Merning Star and Catholic Messenger. NEW OBLEANS. UN)AT. FEBBUARY 1. 1874. JUVENILE COLUMN. cr In FRAN ,. THE sUOEMAKER. ki Frank's father and grandfather were ei weavers, and as he was an only son, they a thought it a matter of course that Frank hi should become the same and learn the be business from his father. And yet Frank co wanted to become a shoemaker, and gave of his parents no rest till they had given ti their consent. I will now tell you why be si wished so muchb to be a shoemaker. His T parents could not anderstand it for many a years.; and when they bad grown old and b he was able to support them, he cared for ml them most tenderly as long as they lived, si and told them also why be had become a o: shoemaker. When Frank was a little boy, n he expected to be a weaver like his father. w He went to school, and like most boys was a diligent and then again indolent. At home ii he was not very good, and as his father to dealt severely with every act of disobe- p dience, it happened that Frank was often ti punished. He had but few pleasures; p often his parents earned bat little; often their means were hardly dsufficient to boy o food for the little family, and their cloth- -a ing at times was very scanty. The lihap q piest days in Frank's life were when the e teacher took an excursion with his scholars t into the country. He looked forward to ii this time with delight. Sundays also made p a little change in his dreary life. In the a forenoon he went to Mass with his parents, i in the afternoon to Vespers. This he en- ea joyed very much; but when he returned I home and had to sit still to learn the long a lesson his father had given him, and which a was so hard for him to commit to memory, he thought the week-days were better than i Snnday. Frank was twelve years old when the teacher one Saturday told his class to prepare for next Wednesday to take a long a excursion. At home he was very faithful, and begged his mother to fix his Sunday Scl thes as well as possible. All was ready 1 in dne time-but shoes were wanting. I What could be done! The father said Frank could go without sboes; and would not be the only one. Tuesday came. To- i morrow the excursion was to be. Then the teacher sent Frank with a note to the house of a rich gentleman. He rang the I bell, entered and handed the note, but had to wait alone in the hall for an an swer. He look around and saw a table with several pairs of nice shoes, and a pair of boots. "Oh," thought Frank, " these boots! If they were only mine. They surely would fit !" A servant appeared with the reply just then nod Frank was left alone again. What did he do He took the boots and hastened into the streets ! When he found himself in the open air, he hardly knew what had become of him. His con science burned like fire and said : " Thou hast stolen !" Then he looked again at the boots and thought: "To-morrow I might wear them-that is all I want them for. If I carry them back secretly, it will not be stealing. One day cannot hurt them much." - "But if my father should find it out !" The fearful voice of self-accusation and eeausing thoughts warred within. When he had reached home, the first thing was to hide the boots in the stable. 0, how restless his sleep was all night ! In every new dream he saw the boots before him. Early in the morning Frank hurried to reach the school-bonse. Before leaving home, he went to the stable and took the boots, and after walking a abort distance he put them on. He entered the school house well-dressed. All were happy, but several of them were is their bare feet. Frank was the only one with boots-and not happy. Upon the road the boys sang and jumped, the girls gathered flowers and made garlands and were fall of joy. Frank looked with envy upon the cheerful boys with bare feet, and thought again and again : "Oh, if it were not for these boots !" When one and another boy looked down, he was frightened and dreaded of being asked where he had got the nice boots. At last-at last evening came. Frank came home all tired out, he took off the boots before entering the Louse, and thought; "Oh that I had never seen them !" But when he looked at them he noticed with terror, that they were torn ! They could not be returned-and if that was impossible-he had stolen I Borrowfally he went to bed. He could not pray. The whole night through fear ful dreams haunted him, and when he awoke in the morning and heard people talk, he imagined something wonld be said In regard to the boots. Byday and night he was distarbed by the thought t would come to light. The severity of hi father the sorrow of his mother, the dis grace before the people-all stood in the strongest light before his soul. In this state of feelings he tbrew the boots into the water. Several times he was ready to go to the rich gentleman to confess all to him. But he did not do it. Whenever he had to pass his house, he tried to quiet his concience with good resolations for the future, but he was not happy. He made up his mind to become a shoemaker, and then the first pair of boots he made should be for the gentleman. Then he would ask his pardon. This was the reason why Frank gave his parents no rest, till they gave their con sent and took him to a shoemaker to lqrn that trade. The miater praised FrankTor his faithfnlness, and he truly deserved it, for he worked hard. When he was ad vanced. his first work was to make a pair of fioe boots. Now the conflict commenc ed afresh. Should he confess what nobody knew, and no one accused him of f And yet he felt that all-seeing eye of God in his heart. No! he must efface that black stain. Now he asked God earnestly for true courage, and with beating heart he went one night to the gentleman, asked him to accept the pair of boots he had made, and deliver him from his guilt. - The gentleman was greatly sarprised; he had never heard a word about the mis sing boots. Frank told all-his sins-his fears-his weight of care, and how that on account of these he had become a shoemaker. The, gentleman accepted the boots, and was so pleased with Frank's sincerity that when he had learned his trade he aeeisted him to begin bnsiness for himself. Blessing and peace dwelt un der his roof, and he could provide for his dear parents in their old age. Frank - thanks God day by day: Who fesirU - ns e and bleses us, if rwe n d. * lli,n. - ~* The Papar-oney of Japan. p [From Appleton's Joarnaal. a The uses of paper in Japan are ludi- se crously various. It is used in daily life, of in the drawing-room, the nursery, and the $7 kitchen, in ways that are dark to a for- cil eigner. A Japanese is never at a loss for Cc a string, a sheet for a letter, a wrapper, a P( handkerchief, a towel, or a plaster. In his Ca bosom isa roll of paper, and what paper pl can accomplish is known only to the native of Japan. When little Yezaburo or Kin- w taro eouts his finger, a bandage is applied w and tears are dried with the same article. fa The exquisitely-dressed young lady takes ci a roll of paper from her girdle, and lo I it bi becomes a handkerchief. Pass into the cl street on a rainy day in Yeddo, and you-r a eee for miles a panorama of moving disks t1 of paper. Both umbrellas and parasols are " made of paper, and a snit of oiled and t; water-proof clothes, hat, coat, trousers, b and shoes, may be bought almost anywhere al in Japan. Boxds, pipe-cases, twnlae, dishes, ft tea-trays, carpets, chimneys, roasting- J pass for firing tea, windows, doors, parti- e tions, and screens, are everywhere made of G paper. fi The paneled walls of houses are made d of hardened paper-pulp. Old Japanese v armor is largely made of compressed lao- c quered paper. Perhaps Europeans adopt a ed the custom of papering the walls of ti their houses from these people. The dwel- t lingsof the better classes of the Japanese a people are always papered, though the J sheets used are not over a foot or eighteen e inches square. They are polished, silver- e ed, gilded, colored, or printed, with birds, t flowers, animals, and many tasteful de f signs. In looking over a paper-dealer's e sample book in Yeddo, one rarely sees a v "loud" or uncouth pattern, always except- t ing that of the dragon, in which the nor- d mal Japanese doth so delight. I The crowning utility of this fabric is its o use as money. The employment of paper t as money is fondly believed to be the in vention of modern civilized nations. It t was known to the Chinese before the Christain era. The European alchemists 1 toiled for centuries to transmute lead into I gold. The Chinese tried paper, and it 1 I became money. The latest results of - scholarship date the first issue of paper- e money in China at 119 B- C.. The custom t a wis imitated at an early age in Japan, a though the exact date at which the Japan Sese tried this sort of financiering cannot 1 - be so accurately stated. For centuries, a a however, paper-money hlas been a common- 1 r place with the Japanese. Until within e five years ago, every great daimio was Sallowed to issue paper-money. The tra 1 veler in the interior of Japan still meets I a with these cnrious relics of the feudal sye- I tem from which Japan has just emerged. a I lived for one year in the city of Fakawi, e in the province of Yechizen, where the y money used for daily purchases were the - local issues of the 'IHan," or perfecture of a Fukawi. These were strips of stiff white ,t or yellow paper, from four to eight inches I long, and two inches wide. The values of n these formidable looking cards were one I[ tenth, one-fifth, and one-balf cent, and one, *t two, three, four, five, ten, twenty, twenty five, and fifty cents, respectively. The " designs engraved upon them were charac d teristic. The fat and jolly god of riches, n seated on a throne of rice-bags, was the is most common figure. Rice is not only the w staff of life, but the sinews of war, in -y Japan. It is the standard of value; eal a. aries are paid in it, estate are appraised in o its terms, and it is to the "bulle and bears" ig what gold is to the bovine and ursine me gentlemen of Wall Street. :e Nothing else, then, but bags fall of rice 1- would suffice to build a throne for the at Japanese god of wealth, who does not look t. at all like Mammon, and is as fat as two or ad three of Mr. Barnna's fleshly immensities ag rolled into one. The treasure-ship in the ra distance, coming honreward, was another y. favorite vignette. "When my ship comes al in" is as a common a saying among the in Japanese as it is with us. The "pile" of see gold, oval coins, called ko-bans, which every Japanese hopes to " raise" before he n, dies, and of warehouses by wharves filled 3g with unloading ships, also helped to make ;s. the people believe that stamped paper was ik real money. The local issues of one of the he "Hans," or prefectures, adjoining that of ad Fakawi, were but an inch wide and sir an inches long. In another, they were three m inches wide and four long. re When the mikado was reinstated into ad his ancient power at Yeddo, the imperial a 1 government, feeling the need both of hard ld cash and an easy currency, listened will ar- ingly to the brilliant suggestion of a samu be rai of the Yechizen clan, which was, that ale the imperial government should imitate, be on a grand scale, what every diamio had ad been used to do, and should iasse national it paper-money. The resolution was speedi is ly taken. The order was given, and Mit is- sooka ("three hills") of Fukawi was com he missioned to execate the orders of the tis government. The contract to furnish the to paper was awarded to a noted paper-maker to of one of the villages near Fakuwi, who to promised to furnish within a specified time he enough paper to print fifty-one-million kis dollars' worth of kinsalsu ("money-cards") he as the imperial paper is called. Immedia deo tely tripling his force of laborers, and div ad iding them into three companies, the con lid tractor worked them night and day until sk the several acree of hard, white, and silky lustrous cardboard, cnt into square feet, ala were piled, in the Imperial Treasury (O n- Kura Sho), in Tokie (Yeddo). After being rn engraved, they were rapidly taken up, or circulated throughout the empire, and are it, still in daily use, rarely falling more than 4- seven per cent below par, the Mexican sir dollar being the standard of value in Ja c- paa, as in China. dy Tae kinsatsu are of various dimensions, r4d ranging from the size ot a United States in Treasury note, or greenback, througla the ck various sizes of uur postal curreney- With For os, however, every thing is upside down, he or the opposite of what it is in Japan; ed perhaps a-ice versa, as a foerigner believes. ad Hence, the legends on Jaspnese money are read from top to tottum, perpendicularly, a; and not from left to right. The naite of is- valne is the boo-equal to about twenty is five cents; The roi is abiot equal to our mat dollar, and the two boo piece, laslves cud a quartersofa boo, watth tire and ten rio he pieces, compolte the divsionus of their r's paper-money. Tllae new miiney, besides pial bteg or-onnted wviali thla sacred mn3thi ess cal birds, dragaas, the ci eat .1 tlae mikado, an- etc., are inscrited with legends in Chinese hlis characters, stating timear value, late of uk issaue, and the fact that they kre corrent ves for thirteen years; but they bear no pro to alse to pay on their face. - Jqaess.s were dellghted with their paper schemes. Within a few months, the n Da-Jo kan, or Supreme Council, had is- mI sued $48,000,000 worth of paper ; and sub- yo sequently the Mim-busho, or Department all of the Interior, was commeissioned to issue Ma $7,500,000 more. By several clever finan- we cial tricks and by the means ready at the shl command of a governmet which is a des- in potiam of the first water, the money cir- II culatad well, and everybody seemed e pleased. by There was but one trouble-the money m' was easily counterfeited. John Chinaman tic was especially active at the work. John's an favorite method was to split the pecuniary Ps card-board in two, and, by pasting on false co backs, to add the desigo by means of a La clever pen. John was often caught, and so was Gonji. (Gonji in our nickname for the typical Jap, as "Sandy," "Pat," "Hana," and "John," are of certatn other ' types of mankind.) Several busbels of heads parted company from counterfeiters' shoulders, because John and Gonji pre ferred to earn their living "by their pen." Japanese swords are sharp. Sentence and oil execution are often on the same day. . Gonji's head, after being chopped off, was do fixed on a post by the road. On the first s, day we visited Yeddo, two- bloody heads e welcomed us, add told as to beware of counterfeiting. But the more heads the more counterfeiting, until finally preven tion instead of cure was tried ; and a con tract was given to a German firm of bank note engravers at Frankfort. and to an American company in New York, to fur nish notes engrated in the beet foreign style. Now, the green, pink, and blue treasury-notes of Japan defy the counter feitLa. Ninety-nine million dollars' worth c, of the new paper has been printed; but we have yet to bear of a successful irmita tion of the new issunes. The executioner does not like the foreign-made money, and prefers home manufactures. The average size of the new currency is that of a carte de visite, and, in beauty and minute perfection of mnechancical execu tion, it is equal to any in the world. In a circle of flashing sun-rays are two celestial e birds, with their sacred months open, as if chuckling over what a nice thing it is to be the sacred birds of a paper-money trea sury. They have long, sweeping tails, and stand majestically on one foot. On their necks are two impossible curls that r would defy even Darwin to tell how and why they were evolved. Above these happy fowls is the emperor's ancestral crest-an open chryeanthemum-and be tween them the denomination in English and Chinese character, and the English words "Imperial Japanese Treasury," which in microscopic letters, are, repeated I Sseveral hundred times. Thy cherry-blos - som, the national floral emblem of Japan is also conspicuous. Beneath are the om nipresent dragons, which, with claws, tail, horns, and mustaches, are made to look as B respectable as possible. On the reverse f side are circles, small birds, peacocks, Sdragon-flies, create, stars, and much mic a roscopic printing in English. Each piece f is stamped in blue, red, and green ink, - with the elaborate seal of the Japanese i, Imperial Treasury. The whole amonot of - paper-money thus far issued by the Jap e anese Government is as follows: Kinsatsu, - bearing the seal of the Dai-jo-kan, or Sn , preme Council of Japan, 48,000,000 roi e (dollare) ; kinsatsu issued by the Mim-bu e sho, or Department of the Interior, 7,500 n 000 roi; paper money, manufactured by - by the diamios, but still in circulation, a 33,309,20 roi ; new paper-money, intended " to replace all the old paper, both local and e national, $99,000,000. In addition to the above, "stamped e deeds," which circulate as money, have ,e been issued by the Japanese Government k to the extent of several million dollars. or The displacement by the national cnr is rency of the old paper issues, which are e worthless beyond the limits of the province ir in which they are printed, will have a is healthy effect on the prosperity of the te country. The old metallic money, too, has Af been superseded by a new coinage of great h beauty and uniformity, which is denomin ie ated according to the decimal system. i With a national coinage and currency, :e financial enterprises are now being set on is foot, and already there are banks conduct ie ed on the American national bank princi of pie in many of the leading cities through ix out the empire. They are the growth of ie less than five years. W. C. Gnimres. to Good and wise parents, without relaxing al necessary discipline, endeavor to make -d home happy and to furnish sources of I- amnusement, occupation and interest in the - evenings to induce both sons and daughters it to remain at home. They always allow e, their childten to remain at perfectease with l them, and this is done by kindly encour al agement and praise when deserved, not i- sparing reproof when reqauired, but admin t- istering it kindly and firmly. Nagging, a- harping and "talking at" a culprit is wisely me avoided. A uniformly kind manner, a ready 'e sympathy, is sure to entail confidence and er respect between parents and children. A 30 home can only be a happy one and young ie people safe when they are able to confide in without reserve in their parents, to look ") upon them as their beat friends, and be a- guided by their advice. Yet how rarely we v- find parent and child on this frank, familiar n- footing-the mother the daughter's most till confidential friend, the father the compan Y- ion of his son. The lad and lass, cowed at it, home seek eagerly the relief of some friendly 0O roof, where they feel free from the unnatu 0g ral restraint of a too rigid home, and be P. hieve themselves appreciated as they do re serve for their own merits-where the girl in feels that she is a woman to be admired, en respected and loved if worthy; and the a- youth that " a man's a man for a' tht es caping taunting and rudeness at home. 5s, Itadeness at borne! That expression es trenches on a topic not always receiving he doe attention-the claims of grown sons tth and daughters to respect as men and n, women at home. No home can be happy I; or harmonious wherein the members do 15. not exhibit towards one another the asme re amenities of politeness they exercise- in y, society. Nay, no man or woman can ever of possess the perfect tone of good breeding y- who does not practice at home the manners Mr dasplayed abroad. Assumed politeness is s ld mre veneer, betrayed by umany cracks i0 and clumnsy joins to the i-VeA i' Ihs who ~ii kno"w the world.

Many a promising young man has gone the road to ruin, allored by evil but specious companions. Many a girl has made a mis-alliance or a worse mistake from the same cause.
