IDEAS OF BEAUTY.

Every country has its ideas of
beauty. The Japanese women are
considered lovely when they are proud
possessors of gilded teeth; in India
they believe that red-colored teeth are
assets to beauty.
In Greenland, women paint their
faces with blue and yellow colors, and
the prettiest Muscovite girl has to
smear crude red and white paint up
on her fresh skin if she wishes to be
belle. Chinese women must have
small feet. In Persia, hooked nose
is the most essential part of both mas
culine and feminine beauty, and in a
family with several sons the shape of
the nose is decisive in the choice of
the principal heir. ~. ,
Red hair in Persia is most unpop-
ular, and it's unhappy owner invaria-
bly, dyes it. In Turkey, red hair is
considered most beautiful, and the
women use henna to change the color
of the raven black locks with which
nature has endowed them.
In some countries, mothers flatten
the noses of their children to make
them more attractive, and some press
the heads of the newborn babes be-
tween boards to give them an elon-
gated or square form. In China,
where most eyes are narrow and long,
narrow but round eye is consid.
cred particularly beautiful. Turkish
| women paint their eyebrows with
gold color, while the Chinese pull
them out to be charming. -
I So it goes! Beauty seems not to
be a definite thing, but an intangible
quality that depends more or less
upon the national viewpoint. There
fore, if we are without honor as 8
beauty in our country it is possible
that we might appear as a vision o.
loneliness in some land other thar
our own.

THE MODEL DAD.

Lives there a dad with soul so dead
Who never to his son hath said:
"When l was your age l would run
To do the things had to do;
I never till my work was done
Found any pleasure to pursue;
My parents never had to scold,
And every rule they ever made
For me was honestly obeyed;
I never frowned and never told
A falsehood when l was boy;
/ gave my parents daily joy
BY doing we'll and being kind.
BY being truthful and polite;
ct, My speech was, proper and refined
My heart contained no room fol
spite!"
If such there be, go mark hin
we'll,
For he's a bird! But none sucl
dwell,
Upon this earth-unknown, unsung,
Such wonders all die very young.

A BEAUTIFUL FLOWER OF CON.
STANTINoPLE.

The garden of souls contains many
varieties of flowers. The Divine
Gardener knows how, even in the
midst of thorns, to find delicate buds
that He hastens to transplant, with
love, to the eternal parterres.
In the early part of last year He
found one such, fresh and bright,
among the older pupils Of the Oblate
Sisters Of the Assumption at Haidar-
Pacha, writes Rev. Clement LANCE.
The girl was rose whose petals
fell in her first springtime, leaving
on earth souvenir of sweetest per-
fume. She wrote some lines fifty at
the most), while on her bed of suf-
fering, for her confessor to read. He
sent them to the Bulletin Of Constan-
tinople.
They are brief indeed, these leaflets
that, she has given us, but how edify-
ing! They are history of her en-
tire life, a life Of twenty years, re-
plete with angelic sentiments, in acts
silent but heroic.
She was of Orthodox Greek par
entage. Her name was Elise Mayro.
gordato. She entered the convent of
the Sisters of the Assumption at
Haidar-Pacha at the age of two and
half years, remaining there till
| fifteen.
She faithfully attended the services
in tho chapel with the Sisters, and en-
| lightened by Grace soon understood
the truths of our religion. An attack
| Of typhoid fever then forced her tc
leave her cherished teachers, and
prevented her from receiving the dip
Iona she had nearly earned.
| God saved her life, and she was
scarcely cured before she began te
find her greatest joy in visiting the
Sisters and assisting at Mass in their
chapel that she loved so much. But
the war drove the Religious away, anG
again she was cruelty deprived Of
their sweet company.
The girl was obliged at certain
epochs -four times year, on the prin

THE CHILD MARTYRS OF AFRICA

It happened in Uganda, during ter
rible and bloody persecution launched
against the converts to Catholicism.
All the Christian children were con.
demned to be burned alive. Each was
bound up in a fagot, made Of wood
and dried grass, which was then to be
set on fire. There were in all fourteen
children. Each in turn was taken, and
after refusing to deny their faith, was
tied up into fagot and given to the
flames.
One child. remained. He was the
son of the village chief. The latter
had hoped that the sight of the
torture of his little companions would
deter him from inviting a similar
fate for himself. The little fellow
commenced to cry. The father, de-
lighted at what he considered sign
of weakening on the part of the child,
said to him: Eyes, you see how
Christians are punished. You are
crying because you are afraid Of be
ing burnt. You will renounce that
horrid religion, won't your
"No, father" answered the child
II am crying because am afraid you
will not let me die for my faith. I am
Christian and I want to be tied UP
in fagot and burned like my com
panions."
The father pleaded with him In
vain. Finally the child was bound
and burnt alive as the others had
been.

There wasn't much to know,
Twas nice to be boy
Some thousand years ago.
Now always there is more to learn
How history does grow!

Should by any chance dream OF the

OLDEST OF NESTS.

A great colony of ospreys, or fish
hawks, built their nests at one time
upon the property of various owners
of land on an island near New York,
a fact that enabled ornithologists to
gather some interesting data with re-
spect to the breeding habits Of this
bird.
One osprey's nest was built upon a
pile of old fence rails, only seven
or eight feet from the ground. 1t had
been added to annually until it's bulk
of sticks, sods, decayed wood, sea
weed and the like amounted to some
thing like three carloads. Two other
nests were built in cedar trees. These
too, had been occupied every year for
many seasons, and had been increased
by the addition of fresh material un
til they filled the whole upper parts oi
the trees. ....

CONTIGUOUS WAS NOT FIRST PRO-
INDICATOR OF GOLDEN RULE.

The present writer has received a
statement, by Ebert H. Gary, of the
Principles and Policies of the U. 5.
Steel Corporation" supposedly for the
enlightenment of the A. F. OF L., re-
Gently in solemn conclave in Denver,
says the Catholic Register. One strik-
ing paragraph forces itself on the at
tention of the reader: 1.-THE United
States Steel Corporation has been
characterized as "a corporation with
a SOUL A soul is controlling in
fluence, possessed by individuals, cor
Nporations or states, which recognizes
3 of equal importance the rights, in
erests and welfare OF themselves
With all others. 1t involves the
onfucius five hundred years before
hrist." Now, l would have a little
larrel with Mr.. Gary, who goes to
nina, where there was no labor
uestion, to prop up his principles and
,Iolicies! According to his analects,
CHI. XIV, n. 13, Confucius was asked
one day principle for all conduct,
and answered, is not mutual good
will such principle? What you do
not want done to yourself, do not do
to others" l am afraid Mr. Gary does
not assiduously read his Bible; for,
about 200 years before Confucius
(who lived from 551 to Ats before
Christi, Tobias (who lived 734 before
Christi among other good advice to
his son, says (ch. Nv, V. 16): See
thou never do to another what thou
wouldst hate to have done to thee by
another" Furthermore, this negative
golden rule is divinely superseded by
the positive one promulgated by the
Savior himself in the Sermon on the
Mount Matt. VII, II and Luke vi, 81 4:
"All things therefore whatsoever you
would that men should do to you, dc
you also to them; for, this is the Law
and the Prophets This is the only
solution of the labor problem, Chris
tan justice and charity. And when
cooperative proft-sharing takes the
place of employers profit-making. a
great step will have been taken to
ward working mems self-manage
ment.
