The Jesuits could hardly have
chosen lovelier or more congenial
spot for their retreat, or one more
remote in spirit and aspect from the
affairs of this country. The whole
geography OF the region commemor-
ates the saints of the Church. The
next estuary of the Potomac is st.
Clements Bay.
A dozen miles across the river is
the birthplace of Washington in
Westmoreland county, Va, region
where one of the commonest family
names is that Of the first President.
At quaint little old Leonardstown,
the county seat of st. Mary's, is a
Catholic school. The very negroes
who fish the waters and work the
farms are Catholics, as were their
slave ancestors for generations.
That green and airy cape where
the Jesuits find retreat from time to
time is almost thirty miles from the
nearest railway station on either
shore of the Chesapeake Bay. When
the chief buildings of a neighboring
county town were burned some
years ago Baltimore was four days
in learning the news:
The fathers 60 to and from the re-
treat by means ofa atri-weekly steam
boat, which is normally thirty hours
in making the voyage between Bal
timore and Washington. The near
est wharf is two miles by water and
a good deal more by land up st.
Inigo's Greek.
The steamer makes the wharf with
so much aeliberation that visitors
to the vacatl0a house from Washing
ton often leave the boat at st. Georges s
Island, some miles up the Potomac,
walk across the island, and sail
thence by small boats to their desti-
nation. Eight or ten hours later the
steamer, after having visited mean
while half dozen wharves up and
down the tortuous and beautiful
tributaries Of the Potomac on the
Virginia side. reaches st. Inigo's
Greek and enables travellers from
the retreat to make Baltimore in 10
or IL hours.

AS seen from the water, the re-
treat suggests almost anything but
q scene of ascetic rites. The vast
square yellow house, four stories
high and nobly proportioned, looks,
with its green blinds and many
windows, like q well kept seaside
hotel of a substantially unusual with
such structures.
At nearer approach il is found to
beagreat. comfortable house, severe
ly simple in its appointments, with
a pleasant garden ut hand and pre-
vailing atmosphere of neatness.
Here the members OF the Order come
for longer or shorter stays, some on
ly until the next boat can take them
up the Potomac 70 Washington, or
down to the mouth of the river. and
thence to Baltimore.
Nothing is commoner aboard the
boats that link this quiet and remote
region with the outside world than
the vision of Jesuit father unosten-
tatiously occupied with his devo-
tions, or keenly eyeing the land that
was once the Catholic stronghold in
the English-speaking New World.
Those black coated figures are just
such as have been familiar 10 these
shores and their inhabitants for two
and three-quarters centuries, aud
the fathers OF today are as much at
home in old St. Mary'sas were those
who came with the Calverts, when
they exchanged the inhospitable
climate of Newfoundland for this
land OF warmth and richness.
The beauty and fertility of the
land must fill the visiting Catholic
with regret at the thought of what
the Calverts lost for the Church.
The bluff shores Of st. Inigo's are
clad in rich woos4and or lined with

wHERE CANALS ABOUND.

One can imagine the average
English or American mother trying to
bring up family in a house surround
ed by. canals
She would never have moments
peace until the children were in bed
But then, the mere sight of a canal
to the English-speaking child suggests
the delights of a sudden and unex-
pected bath.
An Enghishman inquired OF a
Dutchwoman: Does a Dutch child
ever by any chance fall into a canal?"
YES" she replied, eases have been
known
Don't you do anything for it?" con-
tinued the questioner.
ooh, yes" she answered I'VE haul

But what mean is" explained the
Englishman, don't you do anything to
prevent them falling IN? To save
them from falling in again?''

Thought She Couldn't Live.

Moravia, N. Y, June 5.-Mr. Benja-
min Wilson, highly respected resident
OF this place, came very near losing
his wife and now that she is cured and
restored to good health his gratitude
knows no bounds. He says:
My wife has suffered everything
with Sugar Diabetes. She has been
sick four years. She doctored with
two good doctors but kept growing
worse. The doctors said she could
not live. She failed from 200 pounds
down to 100 pounds This was her
weight when she began to use Dodds
Kidney Pills, and now she weighs 100.

she used to have rheumatism SO
bad that it would raise great bumps
all over her body and this is all gone
too.
'Dodd's Kidney Pills are God-send
to those who suffer as my wife did.
They are all that saved her. We can't
praise them enough"

TELL EVERYBODY.

A distinguished London oculist once
took a poor blind man, sitting on the
curbstone and restored his sight.
Overwhelmed with joy and graft
tude, the man exlaimed: Doctor I
haven't farthing in the world with
which to pay you" Said the doctor:
There is just one thing 1 want you
% do to repay me; it is very simple. Tell
it. Tell everybody whom you meet
that you were blind; that you see, and
who healed you"
The restored man willingly made
this return, and in a little while the
ocuifst had more patients than he
could attend to. Suppose that we all
repaid Christ in this way?

HER WEAKNESS GOMEZ

Mrs. Murphy Tells Her FeIlow-sufYerers
How She Got Rid of Serious Troubles
by Simple Home Treatment.
"I had been bothered for several
years." said Mrs. Murphy, ssby stomach
disorder, and finally I became very weak
and nervous. Flashes of heat would
pass over me, and I would feel as if I
was sinking down. At such times I
could not do any household work, but
would have to lie down, and afterwards
would have very trying nervous spells. /"
Didn't you have a doctor ?" she was
asked.
+" Yes, consulted several doctors but
my health did not improve. One day a
friend asked me why I did not try DIR.
Williams Pink Pills. She assured me
that they had proved of the greatest ben
eft in the case of her daughter. In fact,
she praised them SO enthusiastically that
my husband got me a box"
''And what was the result?''
Before / had taken half of the first
box my condition was greatly improved.
The quickness with which they reached
and relieved all my troubles was really
surprising. After had used only three
boxes I had no more heat-daShes or
weak spells. Thanks to them, have
become a well woman

DIR. Williams Pink Pills, the remedy
which she found SO satisfactory, furnish
