THE CROSS FOR THE CROWN.

Woudst have no pain.
WOuldSt have no care.
Wouldst have no cross to bear?
Wouldst have not one single thing,
A shadow Ger thy life to fling?
Then how cOuldst earn
The crown so bright?
Then how couldst dwell in Heaven
Then how couldst wear the garment
fair.
in the shining realms over there?
When life is done
And the battle won
And the weary soul at rest,
We then shall know
Why ii was So
That things were for the best.
When the deathbed gIides
Ger the sOmbre tides,
And the voyage at last is Ger;
When the spirit stands
On the shining sands
OF the great fOrevermore.
Then mystery's vale
From the eyes shall fall
And a new vision be given to all;
Then, indeed, shall it be known
That the reason why
The cross was borne
Was in order that the crown be worn.

MoTHER-So

White little hands,
Pink little feet,
Dimpled all over,
Sweet, sweet, sweet!
What GOst thou wall for?
The unknown? the unseen?
The ills that are coming.
The joys that have been?
Cling to me closer.
Closer and closer.
Fill the pain that is purer
Hath Danish the grosser.
Drain, drain at the stream. love,
Thy hunger is freeing.
That was born in dream, love,
Along with thy being
Little fingers that feel
For their home on my breast,
Little lips that appeal
For their nurture, their rest,
Why dOest thou weep. dear?
Nay, stifle thy cries,
Till the dew of thy sleep, dear.
Lies soft on thy eyes.

Father walworth concludes in the
January issue of the Catholic World
Magazine a most interesting series Of
"reminiscences of the state of religion
in England fifty years ago, while he
was a Redemptorist missionary there.
The story in the present number is of
the trip across the Atlantic as he came
with Father Bernard, the great Re
demptorist missionary who was the
first to inaugurate missions as they are
now understood in this country. Fa-
Their Bernard was undoubtedly a great
man as well as great missionary. Fa-
Their Walworth says that it was his
desire and design to establish a house
of the Redemptorist Order in the Unit
ed States, where English would be the
prevailing language, and from which
missionaries understanding English
we'll could be supplied. In this\pro1ect
he failed, and on his failure hangs
one of the most interesting chapters of
ecclesiastical history in the United
States. aa

symptom was, he said. the refusal Of

This opinion comedies with the view

would be decisive. While a complete

1T seems difficult, in view Of the
strategy accepted at the war Office as

General Butler is to be allowed once
