Faith and EatherIand.

In considering the history Of Pat
rick, we cannot exclude consideration
Of the country because to christianize
for faith and fatherland are inextrica-
bly, intertwined in the Emerald isle.
And this the more strongly, because
OF the persecution of both. There is
a rift in the clouds, however, and we
already behold the first glimmer of
the promised dawn. Home rule seems
q matter of parliamentary procedure,
when the work Of the brave men
whom we have known for their fidelity
and exacting labor, shall, after thirty
years of strenuous effort, realize the
ambition Of their lives, in an Ireland
redeemed, rehabilitated and olsen
thralled. For this gcoa work, the
Redmonds, billions and thcs~ confreres
deserve we'll of their country and
will be the exemplars of future ages
So, let us rejoice that Ireland borne
down by centuries Of oppression, shall
at last bask in the sunlight of peace;
that her fair daughters shall attune
the harp to notes Of joy, and her
faithful sons forever guard with ieal
GUS care the brighter hopes, the loft
lest ambitions and untarnished fame
Of the isle of destiny

bACKACHE vANISHES
RHEUMATIC PAINS GO
Few Doses of Croxone Ease Stiff,
Sore, Swollen Joints and Mus
cIes, Relieving Backache
and Bladder Disorders.

If you suffer with backache-have
pains in the neck or sides-nervous or
dizzy spells-a few doses OF Croxone
will relieve the congestion and you
will be surprised how quickly all kid
ney, bladder and rheumatic troubles
will disappear.
Croxone promptly relieves these dis.
eases because it really does reach the
real cause. 1t soaks right into the
walls and Innings of the kidneys, cleans
out the stopped-up inactive organs,
neutralizes and dissolves the uric acid
and makes the kidneys sift from the
blood the waste and poisonous matter
that lodge in the joints and muscles
to scratch and irritate and cause rheu-
matism. It sOothes and heals the deli
cate Innings Of the bladder and gives
the kidneys renewed strength SO they
can filter the blood and keep you well.
Croxone is different from all other
remedies. 1t is so prepared that 1t Is
practically impossible to take it with
out results. An original package OF
Croxone costs but trife, and all
druggists are authorized to return the
purchase price If 1t should fail In
single case.--Adv.

During this period of four or five
centuries, from the death Of Patrick

was cultivated and brought to the
highest state Of perfection. Law and
philosophy architecture and sculpture,
music and science dourished and were
encouraged. Irish teachers were in
demand throughout Europe. At the
court OF Charlemagne they were de-
scribed as men incomparably skilled
in human learning"

~ NCE more the round of tho sea-
sons brings the approach Of St.
Patricks day. AS the ancient
Celts, Is centuries ago waited in a
strange unrest, not unmixed with a
hope Of deliverance from the mental
and moral subsection imposed upon
them by the horrible and degrading
practices of Druidism, for the coming
of the conqueror which had been fore
told by their magicians, SO the Irish
people Of the present day are stand
ing expectantly on the threshold Of a
great change, hardening impatiently
to the tumult which delays the ad-
vent Of their nationhood and clogs the
wheels of their recent wonderful prog
ress. The return of her native parli2-
ment, by stilling the political unrest
Of century and satisfying the uncon-
querable aspirations of her people,
will set the seal upon the marvellous
social regeneration which has trans
formed Ireland, in less than 20 years,
from a condition of hopeless apathy
to state of prosperity and conscious
power. A revivifying influence has
passed over the land. Intellectual I'M

formed the ancient Milesian land.
At the coming Of st. Patrick, the
Celts were highly cultivated people,
then, as afterward, noted for their de-
votion to knowledge and their appre-
citation of learned men. Scholars,
poets and historians were held in
veneration. Much progress had been
made in decorative art, in the fash
1oning Of gold and silver ornaments,
and in music. The whole nation was
of an inquirlng turn of mind and it Is
interesting to note that Patrick's first
converts were among the learned men.
Patrick shone particularly as an
organizer. He journeyed necessarily
throughout the land, founding
churches and monasteries, baptizing
converts and consecrating bishops and
priests, accompanied always by his
scribes and architects, his goldsmiths
and carpenters. He adapted his meth

Commission
Tells of Outrages
BY lASfncintsd PrcsS

London. Sept. is, 100 P. M.-The
official press bureau acting for the
Belgian legation in London has made
publicthe second report of the Bel
gian commission appointed to inquire
into alleged German atrocities at Lou
vain and in the district around Ha-
lines.
The commission finds that on enter
ing Louvain the Germans requisi-
toned food and lodging. German
troops took possession of the cash in
all the Louvain banks, burst open
houses and committed other excesses.
The report then cites with consider
able detail two alleged instances in
which women were outraged by Ger
man soldiers and asserts that there
have been instances where women and
children have been stabbed with bayo-
nets and their legs cut off. One case
is cited where n wornman, covered
burning house.
On the burning of Louvain, the re-
port says:
Everything tends to prove that
German regiments, through mistake,
fired at one another. Once the Ger
mans began bombarding the town,
pretending that civilians had fired on
their troops, a suggestion denied by all
witnesses"
To spread the fire in Louvain, the
report charges, Germans entered
houses and threw hand grenades. The
commission contends that from sew
eral places in Belgium the made pop
ulatiQn has been sent to Germany and
forced to work at harvesting as il
they were slaves.
