A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. FIDELIs OF sIGMARINeEN.

Fidelis was born in Sigmaringen in
1877, Of noble parents. In his youth
he frequently approached the Sacra-
ments, visited the sick and the poor,
and spent moreover many hours be-
for the altar. For time he followed
the legal profession, and was remark
able for his advocacy of the poor and
his respectful language towards his
opponents. Finding it difficult to be-
come both a rich lawyer and good
Christian, Fidelis entered the Capu-
chin Order, and embraced life of
austerity and prayer. Hair shirts,
iron-pointed girdles and disciplines
were penances too light for his fer
YOUR, and being filled with a desire
of martyrdom, he rejoiced at being
sent to Switzerland by the newly
founded Congregation Of Propaganda,
and braved every peril to rescue souls
from the heresy of Calvin. When
preaching at Sevis he was fired at
by Calvinist, but the fear of death
could not deter him from proclaiming
Divine truth. After his sermon he
was waylaid by body of Protestants,
who attacked him and tried to force
him to embrace their so-called re-
form. But he said, II came to refute
your errors, not to embrace them;
will never renounce Catholic doc
trine, which is the truth of all ages
and I fear not DEATH" On this they
fell upon him with their poignards
and the first martyr of Propaganda
went to receive his palm.
Before his profession st. Fidelis
wrote this testament: In order tc
conform myself by perfect resignation
to the charity of Jesus Christ, Who
when He was sweating blood and wa

ter in the Garden of Olives, and after
wards dying upon the Cross, resign
ed Himself into the hands of His
Father; so by this my last will offer
my body and soul as living and
eternal sacrifice to the perpetual serv-
ice of the Divine Majesty, and of the
most holy and immaculate Virgin, and
of the Seraphic Father st. Francis.
And as was born poor and naked, SO,
being stripped of all earthly goods,
| abandon myself poor and naked into
the hands of Jesus Christ my Sa-
viour" His perfect fulillment of this
resolve was seen in every act of his
missionary life.

RETURN FROM CALVARY.

Between the hills, love-lighted,
Jerusalem in shadow lies,
Save for one CLEAN above the Cross
One beam from Mary's eyes.
Some hearts, like sin-sad cities,
In fear and darkness lie,
But for the ray of Mary's love,
And Calvary's saving sky.

Customs of the Arab.

On entering a house an Arab
will remove his shoes but not
his hat. He mounts his horse
upon the right side, while his
wife milks the cow upon the left
side. In writing a letter he puts
nearly all the compliments on
the outside. His head must be
wrapped up warm, even in the
summer, while his feet may well
enough go naked in winter.
Every article of merchandise
which is liquid he weighs, but
he measures wheat, barley. and
a few other articles. He reads
and writes from right to left.
He eatf scarcely anything for
breakfast, about as much for
dinner, but after the work-day
is done he sits down to hot
meal swimming in oil or, better
still, oiled butter.
His sons eat with him, but the
females of his house wait till
his lordship has done. He rides
a donkey when travelling, his
wife walking behind. He laughs
at the idea Of walking in the
street, or even vacating his seat
for a woman. If he be an arti-
san, he does work sitting, per-
hays using his feet to hold what
his hands are engaged upon.
