Church Spoiation in Mexico,

The tremendous revolution which
Juarez carried through when he seized
for the Government all the monasteries
and magnificent Moorish Cathedral and
church buildings, strikes one with won
der. The Spaniards not only establish
ed Roman Catholicism, but that religion
had come to supersede the worship of
the Aztecs in villages where the Spanish
language was unknown. Yet the con-
fiscation of all the rich holdings Of q
most powerful organization is now
viewed as an Indifferent matter. Cath.
olics would not buy Gods property
from the state, and beautiful churches
and large monastic estates were bid in
by men whose sons are hereby made
rich. Public libraries, museums, depots
and even factories find quarters in fine
old churches, and Protestants seeking a
spiritual home, are allowed their pick
of church buildings by the Government.
Out of the 800, 600, 600 of property thus
unduly seized, the Government appears
to have received but slight advantage.
The seizure enriched individuals, rather
than assisted in lifting the national debt.

Now He Wishes He Hadn't,


A young man goes twice week to
see a young lady residing few miles in
the country, making his journeys on
foot. On Friday night he remained
with his girl until midnight and found
it dark and showing when he went to
the door. He disliked to go home in
the darkness and limited the fact to his
girl, but as she did not invite him to re-
main over night, he resorted to decep-
ton to accomplish his design, and is
now sorry for it. He let himself fall
gently upon the steps and at once set up
a groan; the girl shrieked, the men
folks came out, picked him up and put
him to bed. His prospective mother-in
law inquired the location of his injuries,
and when he said in the small of his
back, she left the room hurriedly. He
had just begun to congratulate himself
upon the success of his ruse as he lis
tened to the storm beating against the
window when his intended mamma-in-
law returned to the room bearing huge
mustard plaster, which she clapped over
the region of his kidneys and sat down
