THE LE1TEN REGULATIONS HULKS OF OHSEKVANCE OF CATHOLICS AS ISSUED IIY AHCIIIUSIIOP CHltlSTIE. Thefollowlng Is a copy o.fthe Len ten regulations, as read by Father Donnelly at St. Monica's church on Sunday for tho observance of Catho lics In this diocese: Lent begins March 4. All tho faithful not legitimately dispensed, are obliged In conscience to observe the laws of tho Church concerning tho Lenten feast. 1. The use of flesh meats is al lowed at every meal on Sundays, as well as the principal meal on Mon days, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sat urdays, Saturdays of the Ember Days and Holy Week excepted. 2. The use of fish, milk, butter and eggs is permitted on all days of Lent at tho evening collation, and tho principal meals of thoso days on which the uso of flesh meats is for bidden. 3. In the morning a small piece of bread is allowed with a cup of coffee, tea, chocolato or some similar drink. 4. When tho principal meal can not bo taken before noon, the order may be inverted and the collation taken in the morning and tho dinner in tho evening. 5. Lard or grease may bo used in preparing tho lawful victuals. C. Those of tho faith who aro ex empt from the obligation of fasting can, when tho days when tho uso of flesh meats is permitted to all of tho faithful, be allowed to use It several times a day, as on the Sundays of Lent, when tho obligation Is not binding. The uso of both flesh meat and flsh together at tho same meal Is strictly forbidden during tho whole of Lent. 7. By virtuo of the Indult, grant ed for ten years, by the Holy See, to the Bishops of tho United States, worklngmen and their families are allowed the uso of flesh meat on all tho fast and abstenanco days throughout the year, with the excep tion of all Fridays, Ash Wednesday, tho Wednesday and Saturday of Holy Week and tho Vigil of Christmas. Thoso who avail themselves of this dispensation aro not allowed to eat flsh and meat at the same meal, and they aro exhorted to perform some other acts of mortification and pen nance, in accord with the spirit of the Holy Season of Lent. A most useful and commendable custom is that of abstaining during Lent from stimulants, in honor of tho Sacred Thirst of our Dlvlno Lord. The following persons aro exempt from fasting. All thoso who have not "attained their twenty-first year or who havo passed their sixtieth year; thoso whoso weak health or condition otherwise may demand the full amount of nourishment, and all those whoso occupations aro of a la borious and exhausting nature. Thoso who aro excused from fast ing on account of age or hard labor, may uso flesh meat more than once on tho days on which It is allowed. It Is eminently in accordance with the spirit of tho church that all those who uso tho dispensations from tho fast and abstenanco, should supply, In part, tho spirit of pennance, by prayers and nlmsdeeds; by avoiding all public shows, parties and amuse ments, and by abstaining from all in toxicating beverages.

Nothing cheap is worthy of Ii tin. . As tho newest member of the family tho best is none loo good. Every mother takes pride and just ly so lu tho appearance of her child in public. .This depends more upon the cart than anything else. The cart that has graceful lines anil a benutl. fill finish is tho ono that attracts attention. I('n the ALLAVIN cart tlmt makes people look the second time and brings out tho exclamation, "Oil doesn't ho look handsome!" Tho best investment Is always tho ono that gives the greatest security. The ALLWIN is so strongly constructed in every part that it will bring up a whole family. Your money is well invested because jour interest is se cured. , . , . , First and foremost, however, is tho child's comfort and health. Tlio ALLWIN cart has sensitive springs located directly under tho childs' spine, which prevent all injury and make the cart ride as easily as a cradle. The back reclines and tho foot rest raises until there is a perfect ly Hat bed. It is a go-cart and a baby carrlago combined. Tho Allwln lias tho good qualities of a baby carriage without its chief fault inconvenience. If the mother wants to go out and take tho child with her, and part of the way is in a carriage or on a boat the ALLWIN folds up when necessary into a package small enough to go Into a suit case. It is light, nuts easily and Is never in tho way. Have you a. new member in your family? Y'ou want an ALLAVIN.
