News come from Rome that nine more
martyrs put to death for the faith by the
Reformation in England will soon be-
beautifed. They are three Parliament

new invention does away with the start

one of his arteries opened, so as to have
some of his own blood transferred into
the veins of the dying man. The doctor
accepted the reverend fathers offer and
