ones. often they are prominent in the community and are considered emil nently respectable. But they are given over, body and soul, to money-getting' and are really abusers of the world as the drunkard. the gambler or the roue.
 Let us forget-which the average Christian seems not to realize at all- that men of business can abuse the world as truly as men of pleasure. Yes, hesitate not to affirm that more men are starving their souls and dwarfing their higher natures through the pursuit of business than through the pursuit of pleasure. Business is one of the cares of this world, and the cares of the world are far more in- sidious and pernicious than its pleas
 ures. Also they affect far greater number. It is a very striking thing
 that God'sa holy word warns us
 great deal more against the cares of
 life than against it's pleasures. Let
 me add that the man who follows bus
 mess so closely during the week he
 is too weary to come to his Fa-
 ther's house to worship Him an hour
 or two on Sunday, or who stays away
 in order to attend to business on that
 day, going to his bank or office, or

 CT to 20 to the theatre or open on
 Sunday. oh, yes! but it is quite right
 and proper for the Protestant to ab-
 sent himself from church on account
 of business! One is here prompted to paraphrase Madame Roland's famous saying: 70. Liberty, what crimes are committed in thy name" and exclaim, 70. Business, what sins are committed in thy name"
 Let us not, I beseech and implore you, abuse the world for It's fashion passeth away, that is, it's scheme, it's plan. its design. It lasts but for time only. There is a limit to its ex- istence. St. John, you remmeber, tells us, There will be a new earth.
 Hence, this must pass away. Why then, fix our affections, which are perhaps, the chief part. certainly the most important part of ourselves, upon that which is transient and fading, for this is just what we do when we abuse the world. We should make
 1t our servant and beware lest it be- come our master. We may use 1t. We may engage in its pleasure-temper- ately. We may reap its riches. with out covetousness. We may enjoy everything in it, for it comes from the giver of all good gifts. But we must be careful and anxious in seeking with constant prayer and earnest striving that which Is permanent. stable and eternal, looking beyond the present and take infinite pains lest we turn lawful pleasure into excess, which Is sin. Thus above shall we be able by divine grace to realize the fashion of this world passeth away. Thus | alone shall we be able, as members of | Christ, as children of God. as interiors of the Kingdom of heaven, to use this | world as not abusing it, and so the prayer of our Savior answered that WI | nav he kept from the evil

ST. INIGO'S ITEMS.

From Our Regular Correspondent.
Considerable areas of wheat have
been sowed.
Laborers are scarce and farmers
sons, ten and twelve years old, have
TO do the work of adults.
Carpenters are kept busily engag-
cd, and blacksmiths work early and
late six days of the week.
Ours Is Metal Age. and not i'm
dulging exageration we may say
that, without knowledge OF metals,
particularly iron. man would have
remained a barbarian. Ii should be
borne in mind that the method where
by iron becomes utilized in the arts,
generally requires chemical knowl-
edge and high progress in science.
Trees are full of apples and pears.
The latter are large, juicy and well
favored. They retail at 60 cents a
buShel.
How sad Well, the devil has
some localities of the district by the
throat, notably Tall Pine and it's en-
viroments. Seven stores, all licens-
ed to sell whiskeyl A dismal woe
seems TO be pronounced on the place.
At an early day the citizens OF st.
Inigo's district will have the pleasure
of communicating with the inhabi-
tants of Leonardtown and Baltimore
by telephone. The holes are balm q
dug for the setting of poles, and wire
and arms are convenient TO be put
in place.
We notice that Mr.. Charles Ricards
after returning the planning and
moulding machine replevied it.
Sheriff Freeman served the writ OF
