convent at Topgres in Brabans, but lived
in discontented etate, secretly sighipg
for worldly life. One day when sbe had
gone to gossip, as was her wont, in the
her. Pointing to His still bleeding Heart,
He bade her seek in Him alone the joys of
Divine love. From that hour LRtgarde
repouDced the world and its follies, and
began new life OF prayer and peaance.
During the bloody struggle with the Albi-
Rences che offered herself 3 victim for the
Church, and suffered most fearful tortures
of mind and body. To conceal the mira
colous gifts with which she WAS favored,
she exchanged to the Cistercian Order, and
prayed earnestly that she might remain
there unknown. Her petition was granted
She lived for forty years in a community
of French nuns, from whom, by her igno,
rance of the language, she was completely
isolated. Towards the end of her life, her
solitude was further increased by the total
loss of sight. AT length, in 1l46, her eyes,
which had been closed for eleven years
opened to behold troop of blessed spirits
who came to lead her to heaven.
The gift of healing which st. Lutgarde
possessed brought to the convent numer-
GUS visitors, who interrupted her silence
and observance. The Saint, therefore,
prayed for some other less dangerous
grace, and received the power of under
stan ding the secret things of Sacred Scrip
ture. Still che was dssatisfi fed, and com.
plained that such high mysteries were not
for one 30 simple. "What wouIdst thou,
then z" asked Christ of her. -"Not Thy
word, bat Thy heart, o Lord, for me-" she
replied. In that moment and from that
time the Sacred Heart of Jesus was present
in the heart of the holy maiden, purifying
her and encouraging her to suffer; thence
forth she never knew another wayward
desire or evil thought, but lived in and for
her Lord.

B. PETER FAvRE.

Born A. d. 1506 of poor Savoyard shep
| herds, Peter, at his earnest request, was
sent to school, and in after years to the
University of Parie. His college friends
were st. Ignatius of Loyola and st. Fran
| els Xavier. Ignatius found the young
mans heart ready for his thoughts of apos-
| tolic zeal Peter became his first com pan =
ion, and in the year of England's revolt was
ordained the first priest OF the new Society
of Jesus. From that day to the close Of
bis life he was ever in the van of the
Church's struggle with falsehood and sin.
Boldly facing beresy in Germany, he la
bored not less diligently to rouse up the
dormant faith and charity of Catholic
courts and Catholic lands. The odor of
Blessed Peters virtues drew after him
into religion the Duke of Gambia, Francis
Borgia, and q young student of Nimeguen,
Peter Canisius, both to become Saints like
their master. The Pope, Paul III, had
chosen Blessed Favre to be his theologian
at the Council of Trent, and King John
III. of Portugal wished to send him as
patriarch aud apostle into Abyssinia. Sick
and worn with labor, but obedient unto
death, the father FASTENED back to Rome,
where his last illness came upon him. He
turned his thoughts at once away from all
other cares to get his soul ready for it's
departure. He died, though hardly forty,
as one would wish to die, in the very arms
of bis be st friend and spiritual father, st.
Ignatius.
One day when the Saint was going to
hear the lenten sermon in the court chapel
at Valladolid, "the porter, not knowing
me-" he tells US, "did not admit me, and
so, remaining outside the door, called to
mind how often had given free entrance
into my soul to vain thoughts and bad
spirits, and had refused it to Jesus, who
was knocking at the door, and how badly
Jesus Christ was received everywhere by
the world. I prayed for myself and for
the porter, that the Lord might not make
us wait very long in Purgatory before
entering heaven. Many other good
thoughts then came into my mind and
therefore felt great affection for that
porter, who had occasioned me so much
Devotion"

IMMATURE LIVES OF THE SAINTS.

ST OSWALD, MARTYR.

ST OSWALD, MARTYR.
On the dethronement of his father, the
pagan king Of Northumbria, Oswald took
refuge in Scott and, and was brought up a
Christian by the monks of Iona. After
some years he collected an army to regain
Oswald set up on the field a great wooden
cross, before which he and his army knelt
in prayer. That night St. COLUMBIA in q
vision assured him of the victory which on
the morrow regained for him his throne.
The conversion of his subjects was now
Iona, went with him from village
to village, and acted as his interpret
er and catechist. The two Saints labered
and prayed together with such earnestness
and faith, that Northum bria soon became
Christian land. Oswald loved much to
sing Office with the monks in choir, and
after lauds would remain through the night
in prayer. At the same time he attended
most carefully to the needs of his subj ects,
and by his charity won their hearts. On
Easter day, when sitting down to q ban
quet, he was told that a crowd of destitute
once sent out a silver dish full of meat,
and ordered the dish itself to be divided
among them whereat st. Aidan, who was
at table, seizng the kings right hand, ex-
claimed, MAY this hand never perish I"
The prayer was prophetic when q few
years iSter OSWaid Ieil IN oatGle, DIS rlgng
hand and arm remained incorrupt.
After Oswald had reigned most prosper
ously for eight years, his kingdom was
invaded by Penda, the barbarons king of
Mercia The inferior army of the Saint
could make no head against the pagan
host. When at length Oswald saw his force
entirely surrounded, and flight impossible
he entreated Heaven for the souls of his
soldiers. AS one by one they fell, their
sovereign's prayer went before them to the
judgment seat. At last the Saint himself
was slain, and his dying prayer, so God,
be mercifnl to their souls" passed into a
proverb in the North.

ST. LAURENCE, MARTYR.

St. Laurence was the chief among the
seven deacons of the Roman Church. In
the exercise of his Office he ministered to
the poor of Christ, and his charity to them
proved the occasion of his martyrdom. In
the year 256 Pope Sixtus was led out to
die, and St. Laurence stood by weep,
ing that he could not share his fate. "I
was your Minister" he said, '.when you
consecrated the Blood of our Lord why
do you leave me behind now that you are
about to shed your own - The holy Pope
comforted him with the words, "Do not
weep, my SOD, in three days you will fol-
low me-" This prophecy came true. The
which the Christians put into the hands of
the clergy, and he dem anded the treasures
of the Roman Church from Laurence, their
guardian. The Saint promised at the end
of three days to show him riches exceeding
all the wealth Of the empire, and set about
collecting the poor, the in6rm, and the
religious who lived by the aims of the
faithful. He then bade the prefect "see
the treasures of the Church." Christ, whom
Laurence had served in his poor, gave him
strength in the conflict which ensued.
Roasted over slow fire, he made sport of
bis pains. 81 am done enough" he said,
"eat if you will" At length Christ, tine
Father of the poor, received him into eter
nal habitations.
God showed by the glory which shone
around st. Laurence the value he set upon
his love for the poor. st. Leo tells us that
Rome was not less honored by the death of
Laurence than Jerusalem by that of Ste
phen and we know from st. Augu stine
bow many miracles were wrought at his
tomb. A brother of st. Ambrose was
saved from shipwreck in consequence of a
VOW which he made to st. Laurence.
Prayers innpmerable wsre granted at his
tomb; and he continued from his throne
in heaven his charity to those in need,
granting them, as st. Augustine says,
and leading them to the desire of better
gifts."
