rorE leo xiii.
reaceful and calm as was the death of
Tope Leo XIII, so was his life through
out, ami the end was a most fitting culmi
nation to a career of singular quietude,
yet, withal, of wonderful power. The
placid current of his life, unmarred by the
tumult of storm, passed serenely into the
mysteries of death, and the eoul of a man,
to which the rough things of life were for
eign, moved as serenely into the great un
known. To those watching at the bedside
of the illustrious prelate the transition
from life to death was almost imperceptl
hie, So it is that one can say, and say
most truthfully, that the end was a fitting
culmination to the whole life of the man
for whom the world, irrespective of creed,
now mourns. His life was of such breadth
and sweetness that all persons, be they
members of the Roman church or of other
faiths, cannot fail to be impressed by it,
Leo'g mission was not only for the eul
vanccment of the Catholic church, but for
the uplifting of mankind in general. Ills
was not a narrow view of life, and this is
attested fully in his many encyclical let
ters. Time and again it was said by him
that all he desired was the "glory of God
and the salvation of souls." His was a
character of rare purity and the devotion
to the cause which he espoused has prob
ably never been equalled in the whole his
tory of the Catholic- church. He was ac-
corded universal respect by all men, and
he carried with him that quiet dignity that
commanded reverence.
Not only was he a remarkable man in
respect to his spiritual and moral side, but
in his intellectual life he had few peers.
Endowed with exceptional qualities of
mind, those qualities received a thorough
training in his early life. For about 15
years, as a young man, he was a student
in various colleges and theological schools
in Italy, winning prizes for marked pro
ficiency in several courses' of study. After
finishing hla preparation he became
schooled In the practical things of life as
governor of Benevento. Here he was en
abled to gain much knowledge of the
ordinary anairs of life, which was of in
comparable value to him In his luter deal
ings with men. To be able to maintain a
friendship in spite of the hostilities of
would-be enemies was a peculiar gift of
Leo. In fact it was said of him tbut he
had no animosities. He was really hostile
to no one as he was constantly laboring for
friendship. Clear of perception and
gifted with unusual insight be was able to
avoid those conflicts which most men are
uiibble to foresee.
Then, too, Leo turned his unusual gifts
of mind to use in a literary way and many
were the Italian and Latin poems that
came from his pen. Naturally these were
mostly of a religious nature, but they - did
not lack for literary merit.for epigrammatic
diction or for force. When one considers
the remarkable work both In the spiritual
and temporal sense It is difticult to recou
cile that work with the fact that the late
pope was not of strong physique, but in
stead was of most delicate health. Frail
and slender, he was far from being of the
type of a man to whom one looks for great
things. But such was his indomitable
will power that he was able to carry to a
successful issue things which would have
overtaxed the physical -abilities of much
stronger aud more vigorous men. Thus
taken all in all his was a most remarkable
career. There have perhaps been greater
men to occupy the papal seat, probably the
career of Leo's Immediate successor, Plus
IX, being reckoned more Important, but
the world has few examples of such well
rounded life.

To squelch the bad mosquito in his Irri

But if you do not care to breathe the sul

ffou'll find it just ns certain If you slap

AIho they've found a little worm, a para

That loves to hit the skeeter In the center
of his vest
And make him feel a bitter, green cucum

And twist his spinal column till it doubles
like a hinge.
If there's no paregoric, then the skeeter
will be missed.
Cut he la dead and done for If you slap
him on the wrist.
Tls said that giving him a bath in crude
petroleum
Will iiiiike him fold his vibrant wings and
make Ills voiee be dumb,
Or if you sprny hl:n carefully with strong
formaldehyde
Into the dim hereafter he will most se
renely glide.
Some eucalyptus ointment, too, will cause
him to desist,
But you ere sure to kill him If you slnp
him on the w rist.
The latest theory Is that If you will find
his key
The note upon the scale that he regards
with lively e'ee,
Tha fcippy, loorny, zlzzy note he sings as
swift he files
And play it fir him. when you do the
bold mosquito dies.
But why proIon.K tho jigony? Why finish

Foundation skirts for net nnd other
lacy gowns are often as elaborate as
the gowns themselves.
"Pongee colored shoes and stockings
are offered. They are almost the exact
shade of undyed pongee. These stock

expensive. , 1
Corset coats are made in pongees
and Shangtungs without linings. The
number of gores varies from sixteen to
twenty. The same coats iu pique, linen
and duck are popular.
There will be no decline in the vogue
of the white wash waist for autumn
wear, the importers say. Heavy white
linens and cheviots are being brought
to this country in great quantities.
Tatent leather belts Ave inches wide
have three folds in the center, reducing
the width to three inches. They are

On any other they would be cumber

With silk slips of several colors it is

POULTRY POINTERS.
For indigestion give the fowls plenty
of sharp gravel.
In breeding for color always select
birds a shade darker than the color de
sired. If an egg is clear after being under
a hen five days it is infertile and will
not hatch.
The profits In poultry are 'the largest
where the hens eat what would other
wise be thrown away, as is usually the
case on the farm.
Fowls that must be fed in summer
should be fed regularly. If fed twice
a day feed lightly in the morning and
give a full feed at night.
After the hatching season is over,
usually it will be best to sell off the
cockerels and all hens that are more
than two rears old, unless especially
valuable as brooders.
Title Pnges.
It was not until 1170 that a title
page was introduced to books nnd in
England not till shortly before 1190,
when W. Le Macbline issued one to
bis little book on the pestilence. Cas
ton never used them, but Wynkyn De
Worrle employed them in nearly all his
books.
