a WONDERFUL CORPSE.


The Remains of St. Catherine of Bologna
stiI Endure Intact.
Cham bess' celebrated work on miracles,
wonders, general oddities respecting man,
curiosities of vegetable and animal life,
etc., which Is arranged as sort of calen-
dar and given the very inappropriate title
of 1.-THE Book of Days." has, through
some odd mischance, entirely neglected to
mention the miracle of the preservation of
the relics of st. Catherine. The wonder
full story has been q theme OF discussion
among church folks the world over for 300
or 800 years, yet the above mentioned
work, which purports to give an account
Of everything out of the ordinary, whether
vouched for or only reported, has entirely
ignored the marvellous narrative, not even
remotely abiding to it.
TheSt. Catherine in question was known
in life as well as after her death as "St.
Catherine of Bologna" Her remains are
now enshrined in a church bearing her
name in the city mentioned above, the
relics having remained in their present
position for upward Of 800 years. She sits
bolt upright in chair, her features and
form somewhat shrunken, the skin of the
face and hands badly discolored- fact,
almost black-yet her mortal remains are
not in the least decayed, it appearing, even
to the unbeliever, that the fates have de-
cided to keep her holy body uncorrupted
and her form intact until the great day Of
reckoning. The editor Of this article is
not Catholic, nor yet the son of Cath.
clio, and was never to his knowledge with
in the walls of church belonging to that
great denomination. Yet facts are facts,
and as such are deserving Of record, espe-
cially in department of this character,
which is entirely given up to discussing
the unusual and unnatural sides of every
thing. The accommodating priest in at
tendance at the shrine of St. Catherine
will, if requested. expose the arm of the
mummified saint to the elbow, and NOV
: ing it back and forth prove to your won
der and establishment that the joints are
as flexible as they were when the good
woman trod the streets of the ancient Ital-
ian cities 300 years ago. When Piux TX
was pope, he frequently visited the shrine
of St. Catherine, and while making such
visits never failed to say mass while in the
presence of the miraculously preserved re-
mains. On one occasion, while testing the
fexibility of her joints, he raised her hand
to the level of her head, then replacing it
in her lap remarked, "Fui minis audax"
Il was too bold).-St. Louis Republic.

From the Gate City, Keokuk, Ia.]
Mrs. Helen Myers whose home is at
3515 Vernon avenue, Chicago, and
whose visit to Keokuk, Ia, will long
be remembered, was at one time af-
ficted with a nervous malady which
at times drove her nearly to distraction.
Those terrible headaches are thing
of the past" she said the other day to
Gate City representative, land there
is quite story in connection with it,
too"
My nervous system sustained great
shock some fifteen years ago, brought
on believe through too much worry
ing over family matters and then al
lowing my love for my books to get the
better of my discretion where my health
was concerned. Why, whenever my
affairs at home did not go along just
as expected, would invariably be-
come FRUSTRATED from the excitement

indeed if the effects of the attack would
not remain for week. was obliged
to give up our pleasant home not far
from the Lake shore drive, because 1

ity. could find no place in the city
which deemed suitable to one whose
nervous system was always on the point
of explosion. To add to my misfor-
tunes my complexion uderwent change
and looked SO yellow and sallow that
1 was ashamed to venture from the
house at all.
Madam, said my doctor to me soon
after an unusually severe attack of the
malady, unless you leave the city and
seek some place of quiet, you will
never recover. y" So concluded would
visit my uncle, who lives in Dallas
County, Ia, and whose farm would
surely be good place for one in my
pitiable condition. I picked up the
Gate City one day, and happened to
come across an interesting recital of
the recovery of some woman in New
York State who was afflicted as l had
been. This woman had been cured by
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie. l thought that if Pink Pills cured
that woman they might do the same
for me. l began to take the pills ac-
cording to directions and I began to
feel better from the start. After had
taken several boxes of them was ready
to go back to Chicago. My nervousness
was gone and my complexion was fresh
as that of any 16-year-old girl in Iowa
and Pink Pills is what put the color
in my cheeks. No wonder l am in
such high spirits and feel like prize
fighter. And no wonder like to come
to Keol1uk, for if it had not been for
