ITALY no ABANDoN DIvoRcE.

| Dowager Queen Margherita has carried her
| point and largely ewing to her effort the crown
and government in Italy have abandoned the pro
ject of endowng the kingdom with law of divorce,
which it does not now possess The late kind stood
committed thereto, andso too, did his ministers. by
pledges made IN the national legislature short
time before his murder in 1900. In fact, the bill
! had been drawn up by Ministers Zanardelli and
Cocco-Ortu. But Victor Emmanuel, yielding to his
mothers entreaties, always managed to delay its
submission to parliament and now that the recent
general election has returned larger conservative
majority than ever before he has caused it to be
nounced that the divorce bill viii be relegaed to
oblivion.
In doing this he is certainly acting in accord
ance with the wishes of his people. For there is
at the chamber of deputies monster petition with
over 100000 signatures, protesting against the
adoption of any divorce law, and, moreover it con-
stitutes species of return to the vatican for the
assistance which the church gave recently to the
government in the general election. The papacy
has of course been bitterly against the projected
divorce law, and It's abandonment marks the exis-
tence of more friendly relations between the quri
nal and the vatican than have existed at any time
since Rome became the capital of united Italy.
Queen Marguerite is sincerely religious
man, in every sense of the word daughter of the
church, who has suffered cruelty from the antag
onism which has existed between the italian crown
and the papacy. She is exceedingly regular in her
attendance at mass, and is the only member OF the
reignng house of Italy who has crossed the TIRES
hold of ST. Peter since 1870; no official notice be-
ing taken of her frequent presence by the authori
ties of the great basiHca. She may be described
as having fought tooth and nail against divorce,
and as she is amazingly popular and possesses I'M
bounded influence. not only her the king,
but likewise over most of the leading men in Italy,
the abandonment of the bill may fairly be looked
upon as her victory.
All those American women who arc unhappily
married to Italian noblemen and have been look
ing to the projected divorce law for release from
their matrimonial bonds will, of course, now have
to give up their hopes of securing dissolution of
their union unless they can induce their husbands
to establish full Pledged legal domeile or to Sc
cure naturalization in some country where divorce
figures on the Gods of laws. Any decree granted
by an American court, unless the husband estab-
lished legal domicile here or became a citizen,
would be invalid in Italy.
l may add that III Ireland, too divorce does not
exist. 1t is the only part of the British empire
where this condition of affairs-a relic of old
Catholic times-survives. Irish courts can grant
judicial separations but for divorce it is necessary
to have recourse to the tribunals in England

A HERO OF FAITH.

Until few days ago, says the New World. a
poor white-haired Polish priest lived III Chicago.
He was Old he was feeble. he did not understand
English yet one who met him frequently says he
was always kindly and cheerful some little child
The other night sick call came to the rectory
and found him the only priest watch He was
aged and sick, but he answered the call He rose
and went forth and shrved the dying and returned.
and in the morning he found dead.
May he rest in peace. He did his duty. I'm his
unsefishness he gave his life in order to the
soul of another. He answered the higher call and
left his unselfishness as an example to all of us.
Verify, the heroes OF the faith many, although
the world may seldom know their deeds.
The priest III question Rev. j. Radziejew-
ski the unassu1ning ard beloved pastor of St.
Ada1bert's church. and few men have been accorded
greater honor than that paid to his memory on oc-
casion of his funeral All business in the parish
was suspended. The business places and residences
in the vicinity of the church were draped in mourn
ing and the entire congregation took part IN the
funeral procession marching afoot and blocking
traffic for over an hour More than $4,000 persons
we're III the line, with 200 carriages for clergy
Sisters members of parish societies and friends of
the dead priest. Archbishop Quigley the cele-
brant of the Requiem mass and Bishop MuldoOn
and over 100 priests assisted in the services.
Father Radziejewski was born in the dukedOm
of Posen sixty years ago, educated in Rome and
daned priest in 1869 He came to Chicago in
1881 He founded the Immaculate Conception
parish in South Chicago, and twenty years ago was
appointed to the charge of st. Adalberts parish,
which now has membership of $4,000 and parish
property valued at $25000O.

CLING To THE CROSS.

The late Admiral Sampson told this story to an
audience of small boys in the parlor of social
settlement house. They were ragged small boys of
more than one nationality. but they proudly called
themselves Americans, and they had to see
and near American hero.
The admiral judged his audience correctly al
once He saw that they were at the impatient age,
and he plunged straight into his story.
81 want to tell you of something which hap
pened on my ship the morning the American feet
took the harbor of Santiago" he said, and ali the
wrigglers stopped wrggling. There was "a happy
sigh throughout the room, then breathIess silence
You all remember that battle ?" Vigorous nod
dings from every head. And you know my ship
was late getting there" More mods "All round
us, as we sailed i'll, there signs of the Spanish
defeat-wreckage, dead men, disaster Now, who
can tell what day of the week that was =
Sunday shouted the audience as one boy.
Eyes, Sunday morning; and we always have
prayers ON the admiral's ship Sunday morning. The
little reading desk with the cross carved the
top of it, was still standing OH deck We had gone
into battle so hastily that one had time to put
the desk away. 1t little thing easily moved
about.
80 we sailed along and there was death and
destruction Oh the face of the waters And the bat
tie was won. But among the dead things and the
burning things which foated the water we saw
a man swimming. He was Spanish sailor-one of
our enemies. He was making struggle for his
life but there was nothing near enough for him to
cling to, and each stroke he made was fainter than
the last The shore long way off. According
to the rules of war, had not time to save his
life; besides, he our enemy"
The room was very STILL every eye was fixed on
the admiral
''Some of us on that side of the ship he con-
tnued watched the curious4y, wondering
how long he would hold out. Then. all of sudden.
one of our sailors picked up that little reading desk
and pitched it over the side of the ship into the
sea.
'"sHere friend he Said, Cling to that Cling
to that cross, and it'll take you safe to shore
"Of course, the Spaniard couldn't understand
those English words but the action was unmistall-
able; and the last of the poor fellow he was
clinging to the cross and moving toward the shore
That is the kind of Americans you want to be,
boys-the kind that sailor was aboard my ship"
Then they all stood up in the settlement parlor
and sang america" till the ceiling trembled.

HARRY AND THE DOCTOR.

Papa" said Harry, what does a man NEAR
when he says TO another man. I'll fix you."
+ Now, Mr.. BonsalI was reading the evening paper
and didn't want to be disturbed, so he answered
rather impatient1y:
Don't bother me, Harry. Don't you see that
am readingl"
But papa" said the boy Il wish you would tell
me, for | want to know, and I won't bother YOU
any more"
ooh, it means III do you up"
"'l'll do you up" repeated Harry; and then
after thinking moment-"but, papa, what does
III do you up mean?"
Now I'll tell you" said the father land then
you must not ask me another question this even
ing. 1t means that some is going to kill an
other man.
And Harry, who was only five opened his eyes
wide locking stupefed, and presently walked away
About week later the little man was taken Ill,
and as DIR. Ainslie, the family physician. was not
within easy reach, strange doctor was called in.
This doctor had solemn face and solemn man
ner, and Harry did not feel altogether sure of him.
Presently Mrs. Bonsall left the room to get some
thing that was needed and Harry thought he would
make friends with the doctor by opening a con-
versation with him.
Going to give me some incidence loctor!"
ooh, yes" answered the doctor. I'm going to
give YOU medicine. Don't worry, my little
man; I'll fix you"
Suddenly there came to Harry the explanation
given him of those fearful words and throwing off
the covers, he leaped out of bed, rushed for the
door, and before the doctor could recover from his
amazement at the boys astonishing behavior, the
little fellow clinging to his mother out in the
hall and begging her to send away the man who was
going to "do him up"
1t took half an hour to get Harry quieted down
and another half hour to persuade him to take the
strange doctors medicine

DAVID DORSEY.
ESSAY ON THANKSGIVING DAY.

In the early part OF the reign Of James /. some
people in the village of Scrooby, Nottinghamshire
undertook to establish a church where they could
worship as they pleased. But they were prosecuted
and some of them were thrown into prison In
1908, they fed to Holland where they were not
troubled.
But they didn't want TO settle in Holland per-
manently, because they did not want their children
to intcrmarry with the Dutch. They wanted to
make homes in new land and there establish
free government.
They went to Plymouth, England, and got two
ships, the MaFfower and the Speedwell. But the
Speedwell was so leaby that they had to abandon
il. The Mayfower set out with about one hundred
people on board.
In November 1920 they reached America and
landed at Plymouth Rock. BY spring half of their
number were dead, and they had to plant corn over
the graves so the Indians wouldn't know how few
their numbers were. That year their crops did not
Yield very good and they nearly starved The next
wear they had a good harvest and Governor Brad
ford proclaimed a general Thanksgiving.
The people were very busy preparing for it be-
cause they had invited Massasoit and his Indian
braves 10 the feast. The men went into the woods
and shot wild turkeys and rabbits, and they got
berries from the woods too. The women were busy
making pumpkin pies and cooking other good
things. The feast lasted three days and even then
the Indians didn't want to go.

A NEW BARTTMEUs.

few days ago that unfortunate lady, the
Marquise DIES Monsters Merinville (the secret OF
whose sudden declaration is still unexpained) de-
cared that she left the faith because her eyes had
been opened by living in Europe. Strange to re-
late, another person living in Europe had his eyes
opened about the same time. La Croix the vigor-
Catholic daily of Paris, in its issue of Nov 81,
published startling letter from Henry Sehaffer,
French Protestant publicist who, several years
since, distinguished himself as the founder of the
Union of Christian Churches but later wrote
many violent articles against the religious orders
In his letter, dated Rome, Oct. 25 M Schaffer says
in part:
After much study and prayer have renowned

This is a free translation. but it proves that
even Protestants of that very France in which the
Marquse has lived. have also had their eyes opened
For years Schaffer was famous in French Protes-
tant circles but he has found light in Rome-even
IN the Catacombs Odd, is it not. that the Marquse

The old fashioned stockings and hearts and
crosses and animals cut out Of tarlatan outlined
with worsted and then filled with fiat candies and
tied on the tree are always popular ornaments.
Sugar figures bought in the confectionery store will
serve to break the monotony. The baker at
Christmas time usually has his windows filed with
horses, dogs, cats and men and women made of
delectable cake dough and artisticay ornamented
with coored sugar attractive to the small boy and
girl. Candles in small candle holders are always

Rnnnrna cHR1srMAs CANDLE.

We are inclined to pity the Puritan little one
Of New England who knows nothing about merry
Christmastide with It's rollicking games of blind
mans buff, hunt the slipper, snapdragon and the
like, but some of them enjoyed the practice which
they called burning the Christmas candle This
taper was a homemade affair and differed from
other tallow dips only in being larger and having
tho wick divided at the lower end to form three
legs while at its heart was concealed quill well
filed with gunpowder. On Christmas eve it was
lighted. and the quaint little Puritan folk sat
around telling stories and riddles until suddenly
the candle went OF with tremendous explosion
making delightful excitement and giving the
children of the coloAies their only taste OF up
roarious holiday fun.
