Every mother is cautioned against
giving her child laudanum or pra
goric; it creates an unnatural craving
for stimulants which kills the mind
or the child. Acker's Baby Soother

less and contains no opium or mor

Ike Custom of Wearing Crape for
Long rerlosla FmIII as Into lsa'
Duch. s oi Ruiland in Loadon Queen.
We go through a great deal of
false sentiment and false politness
in the matter of onr funeral cere
monies and onr mourning attire.
In the' jouthiBl tiajs'tf rfrpiea
en'. xigem rians the mark ot
mourning a piece of black crane
around the tleev9 of a colored
coat was reserved, for tbenrmy
only. Army and navy officers
alone might make n is modest
manifestation stand in lieu of the
glossy sables aad deep hatbands of
civilians. There was a howl as
well as a sneer,when tbeae civilians
adopted, the military custom, and
on the sleeve ' of a colored coat
stitched a black band to denote
tbc death of a dear friend or a near
relation. Howls and sneers not
withstanding the custom 'gained
ground, and is now recognized,
adopted and approved of.'
"There are ninny who set their
faces against the excessive mourn
ing of bygone att:re. No longer
do all widows tblnk it necessary
to clothes themselves in crape, and
the life-lonii otiiigat'iou of the
widow's cap, lik the lite long ob
ligation ot the widow's black, is
at an end. Those who like to ctins(
to the ancicut methods have their
will and do their pleasuie, but
those who do not those who 'carry
death ib their hearts and do not
care to show it to the world -or
those who really ate not deeply af
flicted may dispense with mourn
ing altogether if they have the
mind, bimple black answers for
allpuipobe, and the term tor this
is greatly curtailed. We no tong
cr feel that we owe it to the mom
ory ef the deid to make ourselves
uncomfortable, and to spend mono?
on mere show, on mere sigos and
symbols, to gratify the wa'cbing
world. Deep- in our hearts we
bear the sacred itnae, we keep
alive the holy flame. We have

souled woman, the futhcr, the bus

Bur need we then clothe ourselves

and more suitaMe aye, au l some
times more sincere, too the uu
demonstrutive ar-cuplance of the in

The Pope is tor seeking to effect
reforms in tbe monastic orders
abroad.. Much to the disgust of
the good lathers, Leo XIII. insists
thattbey shall return to the strict
observance of the rales established
by hur founders. Those who
have taken vows of ascetism must
lead &u ascetic life, and those- lu
taken vows of povertv mast be
poor not only in name. With this
object he has prohibited the order
of Fraucit-cans in Bavaria from
brewiug the magnificent beer tor
which tbey have been famous for
centuries past, aud the quaint old
Franciscan beer cellars, so well
known to all visitors toMunicb,
have closed their doors.
It was for the same purpose that
he Pope brought as much pressure
to bear ou tbe Grand Prior of the
Order of tl.e Ctithusiaus, when
the latter fec nlly mc.VihI hu offer
from ir. En isti ud cte for the
purchu-e of the monopoly of innn-

As ti e statutes ot the order in
question pre-cii'tc ex 'rome poverty
aud prohibit all barter, sale or ac
quisition of property. Leo XIII.
whs anxious t at the English offer
suould be accepted, aud that tht
