MOCK HEALERS.

Paris, we are informed, is in the
throes of mountaineering thrill oc-
casioned by the visit, on the invitation
of several American society women,
of a mental healer whose lectures and
demonstrations have caught on"
The healer claims to be able ito scat
ter the mists of misconception for
others from everything with which
they come in contact" and Large and
representative" audiences, it appears
are busy cultivating a conception of
the mental heaIer's powers, which may
not lose in effect if certain misti-
ness is allowed to remain. Mental
healing is a cult which affords more
opportunity for the quack than did
ever that of the nostrum. The herb
alist is a healthy person compared
with the emanation of the Eddy dis
| ease, as it has been very discerning
| ly termed We are not sure that the
witch's recipe, frogs leg or live spi-
! der is not to be preferred to it's mod
ern equivalent, for after all, the mind
| is mans nobler part, and it would be
| better that the body took the risk.
The Mock Healer is sign of the
| times. We love to be told that evils
don't exist, lest we be called upon to
| bear one another's burdens-and in a
less agreeable and remunerative way
than by becoming the rage on Pari'
sian platform. Still, the Mock Healer
is. after all, parasite, and it is the
body upon which he battens that
should be dealt with-by healers
whom society women are likely to
overlook.

"slNG A SONG OF SIX PENCE"

You all know the old "Sing Song
of Six Pence" Have you ever read
what it meant? The four-and-twenty
black birds represent twenty-four
hours. The bottom of the pie is the
world; the top crust is the sky that
over-arches it. The opening of the pie
is day-dawn, when the birds begin to
sing, and surely such sight is "a
dainty dish to set before the king"
The king who is represented as sit
ting in his parlor counting his money,
is the sun; while the gold pieces that
slip through his fingers are golden
sunshine. The queen, who sits in the
dark kitchen, is the moon, and the
honey with which she regales herself
is the moonlight. The industrious
maid who is in the garden at work
before the king-the sun-has risen,
the day-dawn, the clothes she hangs
out are clouds, while the bird which
so tragically ends the song by nip.
ping off her nose" is the hour of sun
set. So we have the whole day in q
nip

BUNGALOWS BUILT BY BIRDS.

Arbor-like bungalows are built by
Australian bower birds. These bunga-
lows are decorated by the birds with
flowers and other bright objects.
Sometimes one bird will move a
flower placed in position by fellow.
The result is a free fight, for none of
the birds will tolerate interference or
criticism.
There are several different kinds of
bungalows, and each is built by va
riety of the bower bird. These struc-
lures have nothing whatever to 90
with the birds nests. There is gar
den in front of the bungalow, and
great attention is paid to keeping this
fresh. Some of the birds prefer
shells as garden decoration; others

BRIDES IN BENGAL.

June, the month of roses, is by pop
ular custom dedicated to the blushing
bride, says The Bengalese. In Bengal
however, June days are anything but
perfect, for the rainy season is then
beginning. 1t is rather the period
from Christmas until Lent, when the
skies are clear and not too hot, that
the Bengal bride favors for the day
of her marriage. One Of the mission
aries describes the native marriage
customs:
The day before the marriage the
couples come to confession. AS even
ing approaches the sounds of revelry
begin to rise, especially the noise OF
the tom-tom bands. If we allowed 1T,
the revelry would keep up all night,
but a rule has been made that all
noise and singing must stop at 10
o'clock. under pain of suffering the
imposition of fine.
On the morning of the marriage,
long before Mass time, the discordant
tom-toms rend the air and make fur
Their sleep impossible. The parties to
be married assemble, the bride carried
by coolies in a little cage of bamboo,
the groom riding on pony. The
ever-present band makes the progress
of the party known to all the village
Five or six boys carrying rods be-
decked with paper flowers precede
The groom is usually in a silk shirt,
white dhuti, shoes and socks, with a
brilliant shawl over his shoulders.
The bride wears a bright silk sari,
huge anklets and bracelets, and pic
turesque hair ornaments, the whole
effect marred by a sort of bonnet
woven about the head with yellow
flowers. At the ceremony the groom
comes boldly forth, but the bride acts
as if she were approaching her exc
cution, and answers the questions in
a whisper. When she signs her name
it is as if the signature were her
death warrant. When all is finished
the homeward procession begins, the
band strikes up it's discord, the
couple gets into a palky carried by
four stout coolies, and away they go
to spend the day in feasting, leaving
the priest to mediate on some PEG.

DREAMS COME TRUE.
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Or. James Henderson,

Sure, didn't you tell me when dreams
come true
I'd be buried thousand years?
Aye, didn't you tell mean now tits
you
Are joying, an thro' your tears.
had more faith than you in Erin,
In Erin's right to be proud and free,
An 'tisn't million years, avick!
An now it is you-an' me?
My heart is too full to cry, ochone
I'm thinkin' of them that's gone,
Thinkin' of them who'd love to joy,
Not you an me alone;
Their graves are green and sunken
in,
Green, in the long ago,
An wouldn't they joy with you an
me
If they could only know?
Tears are sweet as honey, avick!
An it's me that knows it, too,
For dreams are born in heaven above
An sometimes they come true.
An this is the sweetest dream Of all
That was dreamt by host o. men,
A dream they said would never come
true,
Over an over again;
Dream of men whO've lived an died
In Erin, for Erin, true;
Of women who cried with Irish pride
Whose tears were as mornings dew
Oh, God of my heart, it has all come
true!
Oh, joy of my soul, how sweet,
To see a dream that did only seem
Work into a fact complete!
And, Erin walks to the light of day
Out of night of pain,
A dream true born in a radiant morn
If one ne'er be born again.

MAKING IT WELL.
I sat by my window. watching
A dear little lad at nlay.

sat by my window watching
A dear little lad at play,
A bit of the summer sunshine
Dropped down on a winters day.
But ah, for the little laddie
Who trusted path-and fell,
Then came with a wounded finger
For mother to make it we'll.
I kissed it as mothers ever
Have done since the world was new
Brushing the tangled tresses
Away from the eyes of blue
Then l clasped the smiling baby
In passionate embrace
While kissed, with wordless longing
The dear little tear-stained face
And my heart grew faint within me
AS thought of life's rough way,
Of feet that must often stumble
And paths that will lead astray.
Oh, we'll for my little laddie,
One of the world of men,
If mother can kiss the hurt place
And make it all we'll again!

THOUSANDS ARE HOMELESS:
 FLOOD WATERS ARE SPREADING;

NEW ORLEANS, May "A sur vey of the havoc in the Lower Miss issippi Valley, caused by the most disastrous food in history, shows that approximately $50 square miles of land, or equal to the combined areas of the states of Deleware and Rhode Island, is inundated, and 1t is estimated that there are 75,000 homeless or living in flooded houses. The estimates, which are incomplete and unofficial, are based on reports received from the flooded areas of Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi.
 The constantly increasing volume of water is scattered throughout the territory between Memphis and the Mississippi delta and reaches, at some point, far back on both sides of the river.
 Thousands of the homeless are without food and suffering from ex- posture, and untold numbers are the victims of the economic devastation
The Nenana news., 1922-05-02

Fifteen hundred refugees at Har- La, are practically with out food, and the situation is be- coming worse because of the steady arrival of more refugees.
 Many residents of the Black river section are 75 miles from land and the fact that they can be reached only with boats presents a serious situation. 4 thousand refugees in this district are being cared for, five thousand are being cared foE at Rhinehart, La, and a serious food shortage is reported from Is- seuna county, where a large area of land has been under water for six weeks. Supplies are also running low in the district around Yazoo.
 Levee engineers are working hard in anticipation of a further rise ir the river level during the next few days. Thousands of volunteers are searching steadily for marooned ia miles,
