lows: ....
"Dismayed by the horrors OF a war
which is bringing ruin to peoples and ma
tons. We turn, o Jesus, to Thy most low
ing heart as to our last hope. o God of
Mercy. with tears we invoke Thee to end
this fearful scourge: o King of Peace,
we humbly implore the peace for which
we long. FROM Thy sacred heart Thou
didst shed forth ovor the world divine
charity, so that discord might end and
love alone might reign among men. Dur
ing Thy life on earth Thy heart beat
with tender compassion for the sorrows
Of men; in this hour. made terrible with
burning hate, with bloodshed and with
slaughter, once more may Thy divine
heart be moved to pity. Pity the count
less mothers in anguish for the fate Of
their sons; pity the numberless families
now bereaved OF their fathers: pity Eu-
rope over which broods such havoc and
disaster. DO Thou inspire rulers and
peoples win counsels OF meekness; do
Thou heal the discords that tear the ma
tons asrnder; Thou who didst shed Thy
precious blood that they might live as
brothers, bring men together once more
In loving harmony And as once before
to the city OF the Apostle Peter: Save
us. Lord, or we perish, Thou didst answer
with words of mercy. and didst stll the
raging waves, so now deign to hear our
trustful' prayer, and give back to the
world peace and tranquility.
And do Thou, o most Holy Virgin. as
in other times OF sore distress he now
our help. our protection and our safe
guard. Amen"
Tho prayer was composed by his hol-
ness. II Is accompanied by a decree from
Cardinal Gesparri, secretary of state for
the vatican, prescribing in detail the form
OF services for Passion Sunday.

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CATAR.
RIAL DEAFNESH AND
HEAD NOISES.

If you know someone who 10 troubled

cut out this formula, and hand 1t to them,
and you will have been the means of saw
deafness Recent experiments have proved
COncmsively that Catarrhal Deafness,
head noises, etc, were the direct cause
of constitutional disease, and that salves,
sprays, inhalers etc, merely temporize
with the complaint and seldom, If ever,
effect a permanent cure. This being 80,
much time and money has been spent OF
late by a noted specialist In perfecting a
pure, gentle. yet effective tonic that
would quickly dispel all traces of the ca
tarrhal poison from the system. The eff
feCtive prescription which was eventually
formulated, and which has aroused the
belief that deafness will soon be extinct.
is given below in understandable form,

their own home at little expense.

this home and add TO IL a pint of hot
water and 4 OF. of granulated sugar; stir

The first dose should begin to relieve

dizziness, cloudy thinking, etc, willis the
hearing rapidly returns as the system is
inEigorated by the tonic action of the
treatment. Loss OF smell and mucous

other symptoms that show the presence
OF catarrhal poison, and which are often
entirely overcome by this efficacious
treatment. Nearly ninety per cent of all

NEW YORK, March 16.-Harry
X. Thaw will not be sent back TO
New Hampshire by the state of New
York, as his counsel demanded, but
must be returned to Matteawan asy-
lum unless legal papers calling for
his detention in New York county
are served upon the warden Of
Tombs prison.
Such was Supreme Court Justice
Pages decision today in disposing of
the formal motion to have Thaw re-
turned TO New England. In the
meantime counsel for Thaw, as IL in
anticipation of Just such a decision,
had obtained from Supreme Court
Justice Blur a writ of habeas corpus,
which will keep Thaw in Tombs
prison till next Friday, when he must
be produced in court.
II was close call for Thaw, as plans
had been considered by the state for re-
turning him at once TO his long time
residence In the hospital for the criminal
ingane. Asylum attendants were in the
court room ready TO rush him there by
automobile the moment the motion for a
return to New Hampshire was denied
But the writ OF hobeas corpus which had
been served half an hour before on War

twenty deputies with revolvers and scat
tered them through the crowd that packed
the court room. Many more armed depu-
ties were sprinkled among the crowds In
the corridors.

said. II am well heeied for an abduc-

Thaw entered the court smiling and
confident. When the decision was an
nounced hts smile changed to a frown.
A moment later two OF the sheriffs depu-
ties led him away TO The Tombs.

Justice Page took occasion 20 comment
in his decision on the good faith displayed
by the state of New York toward New
Hampshire by placing Thaw on trial ON
the conspiracy charge. There had been
no evidence. the court held, to warrant
the charge that Thaw had been brought
back simply TO be sent again to Mattea-
wan Nor had there been adduced any
adequate reason why Thaw should be sent
back to New Hampshire after his trial
and acquittal
Thaw was to go back to Matteawan,
Justice Page decided. upon the old COM
mitment OF Justice Bowling.
The next step in the litigation TO keep
Thaw out of Matteawan will be taken
Friday before Justice Blur upon return
OF the writ of habeas corpus. 1t Ia ex-
pected an effort will be made then TO
have the question as TO Thaw's sanity de-
cided by a Jury.
MIR. Stanchfield. Thaw's counsel. said
The motion TO have Mr.. Thaw returned
TO New Hampshire and it's denial are
without precedent in law. In case Of
this kind where a mans sanity and con-
stitutional rights are involved 1t seems TO
me that the matter should be settled by
