitentiary night brawlers like
yourselves, who ought to be in their
beds and asleep"
Instead of loading your drays,
said an Incorporate clerk, you stand
there arguing whether an injunction
could not be brought against the firm
for obstructing the sidewalk. You are
your own lawyers and you have fools
for clients"
Judgment may be affirmed, said
Lawyer john" but not without costs
We have borrowed our law books and
we save money by keeping out OF sa
looms. 1t costs us less to fiddle ou1
brains with law than with drink. A
debauch over Blackstone leaves a bet
ter taste in the mouth than a night
septn in carousing.'
So the laugh in the end turned
against the Incorporate clerk. The
young porters knew how to take and
return joke. BY their good humol
they amused everybody in the store
and it was not long before members Of
the firm helped them to get clerkship'
. in law Offices.

TO MAKE MARRIAGE SUCCESS,
TRY THIS.

With bachelors shaking their heads
over the high cost of living and the
records of divorce courts and girls
quoting Tolstoi and Shaw on the bond
age of wives, Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Leh-
der of New Orleans celebrated fifty
years Of happy married life recently
by giving their rules for making mar
riage a success.
Marriage is the greatest institution
on earth, said Mr.. Lender and here
are his rules for making it such:
Meet your wife more than half way
in all things.
Stay at home with her.
Sympathize with her.
Encourage her in her work.
Be ever thoughtful of her, every
need.
Last but not least, give her enough
money for her own expenses and those
of the household
Mrs. Lender says the wife should
turn the first five rules around to ap-
ply to her husband and add these two:
Be thrifty, yet see that he is always
| comfortable at home.
Last but not least do not nag.
The Lenders were married Febru.
airy rs, 1871. They had seven daugh
ters, six of whom are living, and sever
| grandchildren. Mr.. Lender is 78 years
| old, his wife is two years younger. Fol-
many years Mr.. Lender followed the
L Z 1.
in the local car shops since the street
cars began to operate. Recently he
retired from active business.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1921-03-26

They reverse the maxim-'Duty be-
fore pleasure
They do not think it worth while to
save nickels and dimes.
They try to do what others expect
of them, not what they can afford.
They never dreamed that mort
gage on their home could ever turn
them out of doors.
They think it will be time enough
to begin to save for rainy day when
the rainy day comes.
On six-hundred-dollar income they
try to compete in appearance with a
and-dollar-a-year neighbor.
They subscribe for everything that
comes along-organs, lightning rods,
misunderstanding they can pay for
on the installment plan.
They have not been able to make
much in the business they understand
best, but think that they can make a
fortune by investing in something
they know nothing about, especially
if it is far away.

THE RUNAWAY SUITCASE.

AS the two sisters stood waiting for
the street car, it was easily seen that
they were just from the train. Each
carried pocketbook and umbrella and
each had a straw suit case packed till
it's sides bulged. For weeks visit a
trunk had seemed unnecessary, and
the girls had succeeded in compress
ing good deal into comparatively
limited space.
They had reached the city consid-
erably earlier than they had expected,
owing to the fact that the east-bound
train had been an hour late, so that
they had been able to take it instead
of waiting for the next train, an hour
later. Roberta had suggested tele-
graphing. Marie had thought it would
be fun to take the family by surprise.
They both knew the city well. They
stood in front of the station, waiting
for their car, within the little enclos-
ure rallied off for that purpose.
Don't you think you're standing
a. little closer" asked Roberta, the
prudent.
As a rule, Marie would only have
smiled and done as she pleased. But
it had happened that several times
during the day, Roberta had made
such little suggestions, and for some
reason this proved one too many. Ma
RE flashed out impatiently:
II only thought
Eyes, know you always think
that to be safe you've got to get away
from things. And that's not neces-
sary. I don't intend to be run over
any more than you do, but an inch
back of the danger line is as good as a
mile"
A car came along just then, though
not the car for which the girls were
waiting. 1t stopped just below them,
picked up it's passengers, and went on.
AS it turned the corner, the end struck
Marie's suitcase. The car went on
and the case went with it.
Marie shrieked. For an instant she
stood like one paralyZed, then started
in pursuit A policeman farther up
the street lifted his hand in warning.
A chauffeur narrowly avoided run
ming her down, and called after her
Indignantly. Marie never knew of
| the danger she had escaped.
She ran down the track after the
vanishing suit case. Marie was a
| good runner, but she was no match
for the trolley. Halfway down the
first block she stopped to pick up
something. 1t was her blue silk dress
A few steps farther on she came upon
one pair of white gloves, and bronze
slipper.
At the end of the second block
/ someone on the car wished to get of
and rang the bell. The conductor at
tempted to open the rear door and
found that something INSTRUCTED it
He got down and discovered the rem
nants of Marie's suit case. Then he
looked down the track and saw girl
toiling laboriously along, picking III
articles strewn in the cars wake.
The conductor waited for her to ar
rive.
'"Your fault or mine?" was his
greeting as she came up.
/ Mine" said Marie. 81 set it toe
near"
The anticipated visit was not very
pleasant one, after all. Marie's little
wardrobe showed the unfortunate eff
fects of being scraped along the cal
tracks for a couple of blocks. The
blue silk would never be fit to veal
again. The mate to the white glove
had never been found Some gar

HOW TO SELL CANDY.

In the hall of one of the large down
town "skyscrapers" of New York,
stood a boy selling chewing gum and
candy. He was sad looking figure
as he held out his stock for the inspec-
ton of those who passed out, crying,
Candy, Mister" Some laughed at
him, others passed by without even
turning their eyes in his direction.
Joe was becoming discouraged. He
had been there an hour, and had not
sold a cents worth. A crowd of young
girls came out of the elevator laughing
and chatting. 81 Il.

sadly.
"Give me that candy" said Katie,
as crowd of young men approached
them.
"Buy some candy, please" said the
girl with happy smile.
Indeed we WILL" they answered, as
each dived into his pocket and pro-
duced handful of coins.
"How much have you, Katie?" asked
Mabel, after the customers had gone.
Let me see; five, ten, fifty, a dollar
and a half. My, but that is fine!"
The bright smile was on the boys
face as Katie counted the money into
his hand.
"Now we will buy some candy" said
Maude.
Eyes, yes" cried the girls.
"Joe, you ask me to buy candy. You
must be cheerful, and, above all, polite
| if you want to succeed
Joe laughed for joy, His face lit UP
with enthusiasm and it was far diff
ferent little boy who walked up to the
girls, and politely lifting his hat, said:

"Of course, we will" said the girls
