Good Resolutions.

Good resolutions are never a short
cut to good works. Carefully thought
cut plans and earnestly made resolves
are valuable only as they bring into
rlain sight and duties that We ought
to be doing. They are worse than
useless when we let them take the
place of duty doing, as we so often
do.
A man will, on his way from his
house to his Office at the beginning
of the day, make such good plans and
resolves for that day by the time he
reaches his Office he has unconscious.
ly let himself think that the hardest
part of the work is already done, and
then the real doing of it evaporates in
the glow of the plan making.
1t is better for most people to spend
more Of their time on what needs ia
be done than on planning when and
how they will do it. An unplanned
duty done is better than duty thai
always remains planned for.

only a few of the examples of men

the seeker after truth. The flaws

The Coming consIstory.

The present composition of the Sa-
cred College of Cardinals makes it
probable that the Pope will create
more Italian Cardinals at an early
date. It is almost certain that if Plus
K died before doing so the foreign
Cardinals would represent more than
one.third of the total In a conclave
for the election of his successor.
. The Sacred College has fifty-one
members today, thirty-one Italians and
twenty foreigners. OF this total seven
are octogenarians and nineteen are
between 20 and 80. In case of con.
clave it would be impossible for more
than forty Cardinals at the outside to
assemble at the Vatican.
Oreglia, the death of the Sacred Col
lege, has been bedridden for two
years; Di Petro, Capece1atro, Segna
and Gruscha are likewise bedridden;
Netto and Puzyna are apopletic;
Coullie and Samassa are so aged and
infirm that they cannot travel, and
Moran of Australia, and Arcoverde of
Rio Janeiro, reside so far from Rome
that they are not likely to leach here
in time for a conclave.

Whenever non-C Catholics are driven

The case of the woman of Samaria

there is any Scriptural sanction for
remarriage. On the contrary there
is the severest condemnation that
words can frame against remarriage
where there is divorce. Our Lord

asked for the water" Of which He
had spoken, to go and call her hus.

mo husband" He replied that she
had spoken truly, for she had had
five husbands, and the person with
whom she was then living was not
her husband. Could any Judgment be
clearer than this? Those who are d.

marriage with other favorites of fan.

January %, 1906.

The men who celebrated the 4OOth

and it has more than once been al

guard have undergone corresponding
modification, its principal duty being
at present to act as guard of honor

The Pope's Swiss Guards.

For the last four centuries the
papal bodyguard has been recruited
in Switzerland. This little band of
warriors was founded by Pope julius
II, who, feeling the need of more
reliable military protection than was
then obtained in Italy, summoned
his friend Peter Won Hertenstein.
canon of Lucerne Catheral, to Rome
in February, 1906, to consult with him
as to the feasibility of securing the
permanent services of about 200 care
fully selected Swiss mercenaries. In
September of the same year Canon
Won Herstenstein appeared before the
federal assembly at Zurich as a papal
envoy to request that band of 200
skilled men at arms OF Swiss nation.
atty be selected for the protection
of the Pope and of the papal palace.
The request was complied with a
month later. In December a young
patrician, Caspar Won Silinen, who
had been selected as captain of the
band, accompanied by several other
officers and few men, left Lucerne
for Rome. These were followed bv
the rank and file few weeks later
and the new guard entered the Eter-
nal City by the Porta del Popolo on
