TRADE MARKS OF CULTURE.

Women who are forced to earn their
daily bread by washing for their more
fortunate sisters seem to be far be-
low the standard which our girl-grad-
yates demand of a-lady.
Kid-glove bankers, salaried officials,
and pedigreed mobiles, who live in the
mansions of our restricted districts,
might feel insulted if we dared to
call some of our street-sweepers and
garbage-collector gentlemen.
If nothing but the JOB makes a man,
the work he does is worth more than
his name, writes Lordman. The poor.

great and respected before the Saxon

Grecian eloquence still flourished at

against her yoke. Twice that Church

Twice she came forth from the con.

wounds, but with the life principle
strong within her. When we reflect
on the tremendous assaults she has
survived, we find it difficult to con-
ceive in what way she is to perish.

The history of that Church joins to-

civilization. No other institution is
left standing which carries the mind
back to the times when the smoke of
sacrifice rose from the Pantheon.
I. The prOudest Royal Houses
are but of yesterday when compared
with the line of the Supreme Pontiffs.
That line we trace back in an ur-
broken series from the Pope who
crowned Napoleon in the nineteenth
century to the Pope who crowned
Pepin in the eighth; and far beyond
the time of Pepin the august dynasty
extends, till it is lost in the twilight
of fable. The republic of Venice came
next in antiquity. But the republic
of Venice was modern when compar-

HOW LAYMEN CAN HELP. THE
PRIEST.

Mgr Binet, Bishop of Scissors, has
addressed d Pastoral Letter to his
clergy inviting them to look closely
into the question of lay auXiliaries.
The following passages of the Pastoral
are particularly expressive of the pref
ate's desires in this regard:
Even as, in missionary countries,
there are catechists, men and women
under the direction of an official in
stitution, who supply in that measure
permitted to them, in the absence of
the missionary, the works of that mis-
sionary-so we desire that in every
locality of the diocese where no parish
priest resides, and also in the hamlets
that are removed from the presbytery,
there should be lay auxiliaries who
shall carry on the correspondence be-
tween the parishioners and the priests,
and who shall take their place so far
as it is possible.
~"In- the functions entrusted by the
priest to the auxiliaries, we place in
the front rank watchfulness over the
sick and the baptism of infants whose
state is uncertain. The auxiliary
should be vigilant and should see that
the priest is summoned when his min
istry becomes imperative.
After the care of the sick, comes
pious vigilance exercised over the
tabernacles where the Holy Eucharist
is preserved. If the auxiliaries of the
diocese should be willing to go to the
limits of their generosity, they should
be willing to preside in the church or
chapel at certain pious reunions and
exercises on Sunday which must sup
ply for the absence of the more sacred
Offices. They may read the Prayers
at Mass in the morning, and lead in
the evening the chanting of Vespers,
offer prayers for devotions before the
Most Holy Sacrament and chant the
. appropriate hymns. A certain meas
nre of these devout exercises may
even be conducted under the leader
ship of the auxiliaries in presence OF
1he parish priest. The fidelity and
attachment of the Christians on the
far missions to these practices will
serve them as models.
Finally, what is far more import.
ant-the catechism should be taught
by these auxiliaries. The religious ig-
norance of children in country places
is very great in spite of the assiduity
sof priests to give them religious in
struction. In the localities removed
from the presbytery, this ignorance
passes all that can be imagined
Mgr. Binet makes strong plea, on
closing, for the voluntary assistance
of collaborators who shall take upon
themselves the role of catechists.

FOUR RULES FOR A HAPPY MAR.
RAGE.

Judge Florence e. Allen of Cleve-
land. perhaps Americas most widely
known woman jurist, has four rules
for happy marriages. They are:
/. The wife should have a regular
allowance. Money matters cause
many divorces.
2. The husband should make a bust
ness partner of his wife. She should
share his confidence in all matters.
8. The wife should be sympathetic.
4. The wife should never nag her
husband. She should work with him.
Applying her four rules, Judge
Allen offers some pertinent opinions
on the divorce evil" in America:
"Hasty marriages are the most COM
mon cause of divorce. Young people
today marry hastily, not realizing the
personal responsibility. They are
ready to quit at the first quarrel.
Women sometimes make the lives
of their husbands miserable by nag
ging."

The nobility of your pedigree is a
circumstance over which you have no
control; the position you may hold,
and your rank in society may be due
to many things besides yourself, but
your culture depends upon you.
Unfortunately, too, many people are
only veneered with religion; these are
superbly cultured and ideally moral
when sitting in judgment upon others.
The saints of God are recruited
from all the walks of life; these will
give us tip for the acquiring and
meaning of true culture.
Ii you are interested, and really
care to have some of this culture, look
up the lives of ST. Elizabeth of Hun
gary, st. Catherine of Siena or st.
Francis of Assist. Among these, and
others like them, you'll find the trade
mark of real culture-reffnement SIM
plicity, wealth and poverty, education,
religion, etc.--but always-malice to-
ward none, charity for everybody, and

DR.. James Henderson,
The hills of Down are not as high as
those of "Himilay,"
But they grow sweeter to my heart
and greener every day.
At night when moons come up the
sea, and blink. on shore and
town,
I'm travelling back in dreams, alack!
To see the hills of Down.
The hills of Down in Ireland, where
Howth is looking on
The sea that seems SO smiling, sweet
and in an Irish dawn;
They're not SO high nor yet so bold
as those of "Himilay."
But God! We see them in our dream
a thousand miles away!
o stored days of Ireland In that sweet
long ago,
When music rang. tho hearts did
break,
And Ireland nursed her woe,
Just call us back again to see the
sunrise sweet and fair,
And to the loving green boreens that
winding go DER there.
And let us hear the linnet's note, and
too, the thrusl's call,
For they will seem the sweeter now
since lifted is the pail;
Since Erin smiles so sweet again and
hate has lost her crown,
Oh, sure the light must shine full
bright upon the hills OF Down.
