OUR HERITAGE OF WOE.

There are certain considerations
which must not be passed over, which
serve to reconcile us to the heritage
of woe for which our first parents are
responsible We are fond of enter
Z, tanning the idea that had they never
sinned all would be sunny and serene
for us. There would be no suffering,
no death, no temptation. We would
have heaven upon earth followed by
a deathless translation to the endless
joys of those who dwell with God in
IBIS glory. Herein we make mistake.
There would be indeed for us no suf-
fering and no death as long as we
did not disobey Gods command. We
would be in the same condition in
which our first parents were before
their sin; but there is not the slightest
ground for supposing that we would
be better off than were they. We
would be liable to temptation as they
were. We could fall as they did. And
if we fell, because this fall would
be an individual affair and would not
involve the whole human race as
theirs did, there might be no Re-
deemer to rescue us from the conse-
quences of our fall which would be
death both of soul and body.
Let us not be- carried away with the
idea that had our first parents never
sinned, we could attain Heaven with
out an effort, without victory. Such
a supposition is contrary to the
course of Gods dealings with both
angels and men. For both, the rule
has been: mo one shall be crowned
who has not fought faithfully" We
fight of course under certain disad-
vantages which our first parents had
not, but at the same time through the
grace of God, through Jesus Christ
Our Lord, we can attain to heights OF
bliss such as they could never have
reached under conditions before
their fall. A grander Immortality, a
more glorious eternity is ours through
Gethsemane than we could ever have
attained through Eden. Hence the
Church in that magnificent hymn in
which on Easter Saturday she cele
brates the Saviours victory over
death, does not hesitate to eXclain
concerning our first parents sin:
20 happy fault which obtained sucf
and so great a Redeemer." And sc
we have seen how Catholicity ha:
stood for Redemption's greatness ant
necessity whilst at the same time OPP
posing human degradation, has OPP
posed the excuses of Pelagianism OF
the one hand and Predestinarianisn
on the other, has alone given an eX
PLANTATION of Original Sin which brings
out in the strongest colours it's evi
results and the fullness and gratui
tousness of our deliverance therefron
through Jesus Christ, without destroy
ing the freedom of mans will or offer
Q ing any offence to right, reason.

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. FRANCIS cARAccloLo.

Francis was born in the kingdom of
Naples, of the princely family of
Caracciolo. In childhood he, stunned
all amusements, recited the rosary reg
ularly, and loved to visit the Blessed
Sacrament and to distribute his food
to the poor. An attack of leprOsy
taught him the vileness of the human
body and the vanity of the world. Al
most miraculously cured, he renounc.
ed his home to study for the priest
hood in Naples, where he spent his
leisure hours in the prisons, or visit.
ing the Blessed Sacrament in unfre-
quented churches. God called him,
when only twenty-five, to found an
Order of Clerks Regular, whose rule
was that each day one father tasted
on bread and water, another took the
discipline, third wore hair.shirt,
while they always watched by turns in
perpetual alteration before the Blessed
Sacrament. They took the usual
VOWS, adding a fourth-not to desire
dignities; and their motto was, "Ad
majorem Resurgentfs gloriam." To
establish his Order Francis undertook
many journeys through Italy and
Spain, on foot and without money, con
tent with the shelter and crusts given
him in charity. Being elected general
he redoubled his austerities, and de.
voted seven hours daily to meditation
on the Passion, besides passing most
of the night praying before the Blessed
Sacrament. He died of fever, aged
forty -four, on the eve of Corpus
Christi, 1908, saying, Let us go, lei
us go to heaven!'
Francis was commonly called the
Preacher of Divine Love. But it was
before the Blessed Sacrament that his
ardent devotion was most clearly per
ceptible. In presence Of his Divine
Lord, his face usually emitted brill
ant rays of light; and he often bathed
the ground with his tears when he
prayed, according to his custom
PROSTATE on his face before his taber
nacle, and constantly repeating, as
one deyoured by internal fire, "The
zeal of Thy house hath eaten me up.
When his body was opened after
death, his heart was found as it were
burnt UP, and these words imprinted
around it, "Zelus domus Tuae comedi
me-"

ly that one loves Him. We can ask
forgiveness so readily for the faults
we have committed. We can feel His
tender pity and pardon coming to us
from that figure that upon the Cross
pardoned His enemies. We can
think of the evil we have done, of
time lost never to be regained, OF
graces received and unaccounted for
We can blush to be in so comfortable
bed when He is dead on gibbet
We can take courage from the thought
of Gods love, and if sleep is long
in coming, the time passes quickly
in such sweet company.
l offer you these few thoughts that
will lead you to better prize your
crucifix. 1t will bring the thought of
Jesus nearer to heart and mind; and
what would you more. May the cru.
cifix be your wealth and your hope.

THE cRUcIFIx.

For some moments each day let us
fix our eyes, thoughts, and affections
on the image of our crucified Lord.
Ponder meanwhile on these salutary
thoughts and counsels of a sanity
French writer, Pere D'AlZOn:
Have you a crucifx? What do you
do with it? Keep it near you. Let
it be on your desk when you write,
or ON your workable, that when you
raise your eyes they may fall upon
the image of Jesus, and when you
sleep hold the crucifix in your hand
1t is true that nothing can equal, as
means of sanctifying grace, the
practice of frequent Communion and
alteration of the Blessed Sacrament,
but we cannot always be in the Di-
vine Presence, nor can we receive
Jesus in our hearts as often as we
desire. One can, however, always
wear His image, and this image of
Jesus speaks a language of it's own
that will help the soul in many ways.
Why do you not, when you rise in the
morning, kiss the cruciix with love,
promising Our Lord that you will low
ingly carry the crosses He sends you
throughout the day? Why not, when
making your meditation, hold the
crucifix in your hands, desiring to
immediate yourself to Jesus as He i'm
violates Himself on the altar for love
of you?
How easily would fervour be re-
newed if now and then you looked
.llpon the souvenir of the sorrows OF
Jesus!
How easily would temptations be
overcome, and pain and suffering grow
sweet to bear, if we clasped the cruel
fix to our hearts and asked of Jesus
the grace of fortitude!
How consoling and helpful would
be our service, if, kneeling before the
crucifix ere we started out on some
errand of charity, we remembered
that it was Jesus we were about to
visit in the person of His. poor.
If at evening you came to render
before your crucifix the account of the
day, of your pride beside the humility
of Jesus, your vanity before His
humiliations, to think of your luke
warmness, your want of charity and
His patient waiting, His unwearying
calls to your unresponsive heart,
would not that crucifix become to you
a dear and intimate friend,
Our Lord will love, will instruct
you through His image, and by this
divine intercourse you will find your
self little by little quite transformed.
1t will no longer be the wood of the
Cross that will reproduce the features
of the Saviour. That likeness will be
craven more ineffaceably on your
own heart. You will feel the Divine
Redeemer, Who for love of you was
bound to that Cross, acting more i'm
mediately upon your own soul, and
you will learn to say with st. Paul,
ITO live for me, is Christ" your life,
your reward.
May tell you in confidence the
happiest moment of my own day. 1t is
when before | close my eyes in sleep
/ look upon my crucifix It is not SO
difficult to think of this good Master
when enc holds His image in. ones
hand. One can tell Him then so east
