For the Cure of Piles

Is not only intensely painful, danger
Gus to life and very expensive, but in
the light Of modern medical research,
and since the discovery of the Pyramid
Pile Cure wholly unnecessary. If you
have any doubt on this point kindly
read the following letter from one who
knows that the claims regarding the
merits of the Pyramid Pile Cure are
borne out by facts.
For long time I suffered with blind
piles. They gave me so much pain and
uneasiness that they almost disquali-
fed me for doing anything. I saw an
ad in the Atlanta Journal of Pyramid
Pile Cure and ordered a 50-cent box.
I used them and they gave me relief;
that encouraged me and 1 bought an
other 5O-cent box and they cured me.
Oh. how glad that 1 am well again!
THE Pyramids cured me and 1 am
satisfied they will cure anybody else
who is suffering as 1 was, IL they will
use them.
You may use this in any way you
see proper. If my experience will en-
courage any sufferer to use your Pyra
mids shall be glad"

The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Dec s.
Although a number of cases of diph-

the campus the university health Off
GERS stated tonight that the situation
was well in hand and that there was
no danger Of an epidemic.
However, the fact that there were
numerous cases reported to-day has
created considerable excitement in the
college community and a number of
students have left for their homes, but
these have gone generally in response
to kilograms from home. A large
number of the women students in Roble
Hall have left the dormitory as the re-
suit Of two cases of diphtheria discov-
cred there, some of them going to Palo
Alto temporarily and others going to
their respective homes.
All social functions were stopped by
the authorities tonight in order to
prevent any unnecessary possibility for
further contagion. AS a result of the
order the dance which was to be given
by the young ladies Of Roble Hall and
another by the Sigma Chi Fraternity
were called off.

Century of catholicitz in Boston.

The celebration of the centennial of
the building of the Old Holy Cross
cathedral the first Catholic church in
Boston, took place Sept. 30
The old cathedral was dedicated
Sept. 90, 1903. 1t was the chief place
of worship for the Catholics of Boston
until the early sixties, when it was
sold. The Oldest Catholic church edifice
now in Boston is old St Augustine's
monastery chapel in South Boston,
which is eighty-four years old. 1t was
begun in 1919 by Bishop Cheverus as a
mausoleum for his friends and cola
borer Father Matignon. Later, as the
Catholic population increased, it was
used for the celebration of mass and
in 1881 was enlarged for use. as a par
ish church. with Father Larissy, an
Irish Augustinian, as the first pastor.
The pupils of seYenty-five parochial
schools, numbering nearly $4,000 scho-
ars, in the archdiocese of Boston,
united in exercises commemorative of
the centennial
The final observance of the centen-
NAL took place in Symphony hall Tues

Rise of Church in America.

The Roman Catholic church-its
growth and its power in America. is
discussed in a new work just issued by
Urban Gohier, a Frenchman who has
been in this country for some time
making study of the religion. He
cites the following facts to show the
power of the church in America:
The Roman church. which in the
United States numbered 1850 commu-
nicants in 1890, today numbers 12,OUU,-
coo or more.
To this we must now add $500, 600
of Catholics in the Philippines and L.
1000 in Porto Rico.
The territory of the republic main
tains one cardinal, seventeen archbish-
ops, eighty-two bishops, almost Ii 600
churches, more than 1000 chapels, with
1880 officiating priests.
There are eighty-one Catholic SEM
inaries, 1913 colleges for boys, 629 col
leges for girls, S,4OO parochial schools,
$50 orphanages and nearly 1000 other
various institutions. Finally, the
United States alone sends more Peters
pence to Rome than all Catholic coun-
tries together"

Jubilee Celebrations in Kentucky.

The Record of Louisville contains an
account of the silver jubilee celebra-
ton of Mgr. Zabler. Gathered around
him on this happy occasion were his
bishop and his brother priests, about
eighty in number, representatives of the
religious orders, and his devoted flock,
numbering on to 5000 Souls And gath

K. of C.,s History Chair.

The fund for the endowment of the
chair of American history at the Cath
Ole University of America is now
nearing completion. but the Knights of
Columbus. Washington, d. c., do not
propose to rest upon their laurels when
this work is done, Other plans of a ma
tional and far-reaching character are
being advanced and discussed, and will,
no doubt, be acted upon in due time
One proposition is to have executed by
some great sculptor statue of Column
bus of heroic size and present it to the
congress of the United States to be
located in one of the public squares Of
the national capital. There is no statue
Of Columbus in Washington, the only
memorial of him being the painting in
the rountda of the capitol representing
his landing on American soil. The ap-
propriateness of this gift to the ma
ton at the hands of the Knights of Co
lumbus is, therefore, self-evident. It's
acceptance by congress is not ques-
toned, although it had been suggested
that it might share the same fate as
the statue OF Father Marquette. All
of the senators and representatives who
have been consulted on the subject
agree that such gift would not meet
With the slightest opposition.

Pious Catholic Customs.

1t is pleasing to notice, says an ex-
change, the growing custom among
Catholics in acknowledging their faith
i'll the Blessed Sacrament by raising
their hats when passing church or
chapel where they know it is reserved.
This is Il sincere mark of respect to
our Lord ever present with us. 1t
shows that we are Catholics and not
ashamed of our religion. Another pious
and practical custom is to say a BRIEF
prayer for the holy souls when passing
a funnral nrnceSSiOn.

Noted Renedictine Dead.

a cable dispatch from Prague on
Sept y announced the death of Broth
er Karl, who was probably the most
famous member of the Benedictine or
der throughout the world.
Before entering the cloister. he was
Prince Edwin Schoenburg. one of the
handsomest and most reckless officers
OF the Austrian emDeror's guard. AT
30 his tastes suddenly changed. One
day he rode to the Benedictine abbey
from the parade ground and asked to
be admitted to the 9riory. The head
of the order refused his request. The
prince. breaking his sword. threw it
away, cast aside his epaulets and dec
orations and again begged for the habit
of q monk. His plea was finally
granted.
He went to Rome, studied theology
and was ordained. His entire fortune
he gave to the church and his life he
devoted to work among the poor.

Important, If True.

L'Osservatore Romano presents with
out comment a piece of news which, if
true, is a very important announce
ment to the Catholics of the English
speaking world. The Roman journal
says that new Roman patriarchate is
to be created with the title of The DC
cident, which will first be occupied by
Cardinal Michael Logue.
1t is further stated that the dignity
of patriarch will be inherited success

COMO was educated in part at St, Bona

Monsignor Falconio, who Joined the

came across the Atlantic before he at

more men than they had at the time,
and in response to an urgent appeal adj

Falconio, with another scholastic, was
sent from the San Bernardine province
Of Italy to the United States. Neither

Churchman Rather Than Politician.

1t is fortunate, from an international
point of view, that Plus Y should be
a churchman rather than a politician,
and more enSrossed with questions of a
doctrinal character than in matters of
state. For otherwise the Austro- Hun
garian empire would have cause for
alarm and grounds for apprehending
not merely a lack on his part of that
sympathy displayed byIeo XIII and by
Plus TX towards the dual empire bur
actual hostility. The fact of the mat
ter is that the new pope is a native of
that particular portion of the, kingdom
OF Italy where the animosity against
everything pertaining to Austria is so
intense that it may be said to be inn
bibeG with the mothers milk. II af-
fects every relation of life and people
of every social grade in the province of
Venice, and it is difficult to believe that
the new pontiff can have remained
wholly uninfuenced by the prejudices
of the people among whom he was
reared, to whom he is related by ties of
blood and of sympathy.
OF course. his long career in the serv-
ice Of the church may have, in meas
ure, modified these views with regard
to Austria, while the elevation to the
position of pontiff goes far to remove
the holder of that exalted Office above
racial rivalIies. since the wearer of the
tiara is not merely the pope of Italy
but Of Catholics in all countries of the
world. Still, at the same time, Plus X
has shown on various occasions, both
as priest and as pfelate that he is
strongly imbued. with italian patriot
ism, and this must necessarily leave the
impression that it will be aAmatter OF
difficulty for him to entirely conquer
the distaste for Austria which comes
