Following is the letter of the Car
dinal Secretary of State:
The Vatican, April 10, 1916.
Most Illustrious Sir:
Despite the notable effect Of the
European war on the far away country
of America, especially from an econ
omic standpoint, American Catholics,
fully aware of the increased distress
of the Holy See, have contributed with
a generosity even greater than that
of the past to alleviate the narrowing
conditions through which the Holy
See is now passing. At the same
time they have not omitted to come
to the help of their brethren in Christ,
who are victims of the ruthless war
which is rayaging the nations of the
Old Continent.
So noble an act, performed amidst
conditions as critical as the present,
is new and tangible proof of that
attachment, which holds the American
people, in accordance with their glori-
GUS tradition, bound to the Chair of
st. Peter, and to the Common Father
of Christendom.
Such a testimony of f1lial devotion
and veneration cannot fail to be a
source of consolation to the Sovereign
Pontiff, whose heart is SO deeply
grieved over the sorrowful events that
sadden the world.
therefore direct you to make
known to the Faithful of the United
States, in what manner you Judge
most opportune, the. Holy Fathers
sense of gratitude for their devout
contributions to the Holy See and to
the many works of charity that have
arisen in consequence of this war, and
to assure them that His Holiness,
while extolling them for their lively
faith and filia1 piety, repays their de-
yotion with an affection most tender
and paternal. And a pledge of this is
the Apostolic Benediction which he
imparts to each and all of the con-
tributors, imploring upon them the
abundance of heavenly reward.
In conveying the above to you by
the venerable order of the August
Pontiff, | gladly make use of this oc-
casion to subscribe myself with senti-
ments of distinct esteem,
Most affectionately yours, In Xt.

Appended to this present letter are
the lists of contributions received from
the several parishes of the Diocese in
the year, 1915, to the benefit of the
Holy See. The lists should be read
with attention, that those parishes
which to-day deserve praise make
effort to gain yet higher praise in
future lists that those parishes whose
smallness of gift invites reproach
make effort in fature opportunities to
be more worthy of their sonship in
the Supreme Pohtihcate than hereto
fore they have permitted themselves
to appear.
Our special appeal is to our high
minded and jealous priests. AS the
priest, so the flock. AS the priest
strives to do, SO the flock will be led
to do. Let the words of the priest,
in the announcement of the Pente-
costal Collection vibrate with warm
love for the Holy See: let his very
voice be the signal of loyalty and Of
devotion: let it be plain that his pride
| is his parish, and what his parish is
willing and able to do for Church and
for Pontificate. The people will not
fail to respond.
1t is not for us to weigh and
measure the generosity of the Faith
| full Catholic: this to be done by each
ones own thoughts and affections.
This, however, we permit ourselves TO
say-that, excepting cases of poverty
where the widows mite is graciously
given and graciously accepted, the
contribution from each family to the
benefit of the Holy See should not fall
below the sum of one dollar those
who are blessed with temporal means
and at the same time rise higher in
faith and divine life giving what their
hearts command
We recall, with very strong in
sistance, the statute of the Diocese
lof St. Paul ordering that the full sums
| of collections taken up at each and
every mass on Pentecost Sunday be
| set aside as belonging to the Holy
See-no deductions whatever being
allowed for the benefit of local parish
TREASURES. In some places, we have
had reason to believe, trustees deduct
from the gross sum Of collections an
equivalent Of the average Sunday col
lection, to the intent that the parish
treasury lose nothing of its regular
receipts. This custom, wherever or
however introduced! is formally pro-
hibited. The parish as such, no less
than it's individual membership, must
| pay tribute to the Holy See.
This present letter viii be read at
the several masses in all the churches
of the Diocese on the Sunday pre-
ceding Pentecost Sunday June 4th;
and on Pentecost Sunday itself June
l11th, reference to it will be made and
words of earnest fervor spoken in
commentator of its purport.
| pray God to bless the Clergy and
the Faithful People of the Diocese Of
| st. Paul.

Archbishop Of st. Paul.

THE ANNUAL COLLECTION, ON
PENTEcosT SUNDAY, FOR THE
BENEFIT or THE HOLY SEE.

To the Clergy and the Lalty of the
Diocese of ST. Paul:
Beloved Brethren:
make the announcement of the
annual collection for the benefit of
the Holy See, to be taken up, in this
year of Grace, 1915, at the several
masses in all the churches of the Dio-
cese of st. Paul, on the Forthcoming
Pentecost Sunday, the eleventh day of
June.
A year ago, addressed to the
Clergy and the Laity of the Diocese of
st. Paul an urgent appeal in favor of
this annual collection. To my appeal
there was given an encouraging re-
sponse-the offerings going consider
ably beyond the sums obtained in any
preceding year. | must hope and be-
lieye that the contributions to be made
in the year 1915 will not only be equal
to those of the year 1915, but will
establish the consoling fact that devo-
ton to the Holy See, and love for the
| illustrious Sovereign of the Church,
Benedict XIV, become with the pass
ing of time stronger and more vivid
among the Catholics of the Diocese of
st. Paul, as, fortunately for them
selves, their temporal circumstances,
enabling them to give substantial
proof of devotion and love, continue,
under the beneficent hand of Provi-
dence, to endow them with higher and
more blessed prosperity.
| In view of what they already have
been doing, and of what, no doubt,
| they are prepared to do in the future,
| the Catholics of the Diocese of st.
Paul, priests and laity, may take de-
lseryedly to themselves the thanks of
the Holy Father. expressed in recent
letter Of his Cardinal Secretary of
State and addressed to all those in the
United States who have proven, by
their generous offerings, their loyalty
| to the Holy See and their intelligent
understanding of the needs with which
| it is circumscribed and of the duties
incumbent upon Catholics on account
of those needs.

Seeing Tanlac so extensively recon-

Her appetite is good now, and she eats
anything she wants. She is regaining

been replaced by a rosy color. She
bears little resemblance to herself as
she was a month ago, and she is in
fine spirits
"It is almost unbelievable that any
medicine could bring such wonderful
results, but tTanlac has done so in the
case of Mrs. Free, and it can not be
praised too highly. She is now taking
her third bottle"

what hundreds of ailing persons need.
