Mission at St. Mary's Church.

Auer Rev Father Waters had given
clear and precise answers to questions Of
great interest at St. Msry's Church last
night Rev. Father A. J Van lnRelgem
pave his lecture on "The Sacrament of
the Lords Supper" He said: '1s
Christ really, personally present In the
Catholic communion serviceY Yes, de
IL. Some may ask, What do you mean
by the real presence? Do you mean
that the flesh and blood Of Christ 10 the
communion are like other flesh aud
blood? In substance, yes; in mode or
form, no: for az He Is now In heaven,
40 Is He on our affairs, glorified and in
visible. His real presence Ia not The
presence Of His flesh and blood In @
gross manner. II is miraculous and
mysterious presence. The resl body and
Blood Of Christ, together with His soul
and His divinity, physically, truly, sub
atautially present, bnt perfectly sPiritu.
allied, under the appearances OF bread
and wine. The substance Of the bread
and wine Is changed, the appearances
remain. That is rightly termed tran
naturalization. 1t means that when
CHRIST at the last supper pronounced
the words: This Is My body, this Is
NV blood the Bon of God by His ON
nipotent power trsnsubstantiated or
changed the substance Of the bread and
wine into His living flesh; so that no
bren or wine whats ever remained, but
himself-bOdy, blood, soul and divinity
under their appearances. Let Us look
at the evidence Of Scripture for the real
presence. First consider the sixth
chapter of 81. John, 46th verse. These
words must be taken In their literal
sense; or else Christ, out Of pity, Should
have set right those who, on account OF
taking them literally, forsook Him.
Then consider the scene Of the last sup
per as related by the three synoptic gos'
pels of NJ thew, Mark and Luke, using
very nearly the same words. ChrisI
had promised to give His body 10 eat
and h,s blood 10 drink as the sixth
chapter Of John tells Us; now, he takes
bread and giving II to HIS disciples says:
Take We and eat, this is Wy body >
Then taking the chalice gives 1t to them
saying Drink yc all Of this, this Is
Ny blood When Christ said these
slesr words, It was no time TO speak to
His ap stiles in misleading Ggures OF
speech. ALI the twelve understood Hun
literally. 30 did Paul, ! Cor. I. le aud
nj. 1899; go did all the early Christians;
40 did all Christendom till $50 years
ago; so does the vast majority of Chris
tisus 10 the world today. Is It credible
that all we're deIuded? If they we're
wrong, Christ deceived them. But God
forbid Far from deoelvlng as, he gave
us HIS greatest gift-His own body and
blood, soul and oiyiui.y, for the nourish'
ment of our sou"

MISS HENRIETTA HEDGEHOG.

Once upOr. a time there was hedge
hog. She lived under tie hedge
sround very cool and clean stream.
She had nice little house made Of
leaves by a tree. and the hedge was in
front and In the middle of the hedge
was the stream.
one grown child. She had TO 20 off
lot and get things to eat, so she
Etuck her baby full of needles and told
fim 10 roll up in a little BAN when
he heard anybody coming.
One day she went out and stayed so
long to get some leaves TO finish his
nest that the needles grew in her chill
dran and she never could get them
out herself. SO that is the reason
every hedgehog has prickles.
Mr.. Jeremy Fisher was the mother
hedgehoG's sweetheart, and he invited
them TO dinner, and she took her Chill
creH with her. They were sitting out
ON the porch talking. when Mrs
Hedgehog and her children fell asleep
The only way Mr. Jeremy Fisher
could wake them up was to make a
dog bark at them.
Mr.. Jeremy Fisher tried TO cut the
needles out of Mrs. Hedgehog's chill,
dren, but he could not so hedgehogs
have needles until this day.
