Pius X (Joseph Melchior Sarto)
was born 011 Juao 2, J ;> •>•">, at Kie^e,
a small village in the province of
Trevlso, Italy. His parents wore
John 15. Sarto ami .Margaret, nee
Sanson. W'tien the father died
young, and Joseph as the oldest of
seven children would ha\o been ex
pected to come to the assistance
of the ~U*iekeu household, the
mother would not hear of it. Let
him gon on studying for the priest
hood, and God would help her to
Jo her duty by the linie ones. Well
might Lh.it son, whom idle lived to
see cardinal, dedicate on her death

taph: "To Margaret Sarto, an ex

hat time primary education was

tersuade the teachers to receive
everai pupils gratis, whose parents,

As a bishop, Cardinal Sarto ilis
inguished himself by habitual geu
■rositr to the poor, the formation
if the clergy iu seminaries and the
iromotion of soc ial works, e-pecial
y the rural parochial banks.
Meanwhile, J.,-o XIII, having died,

md after several ballots, Sarto was
'lected on Aug. 4th, ll'U."., by a

.vith grief and consternation, he ver

When Messina and the neighbor

LAGGARD GOLFERS.
There Is Such a Thinq as Being Too
Deliberate In a Game.
Wlille carelessiiess Is a bad feature
for any golfer to allow to creep Into !

Is, to my mind, worse than not enough. !
in other words, uelther procrastination
nor hurrying will bring satisfactory j
results, but as between the two undue I
deliberation is worse because it is in
the nature of an imposition upon other
players. (Jolf tins become so popular ;

THE FEMININE ENIGMA.
2ueer Incident of the Turkish Revolu- ]
tion cf 1908.
In "The Orient Express" Arthur
Moore, F. B. G. S., relates a true lncl- '
lent of the Young Turks' revolution of
1W8. In which a woman plays a thrill
ing dramatic part. Herself a revolu- >
tionary ami the sister of Major Enver
Bey, she was the wife of Nazira Bey, ,
the sultan's principal police spy at Sa
louiki, whose assassination the com- |
mittee of union anil progress hail de- |
tided upon. She did not hesitate to
help the murderer. She left the cur
lains undrawn where she and her hus
band were dlniug together and placed
a strong light behind him. Then she
sat waiting tensely. Soon the shct rang
out. Hut the conspirator had bungled.
Nnzlm was only wounded. Sis weeks j
later the miracle of the revolution was ;
accomplished, and the committee, i
clement In their triumph, condemned
Nnzlm itey not to death, but to exile, :
and would have exalted his wife into a
heroine. Rut she, to Enver Bey's as- |
toulshment, proposed to go and share :
her husband's lonely exile at Benghazi.
"But, my sister," said Enver, "It Is
unthinkable that you should suffer
such a terrible fate. Moreover, the man
Is an infamous spy, who deserves
death. Why should yon share his pub
lic disgrace?"
"He is my husband," she answered,
"and I love him."
"You love him I But were you not al
ready a consenting and even abetting
party to the death which was intended
for htm?"
'That is true. I was willing that he
should die for the sake of our cause*
but as he is to live I shall live with
him. Where be goes I shall go."
So together the husband and wife
went to Benghazi

"Is there any truth to the assertion ;
made by scientists," asked a young
man recently, "that when a man and j
a woman have lived together for some I
time their facial characteristics assume 1
a similarity?"
The man to whom the question was
put was supposed to be a scientist, but j
he chose to regard the question In a j
humorous light
"There most certainly Is," he replied- |
"I know a man who married a widow,
and she was constantly reminding him
of her first husband."—New York Trib

Glittering Advertising Maze.
TUe only road to commercial success

vertising.

advertisements ceines from a wander

evil, and hack over the hi U will notue
the answer in the echoing cry "Adver
tise!"
The life, the fame, the success, the
hope and future of commerce lie In
that one magic word.
Advertising Is unquestionably the ]
weapon wlili li will make the comtnnni- 1
tv worthless for the retail catalogue j
bouses, but it Is not absolutely neces- j
sary that printed matter be the whole '
thing.
Personal and Individual advertising :
Is most helpful. It is such advertising 1
that gives retail mail order houses
their trade. 5
And through advertising the local
merchants can deprive them of much
of the trade that comes from their
community.
Fight the Prairie Fire.
The western farmer tights the prairie
(ire with a little tire of his own, which,
kept always under control, lie so uses
that the bigger lire, lindiug no fuel
lliere on which to feed, sweeps by and ,
leaves him safe.
So. in your advertising, vou have
your saving lire with which to fight j
(lie consuming competition of retail ;
mall order houses.
The printed matter, of course, must
continue to lie the main reliance for
urging people to enter your store.
Show windows, however good, are I
sure to be seen only by a few of those :
who might need to trade with you,
while personal invitations cannot be
given quickly enough to a sulliciont '
number to answer everyday purposes, j
It is through printed matter that the
retail mail order house offerings are ■
constantly made, and. if for no other
reason than to prove the determination
at least to match their efforts for
trade in your community, use the lacal
press and printed matter enough to lei
no one whose trade should be yours 1
forget that you are in a position to fill
his wants.
Originality Best ivietnon.
The local merchant should dwell at
ieugtb on the fact that he delivers
after the goods have been seen and he
fore the money has been paid for them,
nnd when it comes to making good,
should anything go wrong, he Is right
at hand, not a thousand miles away.
A reputation for originality Is con
tinually being sought by most mer
chants, and one can get it more easily
by being natural in every move. Ad
vertising that sounds like you is not
only sure to bring the greatest results,
but it Is also the one kind of advertis
ing your competitor cannot successful
ly Imitate.
It te true that some self styled ad
vertising experts have studied the dic
tionary, the grammar and the type
specimen books until they are able to
talk a Jargon that makes advertising—
by which we mean printed matter
seem very much of a mystery to the
average man.
Operate Like Pickpockets.
"The mail order house system experts
In the advertising art are something
like the pickpocket who, In an attempt
to divert suspicion from nlmseif, joins
the throng and shouts "Stop thief!" as
loudly as any one. Look through the
mall order catalogues and you will find
that nearly all of them will tell you
that their houses are the cheapest
places to buy; that they have the best
facilities.
They will intimate flint the other fel
low is the one t» avrntl if you do not
want to get "trimmed' and that It is
the other fellow that handles the trash
When a dog bites you the tlrst time
blame the dog; If he bites you ngai:>
blame yourself. If the mail ordir
houses get the best of vo-j once blame
them; If they do it again blame your
self for being such an unthinkable
