His mental faculties had given sign of impairment but his growing bodily weak had left doubt that his great life work was its end
 The admiration of Cardinal Gibbons by no means confined within his communion. Nor his aid and counsel sought matters affecting only the church. Statesmen of both parties and of all religions religion at all turned him advice regarding intricate secular problems
 The subjects which have been brought to the attention of the cardinal the varied character. He has been sought by labor leaders and employers. reformers along industrial economic and social lines, and his judgment has accepted by larger of the American people than would abide by that of any other private citizen.

uNMoRAL MOTHER GOOSE

We understand that a certain good lady has expressed regret that the Mother Goose rimes contain no teach ings of morals.
 Come to think of it. it has been a sad omission. In our effort to con tribute always to the uplift of our young-inaSmuch as the old seem to have gotten beyond redemption - we are giving this matter our serious thought. At first blush-and we can not help but blush when we view the lack of moral teachings in Mother Goose, the old vampire-it appears that with but a little effort the Mother Goose verses can be revised in the de- sired direction.
 Right off the bat. if you will excuse the impurity of the expression, we have hastily revamped a couple of the Mother Goose rimes which we present here as sort of tentative amendments to the present fnane and unconstruc- tive verses.
 The first one Is about Old Mother Hubbard and her dog. In order to give moral effect to the verse we have re- vised it as follows:
 "Old Mother Hubbard went to the cup board
 To get her poor dog moral;
 But when she got there the cupboard was bare,
 And so the old dog had to laugh.''
 Before you raise your eyebrows too high. let us hasten to explain that the verse as rewritten really has moral to teach our young. It Is this; He who laughs last laughs best; but old Nick will get him if he keeps it up." ] It is apparent that if the old mother always finds the cupboard bare of morals and the dog must continue to litter then the dog-wen, you can see how 1t would work out. We have also taken the hickory l dickory rime and rewritten Is as fol- | lows:
 | Hickory, Hickory dock, | The mouse ran up the clock. The clock struck one And the mouse eXClaimed: | Gosh! I meant to be home long | before this. The wife will sure hand | it to me this time. But it couldn't be ! helped You know how it is when you
 get into a game with the boys Just another time around! Just another hand around!' | The moral to t'is rime is more | than apparent. We will not insult the
 intelligence of our reader by pointing
 it out.
 These are only two of the verses
 as we have rewritten them. The others will be presented at a later ! date In the meantime we invite the 1 Ico-operation of our reader in revamp- 1 ing Mother Goose to satisfy the good ] lady,

her first attack of heart disease.
1t was while she was preparing to

Amerongen, that she was stricken
with what at the time was believed
to be a fatal attack. That was on
April H. 1920. For few days there
were reports that her death was mo-
mentarily expected but she rallied

such serious condition that the news

Late last autumn, the former prin-
cess condition gradually became
worse and on several occasions her
children were called to Doom, but her
strength was such that she rallied
bravely when the end was believed
imminent. Since the first of this
year it had been known that she was

Last night the patient was only
