In politics Fitz- Simons was an ar
dent Federalist and he was one of the
first to advocate the fundamental
principles of protective tariff sys-
tenn to aid American industries. On
questions that had regard to COM
merce and finance his advice was re-
garded with great respect by both
friends and enemies and found refiec-
ton in the prosperity and economic
progress of the new republic.
Fitz-Simons took an active interest
in the cause of Catholic education and
was one of the founders of George
town College, the oldest Catholic lit
erary establishment of it's type in the
United States, in 1889. Fitz-Simons
lived to see the republic, which he
had helped to establish, well on the
road to world greatness, dying in Phil
adelphia on August 26, 1911, a few
months before the outbreak of the
second struggle with England.

HOW ST. PATRICK HELPED.
CONTINUED from page 81

1t was a solid fact, however, and
before the week was over they ana
Mrs. Keane and her daughter were
settled happily in the big house. The
friendship between the mothers was
repeated in the girls, who got on
together. like sisters. When four
painstaking and conscientious people
work diligently and intelligently at
a business there cannot be a failure.
The boarders, mostly clerks in the
downtown offices, were made SO COM
Portable that they remained on year
after year, thus making the two
friends venture very fair success.
At the end of the fourth year a
married daughter of Mrs. keane's
wrote from South Africa offering a
home to her mother and sister. For
long while Anne Keane resisted
the inducements placed before her.
She had as good home as she need
ed, and, at her time of life, why
should she pull up stakes and face a
strange country? But she was not
without her share of strong worldly
sense, and she knew that in rejecting
this offer she was possibly shutting
out prosperous and happy future for
the girl So she yielded. But she was

THE SINGING OF OLD IRELAND.

(To DR.. Helen Hughes Hielscher)
The singing of old Ireland hear it
once again
In the Kiss of Irish sunshine and the
Tilt of Irish rain,
The smell of Irish rosies and the
dreams of Ireland there,
With the sorrow in her old heart and
the ashes in her hair,
The spell of Irish places and the
sweetness of the breeze
That comes DER all the turmoil from
the lovely Irish seas;
The singing of old Ireland and how
fine it is and sweet
With the laughing heart of Ireland and
the reel of Irish feet.
The singing of old Ireland-ah, the
rose is in it, men,
The moors are bright with blossoms
~ and the seas are sweet again;
The primrose dots the borders of
each little Irish lane,
And how sweet the Irish sunshine
and how sweet the Irish rain.
The singing of old Ireland that can
take us back tonight,
To the Irish homes of beauty and the
Irish hearts of light,
To the Irish soul of splendor that no
soul can match on earth
In majesty, in purity, in melody and
mirth.

SILENCE.

They who can be silent when they
are tempted to say something cutting
or reproving possess a strong sword
of defense against things to which
others yield in a way that means their
defeat. 1t is a great thing to have
such perfect control of the tongue
that one will not allow it to lead one
into talking when it should keep still.
A very serene old man once told me
that he felt that he had kept great
deal of anger out of the world simply
by not answering back He explain
ed this by adding:
"You see if you never answer back
an angry person his wrath will die
out lots quicker than if you answer
back in his own kind. Keeping still
yourself is one of the best ways in
the world to keep mad folks from get
ting madden and madden"
Nothing is more useless than to try
to argue with an angry person. Sc
rene silence on our part will surely
lessen the angry words of others.

DOROTHY ROSE.

Dorothy Rose had turned-up nose,
Did she worry about it, do you sup.
pose?
Oh, no; but plan she began to hatch
To make the rest of her features
match.
First of all, she trained her eyes,
Turning them up to the sunny skies,
Look at the mud and dust, not she!
Nothing but sunshine would Dorothy
see.
A flower that droops has begun &c
wilt,
So I'D went her chin, with saucy tilt
An ounce of pluck's worth pound Of
sigh,
And courage comes with head held
high.
Lastly, her lips turned their corners
up,
Brimming with smiles like a rosy cup
Oh, charming child is Dorothy Rose
And it all began with a turned-ul
nose!

MILES sTANDIsH A CATHOLIC.

The Springfield Republican thinks
that the Pilgrim tercentenary ought
to contribute something to the fund
of American historical knowledge. 1t
welcomes the promise, held out by a
prominent clergyman in Plymouth"
to prove definitely that Miles Stand
ish was Catholic, says the Catholic
Transcript. The Republican says:
"The idea, of course, is not new; but
fresh evidence would be welcomed"
Standish had courage to profess the
Catholic religion in the company in
which he found himself. A Catholic
among the Puritans was like white
bear on the equator, or like monkey
at the Pole. Yet John Abbott Good
win, according to the Springfield Re-
publican, declares that for thilty-six
years, Miles Standish was the Pill
grims' most chivalrous, devoted and
modest associate He fought for the
Pilgrims, nursed their sick, and of his
substance helped to free the Colony
from the control of not wholly SYM
pathetic directorate in London" And
then the Republican adds: This man
never belonged to the Pilgrims
Church"

CHOOSE THE BEAUTIFUL WAY.

Thrice blessed are they who are
pleasant to live with. They are a
blessing to themselves, to those with
whom they live, and to the world at
large. Along this line, thoughtful
writer has said most truly: There
is a beautiful and an ugly way in
which to say almost everything, and
happiness depends on which way we
take. You can upset a person for a
whole day by the harsh way in which
you may call him in the morning, or
you may give him beautiful start by
the cheeriness of your greeting. So
not only in the words, but in all the
little common courtesies and duties
of life, think of the beautiful way of
doing EACH"

ALWAYS IRELAND.

o Ireland how love you!
Gem of the sunlit sea!
IT'S said your grave they're making,
Your children's lives they're taking,
And Irish hearts are breaking,
Because they would be free.
Land of the crimson sunsets!
Land of the weeping sky!
Your story down the ages.
Is writ of saints and sages,
And martyrs grace your pages,
And yet must Ireland die:
Land of the chastest women!
Land of the bravest men!
With all your ancient glory,
In war and song and story,
Why England's bayonets CORY
In Irish hill and glen?
o speak We sons of Ireland,
And you of alien birth!
Say, why this frightful pillage,
In Irish town and village,
In grove and bog and tillage-
Has justice fed the earth?
Bend down and comfort Erin,
o Christ, from heaven above
With Ireland's manhood dying,
Her orphaned children crying,
And British statesmen lying
Oh, fate of the land l love!
Fight on and do not falter,
Knights of my native land!
When England kneels dependent,
With all her train attendant"
Will Ireland stand Respondent,
A nation proud and grand.

FITz-sIMoNs, AMERICAN PATRIOT

Thomas Fitz-Simons, the first Cath
Ollie to be nominated for public Of
fee in Pennsylvania, and member
of the first congress of the United
States, has just claim to be placed
in the front rank of those patriotic
Catholics and Irishmen who contrib
uted to the foundation of this govern
ment
Fitz-Simons was born in Ireland in
1741. While there is no positive data
regarding the time at which he emf
grated to the United States, church
records of Philadelphia show that he
was there in 1853. Five years later
he married Catherine, the sister of
George Meade, with whom he was as
ISOLATED in business as a merchant
The young Irishman took a promi-
nent part in the events that led up to
the revolt of the colonists against
England. He was deputy at the con-
ference which met at Carpenters
Hail. Philadelphia, and which brought
about the meeting of the Continental
Congress on September 4, 1774., Of
this Continental Congress, Fitz-Sim-
ons was respected member. In July
of the same year he was elected a
provincial deputy, the first instance of
Catholic being named for public
Office in Pennsylvania.
Fitz-Simons was not only a states
man, but military leader He organ
! lied d company of militia and took
part in the Trenton campaign, later
returning to Philadelphia, where, with
other merchants, he provided for the
wants of the revolutionary armies.
He was elected member and was
| a leader in the deliberations of the
Congress of the Old Confederacy, and,
when in May, 1857, the convention
met in Philadelphia to frame the Con-
stitution of the United States, Fitz-
Simons and Daniel Carroll of Mary
land were the only Catholic members
Under this Constitution he was elect.
ed a member of the first Congress of
the United States and in it served on
| the ways and means committee. He
was reelected to the second and third
Congresses, but was defeated for the
| fourth in 1874, defeat that closed
| his political career. In the Philadel
phia convention he had stood against
universal suffrage and in favor of lin.
iting the voting power to freeholders
| At his defeat, Madison was prompted
to write to Jefferson that the failure
of Fitz-Simons in the election was a
"stinging blow for the aristocracy."
| Fitz-Simons was one of four lay
men, including Charles and Daniel
Carroll of Maryland and Dominic
Lynch of New York, who signed an
address of congratulations to George
Washington, which was presented to
him by the Catholics of the country
when he was inaugurated the first
president.
To this document Washington made
his memorable reply, ITO the Roman
Catholics of the United States,' the
original of which is still preserved ir
the archives of the Archbishop of Bal
timore and in which he declares: 81

WHY WRITE DULL LETTERS?

Most people think before they speak,
but only a few think before they write.
l have a friend, says a writer in
London Answers, and she is a girl
who always keeps her frienas; partly,
l am sure, because, however far away
they are, it is never too much trouble
to write them long and interesting let
ters Thus, though miles may stretch
between them, she can always keep
her friends very near to her in
thought.
She does not dash off anything that
comes into her head: she always con-
siders her friends point of view. If
the particular friend she is writing to
is fond of sport she writes of it; fond
of books, then the latest books are
discussed; if music is favorite, then
music finds place in her letter. And
always through them all there runs a
little vein of humor.
So many people suffer from lack of
tact. For instance, some time ago,
when my mother was about to under
go a very serious operation, it became
necessary to censor her correspond
ence-for the simple reason that some
of it was too depressing for words.
One very well-meaning old lady
wrote saying how sorry she was to
hear of my mothers great misfortune
and how it often happened that very
active women ended their days as
bedridden invalids. And how she once
knew of lady who caught cold aft
er similar operation and contracted
some awful kind of incurable "itis!'

SLEEP CHILDREN NEED.

Medical authorities and others
agree that school children need the
following amount Of sleep:
Four years, IL hours; to Z years,
II to II hours: to II years, to 10
hours; IA to 10 years, to 10 hours.
Children grow mainly while sleep
ing or resting. Do you want your
children to be stunted?
Tired children learn badly, make
little progress at school, and often
drift to the bottom of the class. Do
you want your child to grow up stu
