are to be found. Travellers Shudder, as they
gaze upon the devilish contrivances to make
disbelievers in the Pope suffer. The ingenuity
Of Satan was exhausted in the preparation of
these hideous tools of religious fanaticism.
When Napoleon's troops occupied Madrid
detachment was sent out to capture the In
quistors and the building of the Inquisition,
not far from the City. The French soldiers
were SO Infatuated when they saw the hellish
furniture Of the torture room that they
seized upon some of the Spanish Inquisitors,
and put them to death with their own instru-
ments of torture.
In Rome, where the Popes have generally
dwelt, the Inquisition was in full blast for
hundreds of years Thousands of Protestants
and other heretics persisted in it's torture
chamber, o0lich aoas IN the Pope's oaoaa palace
The evidences are there on the silent walls
to this day.
Read what Charles Dickens wrote about
Avignon, when he was travelling in Italy, in
1874:
I am gazing round me- with the horror that
the place inspires, when Goblin clutches me
by the wrist, and lays, not her skinny finger
but the handle Of a key, upon her lip She
invites me, with a jest, to follow her. I do
so. She leads me out into room adjoining
tracing roof, open at the top, to the bright
day. [ ask her what it is. She folds her
arms, leers hideously and stares. I ask again,
She glances round, to see that all the little
company are there; sits down upon a mound
Of stones; throws up her arms, and yells out
like fend, LA Sale de la Question!"
The Chamber of Torture! And the roof
was made of that shape to stife the victims
cries! Oh Goblin, Goblin, let us think of this
awhile in silence. Peace Goblin Sit with
your short arms crossed on your short legs
upon that heap of stones, for only five min
utes, and then flame out again.
Minutes! Seconds are not marked upon the
Palace clock, when, with her eyes flashing fire,
Goblin Is up, In the middle Of the chamber, de-
scr1blng, with her sunburnt arms, wheel Of
heavy blows. Thus it ran round cries Goblin.
Mash mash, mash! An endless routine of
heavy hammers Mash, mash, NASH upon
the sufferers limbs. See the stone trough
says Goblin. For the water torture! Gurgle
swill, bloat, burst for the Redeemer's honour!
Suck the bloody rag, deep down into your un-
believing body, Hereto, at every breath you
draw! And when the executioner plucks it
out, reeking with the smaller mysteries of
Gods own Image, know us for his chosen ser
wants, true believers in the Sermon on the
Mount, elect disciples of Him who never did a
miracle but to heal who never struck man
with palsy, blindness deafness, dumbness
madness, any one affiction of mankind; and
never stretched His blessed hand out, but to
give relief and ease!
See cries Goblin. There the furnace was
There they made the irons red-hot Those
holes supported the sharp stake, on which the
tortured persons hung poised: dangling with
their whole weight from the roof. "But;"
and Goblin whispers this; 'Monsieur has

Rec. Thomas f. Price, Nazareth, ". @.
Reverend and Dear SIR: [ inclose a post
card that came into my possession and I
would be pleased if you would answer either
In the Question Box or privately, just as you
prefer, and tell us If such place ever existed
and was used for the purpose this card claims
1t was.
The card gives the picture of a great tower
and has on it the following words:
sHangmans Tower, Nuremberg, Germany
-Nuremburg, the second largest city in Ba-
yaria, is considered the oldest city in Ger
many. In general, it still retains its Gothic
architecture; most of the private residences
dating from the 10th century It is known
to children as Toy Land because the manu-
featuring of dolls and all kinds of toys is
larger than in any city in the world. The
tower In the foreground Of this picture was
used by earlier Catholic priests as Torture
Chamber for Disbelievers and Protestants"
Yours sincerely,
A7oSa0er: "This is simply survival of the
old falsehood about the Catholic church tor
turing heretics. In former days both Protes-
tants and Catholics uniting church and state
held those Of an opposing religion to be
enemies of the state and treated them accord
ingly. Amongst our Protestants the tales of
Catholic persecution were held up in the ut
most horror when they themselves prosecuted
Catholics much more horribly. The whole
spirit Of bitter pre- udice which was largely
accountable Cor horrors on both sides has
happily away.
"It hat the Catholic church ever
persecut> u allowed her priests to torture
people who were not Catholics and the pub
fishers of this post card ought to be severely
dealt with for misrepresentation and keeping
alive bitterness which both Protestants and
Catholics have long since repudiated."
The last paragraph of the above contains
one of the most astounding falsehoods that
ever came to my notice
AS the Protestant Magazine points out, the
statement is in direct conflict with that of
another ROmanlst editor, whose paper is
recognized as trustworthy exponent of the
ROmanist faith. Phelan, the priest of long
standing, declares:
''The Church has prosecuted. Only tyro
in church history will deny that = We
have always defended the persecution of the
Huguenots and the Spanish Inquisition-
g When she thinks it good to use physical
force, she will use 1.-THE Western Watch
mem (R0naan Catho2ic), Dee, "a, 1908
What will the editor of Truth say to the
above?
Phelan is right of course The Romanist
Bishops oath requires him to persocute The
Romanist Cardinals oath requires him to
prosecute The Jesuit's oath requires him to
persecute And Truth is the only periodical
that ever denied that the ROmanists have
always prosecuted where they had the power
At Avignon, where the Popes resided for
long while, the torture chamber for heretics
was located in the papaz palace. The smoke
begrimed walls yet bear horrible testimony

That was not only deploraOle Du'
most horrible accident in GreenVllNe
on Saturday afternoon when an auto
mobile ran down a little boy On the
street and crushed out his brains.
The tendency with all automobile
drivers is to reckless speeding, espe-
cially when a piece of good road IS
available. 1t frequently happens, TOO,
that boys and men as we'll begin
driving cars before they are sufn-
GENTLY familiar with the. machine to
keep itSunder control.
Their is necessity, not so mucn 1or
a more stringent law, but for a more
rigid enforcement of the law now on
tho hooks governing the speed OF these
machines. There is scarcely a town
or city in the State but has some sort
of speed ordinance, and it is also true
that these ordinances are violated eV-
cry day.
The time to inaugurate a closer sup
ervision of automobiles is now, as the
Greenville News says, and nothing can
be gained by delay This supervision
of reckless driving should not only
apply to the roads and streets OF the
cities and incorporated towns, but to
the rural districts as we'll.
Nearly every paper that you pick up
carries an account of some automo-
bile accident, and it usually results
from inexperience in handling the car,
reckless driving, or carelessness. The
wonder is that the Indifference, or at
least the apparent Indifference Of the
majority of those who own automo-

SANTA CLAUS.

In another column Of this issue OF
The Herald and News we publish
commun' cation from the Rev w. B.
Aull, of Fairfax, in which he tells the
children he does not believe in Santa
Claus. Who ever heard of such
thing before? Mr.. Aull has simply
forgotten, when surely he should re-
member. Let him bark back to the
DAYS of his childhu let him return
in reminiscence to the days around the
old home before came to him the
struggles of life; let him recall the
Joys of his anticipation of the Christ
mas morn, and the stocking that hung,
well-filled, above the old fireplace,
and We are certain he will acknoWl-
edge that it is only case Of failure
of memory on his part.
There is something more in life than
the mere living of it, and there is
something more in the Bible than
mere rules of conduct to which the
learned theologians sometimes want
to hold US down.
In an age which is, at best, ultra
commercial, any effort is to be deplor-
ed which would drive out from among
us any of the beautiful sentiment yet
remaining. Let the children look
forward to the coming of Santa Claus,
and let their elders enter into the
spirit of the season with them, and
help them enjoy to the fullest all the
pleasures it holds in store. Christ
mas is the children's. season. The
years glide swiftly by, and very soon
the children of today will be bearing
the heavy burdens which fall to the
lot of most of U.s. Give them ali the
joys that belong to the golden hours
of childhood. Teach them that Christ
mas is the birthday of the Christ
Child; inetill into their minds the
wonderful story of Bethlehem's man
ger and the angel chorus, but leave
room in their little hearts for old
Santa Claus.
What should concern us at the glad
Christmas season is to try to help
Santa Claus find all the children of
the poor If those who are blessed
with an abundance of this worlds
goods would stop moment and con-
slider how happy they could make some
poor child on Christmas morning by
the gift of a mere pittance, and how
they could thus relieve the grief in
some mothers heart who sees not how
Santa Claus can find her home and
her child's stocking, ,nis would be a
much happier worlds on Christmas
morning.
Santa Claus lives just as surely as
the child-heart holds a place for him.
1t is idle to deny his existence.
Let's help him find the homes OF the
poor.

Senator -Lorimer-Patriot.

Senator Lorimer, in announc-
ing that he would not resign,
has done this country a real
service, and if he clingS to that
intention until the question of
his retention can be decided by a
vote in the Senate, he will have
performed a really great service
There are something over
forty Senators who will vote to
keep Lorimer in his tainted seat.
If Lorimer had resigned, they
would have escaped a record
vote. Now that he has announc-
ed his intention to stick, they
will be brought fairly to the
scratch and forced to go squarely
on record.
And after they vote for Lori
mer they will be retired just as
soon as thhe people can get at
them. This will be a mighty
good thing for the comtry-foI
which Mr.. Lorimer is entitled to
credit.
