face of mankind and poisons our
souls. Satan uses the world as his
great instrument of temptation. All
the senses of men are open to tempta-
ton, the eyes, the ears, and all other
senses. 1t is not the seeing, but the
looking; not the hearing, but the lis
tening which destroys our souls. ST.
Paul bids us to take the whole armour
or panoply of God. He bids us cover
ourselves with the breastplate of JUS
tice, with the helmet of salvation, and
to take the shield of faith and the
sword of the spirit, that you may be
able to quench the fiery darts of the
wicked one" that is, you need armour
to cover you from head to foot to
Withstand the attacks of the enemy
of your salvation.
Temptation is no sin. Adam was
tempted in his innocence. Our
Divine Lord was tempted. The great
est saints have been tempted all their
lives. Sin is in the consent of the
will. Resistance of the will makes
the difference between sin and tempta-
ton. Satan has no control over our
will. God Himself never forces the
will of man, or it would cease to be
free will. No temptation can become
sin again our own will; if we consent
our will becomes Satan's will. 1t is
so, because we give it to him. The
Word of God says: with all dill.
gence keep thy heart, for out of it
issues life; and if life, also death. .
If we withstand the evil, life comes
out of it; if we consent, death comes
out of it. Not only is temptation no
sin, but it may be made the means
of clarifying God and sanctifying our
own souls. Every time we resist
temptation we make an act of love of
God, which will be more precious than
if it were said on our knees. The
time of temptation, if only we resist,
is not the time in which we lose
grace and purity of heart, but in which
we grow in sanctifcation. No one
need be discouraged because tempted.
There is no man who is not tempted.
Everyone has his besetting sin and
his besetting temptation. st. James
says: Blessed is the man who en-
dureth temptation, for he shall re-
ceive crown as his reward"
In the Proverbs it is said: my
son, when thou contest to serve the
Lord, stand in justice and in fear, and
prepare thy soul for temptation" We
must all stand in fear; but when the
temptation comes, il you resist it your
crown will be certain, and those most
tempted, if faithful, will be most re
warded. When we say this petition
we bind ourselves not to go into
temptation or the occasions of tempta-
ton. The one great rule to keep our
selves safe in temptation is to observe
the rule that God gave to Abraham
walk before Me, and be perfect.
To walk in the constant fear and
presence of God. II you live in the
presence of God you will always keep
your minds pure. God has promised
not to let you be tempted above your
strength, and to be with you in temp.
tation, and if faithful He will bruise
Satan under your feet.

SATISFACTION FOR SIN.

The priest gives us a penance after
confession that we may satisfy God
for the temporal punishment due to
sin. Satisfaction is defined by theo-
logians as .the acceptance and volun-i
tary endurance of the temporal punish
ment by which, through the merits of
Christ, the sinner pays his debt of
punishment" Hence a two-fold salts
faction ; is demanded of us, one for
the guilt and the other for the pun
ishment. The satisfaction for the
guilt, or penance, which God requires
for its remission, is contrition and con-
fession. BY punishment we under
stand a hardship or an inconvenience
contrary to our will or inclinations,
which is inflicted on us for the pur-
pose of Furnishing sin. There is
two-fold punishment for sin, the
eternal and the temporal; therefore,
there must be also a two-fold salts
faction for the punishment, the one
for the eternal punishment and the
other for the temporal punishment.
The sacramento satisfaction concerns
only the temporal punishment, as the
eternal punishment is RENTED by the
priestly absolution. Satisfaction
therefore, as here considered is the
voluntary punishment of ones self,
offered to God for ones sins, that He
may forgive their temporal punish
ment. 1t is clear that this satisfac-
ton can never of itself adequately
compensate for the injury done All
that we are and all we have belong to
God, and we are therefore unable to
satisfy God, Whom we have offended,
unless He deigns to accept the little
we can do in satisfaction for our sins
and the punishment due to them. BY
sin we offend Gods friendship and
| justice. To recover his friendship
we cannot satisfy God, because salts
| faction requires the acceptance of God
and this presupposes His friendship.
That the satisfaction may be in some
manner equal to the injury done, it
! is necessary that, since the injury
/ is of infinite malice, so also satisfac-
ton should proceed from a higher
| principle, from man as member of
Christ and a child of God through
sanctifying grace. Satisfaction, there
fore, is not offered to God nor is
required by God from man for the
guilt, because God justified us freely,
and without any merits of our own.
restores to US His friendship. Along
with the infusion of sanctifying grace,
God might condone all temporal pun
ishment, but God does not always do
so. Acting on the principle that God
does not always remit all temporal
punishment, the Church orders that
the priest in confession, not only can,
but must give penance to the peni-
tent. The practice of the Church from
the very beginning has invariably
been never to absolye a penitent With

THE INCARNATION.

The first chapter of the Gospel of
st. Luke contains a narration of the
event of Our Lords Incarnation.
And in the sixth month, the angel
Gabriel was sent from God into city
of Galilee, called Nazareth, to a virgin
espoused to man whose name was
Joseph, of the house of David; and
the virgins name was Mary. And the
angel being come in said unto her:
Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with
thee; blessed, art thou among women
Who, having heard, was troubled at
his saying, and thought within her
self what manner of salutation this
should be. And the angel said to her:
Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found
grace with God. Behold thou shalt
conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring
forth son; and thou shall call his
name, Jesus And Mary
said to the angel: How shalt this
be done, because know not man?'
And the angel answering, said to her:
The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee,
overshadow thee. And therefore the
Holy which shall be born of thee
shall be called the Son of God.
And Mary said: Behold the
handmade of the Lord; be it done unto
me according to thy word!'"
At the moment these last words
were uttered by the Virgin, says the
Brooklyn Tablet, the Son of God be
came man and the Divine Nature took
upon itself human nature, in the womb
of the blessed amongst women. The
| Incarnation of the Second Person OF
the Blessed Trinity was then a fact;
the two natures were united in one
Person. Although there was an init
mate union between the nature OF
God and the nature of man, it was
not the Godhead, the divine essence
but God, divine Person, who became
man. 1t was the Second Person OF
the Trinity who became incarnate
though all the divine Persons had a
share in the Incarnation, as all the
Persons of the Trinity have their
share in every work which God does
outside Himself.
BY the Incarnation God became true
God and true man. There was not the
slightest change in His divine nature
He remained God, as He always was
and always viii be. He became man
took upon Himself our human nature
and began to be One who was single
Person with a twofold nature, human
and divine.
The two natures in Christ, despite
their intimate union. are quite distinct
each one perfect in itself BY the In.
carnation God did not sacrifice any
thing of His divine dignity. His
power, goodness, love and knowledge
we're in no way impaired or diminish
ed. His Divinity was in no degree
altered. His Personality was the
same, absolutely Identical with what
it had been before the virgin Mary

HOW GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS.

Every prayer is answered if it is
prayer, says the Stella Maris". Our
Divine Lord teaches us how to pray
in the "Our Father" He gives us the
list of petitions, the kind of things
to pray for. Thus, therefore" He
says, shall you pray" and when we
pray thus we always receive. If we
are foolish enough to pray for SER
pent, He will not give us a serpent
but good and daily bread, but He will
give us something.
God, as it were, likes to hide His
giving, and He likes us to do the
same. 1t is only when we look back
upon the years that have gone that
we see God really did give us what
we prayed for, but so silently, so
naturally, that we didn't notice it,
and so, of course, forgot to thank
Him.
Some time ago a on-Catholic lady,
on visit to England, went to view
Westminster Cathedral She seated
herself near the beautiful statue of
Our Lady in her chapel, and pres
emily saw two poor little ragged chill
dren, aged about years and years,
who came in, hand in hand. They
knelt down at the shrine before the
Pitiful Mother, and prayed-prayed
earnestly. Doubtless they we're ask
ing her to ''show herself mother,
for their hearts were in their petit
tions. The Australian lady watched
them go out together, and an inspira-
ton came to her. She went after the
children and asked them if they were
asking for something special: Eyes"
was the reply, Mother sent us to ask
the Blessed Virgin to give us shoes.
Father is out of work and can't buy
us any," the Australian visitor open
ed her purse and gave them what she
had. The little faces were radiant.
The Mother of God had heard the
appeal.
The worldly might say, Very
pretty, but, of course, quite natural"
There's where the worldly make a
mistake. That is one of Gods favor
tie ways of answering prayers. From
all eternity He saw that those little
mites would pray to Our Lady in
Westminster Cathedral, and He saw
the Australian lady, and this was all
arranged quite naturally and quite
systematically, one part fitting in
with the other. We do not know
whether this dear non Catholic lady
became a Catholic. We are quite
sure, however, that the Blessed Vir-
gin will give her shoes and better
things than shoes for her beautiful
charity. Blessed be God.

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. ETHELDREDA, ABREss.

Born and brought up in the fear OF
God-her mother and three sisters are
numbered among the Saints Ethel
dreda had but one aim in life, to de-
vote herself to His service in the re-
ligious state. Her parents, however,
had other views for her, .and in spite
of her tears and prayers she was
compelled to become the wife of Ton
brecht, a tributary. of the Mercian
king. She lived with him as virgin
for three years, and at his death re-
tired to the isle of Ely. that she
might apply herself wholly to heavenly
things. This happiness was but short
lived; for Egfrid, the powerful king
of Northumbria, pressed. his suit upon
her with such eagerness that she was
forced into a second marriage. Her
life at. his court was that of an ascetic
rather than queen: she. lived with
him not as a wife, but as sister,
and observing a scrupulous regularity
of discipline, devoted her time to
works of love and mercy. After
twelve years she retired with her hus
bands consent to Coldingham Abbey
which was under the rule of st. Ebba
and received the veil from the hands
of st. Wilfred. In 672 she returned
to Ely, and founded there a double
monastery. The nunnery she gov
erned herself, and was by her example
living rule of perfection to her Sis
tiers. Some time after her death in
679, her body was found incorrupt
and st. Bede records many miracles
worked by her relics.
AS soon as Etheldreda had left the
court of her husband he repented Of
having consented to her departure
and followed her, meaning to bring
her back by force. She took refuge
on a headland on the coast near Cold
ingham; and here miracle took
place, for the waters forced for them
selves a passage round the hill, bar
ring the further. advance of Egfrid
The Saint remained in this island
refuge for seven days, till the king
recognizing the divine will, agreed to
leave her in peace. God, Who by q
miracle confirmed the Saints vocation
will not fail us if, with a single heart
we elect for Him.

out proper penance. The very
words. of Christ in instituting this
Sacrament seem to indicate lit. He
gives thea Apostles power not only to
retain the sins of the impenitent, but
also to bind down the penitents to
certain works of penance. In the
power of, forgiving sin and it's eternal
punishment must also be included the
minor power of imposing penance
as an atonement for the temporal
punishment due. to sin. This dogma
of Catholic belief is assafled by the
combined forces of Professionalism.
They all claim that with the remis
sion of sin there is no further punish
ment due. The intention of reformers
was, in order to find disciples among
the masses, to cater to the inclina-
tions of man, and therefore to do away
with the hardship or Inconvenience
which sacramenta1 satisfaction always
brings with it, Fo prove that they are
mistaken is to show that generally
there remains a temporal punishment
even after the sin is forgiven, and
that penitential works must atone for
it. 34

FREQUENT AND DAILY CON-
.MUNIoN. Il

The fact that a person may unhap-
PLY fall occasionally into mortal sin,
is not a reason for refusing him the
favor of frequent Communion, provid-
ed that before approaching the Holy
Table, he receives pardon for his sin
in good confession, says the Sentinel
of the Blessed Sacrament.
Perhaps there was doubt as. to
whether one sinned or not Now what
is a doubt? Doubt may be defined as
"the suspending of the judgment about
something apprehended by the mind
1t may be positive or negative, The
positive doubt exists when there is an
apparent equality of reasons on either
side. The negative doubts exists
when the mind suspends Judgment for
want of reasons on one side or on
the other. For example, suppose one
has been subjected to very violent
temptation which. however, he has re-
sisted. But the violence and the vile
ness of the temptation have SO. i'm
pressed him that he feels uneasy and
fears to have offended God AS he
has really no reason for that, it is a
negative doubt.
But should he be troubled by bad
thoughts on which he has dwelt for d
while, and taken little pleasure in
them, but which he has banished from
his mind on realizing the gravity OF
the sin he would commit by dwelling
on them, there may be doubt about
the nature of sin committed. There
are reasons for fear because the per
son has dwelt on those thoughts; on
the other hand, there are reasons fol
excusing such person from mortal
sin, since after realizing the gravity
of the thought, he has banished ii
After weighing those reasons, even il
the doubt regarding the gravity Of
| the sin he may have committed, per
severes, he may decide in his own
favor, and go to Holy Communion
This is called taking the benefit Of
the doubt"
