Of this original Sunday paper the historian says: "It might be read in a clubroom, where the poor could not see how their betters ordained one thing for the vulgar and anoth- | er for themselves or in an easy chair in the study, whither. my lord y for his devo- tions. It dealt in private scandal and ribaldry, only the more piquant for its pretty flimsy vel of double- intent. It was fortune to the pub- lisher and it became a necessity to the reader. Talk of English morality ~wthe worst licentiousness in the worst period of the French monarchy scarcely equalled the wickedness of this Babbath-keeping country of ours." H Laugh at the ridiculousness of such intolerance and a nation "so wicked and licentious that .it read papers on the Sabbath," but remem- ber that not a score of years ago American Sunday newspapers were blacklisted, the towns and cities pro- hibited their distribution and sale on the Sabbath and that church-go- ing people bought Sunday newspap- ers at the sacrifice of conscience and scruples. It is interesting to note that the Sunday paper had its incup- ton in the intolerant Nineteentn century and it is equally interesting to recall that the Twentieth century once found it incompatible with its schewe of Sabbath observance, ------ THE DAYS WE LIVE IN. A transient trip through the average American city, remarks the Catholic Register of Toronto, will confirm the truth of the statements made last week at Brown University, Providence, R.I., by Secretary or State Hughes, that America to-day is dominated by a fleeting vision, a thirst for sensation and a relentless need for motion. "We find our- selves," said Mr. Hughes, "in the age of the motor, the movie and the radio, which, with freedom of loco- motion, novel and easy intimacies and the ever present and constant- ly expanding enterprise of tne press give us a delusive facility in acquir. ing information. It is the day of the fleeting vision. Concentration, thor- oughaess, the quiet reflection that ripens the judgment are more dif. ficult than ever." Pleasure and the acquisitioon of money to supply pleasure is the mania of the mo- ment. The quiet things of the spirit are forgotten. Only God and religion can recall the people. to saving sanity. \ A ------------------ NINE RULES FOR HAPPINESS, Dif it ever strike you, when you're listening to some one Tail against the evil of divorce, that the happy marriage, as opposed to the une happy, has never really had its fair share of pubMeity? If one of your neighbors down the street: has a family ruckus, the whole | they really en | miracujous, town will know it to-morrow. But it all the other folk in the Just have a quiet, happy evening at home, no one is the wiser. It is not so important that a couple be fitted for each other as that they make themselves fit for each other once they're married. Ad- Justing oneself to an intimate com- Panion of the other 'sex--that's the hard thing. The British novelist, W. IL. George, is touring on this continent with his wife. He is an expert on love, courtship and marriage. While he talks to big audiences, his wife sews his buttons on and glories in his celebrity. That doesn't mean that she hasn't an occasional' thought about her husband's prin. cipal topic, herself. In fact, Mrs. George told some Chicago reporters her own ideas, and gave them nine fules on how to be happy, though married. They're pretty good. Here they are: Do not open each other's mail. You might not like its contents. A woman should occasionally change her view, her ways and her hats. If you must be frank, let it be in private. Once a day a husband should say to his wite: "1 love you." Once a day a wife should say to her husband: "How clever you are." Lies are no good, but you can ex- aggerate a lttie, as in courtship. If it seems hard to be married to your wife, remember it fs hard for her to be married to you. Find out on the honeymoon ir Commonwealth, block | swearing or crying is most effective.

But from the physical standpoint what? Well, your children will be strong cr weak as you were strong or weak. If you have a strong body they willslikely have the same. If you have any weaknesses as to lungs, heart. kidneys or blood, they may have the same tendencies also. And so it is your duty to watch these strong points and these weak points also. From their very earliest years you should see that the youngster gels outdoors a part of everyday. That he learns to play with other youngsters even at three or four years of age. If you sce that he develops the rlay instinct, the battle is practic- ally won. He'll want to be outdoors. and he'll went to play all games.
