The following is translation OF the
note addressed by the Vatican to the
Catholic powers in protest against Presi-
dent Loubets visit to Rome:
2Sth of April, 1904.
The coming to Rome of NJ. LouDet,
president of the French republic, to pay
an official visit to Victor Emmanuel III,
was an event of such exceptional grav-
ity that the Holy See cannot allow it to
pass without calling to it the most seri-
Gus attention of the government your
excellency represents. 1t is scarcely
necessary to point out that it is incpm-
bent on the chiefs of Catholic States,
bound as such by special bonds to the
Supreme Pastor of the Church, to show
him greater regard than the soyereigns
of none Catholic States, in so far as
his dignity, independence and inalien-
able rights are concerned. That duty,
hitherto recognized and observed by
all, in spite of the gravest political rea-
son, alliances, or relationship, was all
the more incumbent on the Chief
Magistrate of the French republic, who,
without having any of those special mo-
tives, presides over nation united by
the closest traditional relations with the
Roman POntifcate, and enjoys, in virtue
of a bi-lateral compact with the Holy
See, signal privileges, a large representa-
ton in the Sacred College of Cardinals,
and, consequently, in the government of
the universal Church, and also exercises
by signal favor protection over Roman
Catholic interests in the East.
Therefore, if, by coming to do honor
in Rome-that is to say, in the very
seat OF the Pontifcate, and in the Apos-
toIic Palace itself-tO him who, in DE-
fance of all right, usurps the civil SOW
ereignty and restricts the necessary lib
erty and independence of the Holy See,
the chief of any Catholic nation COM
mits a grave ofense against the Sow
ereign Pontiff, the ofense committed by
NJ. Loubet was graver still The fact
that, nevertheless, the Papal Nuncio has
remained in Paris is due solely to very
urgent motives of special order and
nature.
The declaration made by M. Delcasse
to the French Parliament to the effect
that this visit implied no hostile inten-
lion toward the Holy See cannot alter
either its character or its meaning, for
the ofense is in the act ITSELF and the
more so because the Holy See had not
neglected to VAIN the French govern.
ment against it. Public opinion, both
in France and in Italy, did not fail to
perceive the offensive character of that
visit, Intentionally sought by the Italian
government with the object Of weaken
ing the rights of the Holy See, the dig
nity of which was insulted. The Holy
See regards it as its chief duty to pro-
tect and defend its rights and dignity in
the interest of the Catholics of the
whole world. In order that painful
fact should not constitute precedent,
the Holy See has found itself obliged to
protest against it in the strongest and
most explicit manner, and tie under
signed Cardinal Secretary Of State, by
order Of His Holiness, informs your EX-
cellency it, requesting you to bring
the contents of the present note to the
knowledge of the government of

MEDICINAL.


Keep your blood clean as you keep your
body clean You don't wait until your
body is foul before you cleanse it.
IL is n matter of surprise that many peo-
ple who are so careful to have clean bodies
make no effort to keep the blood clean.
Everyone knows that uncleanness breeds
disease; that those who do not keep their
bodies in a wholesome condition and who
dwell in flthy surroundings are the FIRST to
fall when some epidemic of disease sweeps
the country. But foul blood is more dam
gerous to the individual than foul body.
An unclean body is rather a passive than
AN active hindrance to health. But unclean
blood is an active threat against the very
life--it makes the body prepared breed
ing place for disease.
II Is part of Natures plan for human
safety that in many cases where the Dlooo
is impure or corrupt she sets sign on the
BODY In proof of the corrupt current that is
flowing through the veins. Scroiula win
its disfguring sores and scars, eczema with
its irritation, salt-rheum, letter, eTysipelas,
boils. pimples and other eTuptons are only
the outward signs of the impurity OF the
blood. But often In the earlier or simpler
stages of the bloods impurity there are no
outward signs of this condition; only dull,
languid, sluggish feelings, which are COM
monty attributed solely to the sluggishness
of the liver
OF all preparations for purifying the
blood Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry easily takes the first place. 1t elimiu-
ates from the blood the elements which
clog and corrupt 1t, and which breed and
feed disease. It acts directly on the blood
making glands, increasing their activity,
and so increasing the supply Of rich, pure
blood which is the life Of the body.
Accept no substitute for rColden Med
ical Discovery" There Is nothing Just
as good" for diseases of the stomach,
blood and lungs.
