500 ILLEGITIMATE CHILDREN.

"The American" of January 18th, 1895, con-
tains the following: During the Breckenridge
trial it developed that at the Norwood Convent
near Washington, 500 ilegitmate children were
born within five years. And these holy nuns had
to have the permission of Cardinal Satolli before
they would consent to appear in court and testify
refrain from commenting upon the above
tracts. There are learned Catholics in Cornwall
some of them regular readers of this paper. What
is their reply? I do not want generaties, such as
that the Church is accustomed to being vilifed by
Protestants and unbelievers. Can they dsprove
the statement as to the frequent immortality of
celibate clergy, and the finding of infants Fodies
the communication between mOnasteries ana nun
neries, the cruel uses of the cords of disCipline
etc.? Even if they cannot it does not follow that
there not millions of Roman Catholics, in
Guiding priests and nuns, who lead exemplary
lives. But if only 1.-THE of what is alleged is
true-and have heard similar things from people
who have travelled much in South America and
other countries where Roman Catholicism is the
nominal religion-it is enough to make one
doubt the wisdom Of celibacy and seclusion the
part of priests monks and nuns; and lends the
strongest possible argument in FAVOR of visits by
Government inspectors, and perfect liberty being
accorded to every grade Of to return to the
world and their families For those who give
themselves up to deeds of mercy and selfsacrifce
one can only have the highest respect; but for
others who become mOrbidy lgous as to
take the black veil and become clustered nuns,
the epitaph given in Victims of the Priest is
scarcely unmerted
"Here lies the body of a woman
Gods nOblest creation a helpmeet for man,
No home ever frightened by her life
No husbands heart and love rejOiced in her.
No children ever sung the praises of her mothers
love,
A mis-spent, wasted life!"

ABSOLVING THE WOMEN.

CGlestine lays it down ode Sarc. Panit, c.
Xxx, that a priest may absolve with
whom he sins occasionally and not constantly and
habituaIly. This view is sanctioned by famous
caSuiSts like GratiuS Sancius, Vivaldus, Diana.
Du Jardin again lays it down that Confessor
need not abstain from hearing the confession of
penitent, unless he be accustomed to fall deber-
ately two or three times month";" that is to say,
one deliberate fall per month with a penitent is to
be lightly thought of.
Miss Cusack writes as follows in her book Life
Inside the Church Of Rome:' 1T my inf
ntely sad lot to have been asked by an English
bishop, and by English cardinal to take charge
of mission where the priest had ruined four OF
his sc9hComistresses. one after the other HIS
last victim had child, whom she could not sup

And I have reason to know that this is not
common case. have heard the sad Of many
girls, teachers who under the absolute control
OF the priest, who have been led on step by step
to evil, and hand stretched out TO
them, because dared to interfere with the
priest who led them to ruin. l have heard their
weary story Of shame and sin, and how they
cODsOled and silenced in the Confessional.
''Al this is happening in the England and in
the America OF today and must be hidden at the
peril OF the ruined woman, because-the Church
teaches-it is far greater sin to accuse priest
Of sin than to SIN with q priest."-p 141.
What can be said in answer to the suicide of the
priest Of the Carmelito nunnery at Cracow, to
evade arrest for his Ubiquitous conduct with poor
Barbara Ubryk, the Carmelite nun of that city?
This poor deluded victim Of Rome refused to

WOMAN LIKES TO KNOW

There is a story in the September Woman's Home Companion in which this passage occurs:
 "'She seems like a nice, quiet lady hesitated the minister's wife. She was not referring to Lucretta Sutton; quiet was not the adjective for Lu- cetta.
 "'Oh, she's quiet enoughl The quiet ones are the hardest to find out about. I don't believe she has spoken to ten souls in Sloam-spoken to 'em.'
 "'Maybe ten souls in Siloam haven't spoken

USE MOTOR TRUCKS
 FOR SHOW STOCK

Farm and Preside, the national farm paper published at Springfield, Ohio, says:
 "A breeder of fine Guernseys wished to exhibit sixteen of his best animals at fair sixteen miles away. There was no direct rail route, and he dis liked to drive them that far in hot weather.
 By using a three-ton motor truck he moved them all safely in one day, thereby keeping them fresh and in good condition for exhibition pur- poses. Up to distances of seventy five miles, motor trucks compete fav- orably with railroads in the economy of handling perishable freight. Long trips are usually made at night, when there is little traffic on the roads,"

MORE WINTER PASTURES.

The shortage of corn in most parts of Arkansas ought to make every farmer anxious to plant wheat, rye or oats for cover crops and for winter pasture. Let every patriotic man in Arkansas urge his neighbors to have enough winter pasture for all his stock and lots of green stuff to blow under next March. Rye may be seed ed for winter pasture from now on up to the first of November, in cotton and corn middles or in other fields The Extension Division of the Univer- sity of Arkansas and U. s Depart ment of Agriculture is engaged with it's whole force of 114 people -' cam paign for clover and other winter cover crops and is grateful for the assistance of the business organiza- tions of the state, the Arkansas Bankers Association, the Farm Blu reaus of the Memphis and Little Rock Boards of Commerce, the railroads and the many other patriotic agencies in the state.
