THE EsKlMos OF THE NORTH.

We had a pleasant visit the other
day, says Register-Extension, from
one who has been some time among
the Eskimo of Cape Fullerton, the
police station some 500 miles north of
Port Churchill and Hudson Bay, and
are glad to learn that there is great
opportunity for the missionary priest
at present to convert this whole pagan
nation to the Catholic faith. Up till
now the great Indian missionaries of
the North have claimed that it was
practically impossible to bring the
tenets of Catholicity to the Eskimos
because they were completely dominat-
ed by their. medicine men, and resisted
at all points the advance of priest
In fact Father Lecorre informed us
when here that he had spent winter
with them in one of their settlements
on the Arctic coast line without being
able to accomplish any practical re-
suits. From what our latest informant
tells us, the influence of the Medicine
Man is fast disappearing. These people
are simple enough in their manners,
and are not inclined to be warlike, and
are not constituting any more new sor-
cerers in their places. Unfortunately
the presence of the American whaler
has but too frequently demonstrated
what has been asserted of many other
places, namely, that the example of
civilization means but moral degrade
tion among the native people. The 'fire-
water" curse has made it necessary
for the Canadian Government to estab-
lish police posts through that whole
Arctic region. The Hudson Bay coast
is in the new Prefecture of Mrg Char
lebois, recently consecrated, and it is
expected that he will make an attempt
to supply Fullerton with a missionary
priest to affect the conversion and civ
ilization of these poor people When
here, couple of months ago, on his
way to France, Bishop Breynat, who
is in charge of the Vicariate of Nc
Kenzie, declared to us his intention of
making an attempt personally to Chris
tianize the Eskimos of the Arctic
Circle, of whom Miss Cameron wrote
such fiction in one of her latest books.
We had thought that the missionary
zeal of the great Oblate Order had
really no new fields to conquer in
Canada, but from this it will appear
that there is still considerable to be
done, and since these poor people are
possessed of immortal souls, and every
soul is equal in the sight of God, it
will be a great work to bring them
within the saving influence of Gods
Church.

THE CHURCH IN SOUTH AFRICA

Basutoland, a mountainous district
of South Africa, was first part of the
Vicariate Apostolic of Natal and later
of the Vicariate of Kimberly 1t was
made an Independent Prefecture in
1894 Roma, the first Catholic mission
in Basutoland, was founded by the
Oblates in 1862. The first church was
built in the same year. The second mis-
sion was founded some five years later
about six miles from Roma. Since then
several new missions have been es-
tablished in different parts of the
territory. The Prefecture possesses at
present 10 churches, chapels and sta
tions, converts and 9 schools. The
missionary work is carried on by the
Oblates, assisted by the Sisters of the
Holy Family. The total number of OBJ
late Fathers in Basutoland is at pres
ent 10; lay brothers, 6; European Sis
tiers, "a; native Sisters, II; total num-
Der of Catholics, about $500; catech-
umens, 700; children attending school,

ST am out and I intend to stay out,
Mr. Golden. I don't blame you for TAX

hunt for easy people, but you can't
do it again. I'm done with patent
medicines and complaining. I'd rather
die in the harness than lie about the
house wearing out my family talking
about complaints I never had till I
let you persuade me I had them"
"Why, Mr.. Saxton," said the agent,
pleasantly. II can see from your talk
that your liver is out of order. Now

"Is that the young man that sold
you the stuff that helped you so
much?" said Aunt Susanna from the
door behind him. "Why didn't you
ask him in? I'd like to meet him"
There was something in her tone
that reminded Mr.. Saxton of the by
gone days, and turning in a hurry,
he caught the flicker of smile in her
kind, keen eyes.
Aunt Susanna, are you at your old
tricks?" he cried, springing up. II

how you bandaged my foot the day I

I'm glad you came, anyway, for you've
saved this whole family lot of mis-
cry. The only thing that will induce
me to forgive you is the promise of
a cherry pie and a lot of doughnuts
tomorrow"
BLESS your heart! I don't want to
be forgiven, sonny! I'll make the pie
and doughnuts this very evening, if
you'll only promise never to disgrace
your bringing up any more. thought
all my boys had been taught never to

my heart to see my big, brave boy
a whining coward. Forgive me, dear,
but it was the truth. I know it will
never happen again, so my heart is
mended And now let's help eat
Emma's good supper, and be friends
forever and ever"
"And to think I dreaded to have

away the happy tears. "Auntie, T can
