might put the money saved into some

Or If no one church school might
be left with the work, especially in
primary education, might not all with

with the public school authorities In

their own failure to cooperate were
not in part responsible for it.-Bdito-

PAPAL COINS.
FORM METALLIC HISTORY OF
PoPEs SINCE EIGHTH
CENTURY.

The first Pope to issue coins was
Adrian l., who assembled the Papal
throne in I'LL The coins of Europe
were then largely modelled on those
of the Byzantine Empire, whose gold
byZants were in general use. The
coin of Pope Adrian was of this class,
says the Catholic Record of London,
Ont. 1t showed full face portrait,
presumably of ST. Peter on the OBJ
verse, surrounded by the inscription:
"Hadrianus P. p" and the Cross on
the reverse, very much after the style
of the Byzantine pieces.
Many of the earlier Papal coins
bear the inscription of the reigning
Pope, and a representation of either
st. Peter or st. Paul. 1t was not until
later that the portrait of the reigning
Pope became characteristic of these
coins.
A gold scudo of julius II. may here
be mentioned, the design of which is
credited to Francis, celebrated
metal worker of the time, which
shows finely engraved portrait Vol
the Pope with the inscription: Julius
Pontifex Maximus.' .
A coin of Alexander VII, attributed
to Paola, has on the reverse the
crossed keys and crown. This In said
to be the first Papal coin to bear this
device.

executed.
st. Johns University: An enthusi.

Sc R NJ D n SU BJ ECTS
PRESCRIBED FOR THE SUNDAYS
OF MARCH IN THE ARCHDIO-
CESE OF ST. PAUL.

The following series of sermons on
Contrition will form the basis of the
discourses at Mass in all the churches
of the Archdiocese on three Sundays
of the month of March.
1. Qualities of True contrition.
(a) Contrition must be interior
deep down in the heart. Mere lip
sorrow may deceive the visible min
lister of the Sacrament: it does not
deceive Cod Without heartfelt sor-
row, dissolution may be obtained from
the visible minister of the Sacrament:
but before God it is to no purpose.
(b) Contrition must be superna-
tural. The word supernatural means
what is above nature, above the mere
world of men, what appertains to the
higher world of Gods immediate life.
Sorrow for sin leading to reconcilia-
ton with God, must have within ii
elements derived from God, linking it
with God-elements that are super
natural.
(c) To be supernatural, contrition
must be animated with the life of God,
with Divine grace. This grace is
given freely by God to those who de
sire it, who seek for it in prayer and
supplication.
To be supernatural, contrition must
be founded on motives, or reasons,
that spring from the supernatural
world, that uplift us towards that
world. Earthly motives of sorrow-
the shame of sin before men, the pun.
ishments of human laws, temporal
losses resulting from sin, are in them.
selves licit, and may help in detach-
ing us from sin: but they do not
bring us into communion with the
supernatural world; they produce in
us no supernatural effects; they fail
to draw upon us Gods mercy and
forgiveness.
Supernatural motives Of sorrow fol
sin are-the love due to God, &C
grossly outraged by sin-the fear Of
divine justice-the loss of Heaven, the
punishment of He'll, consequences Of
sin unforgiven.
Contrition is made supernatural by
