CHAPTER XIV.

Of judgment and the punishment OF
sinners.
In all things look to the end, and how
those will stand before the strict judge,
from whom there is nothing hid; who
takes no brides, and receives no ex-
cuaes, but will judge that which is Just.
o, miserable sinner. thou wilt an
swer unto God, who knOWeth all thy
evil deeds-thou who art sometimes
afraid of an angry man!
Why dost thou not provide thee
against the day of Judgment, when no
man can be excused or defended by an.
other but each one will have to an
swer for himself?
Now thy labor is profitable, thy tears
are acceptable, thy grOans are heard
thy sorrow is satisfying and purifeth
the soul
The patient man hath a great and
wholesome purgatory; who suffering
wrongs, is more concerned at another's
malice than at his own injury; who
prays freely for his adversaries. for
giving their offenses from his heart;
who delays not to ask pardon of others;
who is easier moved to pity than an
ger; who does frequent violence to him
self and strives to bring his flesh wnol-
ly in subsection to the spirit
Better is it to purge away our sins,
and cut off our vices now. than to keep
them for purgation afterWard
Truly we deceive ourselves, through
the inordinate love we bear the flesh
What else will that fire devour but
thy sins?
The more thou sparest thyself now,
and followest the flesh, so much the
more dearly shalt thou pay for it here
after, and the more fuel dost thou lay
up for that fire.

A Chance For Plain Girls.

This is the era of the plain girl in
business, said leading milliner, and
the girl whose beauty is so insistent
that none may deny it has to stand
aside for her palmer sisters. You will
find that is the case in nearly every
business establishment in the big towns.
Not that there is any aversion to mod
crate beauty in the employees-that is
often to be desired; but pronounced
loneliness is entirely too attractive,
both to it's possessor and contemplation,
to facilitate the interests of employers.
Go into any large milliner's and you
will see scores of girls behind the coun-
ter who are quite plain, although not
positively ugly. You will seldom find
one whose charm of face or grace of
form is so near to perfection as to hold

In what things a man hath more
sinned, in those things shall ne be most
srievously punished.
There the slothfuI will be picked
with burning gCads, the gluttonous tor
mented with extreme hunger and
thirst; there the luxurious and the low
ers of pleasure will have burning pitch
ana foetid sulphur rained upon them:
and the envious. like dogs, will howl
for grief
There will be no vice but will have
its own peculiar torment.
There the proud will be filled with
confusion, and the ayaricious pinched
with the most miserable want.
There one hour of punishment will be
more grievous than a hundred years
of the most bitter penance here Theirs
will be no rest, no consolation for the
damned, but here we sometimes cease
from labor and enjoy the consolation Of
our friends.
Be, therefore. SOLICITORS and sor-
rowful for thy sins. that in the day Of
Judgment thou mayst be in security
with the blessed; for then the just
against those that have afflicted and
oppressed them. Then will he stand up
to judge who now humbly submitteth
himself to the judgment of men.
Then shall the poor and humble have
great confidence, and the proud will
fear on every side.
Then will it appear that he was wise
in this world, who for Christ's sake
learned to be fool and despised.
Then every tribulatiOn borne with
patience shall be pleasing, and ali in
EQUITY shall stop her mouth. Then shall
every devout person rejoice. and all bad
persons shall be sad. Then shall sim
pie obedience be more highly exalted
than all worldly cunning.

the Sacred Heart was beating all that

! the Sacred Heart was beating all that
! night awake with hers.
But it was more than this that Marie
| saw. Forms radiant with brightness
and beauty far beyond the glory of
! the setting sun her eyes had looked on
last; angel faces. harps Of gold that
rang with the sweetest music. in that
| music a chant of heavenly glory ming
| ling, raising grand hosannas to the
| King of Kings. And the door of the holy
| shrine stood open, and within she saw
| a child more fair, more sweet, more
radiant to behold than any angel there,
He locked at her, he smiled at her,
| toward her he held his hands, where
plainly she beileld the sacred wounds.
! That smile! that look-no pen can tell
them, no pencil paint them. Watching
them, all time was nothing: no one
could think of time, or dream of fear
or know aught of pain and trouble
| while such bliss was present.
Marie! Marie! Marie"'
She had not heard the step that came
through the forest, crushing the twigs
and boughs beneath it; she did not
know that the night had passed away
and the morning sun was shining in
her face. If beast or bird or creeping
thing had touched her once in all that
cold. drear night. she could never tell,
for the face of the Lord of all created
sight had charmed all else away.
But Stanislaus, her only brother and
the only relative that Marie had, COM
ing home from college for a brief holt
day with his little sister and choosing
the shortest way through the tangled
copse and thicket wood rather than the
beaten track, in order that he might
reach her the sooner-choosing it by his
good angels guidance-saW a sight that
made him doubt at first that what he
had seen could not be the truth. He
had reached his little Marie even soon
e. than he had planned.
He had started long before the sun
was up so that he might find her in
church at early mass and kneel with
her once more before the Lord they
loved. Could this be she? this lonely,
tightly bound, deathlike creature that
lay there stirring not. nor sobbing nor
showing any sign of life whatever.
MARIE Marie! Marier'
He tore away the bandage from the
dear eyes; slowly she opened them as
one daZZled by some great light which
she could not see. Her face turned
toward him stopped his eager question |
ing; suddenly they were indeed at
church hearing mass, even as he had
hoped and planned.
She showed no surprise, no suffering, |
no joy on account of earthly pains that
were past or earthly joys that were |
present. He knelt down beside her, |
holding his breath in awe, not daring |
to speak again and break that holy 81
lence. Presently she sighed, as if with |
mingled happiness and sorrow.

In an ancient convent dwelt for many
years, from her very childhood to ad-
vanced old age, a nun who bore the
name of Sister Marie of the Blessed

but always upon that placid face there
was look that spoke of joys more
deep than smiles could tell-a look that
her sister nuns affirmed was sWeeter
than any smile they ever saw.

THE POP CORN MAN.

There's a queer little man lives down the

With windows open to all who pass.
And A low little roof that's nearly fiat,
And a chimney as black as papa's best

Because it's the home of the popcorn
man.
How does he sleep. if ne sleeps at all?
He must roll up like a rubber ball.
or like squirrel. and store himself
An huddly-cuddly under the shelf,
If he wanted TO stretch he'd scarce have
In his bare little, spare little, square lit
lie space.
He seems like a rat coooped up in a can
This brisk little, frisk little popcorn man.

For he's just like the men I've seen in
With his hair worn off. and his squinty
And Els s9' wrinkles. too-oh. know he's
And fhen lust think of the way he makes
THE corn all jump into snowy flakes,
With a pop! pop! pop in his covered
This queer little. dear little popcorn

Monsieur FAbbe Baireaux has offer
ed to educate, free of all charge seven
English boys under II years of age.
These boys are to be prepared for the
priesthood, and after their ordination
they will return from France and give
their life and energies to the CONVEX
sion of England. 1t is thought that the
offer will appeal especially to converted
ministers who have sons. but no money
to fit them for the sacred ministry.

TWO LITTLE FACES.

].
Two little faces of two little girls.
One with straight hair and the other
with curls.
one face as calm and as grave as nun,
One with a smile like the rays of the sun.
Two little sisters in loving embrace,
Innocent souls in the garment Of grace:
Eyes that can sparkle like stars in the
night,
Hearts that hate evil and love to do right.
All, the wealth of the home is not jewels
nor pearls
IT'S the light from the eyes of its dear
little girls,
Both the ones with straight hair
And the ones with the curls.
Two little faces Of two little boys.
one that keeps still while the other makes
noise
one likes his book and the other his bat,
one hates a quarrel, and one loves a spat.
Two little brothers in loving embrace.
One with the seal of a saint on his face:
one bubbling over with frolic and fun,
Brimful of mischief that's hurtful 10 none.
All, the life of the home in its sorrows and
