from its religious aspect, partakes of
the same character as those melting
to patriotism
The principle upon which Catholic
devotion to the Virgin rests is that OF
honoring God in his own works, wheth-
er of creation or grace. Praise be-
slowed on any work reflects on the
workman The admiration of beau
tiful painting the artist claims for him
self. The praise of handsome build
ing or a grand statue is the praise of
the architect and sculptor who design
ed and executed. So it is with all
creatures honored and praised-their
merit, goodness and perfection are but
a reflection of the divine attributes
and their praise is the praise OF the
Creator.
Sanctity produced by the grace OF
God is his supernatural work, and as
such is worthy of the highest praise.
Devotion to the saints is the honorlng
of God in his works CT grace, which, on
the principle that God should be hon.
ored in his works, is justifiable- In
the order of sanctity, of all creatures
Mary was the highest. She was full
of grace" and blessed among women
FullneSs of grace denotes the greatest
sanctity and highest perfection a
creature could possess. and for this
reason the church honors Mary as the
greatest saint and sanctions her Etany
of praises: not, however. as separate
and distinct from God, but in God. who
is infinitely higher than and superior
to any or all creatures.
Devotion to Mary and the saints in
no wise interferes with or takes the
place of the supreme love and homage
due to God and paid to him, according
to Catholic teaching. God alone is
adored and there is no name other than
Jesus which will secure salvation. AS
Gods creatures, in them is reflected his
highest and noblest work of grace; the
praise and veneration paid them. be-
cause OF their sanctity, is reflected back
on God, its author,
Each child carried crown or boquet
of roses in its hand, and when the al
tar of the virgin was reached cast the
offering at the feet of the statue. Lit
tie Margaret Banks then placed a
crown on the statue, and the ceremony
was concluded with singing ave Ma
ria Stella by the chorus of children.

THE DISCOVERY OF oI,N,vn

In company Of prominent physic-
ians each was asked to write the six
remedies that he would take on board
ship for a voyage around the world If
his life were to depend on the number
who should return alive
The first entry was opium" unan-
imously Endorsed. At the second en-
try the vote was tie between "mer-
cury'' and "quinine," and now that the
bichloride of mercury has been found
to be the most efficient of microbe
killers, probably that would have sec
ond place unanimously, and the third
would be unhesitatingly given to the
various extracts of the bark of the
several varieties of the cinchona, of
which the most familiar is quinine, a
name derived from that used by the
Peruvian Indians, who called the tree
kina. The oldfashioned method of adj
ministration was by macerating the
quills" of bark in wine, and the great
tonic in the early part of this century
was ''bark and wine,'' and as in these
later days it has been demonstrated
to be directly fatal to the bacillus ma
laria, we can easily understand what a
boon it was to the settlers" in the I'M
drained and fever nd-ague'' regions
of this country when new. At last. by
of extracting its alkaloids was found,
and of these no less than thirteen are
known and used, and some of them pro-
duce valuable medicine at less cost
than quinine itself.
In 1854 the Dutch government under
took to raise the trees in the island of
Java, and now they have most pros
porous plantations, but the most extern
sive and successful of what may be
called intelligently conducted planta-
tons are to be found on the slopes of
the Himalayas and IN British Burmah.
In South America the bark is obtained
by first stripping the trunk, then fall
ing the tree, but under English botan-
lists in India way is found of partially
stripping the trunk and then sur
rounding it with moss, causing fresh
bark to be produced. The botanists
have even found a way of making the
bark fuller Of the desirable allSaloids.-

While she holds me Off and scolds me.

Cries and cries on, sobs and signs on,
Daring me TO dry her eyes.
Pressed for reason for such treason
To the happiness we've had,

ST. Mnry,s Cathedral.

The conclusion of the May devotions
at st. Mary's last night filed the little
cathedral from altar rail clear to the
entrance door. The event was the
browning of the statue of the virgin
by the children of the Sunday school.
About one. hundred and fifty partici-
pated and during the procession appro-
pirate hymns were sung.
Before the ceremony Father Kelly
explained its nature and the principle
upon which Catholic devotion rests.
The ceremony about to be witnessed,
he explained, is not part of Catho-
lie teaching or faith. 1t had its coun-
terpart in worldly professions; for ex-

No DOUBTS OF THE RESULT.

1t is not probable much time will be al
lowed for debate. The conference reports
will be given the right of way whenever
presented. Under the rules, the last six
days of the session are suspension days,
and this fact Will enable the house TO
clear the calendar in brief time of sew
eral pending bills, including the Phillips
commission bill, the Erdman arbitration
bill and several other bills. The Johnson
Stokes contested election case, which was
left hanging when the house adjourned
Friday, will be disposed of tomorrow.
The partisans of MIR. Johnson, whose
claims to the seat were rejected on two
votes, will be directed toward ousting
Stokes and thus declaring the seat vacant.
Some fear of a vote of the general de-
ticiency bill is expressed among the men,
bers because it carries the French spolia-
ton claims
