have heard will be your greatest con-
ISOLATION. Every Mass will go with
you to judgment and plead for par
don. At every Mass you can diminish
the temporal punishment due to your
sins, more or less, according to your
fervor.
Assisting devoutly at Mass you rem
der to the Sacred Humanity of our
Lord the greatest homage. He supplies
for many of our negligences and omis.
sions. He forgives you all your un-
known sins which you never con-
fessed.
You afford the souls in purgatory
the greatest possible relief.
One Mass heard during your life
will be of more benefit to you than
many heard for you after your death.
You are preserved from many dan
gers and misfortunes which would
otherwise have befallen you. You
shorten your purgatory- by every
Mass.
Every Mass wins for you higher
degree of glory in heaven.
You receive the priests blessing,
which our Lord ratifies in heaven.
You kneel amidst a multitude of
holy angels, who are present at the
adorable sacrifice, with reverential
awe.
You are blessed in your temporal
goods and affairs. When we hear
Mass and offer the Holy Sacrifice in
honor Of any particular saint or angel,
thanking God for favors He bestowed
on him, we afford him great degree
of honor, Joy and happiness, and draw
his special love and protection on us.
Every time we assist at Mass we
should, besides our other intentions,
offer it in honor of the saint of the
day.

POLICY OR NECESSITY.


Sir Henry Howard has been sent on
diplomatic message from England.
The English press announces that he
was charged with special; messages
to the Holy Father. The attitude to-
ward the appointment is expressed in
the belief on the part of the allied
nations that the appointment was an
attempt on the part of Great Britain
to unite herself more closely with the
Catholic population Of the empire.
This explanation comes from a London
paper, which is taken to mean that
the appointment was a diplomatic
movement brought about by necessity
The influence of England over Italy
is plainly shown in the attitude of
Italy toward the triple alliance. BY
it Italy was bound to Germany and
Austria. This analysis need not ap-
pear strange in view of the fact that
in our own country, even after liberty
at the cost of war, and independence
gained through the shedding of blood
and subsequent conflicts, when their
action threatened our existence as a
nation, Tory organizations which have
more or less influence among certain
classes of citizens, flourish In this
country. Making virtue out of neces-
sity is more suitable explanation
than any fancied interest in the Catho-
lies or the Vatican. It is a matter OF
expediency. What is being done for
the Catholics of England is widely
heralded through the press, but the
Catholics of Ireland must submit to
the imposition of new Viceroy with
no other qualification than that of
being an expert polo player. The new
Viceroy is Lord Wimborne, whose fam
lily name is notorious for having in
troduced the "holy donkey" scandal
to England. This fiction relates the
worship of a donkey by Italians in a
certain district of Italy. So Sir Hen.
ry Howard goes to the Vatican and
the polo player goes to Ireland. All
this Is done In the interest of Ca
tholicity. Is the deception interest or
insult? Facts are stubborn things.

Just what attitude Italy may take
toward the appointment of minister
to the Holy See by England is an open
question. There is no doubt but this
appointment is looked upon as al ad-
vance in diplomatic circles at the Vati-
can. Naturally the Italian govern
ment would be jealous Of any advance
on the part of the Vatican. This ex-
tension of diplomatic influence
strengthens the power and influence
Of the Papacy. In England the ap-
pointment of minister to the Vati
can was the cause of a great out
burst of indignation on the part of
the Protestant alliance, while in Ire.
land the feeling was that the appoint
ment was simply a trick on the part
of England to increase the influence
of the allies. In any event, the posi-.
ton Of the new arrival at the Vati-
can ia not fully determined.
