SADIE AND MOLLR.
Two Nice Little Sunday School
Gtrls, and How They Spent

Two Nice Little Sunday School
Girls, and How They Spent
Their Money.
(WaShlngtOn ChIuncle.l
In Sunday School in this city on Sun
day last friend OF the cause from Bla.
densburg was introduced, who, after los.
ing his wayseyeral times in the exordium
OF his lew remarks, rose on his toes,
closed his eyes, and proceeded to address
the children as follows; "0nce on
time, my little lambs, there were two lit.
tie girls, one named Sadie and one named
Mollis, and Mollie was u very good
little girl that used to save up
all her pennies for the Sunday
School, and learned plenty Of verses,
and never mussed her dress, and was such
u comfort to her mother as you can't
think. And Sadie was careless little
girl; she never wept Tor the heather, and
she yawned in church, and usednt to care
where she was going to when she died,
Dear children, you ought always to re-
member that. (Intermission Of ten SEN
fences for moral refreshment.) So one
day their Great Uncle Peter, after whom
they were both named, came to see
them, and gave them each q new fifty.
cent shinplaster. So Mollie took her
fifty cents to the Sunday School, and put
1t in the box to buy tracts for the little
heather children that couldn't read, and
it so happened that the wicked heather
had caught and killed missionary and
were about to roast him, and when the
heather chief went to light the fire in the
cooking stove he took one OF these very
tracts to do 1t with, and read the con.
tents, and he and all the tribe were con-
verted. So you see how much good you
can sometimes do with a very little
money, But Sadie went out by herself
and took her fifty cents and bought with
it-what do you think she bought with
it-what do you think she bought with
it? Well, | will tell you. She bought
some oranges, and some apples, and some
figs, and some raisins, and some gum.

about him, and he knows and feels that
he stands target, against which an un.

l"Ma!crIalIsT and Its Opponents" in the Fort.
night Review
The liberal Ond intelligent portion Of
Christendom must, take It, ditierentiate
itself more and more, in word and act,
from the fanatical, foolish and more pure.
ly sacerdotal portion. Enlightened Ro.
man Catholics are more especially bound
to take action here; for the travesty Of
heaven and earth Is groSser, and the at
tempt to impose IL on the world Ia more
serious, In their community than else
where. That they are more or less alive
to thisstate Of things, and that they show
an increasing courage and independence
In their demands for education will be
plain to the reader OF the apology for
the Belfast Address" The "MemOriap
there referred to was the impatient pro-
test Of barristers, physicians, surgeons, So
lcitors ind scholars among the Catholics
themselves. They must not relax their
pressure nor relinquish their demands.
For their spiritual guides live so exclu-
sively In the pre.scientifc past, that even
the really strong intellects among them
are reduced to atrophy as regards scien'
tific truth. Eyes they have, and see not;
ears they have, and hear not; for both
eyes and ears are taken possession Of by
the sights and sounds Of another age. In
relation to science, the ultramontano
brain, through lack OF exercise, Is viz.
tnally the undeveloped brain OF the child.
And thus II Ia that a. children In Scien.
tiic knowledge, but M potent wieldera OF
spiritual power among the Ignorant, they
cOuntenance and enforce practices suIli.
Cient to bring the blush OF shame to the
cheeks of the more intelligent among
themselves.
Such Is the force OF early education
when maintained and perpetuated by the
habit Of subsequent life; such the ground
Of peril In allowing the schools OF nation
to fall into Ultramontane hands. Let
any able Catholic student, fairly educated
and not yet cramped by sacerdotalism,
get real scientifcgrasp otthe magnitude
and organization Of this universe. Let
him sit under the immeasurable heavens,
watch the stars in their course, scan the
mysterious nebulm, and try to realize what
II all Is and means. Let him bring the
thoughts and conceptions which thus en-.
ter his mind face to face with the notions
OF the genesis and rule Of things which
prevade the writings Of the princes Of his
Church, and he will see and feel what
