Spiritism (By P. J. S.)
In last Saturday's -Mirror," in the foreword of the article dealing with Mr. J. L. Rinn's rebuttal of Conan Doyle's revelations from assertions anent another world and apparitions, the scribe emphasises the desirability of more evidence of life after death. He says. "One REAL bit of tangible evidence of the existence of life after death would be of overwhelming inter-
est to mankind. One clear UNDENI ABLE proof that we continue to exist in the world beyond the grave would instantly produce a profound. ::hange throughout the world. It would accomplish more in an instant than all

He is apparently the man of the hour. Scots sang "He's a jolly good fellow." "Europe is in rags," says the ex Prime Minister, and not even 'a magic carpet woven of words will carry the devastated areas to sunny, unburden. ed lands beyond. There is a worse hurricane coming from another quarter. He appealed to all "moot to endanger the glorious old ship by quarrells as to which officer shall be on the bridge." Viscount Birkenhead says that Bonar Law was fully adequate to cope with the burdens of a Prime Minister, but the men by whom he was surrounded It was useless to try to were not. deal with first-class problems by means of second-class brains. Boner Law's only justification, says Lloyd George. for shattering the Coalition was the removal of the Cabinet Secretariat from Whitehall Gardens to the Treasury Chambers, and the abolition of the Ministry of Pensions. It would have been far better, declares the ex -Prime Minister, if the followers of Mr. Bonar Law. had gone on with their minds active and their eyes open, instead of with folded arms and drowsy eyes. Mr. Winston Churchill, in a message to Dundee Liberals, marvels, when he thinks of the gravity of the hour and its measureless uncertainties, at the temerity and presumption which have caused to be squandered so many friendly forces, and which have stripped the State of so much serviceable experience. "I came," says Mr. Churchill, "into the Middle Eastern business effectively at the beginning of the year 1921, and I succeeded in reducing the expenditure in connection with it from about

than £6.000,000 next year." Mr. Austin Chamberlain,' speaking to his constituents, claimed his duty to his country had been his chief end. As he had shared Mr. Lloyd George's responsibilities. he could not as a man of honour tell the ex -Prime Minister that his room was preferable to his company. He had co-operated with Mr. Bonor Law in the past, and he could
do so again. The chairman of the Unionist Party organisation (Sir George Younger. Bart.) denies that there is any pact between the National Liberals and the Unionists regarding the contests at the coming elections. Lloyd George candidates number only 155, four of them being women. The Coalition, says Mr. H. H. Asquith, had fallen into disrepute both at home and abroad. It was not either in Belgravia or in the Carlton Club, but in Downing Street that it met its fate. The Liberal policy. says Asquith, is plain enough. The Labour manifesto was clean cut and intelligible, but when they came to the disjointed fragments of the late Coalition things were quite different. They knew little about Mn George's policy beyond that he was Mr. now for the sternest economy. Dollar Law's policy, where it was not negative was gelatinous. Dr. Bayles (-Imperial Conservative), who is opposing Lady Astor (Coalition Unionist) for the Sutton Division of Plymouth, has issued a writ for libel against Viscount Astor. M. Franklin -Bouillon has declined to represent France at the Near East Conference. The Greek General Papoulas (former ly Commander -in-Chief of the Greek forces in Asia Minor), has made grave revelations regarding the Greek defeat, and hinted at treason. He attributed much of the responsibility for the defeat to ex-King Constantine. It is asserted that martial law in Italy was revoked on account of the King's refusal to sign the proclamation. Lord Hardinge, the British Ambassador to France, says a Paris cable message, is reported to be retiring into private life at the end of the year.

The Queen of the Fairies also comes with her attendants to direct the revels. After a chorus of greeting to the Queen the Fairies of each Season are called in turn to sing their songs; after which, all join in the song "Good Night." and return to Fairyland. Miss C.

In a letter to Mr. Kissane, secretary
of the Queensland Irish Association, Mr. J. A. Fihelly writes of Irish af-
fairs: "They are very unsettled at present, and your cables are now fain,reliable. subject, of course, to the fact that all news coming from Ireland must be passed by the Free State censor. The passing of Griffith and Collins is a severe blow to the Free Staters. for they have very few men of outstanding ability or ripe experience amongst their leaders. The De Valera -Childers section is intractable, and from the information that reaches me the feud between the two sections is quite as bitter as that which originally existed between the Black And Tans and the Republicans. It is generally considered that the fighting will continue until December, when some agreement will be arrived at. However, the Dail meets in a few days' time, and maybe things will be made somewhat clearer. For myself, I am full of optimism and perhaps the brightest page in the whole sorry business is that although the Government is not functioning, and there are no police forces or tax -collectors, or other necessary evils in Ireland, the whole country is in a civil sense crimeless."

A most enthusiastic reception was tendered to his Grace Archbishop Kelly when he rose to speak at the Hibernian Society's Conference in the Southern Hall at the opening of the recent Con"You have done exceedingly ference. well." said the Archbishop. "during the past year by keeping your financial stability and dispensing favours to your members and increasing the roll of membership. Further, your society has distinguished itself publicly by the help that you have given to our charitable undertakings. I know from irlependent sources that wherever we have a branch of your society then we have people who respond to the appeal for charitable work. The other societies are doing admirable work in their way, but you in your way are certainly most effective." .
Concerning political matters, said Archbishop Kelly at the Hibernian Conference, the society was nut political, as members of Any party could become members: but there were principles belonging to all parties. and to -day Catholics were being overridden by the professional politician who managed to secure the reins of Government. They were certainly bringing Catholics from bad to worse.

It had been worked out by short-sighted politicians that they would put taxes on the school grounds of parochial places like St. Benedict's. The parochial schools were like birds of the air being fed by Divine Providence. They were saving the State something like 2 million pounds, while the teachers did not receive a salary, and the children only paid their fees when the parents could afford them. He remembered a case before a judge some time ago. concerning the basic wage. when a woman who was called as a witness put in a list of household and other expenses. The judge said, "You have here sixpence for school money. Don't you know you can send your child to the public school free?" The woman replied, "I prefer to send her to the Catholic school."

If he asked the priest in charge of St. Benedict's for, say, £700 or £800 for the municipality, he could not give it, "They might put us in gaol," added the Archbishop. "For myself I will give my cross and chain, and then there is the furniture in the house.'

The imposing new additions to St. Vincent's Hospital. Darlinghurst. were officially opened by his Excellency the Governor (Sir Walter Davidson, K.C.M.G.), on Sunday, the 15th. ult. in the presence of a large and representative gathering. Over £3,000 was subscribed. His Excellency was given a very cordial reception. and said: "In my official capacity as a King's man. and in my private capacity as one of yourselyes, I most happily declare the new Proceeding, he said building open." that he considered the new facade a great ornament, architecturally, to the city. "Little did those who inaugurated the hospital." he declared. "think that they had succeeded in securing His Excellency, in such a fine site."
referring to Archbishop Polding, said it was that great prelate who was responsible for the establishment of the hospital, and he was always in the forefront when it was in need. Archbishop Polding was one who made the world go faster in Australia, and he was one of those men who could only be described as a saint on earth. "I have loved my visits here. to the most beautiful quadrangle in Australia. the home of the nurses, and justly earned by them. It is the Sisters and the nurses who make the hospital. They deserve their share of comfort, for theirs is a self-denying life; they do their work while we go idle. It will be called up against us soon. (Laughter.) He sympathised in all movements like the one they were participating in. He desired to say before all the world that Australia is growing apace, and especially in those qualities I love to see in a young nation. While his Grace and others are doing that which is necessary to guide the morals and religion of the country, I desire to see." his Excellency declared. "the constitution firmlyobased on the goodwill of all parties and all peoples working as coin" rades for the common good, and proving themselves a better people even than those from the land from whence their forefathers had come." (Applause.) . Mr. Neal Collins, solicitor, of Sydney, who died at Darlinghurst on August 7 last- left an estate which has been valued for probate purposes at £56,820.

Mr. Piddingtun, who is undoubtedly the best authority on the sill iject in Au, tralia, has since written a book in support of the principle. We first cams across it as a French doctrinaire scheme ten or twelve years ago, but we foresaw great difficulties in working it. Wages must be based on the family: but that does not mean that a single man should get a family wage. The only solution is a "pool," which might be worked by a bureau worked on similar lines to savings banks. The basic wage should then be fixed for the average family; but every person. who was single or had less than the average family, would be subject to a graduated scale of reductions which would be paid into the "pool." and allotted on the same scale to those who had over the average family to support. The object of this "pool" is to prevent men with large families from obtaining employment, for if wages differed, employers would only engage Then the women's wage single men. question would also be settled, for the woman would be paid at the same rate as a single man .doing similar We do not say "equal" work, work. because we see there an opening for injustice.

bound to the basic wage of £1 19s 6d. The country is not expected to find employment for a disproportionate number of women in office work, while houseworkers are at a premium. These misplaced women not only spoil the labour market for themselves. but pre vent men who should be the breadwinners of families, from obtaining lucrative employment. Nature and Citizenship. God created mankind, male and female, and industry cannot unsex us. the normal destiny of men and women is to marry and to bring up families. A section of modern womankind, pagan in thought and education, argue that women should not be constrained to marry. That is true enough; but they twist it out of its true meaning. It is contrary to the welfare of the nation and the race to offer them In. ducements to remain unrnaried. At the Present time any normal girl can ob Lon from 30s. to 40s. a week. with board and lodging, if she will take up housework.

On Tuesday afternoon, the 29th. ult., Mrs. Hannagan, of Burgoyne -street. Northam, and relict of Mr. John Ilan-
nagan, died at her home after an illness that had extended over a period of about four weeks.

So far as it has gone the present campaign in England shows that the two great vocal factors in the political disturbance are out for a specific purpose, and that is to defeat the purposes on British organised Labour. and to control the aspirations of the Democracy. To this end some sort of an understanding seems to have been arranged between the George-Chamberlianites and the Tories under Mr. Bonar Law, though the Tories deny that there is a pact. Both parties talk os a nauona, danger-Mr. Lloyd George warningly speaks of a hurricane coming trent somewhere with tragic nappenings. ana presumably a frightening upheaval.

'
When bigots fall out and make "re velations" that stir up dirty waters. there are smothered imprecations in the mouths of some people who, posing as open-minded gentlemen, play the part of whispering knaves.
That Britain was very near to making a hot time for herself and the Dominions in Anatolia we gather from a Gibralter message, which stated on Tuesday, September 19: "The 1st. North Staffords embarked this afternoon on board the transport, Hecuba. about 700 troops for Constantinople. A number of married families who antes ed on board the Hecuba from England are being accommodated here. There is." said the Aldershot correspondent of "The Times," "considerable military activity at Aldershot. Two battalions of the 2nd. Grenadier Guards. under Colonel the Hon. E. M. Colston, and the 3rd. batalion Coldstream Guards. under Lieut.-Colonel W. St. A. Warde Al dam, have received definite orders to leave Aldershot at once for Shanak. Although the Irish Guards are now at Constantinople, they will not be joined by the Aldershot battalions, which will be brigaded in all probability with the 2nd. battalion Riffle Brigade and 2nd. battalion Royal Fusiliers. The two Uuaids' battalion at the moment are particularly strong. and each will entrain some 800 young fully trained soldiers." When there was a chance of England being involved in the war witn Keinal, London prices began to soar and markets tightened. The "pay. triot" food robbers got down to business and laid their plans to begin anew their plundering of the masses. What an awful disappointment it must have been to those bleaters for Empire that the voice of the people intervened and something occurred to crool their pitch. Christmas puddings. it was whispered, would cost more "because dried fruits are normally shipped in large quantities from Asia Minor via Smyrna." Speculators commenced buying up "bargains in materials which may be wanted in the event of hostilities." Kemal henceforth will boss the dried fruit depots-the Greeks will go somewhere else-and who knows but dried fruits and Christmas puddings may not yet make fortunes for British speculators. It worries us to think that even British diplomacy may yet be at war with Kemal over dried figs and raisins, and the British elector called upon to back up another great bluff.
Fifty reparation Commissioners, a Paris message states, have departed for Berlin. 'Ostensibly their mission is to decide the alternative schemes put forward by Sir John Bradbury and M. Barthou, after having nosed into the financial stability of the Reichsbank. Boiled down into common, every day man-in -the -street talk, their game is to try the hopeless experiment of extracting blood from a stone. There need be no surprise about the confirmed fall of the German mark. Who shall decide? Viscount Birkenhead. ex -Lord Chancellor, scolds the Anglican Bishop of Oxford for daring to bar the Duke of Marlborough, the Lord Lieutenant of Oxfordshire. from attending a Diocesan Conference, because he did not possess a communicant's status. The Duke was divorced from his first wife, and remarried while his first wife was alive. Birkenhead says the action of the Anglican Bishop is as unchristian as it is arrogant, and that the legality of that action is What the Bishop very doubtful. of Oxford will do under the circumstances is an interesting conjecture. What will the Archbishop of Canterbury decide to do if "Oxford" stands Will he support the Bishop of firm?

"Thou art Peter!" How the resonant words of Christ ring down No scolding Birkenhead the ages! affects Peter's spiritual authority. Gilbert Keith Chesterton has his own very effective way of winnowing the chaff of sophistry from the golden grain of Truth. Here is how be replies to
the abscurantists who parade their "failure of Christianity" arginnent: "My mother tells me not to climb a certain apple tree to steal apples, anal do it in spite of her. A bough breaks. a bull -dog pins me by the throat, a policeman takes me to prison, whence 1 eventually return to shake my head reproachfully at my mother, and say in a sad and meditative manner: 'I had hoped better things of you. Alas! there is something pathetic about this failure of motherhood to influence the modern mind: I fear we must all admit that maternity as an institution is barren and must be abandoned altogether." One of the best known Churchmen, and perhaps the most stirring pulpit preacher of his time. the Rev. Bernard Vaughan. S.J., has paid his debt to nature and gone, we hope, to enjoy the beatific vision after a long and fruitful missionary work in the service of the Divine Master. He came of an old aristocratic Catholic English family, and was a great Englishman. His powerful eloquence in the Jesuit Church. Farm -street.

Up to a year ago he was in active work, then he began to show the wear and tear of his long active life in the Church, and he went on a health trip to South Africa, in the hope of restoring his shattered health.

All Souls' Day in Rome What tender Day of the Dead! memories are evoked by these words: what half -sweet, half -sorrowful recollections rise before us of those whose little span of life is over. and who have loved, and suffered, and gone-whither? Perhaps to taste perfect happiness for the first and only time in their existence or, and this is the more probable alternative, to expiate in the cleansing fires of Purgatory their venial sins of thought- and word, and omission, their clinging attachment to the things of
earth.
The roses bloom quickly over a newly -filled grave, the grass springs up, and covers the little mound, where rests the dust we loved to gaze upon so fondly, and as Time, with its healing finger. obliterates the first sharp pangs of our grief, we are sometimes too apt to forget that all may not be well with the soul that was so dear to us.

the cry that is borne to our sew upon the bleak November cried, a lengthened wail of anguish from the spirits of those we have forgotten amid the countless cares and duties and in terests of our daily life. Father, mother. husband wife, friends, benefactorsthose who have perhaps helped us to climb the ladder of success, or those whose love has shed the magic of its sunshine over so many years of our existence-all these are sighing to us for their release. and we-have forgotten them! All Souls' Day in the Eternal City is in celebrated as a solemn festival of our dear departed, and the Campo Santo, on the 2nd. of November, presents a scene which cannot fail to impres even those of an alien creed to whom the pains of Purgatory are but a myth and a fable. In the stately churches and proud basilicas High Mass has been sung upon the feast of All Saints. We have rejoiced with those whose crow,. is won and who are basking in the radiance of the Beatific Vision, and no wit is time to chant the Vespers for the Dead. to turn our thoughts towards the poor suffering prisoners Ianguishing outside the gate of Heaven, Both on the eve of All Souls and the afternoon of the day itself, the road leading to the Church of San Lorenzo, outside the walls is black with a vast crowd composed of various nationalities and all classes of society, on their way to the cemetery. It is a fair spot for a last resting place. that spacious "God's Acre," far from the roar and tumult of the great city and watched over by the distant mountains, raising their snow -tipped crests to the tender blue of the Italian It is rich, too, in statuary ana scumture, and ornamentation of nineteenth century art-that art which has degenerated since the day when "there were giants in the land." to the med. ern realism of weeping mourners, in gracefully draped satin gowns, and chubby-cheeked orphans, in lace frocks and accurately buttoned boots.

The air is and roses of perfume fragrant with the sweetly -scented blossoms, which are scattered lavishly over cross and head. stone, and the many -tinted chrysanthemums run riot in a gorgeous feast of colour forming a contrast to the corn lirregarments of the living as they wander to and fro in the crowded cemetery, or kneel in silent prayer by the resting places of their dear dead. The general effect of the scene, hawever, is not altogether a sorrowful one. Here and there one comes across a touch of pathos, a glimpse of a grief that is made of sterner stuff than the fleeting sentiment that is echoed by a wreath of violets. and a small tombstone gilded by the sunshine: but in the case of the majority, this anniversary appears to partake of the character of a mild "festa," and, after all, is not this the true Catholic spirit? Inside the Church of San Lorenzo the second Vespers are being chanted. and in the mortuary chapel the Confraternity of the Souls in Purgatory are reciting the Office for the Dead. having first walked in processionone from end to the other of the vast cemetery, while the Capuuchins, who serve the Basilica, are sprinkling the graves This ceremony is with holy water. observed during the eight days of the left burning on are octave. the lights the tombs, and each afternoon before sunset the Office for the Departed Souls, in addition to other prayers, are said by the Confraternity and the Capuchins.

Eugene Debs Lauds Priest. In the "Century," Eugene V. Ochs pays a tribute to the memory of Father Byrne, formerly chap:ain of Atlanta prison: "The late Father Michael J.

Tribute to Dead Priest. The "Post," of Louisville' Ky., dealing with the career of the late Dean McNulty. pastor of St. John's Church, Paterson, N.J., for over half a century, says: "The story of this man's life cannot be given. even in summary here, but there appears to be no contradiction of the fact that he has influenced Paterson during the last half century and more as has no other citizen.

One of the most dramatic incidents of the deau priest's career took place more than 25 years ago when, almost single-handed he extricated two officers of the law guarding a murderer from an excited mob. Ten thousand people were assembled on that occasion bent upon a lynching, but the determined vicar of St. John's led the prisoner through them all, and so great was his personal influence that Paterson was spared the shame of a riot. Countless other incidents are given in connection with this man's life, but we will stop with these. Is the influence of the Church That query greets us on declining? every side. In some places undoubtedly yes: in others, no. After all. the standing and influence of the Church must, in part at least, depend upon the ministers of the Church, and the churches that can command the services of such men as the dead vicar of St. John's are not likely to see their influence wane."

German Socialists. Much has been written concerning the tendency of socialism in Germany to break down the bulwarks of Christianity, says the "Catholic Bulletin." It to is therefore all the more refreshing read the statements of recognised powthe ers in that country with regard to feeling of the people concerning religion. Paul Kampffmeyer, one of the cleverest of the German Social -Democrats issues a caution to the leaders, warning them that the people have never really broken with the Church. "During the revolution and the fights few which followed," he says, "not a Communists, as death came, are said to have asked for Extreme Unction.

The motion was necessary. it was explaited, because, although the Constitution had not yet been enacted, it was necessary that the preparation be begun immediately, as with the addition of over 400,000 new electors the Register would not be complete till April next. It was indicated that the Dail will not be dissolved immediately after the. Constitution is enacted but, as pro-

It says:"It is worth noting that shoilikhted as capitalists often are, they are not the only people who sometimes make a sad mess of the common wee We were all a little taken fare. aback the other day by the fashion in which Italy accepted the intervenlion of the Fascisti. It becomes more intelligible when we peruse the record of the Socialist municipality of Milan, just removed from office by Royal Decree. These enthusiasts endowed the city with fresh amusements of many kinds, and paid their employees handsomely. But they neglected the water supply and tram way service, and when they retired from the scene they left behind them swollen rates, a deficit of f1000,000 great arrears of salaries and wages, and a situation in which the chief commercial city of Italy could not raise a penny on loan either at home or

When I was home for my mid -winter holidays the people were collecting for a bazaar in aid of the new Catholic Church that is going to be built. Well, Aunt Bessy, this is all the news this time. So with love to you and the "wee ones" I will bring my letter to a close. --Your loving niece. DOREEN BAR RErr. You look very charming. Doreen, just as happy -looking and pleasant as Jean. though I am sure Jean thinks she looks the best, because her pose is so much like a Doctor of Divinity's loose when he wants to appear superior. Jean would stop a quarrel anywhere with her honest sniffing face, and I'm glad she hasn't overshadowed Doreen, though she is somewhat in the background. Both of you look very healthy young Australians. If I can get the photo's together for reproduction in the one picture I will print them in the Corner at Christmas. I was very pleased when I read that you were all so interested in the big ship and that the visit made you all long for your supper. I hope typing and bookkeeping exams. will end in great encouragement to you. -I hope the concert and bazaar will be a success, and that I shall have another big mail from St. Joseph's before Santa Claus comes down the chimbly.-Your loving.

LLOYD GEORGE AND THE INTERNATIONAL MONEY The failure of the financiers at the de'wilt).* very much resembles heat of the German armies on the Marne. It is not the end of the struggle, but it is the end of incertitude. Short of a miracle, they are now bound to he defeated, and one can talk about them in terms of defeat just as one could talk of the great seige of Central Europe in terms of defeat after orb had thrown the Prussian Guard into chaos at La Fere Champenoise in September. 1914.

We must remember that there has arisen a great vested interest in the present gang of politicians and that too great a change is the personnel at Westminster would prevent the maturing of contracts, the completion of sales of peerages, the promises of this job and that all round the place. The financiers have nothing to give George by way of -a bribe which can make it worth his while to drop out, and he still has the power tea give a good many things as bribes to those who support him.

The mixing up of Lloyd Georges family, for instance, with the oil deals, was discussed in the most. serious organs of the Paris Press as a piece of ordinary news, and the attempt to betray the Allies and to save Germany in the middle of the war is equally common knowledge abroad. When the boycott is lifted all that sort of thing will get into the English papers and. as I say, we shall It would be unpatriotic have fun. and base to enjoy the joke if it were proceeding at the expense of this country; but it is not; anything which tends to degrade further and expose further the dirt of professional politics in the House of Commons is to the One cannot good of the country. wish for ally limit to this process.

Luis de Vargas CATHOLIC PAINTER. Few great artists were so deeply inspired in their work by the pure love of God as Luis de Vargas who was noted as much for the holiness of his life as for the excellence of his paintings. It is declared.to have been his habit before painting one of his great altarpieces. invariably to go to confession and to receive Hole Comment n. His life was simple, like ,hat of a because
and marked ,by extreme generosity to the poor. In his room he kept a coffin to remind him cell:tautly f the approach of death. De Vargas lived in the golden age of He was born at Seville, in Spain. 1502. during the reign of Isabella the Catholic, and was heir to the great traditions of the faith that marked that period. His first paintings were done on rough canvas curtains used to cover up pictures on the altar during Holy Week and so successful was he in this work that the generosity of a friend enabled him to study in Italy, where he came into contact with Giorgio Vasari. the great painter and architect of Florence, and studied closely the works of Perino del Vaga, one of Raphael's favourite pupils. De Vargas spent twenty-eight years in Italy ,and returned to Spain an accomplished artist. He was one of the few Spanish painters really eminent in One of the his draughtsmanship. greatest of his pictures. the "Temporal an allegorical of Lord," Our Generation composition showing the Blessed Virgin holding the Infant Christ, and Adam and Eve adoring Him is remarkable for its wonderful foreshortening of the leg of Adam and for that reason is sometimes 'mown as "La Gamba." Of De Vargas' fresco work very little remains, but a contemporary has written of one of his frescoes, "Christ Bearing the Cross," that it was so notable in Seville that condemned criminals were brought to "La Calle de la Ainar gura" (the Street of Bitterness) en order that they might make their devotions before it and receive the last offices of the Church before being taken to the scene of their execution. De Vargas was contemporaneous with Calderon de la Berea. and his work was characterised by that love of the Catholic religion and that glorification of its practices that inspired the "autos sacramentales" and which has made the golden age of Spain one of the most fascinating fn all history. He died in 1568.

A Christian life which has not made a perfect revolution in a man's worldly life becomes no Christian life at all, but only an ineommodious unreality, which gets into our way in this life without helping us into the life to come.Faber. People are usually in the place that God destined for them, and if God destines a place for anyone it is the best Why, then, place for that person. should we lose charity through jeal ousy? "Kindness costs nothing." That is a very old saving, but always true. The thin"s that cost nothing usually give us little satisfaction, but it is a different thing with kindness. It costs nothing, but it pays most generously. Pleasant it is to entertain the picture of ourselves in some future scene, planning wisely, feeling nobly, and executing with the holy triumph of the will; but it is a different tasking, not in the green avenues of the future, but in the hot dust of the present moment. to do the duty that waits and wants us. We must burst the narrow bounds of our selfiehness and take a living interest in the wide work of the Church. Yet there are many who seem so cold and indifferent to it all that they do not even read the simple record of it, se,-h as may be found in any good Cathulic paper.

In the sphere of morals the offence is notorious; the culprit is isolated or hanged or burned by his contemporaries; and his work is given over to professors or priests as the case may be. and their job is to make him a deity or a classic to whom no ordinary man need pay attention any more. In humbler ephei es the offence. though less conspicuous, is none the less distressing; and here we have no specially trained class to protect our anguished sense of inferiority. Quite lately I have suffered torments and can find no means to allay them. The culprit, moreover, is partly in my employment, so I am in the position of the lamb who licks the hand that's raised to shed his blood; for any man who is a man feels a wound to his personal dignity more keenly than to his body, and no moral aspirin has yet been discovered to still these subtler pains.

COURTESY. (By Hilaire Belloc.) Of courtesy it is much less Than courage of Heart or Holiness. Yet in my walks it seems to me. That the Grace of God is in Courtesy.
On Monks I did in Storrington fell; They took me straight into their Hall; I saw Three Pictures pn a wall, And Courtesy was in them all.
The first the Annunciation; The second the Visitation: The third the Consolation, Of God that was Our Lady's Son. The first was of Saint Gabriel; On Wings a -flame from Heaven he fell; And as he went upon his knee He shone with Heavenly Courtesy.
Our Lady out of Nazareth rode-It was her month of heavy load; Yet was her face both great and kind, For Courtesy was in Her Mind. The third it was Our Little Lord, Whom all the Kings in arms adored; He was so small you could not see His large intent of Courtesy. Our Lord. that was Our Lady's Son, God bless you, People, one by one; My Rhyme is written, my work is done.

The real benefactors of the race are iiet those who compose great masterpieses or who scale lofty heights, whether in the interest of science or the advancement of human thought, but those who perhaps unknown to the world are quietly doing a greater work, its among the teas J/ -.ALA poor and friendless everywhere.

The ordinary duties of the home or school or workshop, if well performed, and with the higher purpose in view, enrich and sanctify life. In every age men and women have been animated with the desire to labour for the good of mankind as wen as for the improvemnt of conditions affecting the best interests of the home, And in our society and the State. own day a real need rs reit for a readjustment of values in the lives of individuals and of nations. A return to higher moral principles that will measure up to the ideal required in the things that truly count is imperative. To be charitable, sympathetic. helpful, forgiving toward our neighbour; to be tender and generous smith wife, or husband, or sister. or brother; to be just as truthful and ungrasping in our business relations; to be conscientious in the discharge of our whole responsibility as citizens, these are among the high ideals which the cultivating of a finer sense ef duty will help us to make our own.

Should a Catholic marry a nonCatholic woman who says that she would turn Catholic for his sake, though personally she does not care for Would it not the Catholic religion? he wrong to receive such a person into This and such quee. the Church? tions are sometimes propounded. Some people evidently think of "turning Catholic" as if there were no more to it than to changing an overcoat. When a person is to be received into the Church he is solemnly asked whether he believes all doctrines of the Catholic Faith. Must Understand. He cannot honestiy and sincerely say "Yes" if he takes the step merely for somebody else's sake. To please someone a woman may put on a different hat, but she cannot assume the Catholic religion merely to please Unless heart and soul come others. into the Church nobody can become a Catholic .no matter what ceremonies a priest goes through with him. Such a young lady had better be prevailed upon to take a short course of instructions in the Catholic religion. She would thus learn what the Catholic religion is and what it Is good for. Such a person most probably knows very little about it, and we can hardly blame her for her attitude. A Good Helpmate. Nobody will buy an overcoat unless he knows what it is and what it is good for. In several American dioceses there is a law that non-Catholics intending to marry Catholics must allow themselves to be instructed in the religion of their future husband or This practice settles many difwife. ficulties.

tired mother had worked most of the afternoon preparing a fine dinner for her children, and none of them sera Finally the mother a word about it. said with a certain wistful note in her voice: "Isn't this an extra nice dinner?" "I should say so!" A girl of seventeen made reply: "Of These biscuits course it is. mother. are so nice and light." And a girl of nineteen said: "Mother's This is a biscuits are always nice. very nice dinner)" "Then why didn't any of you say so without waiting for me to ask you to do it?" Be GratefuL It was a question that many a tired mother asks. It is a question that mothers, hungry for a little appreciation, ask. The father sometimes asks it when he has planned something that will give his family special pleasure. The child asks it in what is sometimes a pathetically wondering way when it has done something in the hope of The teacher asks it pleasing others. when she does her very best, and neither her pupils nor their parents say The old ask it and wonder a word. that the words of gra, ittele they have a right to hear from their children are never spoken.

STORY.
The Casket of Roses (By E.S. in the "Irish Rosary.") (Concluded.) "A quick. strong step broke suddenly on the quietness and in a moment the door was flung open and a young man of little more than twenty, in uniform and with an extremely disturbed expression on his handsome face, came abruptly in. He stood irresolutely for a little, then his brow lightened and an expression of relief succeeded the anxious and dejected expression he had worn on entering. I understood, without words being spoken, that this was a young nobleman who, having to jobs a regiment which was ordered to move almost at once from this district where the Comte's home was, felt in despair as he had not succeeded in bringing his suit of a young lady in the neighbourhood to a successful termination. This was largely through his own diffidence, for one moment he would be on the point of declaring his devotion to would hesitate and fail at the her, thought that perhaps she would be offended by his presumption, that she did not love him; his letters were invariably torn up instead of being slipped into her hand when opportunity arose, from a shy humility which fearthe sentiest them too unworthy of to ments lie was fain to expsese fact, torn between affection and timidwhat of ignorance in ity he was still his lady's feelings towards him might be.

She was to give him his answer that evening at a ball by wearing one of his roses if he might be permitted to hope that she could favour his suit. And I saw that blushing young soldier, bent over his little parchment, writing his simple, eager question and his request, sanding the wet ink, rolling up the precious missive into the neatest dd

I saw the vicively to be. tims of the Terror-well I know that sight, I have seen it more than once, in different events, but the sight remains in essentials the same.

No, I had it, it was not d'Aubignan, it was tne young man I had seen so many. many years ago, writing his eager letter to Mademoiselle Lucie (poor Mademoiselle Lucie!), and picking his pink roses in my garden. Ile had been a young man then, those nearly forty years ago, ne was now a silver -haired, keen -eyed soldier, a man on whose face I thought I could still see the trace of that evening's grief, forty years old, in the ball room where he had waited to see his flowers' message. Yes. Rosalie. it was the Count de Chappuis. "I watched him with vivid interest. He bore himself well and bravely, and he was especially tender and assiduous in his care of the wounded. Then I saw a door open, and a newcomer, a of rough under the escort of number men armed with pikes --f cannot call them soldiers-was pushed into the whitewashed, stuffy room with the jeer that it was the cell of the condemned which she was entering and so a happy omen for a cursed aristocrat. She held her head very high, and her blue eye. blazed in her white face, but as the heavy door 'oanged behind her and the bolts were shot noisily home, she tottered and swayed and would have fall. en save that Count de Chappuis and was nearest one of the ladies who sprang to her assistance. "It was the beginning of an illness, short enough for it only lasted about a fortnight, but long enough to enlighten the silver-haired Count upon the great sorrow of his life, the sorrow which had caused him to remain unmarried. For the blue-eyed elderly lady who had managed to show a brave, unflinching front to the canaille, but who had fainted on coming into the presence of her friends and sympathisers, was none ether than the Mademoiselle Lucie of former days, now the widowed Countess of Martignant, and in her delirium she talked incessantly of her young days and of the Count de Chappuis and the bunch of pink roses which he had given her ere disappearing suddenly and for ever, the bunch which she had never unbound but evhich she had put away. away in a secret place behind a panel. 'and where I buried my heart and my youth,' she reiterated. "She was in a room reserved for the use of the women, but the high voice of deliriumnjcarried, and the Count Tears could not elp hearing all. streamed down his face as he listened, but they were tears of joy, for now he understood everything.

Yes. I saw two prisoners two only amid a throng of others; their faces were transfigured by a light that was not the summer sun's and which no shrieks from the uncouth mob could dim, They were in a paradise of their own a kind of foretaste of that which was soon to open its gates to them above, They held one another's hands in the tumbril. 'How good God is" I heard the Coun- e tess say. and the Count replied, 'How good indeed, Lucie! Are you frightened, sweetheart?' Frightened-no Raoul: how should I be. with you by my side, and Christ waiting to receive us into heaven?' "I caught a last glimpse of their faces on the scaffold-the brightness and flush of youth seemed almost there once more. I heard her voice, thin. clear. sweet, like an angelic note, in a sudden silence that fell as she moved to her death, 'Vive le Ciel!' she said, and it was like a radiant smile. They had condemned her for harbouring the priests whn had refused the oath. Again I heard his the Count's; 'Vive la France!' he said. and a thrill seemed to run through the crowd. And again. 'Dieu rotege la France!' "My window closed, Rosalie ma chere, and tears were ipeaming down my face as I came beetc. to my own day again. But like the brave Count's, mine were tears of joy also. The Casket of Roses is the sweetest of all the gifts you have given me."

gard the Catholic girls. Our Catholic girls are in every line as good as others, and in the line of religion, which counts a thousand times more than all else they are infinitely better. It is often pitiful to see. how a Catholic girl, who has everything to make an excellent wife, in her appearance as well as her education, domestic training included, is spurned by the young man to whom she would be a lifelong, faithful, and affectionate companion.
