Cardinal Gibbons Writes the First Arti-
Gle for the First Issue of the New
Publication.
BALTIMORE, Md. January 11.-Car-
dinal Gibbons will have the first article
IN the first number of "The Catholic
University Bulletin" The Bulletin
Will be quarterly, conducted by the
professors In the interest OF the uni
versity. The subject which Cardinal
Gibbons treats is THE Church and the
Sciences"
II is in part as follows:
THE opening of an American Cath
Ollie University was significant in many
respects. 1t was entirely in accord with
the traditions Of the Church, which. after
endOwing barbarian Europe with Chris
tisnity and civilization rounded out this
double progress by establishing centres
OF learning. Hopes have been realized
in an Institution whose purpose 1t is to
give the Catholics of America. clergy
and laity alike, the iairest opportunity
TO bring forth and enjoy the fruits OF
higher education.
The measures adopted by Pope Leo
for the restoration of Thomastic phllo-
sophy, and the promotion OF scientific
pursuits are due not 10 impulslve en-
thuslasm, but rather to protecting,
1ar-slghted prudence. He realizes fully
the actual needs of Catholicism.
"As Catholics, w7 know of GER
tslnty that no real conflict can arise be-
tween the truths of religion and these
which science has Solidly demonstrated.
"In order that the honor of the
Church may De completely indicated,
il is necessary above all to do
away with the mistaken idea
that Catholics are not free TO
pursue scientific research. There Is in
manv candid minds lurking suspicion
that Catholics are kept in constant fear
OF running up against a barrier OF some
sort. OF being checked, 80 10 speak by
theological inhibtions. We deny
that in her solicitude for the
faith once delivered TO the
Saints, the Church interferes with
the legitimate action of science. 1t is
the finding OF scientists who go out Of
their proper sphere into that OF specu-
latlon on matters beyond their reach.
The church does not ask science to
furnish proof of her tenetS, nor does
she pretend TO fix the princi-
Piles and methods which science
shall follow.

DAY IN THE COUNTRY.

Did you ever spend a day away
from business in some recreative &C.
cupation which you afterward con-
Guided was the best investment of
time you had made in six months ?
Do you remember how ittold on the
next weeks work all through from
end to end, how much easier it was
to get along with Tom, Dick and
Harry, your clerks, how much more
smoothly you resolved your custom.
ers and how much more willingly
you bumored their whims ? If you
remember any such day az this take
another now. Go out IN the country
for single day if for no more, and
breathe, and gaze and listen. If
you don't come back with your lungs
full OF oxygen. your frame full of
life, your lite full of pictures, and
your ears full OF delightful sounds,
and go about the store wbistling and
humming and making everybody
feel comfortable generally, we des-
pair of causing you to feel good.

WHAT APPENDICITIS is.
The Cause of the Disease the Presence
Of Useless Organ.

AS there have been several promi-
nent cases Of appendicitis recently,
especially that OF Governor Akin
son, there is naturally desire on
the part of many 90 know something
of the nature of this disease. A
prominent physician gives this
statement with regard to it:
The vermiform appendix is long,
narrow, worm. shaped tube, the
rudiment of part Of the large in
tesUine existing in nearly all of the
mammallia, or the warm blooded
animals. The appendix is from
three to six inches in length and
has diameter about the size of a
goose quill. 1t is situated il the
right lower abdomen, joining the
large intestine below where tie
small intestine opens into the large.
Its structure is the same as tdat of
the large intestine, and it's cavity
communicates with that CT the large
intestine. The causes of appendi>
citis arise from the presence and
irritation in the vermiform appendix
of foreign bodies, such as the seeds
or stones of fruits, fshbones, pins of
scybalae, which is hardened mass
of fecal matter. OF these causes
scybalae are the most common. 1t
also results at times from the sharp
twisting or bending of the appendix
upon itself, or may arise as the re-
suit OF contraction Of the outlet, the
result of some previous il fammation
of slight extent. The great danger
is the formation of abscess and the
perforation of the walls of the APP
pendix and the discharging of its
contents into the abdominal cavity,
thus producing virulent inflamma-
ton Of the covering OF the intestines
and.ot the lining membrane Of the alb
dominal cavity, which inflammation
is called peritonistis. The object
of operation, which was only made
possible through antiseptic sur.
gerry, is to anticipate this perforation
and by the removal of the part, to
prevent peritonitis; or when per.
termed after perioratlon, to clean the
cavity and to check the inAamma.
ton. All cases do not perforate,
this being true only in small por.
ton OF them. The larger number
OF cases recover without perfoIation.
