always make it certain that this permanent
majority of italian cardinals Will always
name an Italian for Pope; and thus this Star
Chamber gang Of Italians-dressed in the
chemise and the petticoat-will always rule
the world in spiritual affairs and also rule
'the State in purely worldly affairs"
DO you think that President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan ought to be monkeying with
such buzz-saw as thats
Don't we know what popery has always
done, where it got the upper hand?
Don't we know that the Shimmycrats are
making desperate efforts to snake America

MORE AUDIENCES FOR AMERICAN SAILORS
During the past week two audiences were
granted by the Pope to sailors belonging to the
American fleet and to q band OF Argentine
pilgrims headed by the Archbishop of Buenos
Ayres.
In other words, your sailors are classed
with the Romanist pilgrims from Argen-
tina headed by the Archbilly- goat of Buenos
Ayres.
Your Secretary Of the Navy is Josephine
Daenls, from the Huguenot regions of North
Carolina.
(The Huguenots had to flee from the Old
World to keep the Pope from killing then.)
Josephine D. is sending your sailors over
to Rome to kiss the Pope's foot,
Wouldn't you like to see the sight?
0, what an inspiring spectacle it must be
The American sailors, towed by their chap
lains who make Christs out of waters. and in
company with "a band Of Argentine pilgrims,
headed by the Archbilly goat of Buenos
Ayres!"
La! What fine thing it is to elect a
Democratic President!
And to have a Secretary Of State like sour
mash Bryant
And a Secretary of the Navy, like Jose
phine Daniels!

The POpe's Slave Pens, Called

The first time I learned anything about the
Houses of the Good Shepherd | most faVora-
bly, impressed. The information came in the
shape Of illustrated literature. The design of
the Homes said to be to lead hayward girls
back again into the ways Of virtue and respecta-
bility, and to teach them useful domestic arts,
thus fitting them for wifehood domestic serv-
ice. There pictures showing the neatly
dressed girls walking in beautiful garden,
apparently in pleasant conversation with the
blaok-robed Sisters. Whilst not approving of the
religious garb nor Of the doctrine that it symbo-
lzed, yet that seemed but a small matter as
compared with the practical good that could be
accomplished in such Homes In front of the
building was statue of the Saviour holding in
his arms little lamb, appropriate symbol of the
House of the Good Shepherd. The whole seemed
to revive memories Of the sweetest and tenderest
character of time when my dear mother,
sat her knee, taught to repeat:
''See, Israels gentle Shepherd stands
With all engaging charms.
Hark how he calls the tender lambs
And folds them in his arms
1t has sometimes seemed to me that the mean
est thing the Church of Rome has ever done is
to take the tenderest, sweetest and hottest ter
mnology of tie Christian religion and smear it
with it's unspeakabe filth.

Can you mediate? I asked Pa.
Oh, certingly, sed Pa. Meditating
