COMING HOME.

Letters are coming now every

have been away at work most
of the winter, say ing they will

gratifying news is that many Of

Mexico ''for good" are among
those who are returning, and a
few are coming bacENyho have
been gone two or three yeare.
They find conditions elsewhere
not even so good as in New
Mexico, and they long for the
freedom of the West, and the
health of the climate. Parties
who have arrived by train dur
ing the past week say that every
time they looked ont of the car
windows on the trip they would
see prairie schooners headed this
way, and sometimes in cara
vans, and these outfits probably
represent not only our old
citizens coming back, but new
corners as we'll Crops Y ere

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. JOHN FRANCIS REGIS.

st. John Francis Regis was born in
Languedoc, A. D. 1897. From his ten
derest years he showed evidence of
uncommon sanctity by his innocence
of life, modesty, and love of prayer.
At the age of eighteen he entered the
Society of Jesus. AS soon as his
studies were over, he gave himself
entirely to the salvation of souls. The
winter he spent in country missions,
principally in mountainous districts;
and in spite of the rigour of the
weather and the ignorance and rough
ness of the inhabitants, he labored
with such success that he gained in
Vulnerable souls to God both from
heresy and from bad life. The sum-
mer he gave to the towns. There his
time was taken up in visiting hos
pitfalls and prisons, in preaching and
instructing, and assisting all who in
any way stood in need of his serv-
ices. In his works of mercy God often
helped him by miracles. He brought
the most desperate sinners back to
God, fearing neither blows nor even
threats of death where there was a
soul to be saved. He was so infamed
with the love of God that he seemed to
breathe, think, speak of that alone,
and he offered up the Holy Sacrifice
with such attention and fervour that
those who assisted at it could not but
feel something of the fire with which
he burned. In November, 1887, the
Saint set out for his second mission
at Marines. His road lay across val
legs filled with snow and over noun
tains frozen and precipitous. In
climbing one of the highest, a bush
to which he was clinging gave way
and he broke his leg in the fall. By
the help of his companion he accom-
plished the remaining six miles, and
then, instead of seeing surgeon, in
sisted on being taken straight to the
confessional. There, after severa
hours, the curate of the parish found
him still seated, and when his leg
was examined the fracture was found
to be miraculously healed. How much
might we do if we could forget oul
own wants in remembering those o.
others, and put our trust in God!
After twelve years of unceasing labor
he rendered his pure and innocent
soul to his Creator at the age of forty
four.

ADVICE TO CATHOLICS.

Don't get into the habit of being
late for Mass. A moment of prepare
ton before Mass may be the means
of opening your soul to many graces.
Don't go to Mass without either a
prayer-book or rosary beads, unless
you wish distraction and not devotion
to occupy your mind.
Don't talk in church without neces-
sity. Talk with God, whom you may
not have visited, in His temple, since
last Sunday; you will have plenty of
time to talk with your neighbor.
Don't criticise the sermon, nor the
manner of preaching. 1t is a message
from God bearing some truth to you.
Heed the instruction and profit by it.;
it has something for you to learn.
Don't leave the church until the
priest has left the sanctuary. Take
moment in which to thank God for
the graces of the Holy Mass.

UNPREJUDIcED TRIBUTE TO THE
CATHOLIC CHURCH.

The Booklover's Magazine pays this
unprecedented and sterling tribute to
the Catholic Church It is a common
sense view often expressed by Ameri-
cans. 1t remains that these same SEN
timents shall be expressed in terms of
the heart and conscience:
''The growth of the Roman Catholic
Church in the United States is one of
the most striking facts of history
and she has also gained the popular
goodwill, or at least a favorable pre-
possession, and she has conquered
respect. At present those who look
upon her most favorably are that
large and influential class of men
whose antecedents were Protestants,
but whose actual connection with a
Protestant church is little more than
nominal. They know enough of Pro-
testantism to make them alive to it's
faults, and they know just enough of
Catholicism to make them admire it's
excellence. These men care little for
the theological and ecclesiastical ques.
tons which separate Rome and Pro,
testantism. They are legislators, city
officials, railroad men, editors, man
ayers of large business interests
Whenever their dealings bring them in
contact with a Roman Catholic institu
ton, they find an organization which
knows it's own mind, knows what il
wants, has some one who can speak
for it officially and finally. They car
see that it maintains discipline among
it's own members, and seems at the
same time to retain their affection
They are attracted, in word, by
it's practical, business-like efficiency
and are repealed by the opposite quail
tiles in Professionalism"

SIGN OF THE CROSS ON BREAD.

In many of the older sections of the
world there prevails the beautiful Gus
tom of making the sign of the cross on
bread, when the father or mother is
slicing it. Thereby it is expressively
indicated that the crucified Son of
God has blessed the bread, inasmuch
as He, in the form of bread, gives
Himself to us for our souls nourish-
ment. At the same time there is i'm
piled thereby the prayer that God,
for the sake of His Son who abides
with us under the form of bread,
should permit the mundane bread to
enure to our body's and souls well
fare.
Even among the ancient Pagans
long before the birth of Christ, it was
customary to make two cuts; on each
of the round loaves of bread the form
of the sign of the cross appeared
The purpose of these cuts was that
the bread might easily be broken into
four portions. The ancients did not
in fact, ever slice their bread, but
broke it with their hands, as is
the general custom in the east even
today. Thus the ancient Pagans
without knowing it, had already
prophetically pointed out that the
bread would at length be hallowed or
the cross by the self-sacrificing Re
deemer of the world.

The Lesson of the Day

Mrs. Morrison rustled into Bernard
Chester's largest and most fashionably
equipped dry goods store, trying to
appear at ease and unconscious of the
gaze of those who passed, as befitted
a true aristocrat and woman of the
world. It was a new sensation to be
noticed among the crowd of shoppers,
to be glanced at with curiosity and
interest.
Though she had recently put behind
her, banishing even the distasteful
memory of it, a life in which toll and
economy played the leading parts, she
knew her present sphere, for she had
lived it's fairylike existence in
imagination while humble household
duties kept her hands employed long
before the real world had opened it's
doors and said to her hungering,
willing spirit, Come"
