DEFENDS THE CATHOLICS.
Cardinal Gibbons Replies to Protestant
Charges Of DisIoyaIty.

Baltimore, Md.-An article will APP
rear in the March number of the
North American Review from Cardinal
Gibbons in which the cardinal replies
catcgorically to charges made by
Lutheran and Baptist ministers af-
fecting the loyalty of members of the
Catholic communion.
Cardinal Gibbons begins by saying
that fifteen millions of Catholics live
their lives in our land with undis-
turbed belief in the perfect harmony
existing between their religion and
tAcir duties as American citizens.
1T never occurs to their minds to
question the truth of a belief which
Gil their experience confirms. Love
OF religion and love of country burn
together in their hearts. They love
their church as the divine spiritual
society set up by Jesus Christ.
through which they are brought into
closer communion with God, learn
his revealed truth and his holy law,
receive the help they need to lead
Christian lives and are inspired with
the hope OF eternal happiness"

A Nickel Cigar.

A good "kid" story from the Hutch
inson Gazette: 1t was the boss birth
day. The Office boy knew it, because
he had heard the boss wife say so.
The Office boy worshiped the boss
and had bought him a birthday pres
ent. Often he had heard the boss say
that the only presents he liked were
cigars, providing they were ten-cent
cigars, and he was worried for fear
the boss might not like his present.
The boss came in and threw open
his desk. Lying there he saw a small
parcel. He opened 1t and found that
1t contained cigar. He looked at it
closely. 1t was nickel cigar.
Huh" said the boss, disgustedly.
Then he noticed that there was writ
ing on the paper. He read:
"Hapy birthday, dident buy ten
center cause only had a nickle."
The boss bit the end off the cigar,
reached in his pocket and drew out
match and lighted the weed. He
puffed critically a minute.
Il didn't know they made such
good cigars for a nickel" he said.-
