Proven Swamp-Root
Aids Weak Kidneys

The symptoms of kidney and bladder
troubles are often very distressing and
leave the system in a rundown condi-
ton. The kidneys seem to suffer most,
as almost every victim complains of
lame back and urinary troubles which
should not be neglected, as these dan
ger signals often lead to dangerous
kidney troubles.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root which
soon heals and strengthens the kidneys
Is o splendid kidney, liver and bladder
remedy, and, being an herbal COM
pound, has a gentle healing effect on
tho kidneys, which is almost immedi-
ately noticed in most cases by those
who use 1t.
A trial will convince anyone who may
be in need Of it. Better get bottle
from your nearest drug store, and start
treatment at once.
However, If you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents to

REVERENCE FOR THE BLESSED
VIRGIN.

The marked development of spirit
of reverence towards the Mother of
the worlds Redeemer among those
outside of the Church is one of the
most consoling signs of the age in
which we live. 1t is another proof of
the great fact that those who live in
heresy are beginning to realize their
inconsistency, and that the struggle
in the religious world is rapidly mar
rowing down to the conflict between
Catholicity and infidelity.
When it was reported some years
ago that notorious French actress
was about to present a religious
drama" in which she would take the
part of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the
whole Christian world was shocked
md scandalized; and among the pro-
tests that were made against such a
proclamation not the least forcible were
those that came from Protestant lips.
To cite one of many, an anonymous
writer in the London Telegraph spoke
as follows:
ut is difficult for those who do not
belong to the Roman obedience to ap-
preciate the horror with which they
must hear of Partisan artist posing

SMALL wAaEssaFoR OUR CATE
- cHIsTs.

Catechists in mission countries must
undertake their work solely for the
love of God, for their material re-
ward is so small as to be almost
ludicrous.
Father Relave, P. F. NJ, who writes
to us occasionally from Fukyama,
japan, says he employs a man. and a
woman catechist who are married and
have a boy fourteen years old. This
worthy couple go out daily among the
pagans to preach and teach the Faith,
and they must be neatly clothed and
present I respectable appearance.
Then, too, they have to care for their
son and send him to school. Yet the
payment given them for their mis-.
sionary labor is only eight dollars a
month. Upon this small sum the
family manages to exist.
1t goes without saying that only a
high religious sentiment could induce
man to give up the good wages he
might earn at various trades to live
in poverty as a catechist. Yet the
missions all over the world show in
Vulnerable examples of this spirit OF
self-sacrifice on the part of natives.

before a Partisan audience as Holy
Mary's representative. One need not,
however, be Roman Catholic to I'M
derstand the objections to this propo-
sition. The, Virgin Mother lives ten
derby in the memories of all men, as
the purest type of high ideal, and
her browning sorrow has been the
worlds greatest tragedy in the tradi-
tions of nearly 1000 years. The most
vigorous asserter of secularism and
free-thought must respect the feel
ings of the Christian world on a sub
ject so tender and so sacred in it's ma
jestic outlines. She lives in legend,
she looks down on us from the canvas
of the masters, and the greatest poets
have brought their homage to her feet.
Now the Parisians propose to make
her the theme of the green-room-the
topic of the bouleVard-to present an
image of her based on the undoubted
but utterly alien genius of the great
Sarah, aided by the wigmaker, the
property manager, and all the purvey-
ors of washes and paints, with lime
light effects lavishly thrown in. Vol
taire threw dirt at Joan of Arc, but
in this insult to the Virgin there is
something far more than defamation
of national heroine: it is an outrage
on the feelings of one-third of the
human race"

which they had no priest. They are
simple and good and attend Mass and
the sacramento in way that is really
edifying. There is one great danger
to my parish and that is the strength
of the public school, where, of course,
no religion is taught, but which is
made so attractive to the children that

ought to send their children there.

ExPIATIoN FOR PAGAN DEFECTS

We hear occasionally from FIR.
Lelasquier, Chaplain of the Trappis-
tine convent at Hokkaido, Japan, and
the news is always encouraging. Not
only is the community of monks con-
tinually gaining members from among
the Japanese, but the number of
Trappistine nuns is rapidly increas-
ing. At present there are fifty-two
Sisters, and the prospect is that they
will soon reach sixty.
This is a very good showing, when
the severity of the rule of La Trappe
is taken into consideration. But
Father Lelasquier says that nuns will
never be too numerous to offer up the
expiration needed to repair the faults
of the pagans by whom they are sur
rounded.

ANCIENT RELIGIOUS
FEUD ALIVE AGAIN
Buddhists Want Equal Rights
With ShinteiSm, Throughout
Japanese Empire

TOXIC, June "a controversy
which Is centuries old, between the
Buddhist and shinto religions in Japan
over the question of their respective
supremacy has broken out anew
through the presentation Of a petition
+" the government requesting largeI
recognition of the Buddhist religion.
Ever since the introduction of Budd

in the sixth century a struggle has gone
on between Buddhism and ShintOism
The latter is now the religion of the
court and was the basis of all the eere.
monies held at Kioto last year on the
occasion of the conservation of Emper-

A delegation of twelve pointiffs
representing the ffty-six Buddhist
sests of Japan recently called upon
Doctor TakAta, the Minister of Educa-
tiOn, and submitted a series of resolu.
tons which had been previously adopt.
ed by the sects of the empire. The
resolutions declared that in view of
the fact that freedom of religious
thought was fully guaranteed by the
Constitution, the official attitude to-
wards Buddhism showed lack of SYN.

decide upon a basic policy towards
religions and enact new religion law.
