Virtues of Hot Water.

Hot water is medicine within the
reach of everyone. Half teacupful
as hot as can be drunk comfortably,
half an hour before meals, is a great
preventive of indigestion; it is one of
the best remedies for a disordered
stomach if little salt be added, and
the same is the best gargle for a sore
throat. Hot water is good for consti-
patton if taken at bedtime; if followed
up for few months it will work won
ders on the most delicate constitu-
ton.
Headache almost always yields to
the simultaneous application of hot
water to the feet and the back of the
neck.
A folded towel, dipped in hot water,
wrung out rapidly and applied to the
stomach, acts like magic in cases OF
collie.
There is nothing that so promptly
cuts short congestion of the lungs
sore throat or rheumatism as hot wa
ter.
A towel folded several times, and
dipped in hot water, quickly wrung
out, and applied over the painful part
in toothache and neuralgia will gen
orally afford prompt relief.-Medical

BOOK REVIEWS.

The California Ladies Magazine,
the only ladies' journal owned, man.
aged and edited by women, is credit
to the sex. The May number is of un-
usual interest, and contains features
that could be copied with advantage
by certain eastern journal of great
pretentions. 1t contains none of that
lordly advice and a dmonition that
makes every well regulated woman
ache to kick the mere man who
edits the other paper The Intermoun-
tain Catholic cannot afford to throw
stones, but a little more care in proof
reading should be exercised by the
staff of such high-class and artistic
publication as the California Ladies'
Magazine otherwise is.

they reason that they are already
taxed for the maintenance of the
church establishment and are not
bound to do any more. The French
clergy are, as whole, devoted body
of men, but no man is free from the
danger of yielding to temptation, and
the certainty of government pay must
be pretty strong inducement to men
who have never learned to rely on the
loyalty of their focks. Will these
priests desert their fellows for the
mess of pottage the government
serves out to them?
To the average American Catholic it
must seem that the time for separa-
ton of church and state has come
when the terms imposed by the state
are so destructive of self reliance and
self respect. The American priest
mood is infinitely better off in all that
those in holy orders should desire to
have than these shackled servants of
the French republic. The secular
clergy of France should examine the
conditions that obtain here. Per
haps the study would inspire them
and the Catholics of France in gen.
eral with greater courage than they
now seem to possess.

AS HE ORDERED.

London Tit-iBts tells a story of an
anxious mother who brought her
daughter to see famous London ply
stefan. The girl was suffering from
what some people call general low
ness" There was nothing much the
mater with her, but she was pale and
listless, and did not care about doing
anything, even eating.
The doctor, after due consultation,
prescribed for her a glass of claret
three times day with her meals. The
mother was somewhat deaf, but ap-
parently heard all he said, and bore
off her daughter, determined to carry
out the prescription to the letter.
In two weeks she was back with
the girl, rosy-cheeked, smiling and the
picture of health
The doctor naturally congratulated
himself on his skill, and said, cordial
ly: Il am glad to see your daughter
is so much better"
Thanks to you, doctorl" exclaimed
the grateful mother. "She has had
just what you ordered. She has eaten
carrots three times a day, and some
times oftener-and once or twice she
had them uncooked; and now look at
her!"
Another instance of the truth of the
old saying, God heals and the doctor
takes the fees"

WHY THE DIFFERENCE?

Protestant clergymen are often
sorely puzzled over the fact that
while Catholic churches are crowded
three or four times every Sunday
morning, winter and summer alike,
their own places of worship are ordi-
narily but sparsely attended at the
single, conveniently timed Sunday
morning service. They have long been
trying to master the art and science
of making people come to church, :"
but, as rule, with Indifferent success.
A minister in New Jersey, however,
has tried new experiment and with
results thus far most gratifying. A
short time since, few peWs contained
his congregation; now it packs the
whole auditorium. Like IXion's cloud
tower, it has grown to the sound of
music. Short prayers and sermons,
and a magnificent choir have done the
work. Votaries of the art divine will
go almost anywhere to hear good mu-
sic. If it can be had at church, so
much the better, and so much less
are they out of pocket in gratifying
their cultured prediction. More
over, the reverend gentleman above
mentioned, has educated the musical
taste of his people, and famous ora
torios are now relished-nay, craved-
by those who were erstwhile well con-
tent with popular hymn tunes.
But it is still asked, what crowds
the Catholic churches? Not all their
choirs are good, not all their priests
eloquent. And the earlier Sunday
services, at which the churches are
most densely thronged, are conducted
entirely without the adjuncts of mu-
sic or imposing ceremonial. What,
then, draws the people? All, no hui
man eloquence, no music were it of
the angel choirs themselves, could at
tract as does old when 1 am lifted
up, l shall draw all hearts unto my
self" Faith draws us to the Yeritable
renewal of the sacrifice of Calvary.
The Church sends us thither, to the
fulhllment OF an act essential to the
sanctification of the Lords day. For
mulas of prayers we may use accord
ing to inclination, sermons we may or
may not attend. But about Mass moth
ing is left vague or indeterminate.
We must assist at it. Yet it is love
rather than fear that fills our churches
on the Sunday from early dawn till
MONDAY In the words of a pious
ruler in the ages of faith, we, too, go
to see our Divine Friend, rather than
merely to hear about Him. The sense
of our manifold needs, and the GER
tainty that He can supply them, draw
US to His feet, for we know that in
the Mass we are offering no poor, i'm
perfect formula of prayerful words.

A MESS OF PoTTAeE.

The greatest danger which threat.
ems the Catholic Church in France is
the possibility Of creating breach be-
tween the secular clergy and the mem
bers of the various religious orders
now expelled from the country. This
is the evident aim and hope Of the
atheistic government, and existing
conditions are likely to aid it in its
truly satanic attempt.
By the terms of the Concordat the
secular bishops and clergy receive
small salaries direct from the central
government, and whenever a priest
shows his independence he is threat
ened with the loss Of his stipend. This
is no idle threat as is shown by the
fact that one bishop has recently been
cut off from the public crib for per-
hitting a monk to preach in his ca
thedral. The French people have
never been educated up to the idea
of voluntary support of the reverend
clergy. This state of mind is only
natural under the circumstances, for

L consider the founding of a Catholic
paper in Salt Lake not the least of the
many blessings bestowed by Provi-
dence on the Church here during the
past two years. It's birth occurred at
an opportune time. It's zeal in propa-
eating Catholic truth has had, since
Its inception, my hearty though silent
approval l believe with Our Holy
Father that "a good Catholic journal
is a perpetual mission in a parish"
and that it will serve as a question
box, at all times, for anxious inquig-
ers. In my visitations I shall hope to
find The Intermountain Catholic in
the homes of every Catholic family.
Its mission is to espouse truth, justice
and morality, and ali devoted priests
will find in it an able co-operator in
their missionary work. It is my wish
fhat all my priests and the laity en-
trusted to my charge should encour-
age your noble effort and that of the
generous founder Of The Intermoun-

THOUGHTS ON OUR LADY.
(Sacred Heart Reriem

God has given us the Mother of His
Son to be our Mother also.
Mary has from God universal and
constant mission to accomplish.
Boundless must be Mary's love for
souls, purchased as they were by the
blood of her Son.
Every effort we make to pay homage
to Mary goes entirely to Jesus.
through the most beloved, most faith
full, most honored and most meritori-
Gus OF all mere creatures-His own
Mother.
Every little flower placed on Mary's
altar, by even the tiny hands of a very
little child, is a sweet odor of the
love OF Jesus, offered to Him because
Oh the tender, ineffable love His Moth
er inspires.
The truth is, the Blessed Virgin is
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1903-05-30

to us one of the most invaluable mer-
cies of Jesus Christ. He loves us with
an everlasting love; and this everlast-
ing love was displayed, not only in
dying for us, in giving us all that ex-
listed in His very being, but, finally,
in giving us His own blessed Mother.
Woman, behold thy Son"-these
were our dying Lords last words to
Mary. Her heart, before so full of
compassion and charity, now opened
with an almost limitless love for every
human being, all the more intense as
the misery of that human being may
be greater.

A SHORT ROAD TO PERFECTION
By Cardinal Newman.

1t is the saying of holy men that, if
we wish to be perfect, we have moth
ing more to do than perform the or
binary duties of the day we'll. A
sort road to Professionalism, not
because easy. but because pertinent
and ineligible. AS soon as a person
really desires and sets about seeking
1t himself, he is dissatisfied with any
thing but wha. is tangible and clear.
and constitutes some sort OF direction
toward the practice of it.
We must bear in mind what is
meant by perfection. 1t does not
mean any extraordinary service, any
thing out of the way or especially
heroic-not all have the opportunity
of heroic acts, or sufferings-but it
means what the word perfection ordi-
narily means. By perfect we mean
that which has no flaw in it, that
which is complete, that which is con.
slstent, that which is sound-we
mean the opposite tG imperfect. He
t then; is perIects who does the work OF
tne Jay perfectly, and we need not go
beyond tGls to seek for perfection.
II You ask me what you are to do
III order to be perfect, I say, first: Do
not lie in bed beyond the due time OF
rising; give your first thoughts to
God; make a good visit TO the Blessed
Sacrament; say the Angelus devoutly;
eat and drink to Gods glory; say the
Rosary well; be recollected; keep out
bad thoughts; make your evening
meditation well; examine Jour con
science daily.

THE PoPE's ApMoNETIoN.

A Catholic newspaper in a parish
is a perpetual mission. Let all who
truly and from their souls desire that
religion and society defended by hu-
man intellect and literature should
flourish, strive by their liberality to
guard and protect the Catholic press,
and let every one in proportion to his
income support them with his money
and influence, for to those who de-
vote themselves to the Catholic press
we ought by all means to bringshelps
Of this kind, without which their In
dustry will either have no results or
uncertain and miserable ones.

Remedy for WakefuIness.

A physician says that acute insom-
MIA may be promptly cured by the
practice of deep breathing. Draw into
the lungs as much air as possible, and
do not exhale it until obliged to, and
then as slowly as possible. 1t is some
what of a task when the night is op-
pressively warm, but if persisted in
is fairly sure to relieve that hyperae-
mia of the brain which everyday folk
call wakefulness. The tricks of the
sleepless to induce sleep are many,
but none is found to be more immedi-
ately efficacious than this plan of fore
ing the lungs to take the burden off
the brain and nerves.

"a clear sky. The Colonel has been,

press of Wyoming, that it will seem

"a great deal Of interest has always
been centere |. He will he missed,
very much missed.

been SO thoroughly tried, and in ev-
