ReUieW Of Current Events
Tn the Catholic UorId.

He FASTENED on to Chicago and his
address to that great religious gath
ering consisted of but these few words:
1T is the duty of you American Cath
olicS to go through life with the book
of Christian truth in one hand and the
constitution of the United States in
the other" He did not say we should
write the Declaration of independence
upon the fly leaves Of our Bibles and
catechisms, nor the Apostles Greed
between the lines of the constitution,
but sto keep religion and politics,
church and state, separate. And Leo
himself instructed us Americans to
carry our political and religious af-
fairs along parallel paths, not in TIE
same line-Americans fell in love with
Leo for those utterances, and shed
grateful tears when he died.
Satolli was received with open arms
all over the nation. He then took up
the school question, declaring that the
government lad a right TO establish
its own schools in order to protect it
self against ignorance and that Cath
Olics might send their children to them
If they could not give them as good
an education in Catholic schools. If
we Catholics will live up to the spirit
of Leo's and Satoli's instructions all
Americans will soon fall in love with
the Catholic church, and only thus can
we Catholicise America.
The American principle is continual
ly showing itself in every direction.

country became involved in war with

The Body Beautiful.

4 brilliant writer said to me the other
day that the world seems to be revert
ing TO the old Grecian love of physical
prowess and admiration for the BODY
beautiful. Of course, we are long way
from this yet. Fancy our hollow chest
ed, pigeon-toed women with their
square hips and hour glass waists
dressed as Greeks used to dress. Fan
cy our average business man with his
protuberant paunch and skinny arms
posing as Greek hero.
Sad as this thought is, there is room
for encouragement. Our people, both
men and women. are improving in size,
figure and carriage, and will continue
TO improve. Whether the general intel
ligence and mental development will
ever reach as high an average among
US as it did among the Athenians is
quite another question.-Dr. Richard
Cole Newton in the Medical Record.

Lemon as a Beautiier.

Lemons used externally will aid in
identifying any one. There is nothing
more, valuable for the toilet table than
a solution of lemon juice; a little
rubbed into the hands, face and neck
at night will not only whiten but soft
en- the skin A paste made of magnesia
and lemon juice applied to the face
and hands upon lying down for fif-
teen minutes rest will bleach the skin
beautifully.
For discolored or stained finger
nails a teaspoonful of lemon juice in
a cup of warm soft water is invalu-
able: this is one of the very best man
icure aids 1t will loosen the cuticle
from the nails as well as remove dis
colorations. In the West Indies a lem
on bath is almost a daily luxury. Three
or four lines or lemons are sliced into
the water and allowed to lie for an
hour, in order that the juice may be
extracted A remarkable sense of
freshness and cleanliness is given the

Lemon julie in water is an excellent
dentifrice. This is about the only sim
pie remedy for removing the tartar and
is also valuable for sweetening the
breath. Lemon juice and a pinch Of salt
will remove the most obstinate Of
stains. Never throw away lemon or
orange peel. for these alone will often
take away stains without using water

the most Catholic of nations, Spain,
every American priest at every mass
prayed for the success of our arms.
Why not? 1t was political war and
religion had nothing to do with it.
save TO urge Ills to do our political
duty. Wien we took the Philippines
the Spanish clergy sold out and went
home, but the church is not complain

because the Catholics Will not perform
the important civil duty in a republic
of voting for good officers. When
few years ago the nation threatened
to revert to q monarchy, Leo's Word
saved the republic lie preferred re-
publics. \ separation of church ana
state is imminent in that oldest of
Catholic nations at any day, and the
church is ready and willing to separate
at any moment. This was announced
by Catholic reporters to Catholic news
papers two months ago, An Asso-
ciated Press dispatch from Paris, the
. twelfth of this month says that the
NaClCan ordered Il UUliDSI VI II iSilCH
bishops to resign. but tEey first con-
suited the president who persuaded
them to disobey Then the vatican
threatened to withdraw their episcopal
powers unless they came 10 Rome in
fifteen days. The dispatch adds that
the dismissal of the bishops against
the government wishes viii be con-
sidered as formal remuneration of TIE
relations between church and state
There is little doubt that Plus y. Is
of the same political mind as Leo XIII.
The union of church and state initiates
him also, and when the Austrian gov
eminent exercised its veto at his cleo
ton he promptly deprives it of the
right to NEEDLE with the selection OF
another pope.
1t is wonderful that America, which
has grown so prosperous and become a
power of the firstclass in the political
world. should at the same time become
a model for the Catholic world to fol-
low, but such is truly the case. Our
church did not hesitate to adopt the
truths of the heathern philosophers IN
it's early days, and it is not too old to
see the wisdom OF the American idea
in these modern times. Our church
never grows too old to learn.

FIy Frights.

London women have discovered an
agreeable way of Kidding their homes
of flies and mosquitoes.
They burn sandelwood in the mousse
an idea imported from the Orient.
In London it is possible to get wood
prepared for the purpose.
In America it is TO be had at almost
any Turkish or Japanese importing
house.
It is then prepared for burning by
being first cut into small pieces one
baIf inch thick and three inches long.
Then it is baked or dried out in a
slow oven twenty-four hours. A piece
of the wood is put into metal urn;
lighted, and allowed to burn until Wei
afiame. when the flame is eXtinguished
and the redhot ember left to smolder
until the wood is consumed and nothing
is left but heap of fine gray ashes.

The Teaspoon of Waste.

"A woman can throw out of the
window with a teaspoon more than d
man can bring in on shovel" is d
most homely old saying with much
truth.
A few out of many dozens of ways
Of filling the teaspoon of waste are:
Buying articles simply because they
are cheap and expected to come in
handy some time.
Using sheets for ironing tables, nap
kins for dish towels, and towels for
dish cloths.
Using silver forks and spoons in the
kitchen.
Opening timed meats, preserves. etc,
forgetting all about them, and leaving
them to spoil.
Letting pieces of bread dry and mold
and then throwing them away.
Placing brushes with the bristle sides
up.
Wearing the same clothing each
week as it comes from the laundry.
Using the same table and bed linens
each week as they come from the
laundry.

Paris prcsgmakers in TRUST.

All the principal dressmakers of
Paris have joined in trust of an al
together new kind, it being nothing
more than a trust de relegance. The
members of the new combine include
such well known names as Armand,
Beer, Cabot Cheruit. Doucet, Doeu-
tilet, Baferriere, Redfern, Rouff and
Randnitz.
For many seasons past the German
and Austrian dressmakers have been
buying the best models from big Paris
houses and then selling at a reduced
price copies of these models to second
rate houses all oyer Europe and Amer
lea As a result, when the genuine
client of a Paris dressmaker had
bought a high-class original it was
often merely to find on returning home
the same model already produced by
wholesale.
Complaints have been frequent, and
to offset this a trust has been formed.
Members of the new organization have
decided to show none of the new
models to foreign buyers before Aug.
is. and to deliver no models to the con-
tinental trade before Sept. Is. Ameri-
can buyers, however. may have their
models one week earlier,

would be acquitted by the club if [
handled one important event with any
thing like the ability it deserves, but
l cannot even promise that; for the re-
viewer is supposed to know all about

could tell me all about Catholic affairs,
but they were not Catholics themselves,

litical question first came up in God $

In the meantime a new nation sprang
I'D in a new world, and it not only re-
pudiated the very idea of king but
made its corners stone the separation of
church and state. Caesars things and
Coos things were forever to be kept in
their proper spheres. The banner of
civil and religious liberty was flung to
the breeze and the oppressed and per-
secuted of old Europe flocked to its
protection. It was a new idea for this
old world and all mankind watched the
experiment until it has now been proved
the most successful form of govern
ment ever devised by man. And surely
God has given his approval by grant
ing no such blessings as no people ever
enioyed before. Church and state both
prosper.
And now come to the subject l pro-
pose to discuss.
Nearly score OF years ago the
president of the United States pre-
scented the pope of Rome with a copy
of our country's constitution, and
from that time until his death, Leo
Kills praises of America rang around

religion nor prohibiting the free eXer-

to America for consolation. 1T is the
only country in which 1 am really
! pope he repeated again and again.
And soon the press, noticing the
great friendship that had sprung up
! between the church and our country,
! sent a reporter to ask Cardinal Glib
bons if the church were Catkolicising
America. The cardinal replied Amer
| lea is Americanizing the Catholic
| church." But American Catholic did
not understand the public school con-
troversy was raging. A great Catholic
congress was called to meet at the
Chicago Worlds Fair and it looked as
though we Catholics were about to
inject religious matters into politics.
Leo sent Satolli. He first paid his
respects to President Harrison who
greeted him warmly and said "Cardi-
nal, l am glad you have come. 1t is
becoming a question whether our Cath
olics are going to uphold our Amer
lean institutions or tear them down.

HOW YOU MAY GET A

Marion Martineau in Chicago Tribune.
They used TO have a way in the
south Of restoring color to faded
cheeks Accompanied by her nanny,
and under her stern command, she
was made TO take a rough towel in her
hand and rub her cheeks vigorously.
But hard rubbing with a coarse towel
should never be permitted by any wo-
man. She should not do it herself,
nor should size allow her masseuse to
do it for her.
The skin should always be handled
delicately and prettily and daintily.
For the skin of a girl is like unto the
skin of a peach. There is the delicate
velvety outside, and there is the inner
skin. and the delicate layer wherein
lies the coloring matter. Once break
through this and you cause disfgure-

the ancients of Israel asked him for
king, and the Lord said, "Harken to all
they say, for they have not rejected
thee but me-" God allowed his people
TO run their politics to suit themselves.

that they would have to take the con-
sequences of their foolish choice.

Cold Salt and Water Effective.

There are women who can use cold
salt and water upon the face with
splendid results. But it is well to eX-
pertinent slowly. There was certain
woman, a reader of this column. whose
face was like parchment. There were
hundreds of little lines in ii. She had
tried many things, but none seemed 70
agree with her. Then she tried cold
salt and water. She doUsed' her face
with it. putting it on once every day
of her life. In little while Eer skin
grew pure and pink and fresh. 1t
needed this certain tonic.
But there are q great many people
who cannot stand the salt water cure.
and there arc many skins that would
be- made muddy by it, but all can take
the hot water dip. And it is the most
effective of all remedies.
Tie pinching metGod of reddeninS
cheeks is much employed abroad. Yet
one ought not to make this assertion
So broadly. The mere pinching Of the
checks viii make them painful and
viii not redden them for more than
few minutes at a time. They will be
black and blue next day. Many a wo-
man has utterly spoiled her cheeks by
puchiug them into color.
