took up the question of establishing a Catholic

part during your present meeting to second the
proposal of the Austrian Congress by some prac-
teal movement in this natter
"The time seems ripe and we have waited, l fear,
all too long to begin. | am sure if it could be
brought properly each one would be willing to
tax himself as far as necessary to hasten its full
filment. What shame it is that we must read,
day by day. the most hidious calumnes against our
religion, the most glazing insults to our Holy Fa-
Their, and the most cowardy justification of the
robber bands who drive our religious people from
their homes, confiscate their property, and CON
vert it to their own selfish purposes.
Have you not read in the daily papers recently
the most fulsome praise of the new Portuguese
government. And have you not read IN the same
issue an account of the expulsion of the friars,
whose only faults seems to have been that they
were the custodians of the Church'5 property and
too meek and gentle to meet violence with vioencel
This. indeed, makes the Catholic blush and am
sure those who have the right spirit would be willing
to give 1.-THE of what they possess to see this state
of affairs remeded in the only way III which it
can be remedied-by the founding OF a Catholic
international Associated Press.
.And now, my dear brethren, let me conclude, as

ton At no time in the history of the Church has
necessity of unity been more apparent. The Church
has had her trails in the past. but dark clouds
questionably hang over the future.
''Never. perhaps, before has Gods Kingdom been
so savagely besieged; never before has there been
such a powerful, obstinate, far-reaching unity of
effort on the part of his enemines against Christ's
vicar; never before have such crafty, nay even
diabolical schemes been employed against His
Church. As in the past she has emerged I'M
scathed from the storm, 50 by the token of the
promise she will emerge unscathed even at the end
Yet We her children, have duty to perform. Each
one of us is indebted to her for the only life worth
living, the life of faith, hope and charity Her
children have caused her in the past Their
lack of loyalty and enthusiasm when her heart
Overlooking with love toward them, has been the
crown of thorns which centuries have woven upon
her brow 1t is our duty not only to give our best
efforts to the Church as individuals, but seeing
that mighty individual effort is lost before the
laundering roll of the multitude. we should stand
shoulder to shoulder in union with our brethren
and march to the defense of our religion with the
spirit of soldiers the battlefield whenever Moth

question will be solved and Catholic harmony will

think it is, l wish you God speed, and may your
hopes be realized to the fullest and may you see
the day when our Catholic faith will be the rally

''There is one other question which, if [ do not
appear over-zealous, | would like to place before
you for consideration. 1t is that of a Catholic
press and especially a Catholic Associated Press

at seems to me that we Catholics have such a
herculean work before US, in great measure, have
overlooked the tremendous power of this fourth
estate. The press, as you are well aware, Is the

for the daily paper, and it is reead with avidity

it can be safely said that the vast majority of
people have no literature other than their daily
paper. 1t is the only prompt. direct and intel
lgible way to reach rile vast multitude of cti
zens And what is particularly distressing is that
the great majority of these papers deal out to
unwilling public generally without malice morn
ing by morning and evening by evening, the most
poisonous caumnies against our faith. If this be
allowed to continue we hope, reasonably, that
the venom will not finally have its effect? Some

Ones Pet Phrase.

What Is your pet phrase and what you go
ing to do about eliminating it?
Do not look superior every one has some ex-
preston which is used with and without reason.
She may not be conscious of it, but those who
. listen to her are.
There may be no harm in the phrase which dofh-
mates your conversation, but it grows monotonous
AXE that horrid little form you bet" No nice
girl would it, say you! Well, some nice girls
do-though you could not make them believe it.
Perhaps it started in fun, mimic of someone else,
but the ugly little phrase cings.
Sure, is scarcely more refined but much more
common. If you ever catch yourself using it watch
how it dominates your conversation. You will be
surprised and bit mortified
A talk at the telephone is test for developing
the pet expression. How do you answer when be,
ing talked to- IF you have not time consider get
some listener to count how many times you repeat
any one phrase.
Perhaps it is Eyes" with rising infection said
and again until your hearers are halY-
maddened; maybe it is a silly "now what do you
think of that!'
One girl said mercy thirty-fve times in FIVE
minutes. 1t meant nothing; there was no startling
shocking news from the other end it merely
habit
Some girls have the habit of repeating, Il never
in my life; others adopt the current slang, "fne

lengths
One girl was called n. 0. Y. /. for months be-
fore she discovered the reason of her nickname

1t pays you to break yourself of pet express

because it bores hearers.

New Lincoln Story.

Professor James T. McCleary of Mankota,
Mimi, who for fourteen years represented dis
trict of his state in Congress, only brought to
town day or two ago a report on political cOndi-
tions in Minnesota but also told new Lincoln
story, says the New DIRK Sun.
"A friend of mine out west, who is now about
So years old, told that when boy he attended
with his father one of the famous Lincoln-Douglas
debates in Illinois" said Professor McCeary. My
friends father was Lincoln man, but the place
in which this particular debate took place was
Douglas stronghold.
Douglas spoke first, and he was frequently in
terrupted by vociferous applause. The cheering
and the handclappng at the end lasted four five
minutes When Lincoln was introduced the crowd
broke out into cheers for Douglas and kept it up
for several minutes. Lincoln meanwhile waited
patiently.
when at length the enthusiasm had subsidized,
Lincoln extended his long right arm for silence.
When he had partly got this he said in an impress
sive tone: What orator Judge Douglas is!
This unexpected tribute to their friend set the
audience wild with enthusiasm. When this APP
pause had run its course Lincoln extending his
hand again this time obtained silence more easily.
What fine presence Judge Douglas has"
exclaimed the speaker, earnestly. Again tumultu-
Gus applause followed the tribute. More and more
easily the tall gaunt lawyer got silence he went
on with admiring ordinations:
