Few paupers in Catholic Belgium.

1t is the fashion of the present time, says the
London Monitor and New Era, for enemies OF the
Catholic church to cndcavor revive the exploded
fiction that where the Catholic church is there also
is poverty Incidence, ignorance and, consequent
ly, lack Of enterprise.
They forget that almost half the population of
the German empire is Catholic; that the Austro-
Hungarian empire is a Catholic state, and that if
lta, and Spain are TOO distraught to their
natuleI advantages to the best purpose it is those
forces that have always been antagonistic to the
Church on. the continent that cause the unsettle-
mcnt which renders steady industry next to inn

The British In Tibet.

1t is semiofically estimated that it has cost
somewhere from $30O0,O00 to 100000 for the
English camel to get his head inside of the Tbetan
tent BY the treaty of Lhasa Tibet is to pay $780,,
coo for her opposition to the entrance of the ami
NAL. For the next three years the camel,s head is
to find resting place in the Chumbi valley ho-
low in the Himaayas, and the principal southern
portal to that which is no longer the forbidden
Land
With a military garrison in occupation of that
valley, it will doubtless become imperative to es-
tabiish a better line of communication than the
present route. At the best the way is difficult
Between Sikkim and Chumbi there lies a mountain
range which is crossed at Jelep La at an altitude
Of about 1900 feet. With an eye to the hoped-for
advantages from the newly effected treaty, as well
to the necessity for traversble line of commu-
fication with her military outposts, England will
doubtless take early steps in the construction of
better road across the mountains. Later on. In
ten. twenty or i'll fifty years, will come extensions
until the tourists of days to come will be able to
reach lhasa by means of bullock carts over passa-
bic roads along which they may rest and sleep in
the dak bungalows now so familiar to travellers in
India

greater case than seemed possible No more than
the thin end of the wedge of civilization has yet

The Marian Exposition.

Late this month. or early in October, the Mari
an exposition will be opened in the Lateran pal
acc Rome This bids fair to be one of the most
interesting features of the Jubilee of the Immacu-
late Conception. France, Germany, Spain and Bel
GUM will be especially well represented. Wilma has
already sent reproduction of the celebrated Ma
donna which stands on the walls of the city, and
Innsbruck has forwarded an excellent copy of the
wooden images of the thirteenth century.
Cardinal Vincenzo .Vannutelli.. and Mgr dc
WAL have both promised TO lend many interesting
pictures and objects of MaEian devotion.
In Rome itself special collection of pictures,
statues and various works of art is being gathered
together from churches and private owners.
The exposition will probably be open through
out the great part Of the year 1905.

THE HOLY EUCHARIST.

The Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist was in
stituted by our Lord at His last supper. This i
q very rAetent fact in the consideration of the
subject. It Has much to do with proper inter-
probation of our Savior's words used on that me-
morabe occasion As told by st. Matthew XVI.
26-2S: Jesus took break, and blessed. and broke,
and gave to His disciples. and said: Take We and
cat: This is my body. And taking the chalice, ha
gave thanks; and gave to them. saying: Drink
We all of this for this is my blood of the New Tes-
lament which shall be she'd for many, for the re-
mission of sins"
Are the words of our Lord to be taken literally.
as maintained by the Catholic Church, or fgur-
atively, held by sectaran followers of Christian
lty! In other words does this sacrament contain,
under the appearance of bread and wine, really and
truly the body and blood of our Lord. The same
question suggested itself to our Lords disciples.
They understood our Saviour in literal sense, not
tiguratively. For did they not ask. How can this
man give us his flesh to eat =
Did our Lord correct them by saving that they
had misunderstood His meaning Did He say to
them that they were to do so in figure only I'm
less YOU eat the flesh of the Son of Man. and drink
His blood you shall not have life in you . .
for my flesh is meat, indeed and my blood is drink,
indeed was His answer. The occasion and the
circumstances which surrounded it demanded that
the disciples should know positively what our Lord
meant This He made quite clear to them, namely,
that His words were to be taken IN their literal
sense. In stronger confirmation of the fact are
the words of St. John Vi, $3.50: Then Jesus said
to the twelve: Will you also 20 away! And
Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall
we co. Thou hast the words of eternal life"
Our Lord, however. did not institute the sac
rament for the benefit of the disciples only but for
all mankind. Hence He made priests of His apos-
ties and to them and their successors He gave the
power to do as He Himself had done, saying, DO
