SHRINE OF THE SACRED HEART.

Gods intention of reserving the devotion to
the Sacred Heart for period when charity
should have grown cold.
The holy see received three successive re-
quests before 1t gave its appreciation to the
feast of the Sacred Heart. The first natu-
rally was made by the Order of the Visi-
tation, and was strongly Endorsed by
queen. Queen Beatrice in 1897 sent petit
ton to Pope Innocent XII. Scarcely seven
years had elapsed since the death of Bless
ed Margaret, to whom the revelation had
been made, and the church did not care to
pronounce so soon on devotion of such re-
cent origin. Nevertheless, the naScent de-
votion grew apace. From the converts of
the Visitation it spread to many towns in
France. The Visitation sisters had a
pamphlet printed at DIXON containing an
office of the Sacred Heart, with Htany
and an act of reparation.
Movement In This Country.
AS the Jesuit priests had propagated the
faith in every other cline, so also did they
take the Initiative in this country. Rev. J.
F. MCGEE, pastor of the Shrine of the
Sacred Heart Church in Mount Pleasant,
began the movement in this city more than
five years ago. When he received the per-
mission of Cardinal Gibbons to start
church in Mount Pleasant it was with this
avowed object in view. He therefore ira
versed the country to some extent, and in
1901 he laid the corner stone of a church
that he hopes to be the forerunner of
magnificent national shrine of the Sacred
Heart.

How to Help the Leader.

Quote from Chrysostom. Bind myself
to thy brother. Those who are bound to-
gether in love bear all burdens lightly.
Bind thyself to him and him to thee. Both
are in thy power; for whomsoever will.
I may easily make my friend.

Hints to the leader-Make 1t a point to
try and get out all your members, espe-
cially those who do not work well together
or who are at swords points with one an
other, If there are such. Impress the
thought that Christ's kingdom looks to
out with one another there can be no
healthy life. Call for personal experiences
of helpfulness and forgiveness. Just be-
fore prayer ask all who are willing to go
to any disaffected friend and ask pardon
and try to bring about reconciliation to
arise. Ask members to pray for this spirit
of lopty-sufferillg love. Call for suggestions
of how we may help one another in our
Christian life, and write the list on the
blackboard. Speak of church membership
as one way CT helping and emphasize the
necessity of a heart right toward all others
who are members with US Of Jesus Christ.
God never meant us to be separated

Spirits that share His Spirit He has mated,

WEATHER SIGNALS NOT
YET FULLY UNDERSTOOD
Some Pointers That Will Aid Public
in Understanding Flags Shown
on Argus Building.

Frequent queries regarding the
weather flags which in Rock Island
are displayed on The Argus building,
indicate that there are many people
who do not fully understand their
meaning. There are two classes of
flags. the weather flags and the tenn
perature flags. There are four wealth
er flags, all of them square. The white
one indicates clear weather; the blue
one rainy weather: the half blue and
half white indicates local showers or
uncertain weather. and the white one
with the black center is the cold-wave
flag. Ii indicates that a fall of 20 de-
grees or more may be expected.
The triangular flag is the tempera
ture flag and if one keeps in mind that
it follows the mercury in the thermo
meter and goes up Tor above the other
fag) when the temperature is TO rise
and goes down tor below the other
fiag} when the temperature is expect
ed TO fall. there is no trouble in read
ing the flags. If the triangular flag is
not shown, there is to be no marked
change in the temperature

MANIFESTO WHICH MAKES THE Gar A fGUREHEAD

| believe that in the exercise of the
executive power the following princi-
pies should be embodied:
First-Straightfor and sin.
cerity in the confirmation of civil lib
erty and in providing guarantees for
it's maintenance.
Second-A tendency in the direction
of the abolition of exclusive laws.
Third-The coordination and the ac-
tiVity of all organs of government.
Fourth - Avoidance of repressive
measures in respect of proceedings
which do not openly menace society or
the state.
Fifth-Resistance to acts which man.
ifestIy threaten society or the state,
such resistance being based upon law
and moral unity.
Confidence must be placed in the
political tact of Russian society. II is
impossible that society should desire
condition OF anarchy which would
threaten, in addition to all the horrors
Of civil strife, the dismemberment OF
the empire.
We appeal to all faithful sons OF
Russia to remember their duty to-
wards their fatheriand, to aid in ter
minat.ng these Unprecedented troubles
and to apply their forces, in coopera.
ton with US, to the restoration of calm,
and peace upon our natal soil.

Second-Without suspending the al
ready ordered elections to the state
douma, to invite to participation in the
fore the conVocation of the douma will
permit, those classes of the population
now completely deprived of electoral
rights, leaving the ultimate develop
ment of the principle of the electoral
right in general to the newly estab-
lished legislative order of things.
Third-to establish as an unchange-
able rule that no law shall be enforced
without the approval of the state dou-
ma and that it shalt be possible for the
elected of the people to exercise real
participation in the supervision of the
legality Of the acts Of the authorities
appointed by US.
The government should abstain from
any interference with elections TO the
douma and keep in view my sincere
desire for the realization OF my ukase
of Dec. IS, 1904. II must maintain the
prestige of the dcuma and have conf
dence in it's Iabors. and in no way re-
sist its decisions so long as they are
not inconsistent with Russia's historic
greatness
II is necessary to respect the ideals
OF the great majority Of society and
not the echoes CT noisy groups and fac
tions, too often unstable. IL IS especi-
ally important to secure the reform OF
the council of the empire on an cleo
toraI principle.

ST. Petersburg, Oct. 31.-We. Nicho-
las the Second, by the grace of God
emperor and autocrat of all the Rus
sias, grand duke of Finland, etc, de-
clare to all our faithful subjects that
the troubles and agitation in our CAPT.
tails and numerous other places fill our
heart with excessive pain and sorrow.
The happiness of the Russian SOW
ereiqn is indissoIubiy bound up with
the happiness of our people, and the
sorrow of our people is the sorrow Of
the sovereign.
From the present disorders may arise
great national disruption. They men
ace the integrity and unity of our en-
pire.
The supreme duty imposed upon US
by our sovereign office requires US to
efface ourself and to use all the force
and reason at our command to hasten
in securing the unity and coordination
Of the power of the central government
and to assure the success of measures
for pacification in all circles of public
life. which are essential to the well be
ing of our people.
We, therefore, direct our government
to carry out our infiexible will in the
following manner:
First-To extend to the population
the innmutabie foundations of civic
liberty, based on the real inViolability
OF person, freedom of conscience
speech, union and association.
