BLOOD-STAINED
BABY'S CRADLE.

According to a dispatch from an
European capital, German soldiers
have sent cradle to the Crown Prin-
cess made of wood stained with
French blood. !;
Many well-meaning people prefer
to dream that the world is growing
better all the time, but the fact stares
us in the face that acts of brutal
ity and bestiality recorded of some OF
the ancients are often reproduced in
our day, this glorious twentieth cen:
fury. !:
The ancient Canaanites, whose coun-
try was subdued by Joshua, were
wont to drink the blood of their en-
emies from their skulls, others have
painted their faces with the blood OF,
fellow-creatures Many acts of bestial--;;
ity may be learned by reading be-.
tween the lines in the Pentateuch.
The Israelites were warned against
certain crimes against human nature
which they were told was the custom
of the people of the land.
The cruel Herodias would be salts
fled with nothing but the head Of
John the Baptist, and her daughter
the bold Salome, carried to her upor
a dish the CHASTITY head after it had
been severed from the body.
The future history of the royal
babe who is to be lulled to sleep IT
a cradle painted with the blood of
Frenchmen is known only to the
Creator, One half of the children
born. it is said, die in infancy. The
little one may pass away and become
one of the innoccnts switch do always
behold the face Of their Father in
heaven"
1t may, however, survive the perils
of. babyhood and reach maturity. Will
the future German prince revel in the
fact that his cradle was smeared with
the blood of people whom the Faith
erland wished to crush?
Blood is terrible reminder o.
wicked deeds. Lady Macbeth walked
in her sleep and cursed the spots
upon her hands which never were tt
be erased.
When infants smile in their limo
cency it is said that they see angels;
and we are told that heavenly visi.
tors watch the footsteps of the young
and helpless. "They Shall bear thee
up in their arms lest at any time thou
strike thy foot against a stone" is
beautiful figure of speech represent
ing nurses lifting a little one over ar
obstruction in its path.
1t is said we sometimes make the
angels weep. The guardian of the lit
tie prince is to perform its vigils by
the side of blood-stained cradle,
Dreams sometimes cause infants tt
shrek in terror Are phantoms OF
those whose blood was used to paint
the cradle to keep watch with the
guardian angel ?
