THERE CAN BE BUT ONE TRUE
!, RELIGION.

True religion is revealed God in
His wisdom and justice must have
given to us means by which to dis
tinguish the true religion from the
false ones. Obliging us to service, He
must have defined what that service
is. In other words, justice to us would
lead Him to manifest His will as to
the worship which is pleasing to Him
True religion must have upon it such
marks as will lead us to recognize it,
thus making certain that we are do
ing that which is pleasing to God and
which will lead to eternal salvation,
True religion is not evident of itself
for if it were there would not be sc
many false forms of religion. We
cannot be Indifferent to the practices
of religion without offending God, and
consequently we are bound to fino
the true religion, and God in justice
must have made it known. Our duty
is to examine the reasons which es-
tablish the truth of the true religion,
especially when we have serious
doubts about it. BY the sole light OF
reason we cannot arrive at certain
knowledge of what is necessary for us
to know in order to render to God in
a complete manner the worship which
we owe Him and thus attain the end
for which we are created. To know
the true religion, one must know God
and the relations which exist between
Him and man; it is also to know the
duties which these relations impose
and the. motives which govern duty

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. BoNAvENTURE.

Sanctity and learning raised Bona
venture to the Church's highest hon
ors, and from child he was the COM
panion of saints. Yet at heart he was
ever the poor Franciscan friar, and
practised and taught humility and
modification. st. Francis gave him
his name; for, having miraculously
cured him of mortal sickness, he
prophetically exclaimed of the child,
% bona ventura good luck!' He is
known also as the "Seraphic Doctor"
from the fervor Of divine love which
breathes in his writings. He was the
friend of st. Thomas Aquinas, who
asked him one day whence he drew
his great learning. He replied by
pointing to his crucifix. At another
time st. Thomas found him in ecstacy
while writing the life of st. Francis,
and exclaimed, "Let us leave a Saint
to write of a Saint" They received
the doctors cap together. He was
the guest and adviser of st. Louis,
and the director of ST. Isabella, the
kings sister. At the age of thirty
five he was made General of his Or
der; and only escaped another dignity,
the Archbishopric of York, by dint OF
tears and entreaties. Gregory x. ap-
pointed him Cardinal Bishop of Al
bano, and he sat at that Pontiff' s
right hand, and spoke first at the Coun-
Gil of Lyons. When the Saint heard
of the Pope's resolve to create him a
cardinal he quietly made his escape
from Italy But Gregory sent him a
summons to return to Rome. On
his way he stopped to rest at a con-
vent of his Order near Florence; and
there two Papal messengers, sent to
meet him with the cardinals hat,
found him washing the dishes The
Saint desired them to hang the hat on
bush that was near, as his hands
were dirty, and take walk in the
garden until he had finished what he
was about. Then taking up the hat
with unfeigned sorrow, he Joined the
messengers, and paid them the respect
due to their character. His piety and
eloquence won over the Greeks to
Catholic union, and then his strength
failed. He died while the Council of
Lyons was in session, and was buried
by the assembled Bishops, A. D. 1874.

Az the summer ripened, Miss Ward
grew to love Violet Clayton dearly
and yet one thing about her troubled
the spinster. Friendly as she was
with everyone at Osborne Lodge, she
never spoke OF her past life, her
friends, her relations, her husband, or
his calling, and when the summer
waned, no one knew more about her
than on the May morning when she
first arrived. She was employed In
the mantle department at the Bee
Hive; and her husband had been dead
two years; this remained the extent
Of anyone's information.
1t was in November, the gloomiest
month of all the year, that Miss Ward
solved the mystery OF Mrs. Clayton's
life, and received her confidence at
last The mistress of Osborne Lodge
sat by the window in her own little
snuggery mending the house linen,
when, to her amazement, she saw
Violet walking up the drive. For
Mrs. Clayton to return home from
business at ten o'clock on a Monday
morning was something so unheard OF
that Miss Ward felt certain some dis
aster had befallen her, and she went
into the hall to meet her, making her
take off her wet cloak and come into
the snuggery to try and get warm.
AS she knelt on the hearthrug, with
her thin, white hands stretched out to
the rudy glow, Miss Ward thought
she had never seen her look so young
and chi1dlike
"My dear" the spinster said gently,
Il don't want to seem inquisitive, but
fear from your returning like this
that something is the matter. If you
care to trust me, will keep your
secret faithfully, and try to help you"
II have lost my situation
Only those five words; but they
seemed wrung from her in her an
guish, and Miss Ward looked at her
pitifully. Alas! she had not lived at
South Hill among working men and
women for years without knowing
how hard it was to find fresh niche
when the old one was lost. But she
knew that Violet Clayton was intense
ly proud, and SO she jumped to the
conclusion that she had come to a
rupture with Mrs. Wilson, the head
of the showroom.
Never mind" she said cheerfully,
you have been at the Bee Hive six
months and never had the least re-
proof before. I have heard of other
assistants who could not get on with
Mrs. Wilson, and"
Violet interrupted her.
cit has nothing to do with Mrs.
Wilson," she said quickly, almost de-
family. "She is not pleasant woman
generally, but she has been very kind
to me indeed; she has given me advice
that would have prevented my dis
missal if had taken it."
She began to tremble as one sud
denly stricken with mental fear, and
Miss Ward, putting her arms round
her, lifted her from the rug, making
her sit down in the big armchair
Then, still keeping her hand clasped
tight, the kind woman asked:
Can you tell me your trouble? You
will feel better only just to pour out
your grief"

SIXTH SUNDAY AFTER

EPiSTLE: In that he died
to sin, he died once: but In that
he liveth, he liveth unto God.
So do you also reckon that you
are dead to sin, but alive unto
God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.
GOSPEL: have compassion
on the multitude, for behold
they have now been with me
three days, have nothing to eat;
and If shall send them away
fasting to their home, they will
faint in the way: for some of
them came from afar off.

The Bee Hive was a large estab
nshment In hustling near-to-NeW
york town. 1t had dozens OF diff
terent departments, for it seemed tc
sell everything from Goals to china;
but Violet Clayton had nothing to dc
with anything but the mantle show
room, where she spent her days in
displaying on her graceful shoulders
the cheap, ready-made jackets and
coats which on her had very supe
rlor air to that which they would bear
when worn by their future owners.
Mrs. Clayton was mystery to all
her fellow assistants. She was very
very pretty, she was manifestly poor
but in manners and bearing she was
far above her present position, and
Mrs. Wilson, the head of the depart.
ment, was responsible for the remark
that she looked far more like an &C.
tress' than department store sales.
woman.
She was very silent and very proud
She made friends with nobody, and
she seemed to resent all advances
made to her. She was paid $500
a week, and lived out, wage which,
even though dinner and tea were pro-
vided at the Bee Hive, did not leave
much margin for other expenses.
II she was puzzle at the Bee Hive,
she was a greater one still to Miss
Ward, the kind-hearted proprietress
of Osborne Lodge, a beautiful old
mansion at South Hill, opened year
or two before as boarding house for
people of limited means, and always
full because it's mistress tried to
make it seem like real home to it's
inmates.
Mrs. Clayton had tiny room on
the second floor, looking out onto the
garden with its big velvety lawn, and
the. fine old trees which must have
been planted hundred years. The
tears started to her eyes when she
first saw this beautiful old garden, and
the flowers of every color which
bloomed in it's borders.
II have not seen garden like that
for years; it looks so bright and
homelike," she said wistfully to Miss
Ward.
II hope you will try to feel that
Osborne Lodge is a sort of second
home" answered the kind old maid
Forgive me if wound you, but have
you lost your husband, or does Mr.
Clayton's business force him to live
abroad that you are alone?"
Her eyes grew hard, the tears
froze on them, and there came de
faint flash into their hazel depths.
Il lost my husband two years ago,
she said coldly. please never men
ton him. don't think / could bear
it."
To Miss Wards surprise, everyone
at Osborne Lodge liked Mrs. Clayton
She had fancied she would freeze
most of the boarders by her reserve
and cold manner, but all the girls in
the house fell in love with her at
once; and, as for the men, before she
had been there week, Charles
Meadows, shy young lawyers clerk
who hardly spoke six words to any
one, had confded to her his engage

world and even exhibited to her 9

these, but 1t cannot know them all
and until it knows all it cannot fully
know the truths of religion. Reason
largely reaches its conclusions from
effects to cause; creation and its or
wisdom with which all things in
creation are governed. To know God,
and to know the why and the where
fore of human life, cannot be reached
by any process of human reason
alone; it needs the voice of God to
tell us what to believe of God and
what to believe concerning mans
destiny, and the means by which he
may reach it. Reason alone cannot
know the natural end of moral life
and the means of attaining it, much
less can it know the supernatural.
There is no proportion between the
natural and the supernatural There
is even less than between the rational
and the animal, so that as has been
well said: ut is more impossible for
mans reason to understand super
natural things than it is for the animal
impossible for the human reason of
itself to reach to knowledge of the
true religion because the truth of
religion is in the supernatural order.
How then shall we know true religion
By divine revelation, that is by the
manifestation which God Himself
makes in supernatural manner.
Revelation is the manifestation of a
hidden or an unknown thing, and it
includes the thing revealed as well as
the action of revealing. Natural rev.
citation comes to us by the medium of
creation, as the psalmist tells us, "the
heavens tell the glory of God" But
supernatural revelation comes directly
from God, who not only reveals GER
tain truths Himself, but also reveals
them through the medium of men who
are used to make known His truth,
and Gods greatest revelation was
made through His divine Son, Jesus
Christ st. Paul admirably expresses
these two mediums of revelation when
he says in Hebrews IL, q: God,
who at sundry times and in divers
manners spoke, in times past to the
fathers by the prophets; last of all,
in these days hath spoken to us by
his Son, whom he hath appointed heir
of all things, by whom also he made
the world" By reason alone We may
reach to many natural truths, but
revelation even in regard to these
truths has the advantage of making
them known to all mankind so that
what otherwise might be confined to
scholars, becomes the knowledge OF
the little ones and of those who are
ignorant of the great results of human
reason. Revelation brings them
clearly and easily to our knowledge,
and makes known the truth without
any mixture of error and with GER
tainty that cannot be weakened. AS
our catechism teaches us, divine
revelation is absolutely indispensable
in the order of supernatural truth
God has made us for supernatural
end, that we might participate in di
vine blessings which surpass entirely
all human intelligence, for "eye hath
not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath
it entered into the heart of man, what
things God hath prepared for them
that love Him." The Church teaches
us that divine revelation is necessary
that thus we know what to believe
and what to do, in order that we may
honor God and reach the end fol
which God has created us.
