A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. CATHERINE OF ALEXANDRIA.

:. r 4.
Catherine was noble virgin of
Alexandria. Before her baptism, as
the acts relate, she saw in vision the
Blessed Virgin ask her son to receive
her among His servants, but the
Divine Infant turned away. After
baptism Catherine saw the same
vision, when Jesus Christ received her
with great affection, and espoused her
before the court of heaven 1t is in
any case certain that she had early
consecrated herself to God, and that
when the impious tyrant, Maximin
H.. came to Alexandria, and the other
noble ladies yielded to his will, Cath
crime alone stood firm. Fascinated by
her wisdom, beauty, and wealth, he
vehemently urged his suit At last
in his rage and disappointment he
ordered her to be stripped and
scourged. According to Baronius, she
fed to the Arabian mountains, where
the soldiers overlook her, and after
many torments put her to death. Her
body was laid in Mount Sinai, and a
beautiful legend relates how Cath
crime had prayed that no man might
see or touch her body after death
and that angels bore it to the grave
A noble monastery rose over the
shrine, and Christian warriors going
to the crusades placed their hope Of
victory in the patronage of the in
vincible virgin. The marriage of St
Catherine, her martyrdom with the
wheel broken at her feet, and he1
entombment by the angels have been
the chosen subjects of Christian art
while the miracles wrought by he1
prayers have confirmed the devotion
of the faithful. Among the devout
clients of st. Catherine, no one per
haps has drunk more deeply of hel
j spirit or profited more by her inter
i cession than the heroic maid of Or
leans, Joan of Arc. It was a vision
4 of st. Catherine which first inspired
! the simple peasant-girl to undertake
the deliverance of her people. The
white standard, with the feur-de-li:
and the holy names, Jesus, Maria,
embroidered thereon, which led hel
followers to victory, was made on {
model which the Saint had shown
her; and the sword which she wor.
at her side, but which was never
stained with blood, was discovered il
the Church of st. Catherine of Fier
bois, in the exact spot that the Sam
had revealed. Above all, her spotles.

in shameful death proved her true
daughter of the glorious virgil

The Message Of the Bells

Eunice Dalton gloried in her ances-
try. She reveled in the consciousness
that her forefathers were Puritans of
a pronounced type; that her family
had always kept aloof from the taints
of the common people and was able
to amass fortune becoming it's herit-
age. Possibly her pride of beauty and
love of pleasure might have scandal
lied her more austere ancestors, but
she suffered no dismay on their &C
count. In religious matters she
showed no interest, except in occa-
sional denunciations of the Catholic
Church, whose beliefs she termed
"superstitions" and whose ceremonies
were "relics of barbarous times With
ambitions ever centered on self she
came to maturity beautiful and
supreme egotist
She cared for few people, and her
warmest affections were shared by
Frederic Payne and Margaret Powers.
The former, her affianced husband,
was brilliant young man, with a
charming personality; the latter, a
devoted companion since the death of
the girls mother, was a good and
faithful servant whose constancy had
defined her friend in need and in
deed.
Margaret Powers was remarkable
woman. Though some years past the
prime of life, her figure was still
erect; her hair, silvered in the hard
ships of her maidenhood, shone like
a crown on a worthy brow, while her
face, burrowed by care, bore cheer
full expression. But more attractive
were her wondrous, soft blue eyes,
which radiated mu1titudes of love in a
glance. A devoutly religious nature
accompanied her lovable disposition
and her upright and dutiful life
marked her as the personification OF
Irish Catholicity and womanhood.

THE CRIB.

1t should never be forgotten that
the Church is indebted to st. Fran
els of Assist for the beautiful Christ
mas devotion of the Crib. 1t was he
who first practised it, and obtained
special sanction for it's establishment
from Pope Honorious III. And thus
it has come about that through each
succeeding century countless thou
sands of faithful worshippers have
knelt, in vast cathedrals or humble
sanctuaries, before the representa-
ton of the poor Stable at Bethlehem,
feeling their whole being moved to a
keener realization OF the. mercy and
goodness of Him who deigned to be-
come a little Child for us.
The poetry, the beauty contained in
even the humblest attempt to provide
a Crib in memory of the one that held
the Holy Child can never be meas
ured by any gauge of the earth,
earthly" What sweet and delicate
fancies it raises in the simple heart
of an innocent child! What feelings
of hope and resignation does it not
raise in the souls of the forsaken and
the detected, the earth-weary and the
miserable! And, oh, what feelings of
remorse has the sight OF it's touching
simplicity the power to stir within
the not quite hardened heart of an
erring son or father-a wanderer from
the peace of good mothers tender
influence, wife's anxious solicitude,
child's, tear-wet, wondering face!
Who shall tell of what the quiet walls
of st. Francis could repeat of the
tears it has seen, the half-stifed sobs
it has heard on the many Christmas
Ewes that have come and gone! The
church's ever-open door leads to the
Crib, and the Crib to the Heart of
Jesus.

EPlSTLE: Therefore Judge
not before the time till the Lord
come; who both will bring to
light the hidden things of dark
ness, and will make manifest the
counsels of the hearts: and then
shall every man have praise
from God.
GOSPEL: The word of the
Lord came to John the son OF
Zachary in the desert. And he
came into all the country about
the Jordan, preaching the hap
tism of penance for the renis-
sion of sins; as 1t 10 written in
the book OF the sayings of Isaias

we the way of the Lord, make

THE GUARDIAN ANGEL.

It Is a consoling doctrine of our
holy religion that God has given to
each one of us an angel to watch over
him and protect him from harm.
From the cradle to the grave he is
ever invisibly present by our side,
profoundly interested in all that con-
Germs our eternal welfare. The Royal
Prophet expressed it perfectly when
he said: "He hath given his angels
charge over thee to protect thee in
all thy ways" A faithful friend, a
wise counsellor and a valiant de-
fender, he never deserts us, but true
to his divine appointment keeps close
realize, the fact the more will we ap-
preciate the dignity of our characters
and the value of our immortal souls.
The more eager also will we be to
comfort ourselves with that upright
ness and purity of heart which be-
come so sublime companionship.
Let us cultivate him early and always.
Let us diligently foster an intimate
personal union with him in thought,
affection and imitation. Let us salute
him the first thing in the morning,
and bid him adieu the last thing at
night. Let us, as it were, lock arms
with him inseparab1y as we walk to-
gether down the pathway of the years
which go to make up the brief span of
our sojourn upon earth. Let us avoid
all sin as being particularly offensive
and painful to him. Let us tell him
our griefs and joys and make him the
depository Of our deepest and hottest
condolences. Let us call upon him
ardently especially when all else
seems to have deserted us. He will
certainly answer our prayer and we
shall grow strong again and be COM
forted in the radiance ami joy of his
angelic presence

wounds painted. The fungus will
continue to live and fruit on dead
wood, therefore, great care should
be taken to remove and burn all the
diseased parts, so that all the spores
Of the fungus will be destroyed
When trees are seriously affected it
is much better to cut them down
and burn the affected parts. The
fungus does not penetrate the wood
which makes it possible to remove
the bark from the trunks and larger
branches and thus save the wood for
farm use. The bark should be care
fully collected and burned.
The spread of this disease through
out the State of Delaware presents a
serious economic problem to our
people. If the disease is allowed to
spread unchecked it will result in a
very great loss which can only be
regained only after the lapse Of a
long period of time. However, by
prompt action and cooperation of
the people the ravages Of the disease
can be checked and probably elimi-
mated. All citizens are urged to re.
port outbreaks or suspected out
breaks Of this disease to Prof. Wesley
Webb, Secretary of the State Board
of Agriculture, Dover, Delaware, or

BARK DISEASE Of
CHESTNUT TREES

Probably the most destructive dis
ease of forest trees now known in
North America is the bark disease
of the chestnut. Through the kind
ness of the press the writer called
the attention OF the public to the
presence of this pest in Delaware two
years ago and also exhibited speci-
men of diseased chestnut at the New
Castle Fair. Al that time the dis
ease was known to occur at but three
points in Delaware, viz the vicini-
ties OF Wilmington, Newark and Fell
ton. Recent reports and inquiries
indicate that it now occurs in ten or
twelve places, most of which are in
the northern New Castle County and
in KentCounty from Dover to FELTON,.
The disease is due to a fungus
known by the scientific name of
DiapOrthe pdrdsjtica and was first de-
scribed and reported in 1904 by DR..
Murrill of the New York Botanical
Garden. 1t is supposed to have been
introduced into this country on the
japanese chestnut, a variety which
appears to be very resistant to the
disease but is not nearly so valuable
a forest tree as our native American
chestnut. The disease first appeared
on Long Island and has practically |
destroyed all the chestnut in the Vi
cinity of New York City. The lower
point Of New York State, the south /
western corner Of Connecticut, all of
Long Island, the greater part of New
Jersey, and the eastern tier of coun-
ties of Pennsylvania are now thor
oughly infested. 1t has also been re-
ported from other points in New
York and Connecticut, in Massachu-
sets, Rhode Island, Western Penn
sylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia.
1t is estimated that the loss in and
about New York City is now between
five and ten million dollars and that
the total loss in the infected area
will aggregate fully one hundred
million dollars. The last legislature
of the State of Pennsylvania made
large appropriation for fighting this
disease, which if allowed to go un-
checked will cost that Common
wealth fully fifty million dollars.
The first appearance of the disease
is usually in the tops of the trees
and is easily recognized by the dying
of the leaves and branches. A more !
careful examination will show t
canker on the branch beyond which t
the parts are dead or dying. This
canker is at first small but gradually {
enlarges in all directions until it 7
completely girdles the branch and i
causes death of the part beyond the G
point of attack. The canker is at t
first black, becomes gradually sunken v
below the general surface Of the bark, a
then roughed and eventually covered
with small orange-colored papillae. 0
This latter condition is most notice p
able in rainy weather. These pap n
lilac contain the spores or fruit which il
when dry are carried by the wind to II
other parts of this same and neigh t
boring trees. They are frequently
sarried for very long distances. A
