THE TRUE C4TROLIC LIFE.
BROOKLYN Catholic Review.


For n true Catholic, life is a long battle
"a battle with himself. and a battle with
tho world, with the old enemy of Gcd asd
mankind IN the background, directing the
movements and ordering tie fight. 1t is
true that by all men, Catholics or not, the
same battle has to be fought and the same
main intere ats are at stake. The real diff
ference consists in the knowled GO each n4sn
has of the nature of the fight, the cause for
which he is fighting, and of the enemies he
has to encounter. On these points all
Catholics who know their religion ere
agreed. Men of other denominations, or
of none, are apt to slip through life more
easily, to take things as they come, to be
as their nsighbors are, or sc they consider
their neigh6ors would have them to be, and
to let the hereafter take care of ltse.t They
live in and think life made for the present {
chiefly and they rule their lives go as to
make the present paes az pleasantly as II
may.
Catholics cannot take this easy view OF
-4,lte.y kRa2x what Life ia. its meanin inR
and it's value, for what and by whom it wai
given, and to what and tO whom it mus
tend. They know that they are redeemed
children of God, whose mesion it is, eact
ono in his degree, to spread the kingdom
of God on earth, and the kingdom of Coz

The announcement in The Times that
op Sunday last Father Heinan, of Mauch
Chunk, the priest who performed the SO
called "miracle" on Mise Greth, OF Read
ing, a week or 40 ago, would confess that
he had been duped, caused great excite
ment there and the congregation at early
Mass at Father Heinau's church was very
large. After Mass the priest said that he
held in his hand O letter from Archbishop
Wood, which he was commanded to reaa.
Without further comment he read as tol-
lows:

Father Buuce's congregation was also an

Bunce added, THAT is all that the Arch
