ST. MATTHEW, APOSTLE.

One day, as our Lord was walking by
the Sea of Galilee, He saw, sitting at the
receipt of custom, Matthew, the publican,
whose business it was to collect the taxes
from the people for their Roman masters.
Jesus eaid to him, "Folow me;" end
leaving all, Matthew arose and followed
Him. Now the publicans were abhorred
by the Jews as enemies of their country,
outcasts and notorious sinners, who en-
riched themselves by extortion and fraud.
No Pharisee would sit with one at table.
Our Saviour alone had compassion for
them. So St. Matthew made great feast,
to which he invited Jesus and His disciples
with q number of these publicans, who
henceforth began eagerly to listen to Him.
It was then, in answer to the murmurs of
the Pharisees, that He said, "They that
are in health need not the physician.
have not come to call the just, but sinners
to penance."
ed some years in Judeas and there wrote
his GOSPEL, to teach his countrymen that
Jesus was their true Lord and King fore
told by the prophets. His devotion was TO
the majesty of Christ, the Sovereign of our
hearts, who spoke with authority and
claims obedience from His creatures, and
who one day will come again to judge the
whole world. st. Matthew afterwards
preached the faith far and wide, and is
said to have finished his course in Parthia
st. Matthew told St. Briget, as che one
day prayed before his tomb, that before
his vocation he had tue good intention to
wrong no one, and was looking about for
an opportunity to be rid of his dangerous
employment, so as to adhere to God with
his whole heart. The call to follow Christ
30 inflamed his soul, and the words of the
Divine Preacher we're go precious to him,
that from thGt moment he thought no nore
of earthly riches than OF so muea stra"
He could only weep With joy that our Lord
had deigned 10 call so mean . person and
so great sinrer to HIS grace.

ST THOMAS OF yILLANovA.

ST, Thomas, the glory of the Spanieh
Church in the sixteenth centRry, was born
A. d 1888. He was educated at Alcala
under the eye of Cardinal Ximenes, and
professed philosophy there and at Sala-
manca. A thirst for the science of the
Saints led him after two years to resign
his digoities, and to enter the house of the
Austin Friars in the latter city. 1t was in
the chair of truth that the fervor of his
charity became first publicly known.
Crucifx in hand be would fall into rapture,
exclaimiDg, 80 Christian, look here, look
here" CharlessV. listened to bin as an
oracle, and appointed him Archbishop of
Valencia. On being led to his throne in
church, be pushed the silken cusbions
aside, and with tears kisssd the ground.
His first visit was to the prison the sum
with which the chapter presented him for
his palace was devoted to the public hos-
pitsl. As q child he had given his meal
to the poor, and two thirds of his episcopal
revenues were now annually spent In aims.
He daily fed five hundred needy persons,
brought up himself the orphans of the city,
and sheltered the neglected foundlings
with mothers care. During his eleven
years episcopate tot one poor maiden was
married without an aims from the Saint.
Spared by his example, the rich and the
selfish became liberal aud generous !;
and when, on the Nativity of our Lady,
A. 1855, St. Thomas came to die he was
we'll nigh the only poor man in his see.
St Thomas, being warned of his coming
death, prepared himself for it by general
confession and the last Sacraments and
distributing what money he bad to the
poor, sent his other goods to the rector OF
his college, except the bed on which he lay.
And that he might leave the world naked
as he entered it, this bed he gave to the
jaiier for the use of the prisoners, borrow
ing it from him only till he should be gone.
On the morning of September 8, feeling
his strength fail, he ordered Mass to be
said in his presence and after the priests
Communion, with the words, In manus
tuas Domino consmendo spiritum meum, be

ST. JOSEPH OF oUPERrINo.

Like his father, st. Francis, God made
Joseph great in HE kingdom by making
him like little child. When he tried to
study he fell into ecstacy. He was turned
out of the CRpuchins as q useless inject
when they stripped him of his habit, he
said it was as if they tore off his skin.
Received among the Minor Conventuals,
he sought to become priest. lie could
only learn one gospel-"Beatus venter."
Trusting in our Lady, he presented himself
for exRmin alton the bishop gave him the
gospel to interpret and was satisfied. His
life was q revelation of the gifts of the
blessed in heaven. Fragrance sweeter than
any earthly perfume exhRled from his
flesh and filled the whole convent. It was
calculated that he spent half his life lifted
from the earth in prayer. Three times, he
bore men in his arms upward in his flight.
The world was transformed in his sight /;
when he went ont, if he met woman he
would say that he had met our Lady or
some Saint. He looked at q flower, and
then bore it upward in the air, crying, 10
God, go, visible and yet forgotten" He
called the troubles of life the war of chill
dren with popguns. Obedience was the
carriage which took men sweetly to para
disc. He died, A. d. 1861 saying, "Cupio
disSolvi )" then, "Victory, victory I"
Our Lady is the reward of those who
humble themselves as little children in the
kingdom of God. Once when asked what
he cared for most in the world, st. Joseph
snswered: 81 desire nothing but to reside
at the Grotella near the image of the
Blessed Virgin, whom 1 venerate and
I love-" When he entered the church of
Assist for the first time, and saw in the
roof a picture of the Mother of God, like

ST. JANUARIUS, MARTYR.

ST. JANUARIUs, MARTYR.
Many centuries ego St. Januarius died
for the faith in the persecution of Dioce-
tiap, and to this day God confirms the
faith of His Church, and works q coDtiDa-
al miracle through the blood which Janua-
rius shed for Him. The Saint was Bishop
of Beneventum, and on one occasion be
travelled to Misenum in order to visit
deacon named Sosins. Young as Sosius
Was-for he died at tbirty-Januarius
reverenced bis sanctity and spiritual wis
dom. During this visit Januarias saw the
head of Sosius, who was singing the gospel
in the church, girt with flames, and took
this for sign that ere long Sosius would
wear the crown of martyrdom. So IT
proved. Shortly after Sosius was arrested
and having confessed the faith steaofsstly
in the =midst of extreme tortures, he was
thrown into prison. There his friends st.
Januarius visited and encouraged him. till
the bishop also was arrested 10 turn Soon
the number of the confessors was swollen
by some of the Deigbboring clergy. To-
gether they were led in chains to Puteoli.
They were exposed to the wild beasts in
the amphitbeatre. The beasts, however,
did them no harm and at last the gov
ernor of Campania, afraid of the effect
which the miracle might have upon the
crowd, ordered them to be beheaded. Lit
tie did the heather governor think that he
was the instrument in Gods hand of usa-
ering in the long succession of miracles
which attest the faith of Januarius.
The relics of st. Januarius rest in the
cathedral of Naples. He is the special
patron of that city, which he has saved
again and again from destruction in the
eruptions of Mount VesuviHs and it is at
Naples that the liquefaction of his blood
occurs. To this standing miracle the most
ilustrious men in Christendom have borne
witnese, and the Ingenuity Of heretics has
vainly tried to explain it by natural causes.
The blood is CONCEALED in two glass walls.
But when it is brought near the martyrs
head it melts and flows like the blood of q
living man. sit is," says Baronius, "as if
the blood were impatient for the moment
of the resurrection, when it will flow
through the body which God will raise in
the glory of iEcorruption."

ST. AIDAN, BISHOP.

Aidan was monk of the island of Hy or
Iona. From this great monastic establish
ment, founded by St. COLUMBIA, went
forth many bishops and preachers into all
the land as far as the Tyne. At the invi-
tatiOn of Oswald, King of Northumbria,
Aidan undertook the conversion of that
country; and, while he was still imperfect
in the English tongue, the king himself
would act as his Interpreter. The Saint
travelled everywhere on foot, urging the
faithful to frequent the Sacramento, and
the heather to give aims and do good.
Whatever be taught he practised; and
though he rebuked the powerful with true
reproofs in a spirit of such Christlike
meekness, humility and sweetness, that
none ever took offence. BE fixed his epis-
copal see at Lindisfarne, afterwards called
"Holy Island, y from the number of Saints
who were nursed and trained in the mon
astery founded there by the Saint; whence
also sprsng the noble monasterIes which,
in later years, covered the country from
the Tyne to the Forth, and owned Holy
Island as their motherhouse. Adams
converts were known for the fervor and
aasterity of their lives: even the laity OF
the north tasted on all Wednesdays and
Friday the greater part of the year.. st.
Aidan died A. d. 631, and st. Cuthbert,
then a shepherd boy in Lauderdale, saw
his soul ascending to heaven, and was
inspired to renounce the world. He was
buried in his church in Holy Island.
When an apostolic missionary complained
once that the English of Northumbria were
obstinate, barbarous and wild, St. Aidan
said, cit eeemeth to me, my brother, that
you have beer too harsh with your uncul-
tured hearers. According to the admoni
tion of the Apostle you should have given
them first the milk of mere easy teaching,
that being thus gradually fed and
strengthened by the Word of God, they
might, little by little, be led to understand
the deep things and perform the perfect
things of His hoy law" WheTeupon the
whole of his brethren judged that he him
self was the one who ought to be sent to
preach to the North um briaps.
