SH GE00ENS-
 LONDON. July 21.-The intensity 3f the British and French attacks against the German front north and south of the Somme River in northern France appears to have lessened greatly. according to the latest of- fieial statement London declares g Hull has set in on the British front and the Paris official statement of Friday night mentions no activity along the whole front from north of the SOmme to Switzerland
 In the salient of the Leipsic re- doubt, the Germans entered the ground held by the general headquarters forces but were elected subsequently, LoEdOn asserts.
 2oo.cco In Attack.
 The Anglo-French attacks against the German lines north and south of the Somme on Thursday were fruit less. according to Berlin. except on a two mile front south of Harde- court where the Germans retired from first line trenches about 500 kilometers in the rear. The attack. Berlin says. preceded by violent ar tillery fire on a front of more than twenty seven miles. and was parti- cipated in by more than 200.0o0 men.
 North of La Basse an attack Wed nesday by the British in the region Of Fromelles resulted disastrously for them. Berlin says. the British los ing more than two thousand men killed and nearly 800 men made pris- oners Floods on the Dneister pre- venting any advance further into Gal icia from the south and east for the time being. the Russians are driving in the AustrO-Germans toward the northern Galician border below Vlad- imir-Volynski Both Berlin and Vien- na admit the retirement of part of General von Linsingen's forces from the region of the confluence Of the Sty and fipa Rivers to the Restchk north of Brody.
 -PetrOgrad asserts the retirement of the AustIS-Germans was the result Of an impetuos attack in which more than 1.60O prisoners were taken. Der lin and Vienna say the withdrawal was made in the execution Of an en- velopingi movement
 In addition to capturing Gumusk- haneh. forty miles northwest of Bai- burt, the Russian armies in Turkish Armenia are advancing in other sec tors

by a special order of the Holy See
issued on July 2, 1911. The same
holds good for parishes where the
feast of the Patron Saint (titular) Of
the church is observed with solemnity
and large concourse of people.
Persons excused from fast may use
flesh meat more than once on the days
when it is allowed at all, whether in
Lent or outside Of that season.
Catholics having attained the suf-
fcient use of reason are bound by the
law of abstinence. But when it is
either physically or morally impossible
tc observe the law, or when it
would entail serious difficulties, they
are excused from it.
In virtue of the Apostolic faculties
granted us by the Holy See we hereby
delegate pastors to dispense, in each
single case, from abstinence the men
actually engaged in threshing as well
as the farmer families at whose place
threshing is going on.
Catholics having completed their
twenty-frst year of age, are bound to
fast. But the causes of excuse just
mentioned in regard to abstinence, ap-
ply also to the law of fasting. Hence
the church ordinarily exempts from
fasting the sick and those in feeble
health (whether by sickness or old
age); women nursing children; all who
are engaged in laborious and exhaust
ing occupations. Persons in doubt
whether they are excused or not,
should consult their confessor or pastor
for advice or dispensation.
In virtue Of an Apostolic indult we
permit workingmen and their families
the use of flesh meat at the principal
common meal on all fast days and alb
stinence days throughout the year, with
the exception Of all Fridays, Ash
Wednesdays, the Wednesday and Sat-
urday of Holy week and the Eve
of Christmas.
Persons excused or dispensed from
the law of fast or abstinence ought to
perform some other good works of
piety and charity in the spirit of
Christian penance and sanctifcation.
Hence the pious custom of giving Len
ten aims. Redeem thou thy sins with
aims and thy iniquities with works of
mercy Dan. iv. "a. Also the custom
o. abstaining from Intoxicating drinks,
or staying away from theatres, dances,
card parties and other profane amuse-
ments, etc.
The rules will be read and explain
ed at the masses on Quinquagesima
Sunday, March 5. On the first Sun
day in Lent the collections for Indian
and negro missions will be taken,
while Good Friday the collections for
the Holy Land will be made.

Our Republican, Senator.

When forty-one United States sena-
tors and the vice president recently
voted to haul down all Of the American
flags in the Philippines, it was quite
natural for the average old resident to
recall what Gen. John A. Dix, then
secretary of the treasury, said, in 1861,
when informed that the enemy threat
ened to remove the Stars and Stripes
from the customs house: eff any man
attempts to haul down the American
flag, shoot him on the spot. One
man attempted it and lost his life for
his pains. How much worse was that
one man s offense in New Orleans in
the long ago than the senator's deci-
sion to haul down the flag in the Philip
pines at a time when to do so will
mean disaster to the Filipinos and last
ing disgrace to the American republic
The people of Wisconsin should keep
in mind that Senator LaFollette who
has been honored, fed and pampered in
office much ever since he reached his
majority, joined his Democratic CO.
workers in that he voted to haul down
the American flag to the injury Of
millions of people and the shame of
his country Sentinel.

MIR. FAvILLE,s COUSIN DIES.

The distinguished DR.. Henry B. Fa-
will of Chicago who died Sunday in
Massachusetts was cousin Of the Rev.
Theo. Faville Of this city, although DR..
Favill's branch of the family dropped
the final &c" from the name some time
ago.
In commenting editorialIy upon DR..
Favill's death, the Chicago Tribune
pays the following tribute to the dead
man:
"A man who leads in his own pro-
fesslon is accounted a success. Usually
men are not big enough for one profess
sion. DR.. Henry B. Favill, who died in
Springfield, Mass, on Sunday, was big
ger than his profession. He succeeded
IN relating his profession Intimately to
life, and he had enough energy to do
work outside Of his profession.
Quite Enthusiastically he died in
the performance Of one of these extra
professional duties. He vent to Spring
held to address the New England Dairy
association. DR.. Favi11 knew from his
profession the dangers of impure milk.
lie did not merely warn against milk.
lie established model farm in Wiseou-
SIN and attempted to work out practical
means for avoiding impure milk.
lt was the same in politics. DR..
Fav1ll was not content to see and un-
aerstand the dangers of impure politics
IN Chlcago. He went out and worked
against them. For three years he was
president of the Municipal Voters
league.
Chlcago can get along without men
IKE Dr. Favill. But it cannot get
ahead without them.''
