EATING LEAVES AND ROOTS.

At Bangueolo we are particularly
tried. Since the opening of hostilities
not only have we not received any
supply of even the most necessary
provisions, but our supply of provi-
sions and articles of need for 1914, $50
cases in all, became prize of war in
the territory of German East Africa.
You may imagine the privations that
this loss has occasioned the mission
aries both in their person and in their
works. In the midst of the African
brush we are obliged to send to Eu-
rope for everything, articles of wor-
ship, vestments, furniture, tools and
utensils of all kinds. To this priva-
ton, bad enough of itself, another has
been added as a direct result of the
war
You know Bangueolo has on it's
northern frontiers two colonies, one
German and the other English. Troops
were placed on this frontier by both
belligerents and these troops required
rations. Accordingly by order of the
EIlSllSu OONCl ICQulSlLlOuo lOl
victuals were made upon the poor ne
groes. These, accustomed to live only
from hand to mouth and to make pro-
visions only from one day to another,
never store up even necessaries.
Those urgent acquisitions, therefore,
were levied on what for the negroes
were absolute necessaries of life A
veritable famine has been the result,
especially among the populations
along the frontier
paid a visit to these districts in
the month of February. The misery
saw! Villages were deserted. The
people were scattered through the for
ests in search of roots and leaves tc
allay their hunger. The men, women
and children l met were skeletons In
two months more than 500 died Of
hunger. What suffering! Yet l an
powerless to relieve it. There is moth
ing at hand and no way of getting in
anything from elsewhere. May the
divine Mercy accept all this afflictior
and deign to give back to the world
peace-and the sentiments of Chris
tian religion, the only sure guarantee
against the scourge of war.

BLACK PRIEST HOLDING HIS OWN
AGAINST MoHAMMEDANs.

The native priest, Father Louis
Caesar. who serves the Sanctuary of
Our Lady of Deliverance at Gopon-
guine, is entrusted with the evangeli-
zation of all the neighboring villages.
He is most jealous priest and is
working with the greatest fervor for
the conversion of his countrymen. But
he has to contend against the machi-
nations of the Mohammedans, who are
numerous in these parts. They would
be delighted to see the church of Our
Lady fall to ruins from it's present lack
of necessary repairs. They would clap
their hands with JOY at this discomfit-
ure of the Catholics. 1t would take
from $500 to $500 to do the repairing.
Who will give Lenten aims towards
keeping the Sanctuary of Our Lady at
Goponguine?

MUZZLED OXEN THREADING OUT
THE CORN.

The Vicar Apostolic of Kilubula in
Nyasaland writes: ''The mission
aries, Notwithstanding the new difficult
ties, have not faltered in their labors
and God has given them added
strength. The catechists noticing our
misery have made over to us their
scant salaries, and our neophites for
the same reason have been willing to
cultivate. our fields for nothing. They
say: Our priests must live if they are
going to work for our salvation
Moreover in the rare intervals when
free from war transport service, our
Christians show the greatest desire to
partake of the Sacramento and the
catechumens and even the heathens
are anxious for instruction. The first
thing, they repeat, is to serve God
and save our SOUL

CATHOLICISM ROMAN AND
ANGLICAN"

In his book, Catholicism Roman
and Anglican" Professor A. M. Fair
BARN, non-Catholic, says:
4 freely admit the pre-eminence of
Catholicism as an historical nstltu-
ton; here she is without rival, or
a peer. If to be at once the most
permanent and extensive, the most
plastic and inf1eXible ecclesiastical or
SANITATION we're the same thing as
the most perfect embodiment, and
vehicle of religion, then the claim OF
Catholicism were simply indisputable.
The man in search of an authorita-
tive church may not hesitate; once
let him assume that a visible and
audible authority is of the essence OF
religion, and he has no choice; he
must become or get himself reckoned
a Catholic.
The Roman Church asSails his I'M
derstanding with invincible charms.
Her sons proudly say to him: She
alone is Catholic, continuous, veneer
able, august, the very Church Christ
1UullOGu anu Ills ApOollCo lLoIAbuISo
and organized. She possesses all the
attributes and notes of Catholicity-
an unbroken apostolic succession, an
infallible chair, unity, sanctity, truth,
an inviolable priesthood, a holy sac
rifice and efficacious sacraments.
THE Protestant churches are but
of yesterday, without authority, whose
confused voices but protest their own
insufficiency, whose impotence almost
atones for their own sin of schism
by the way it sets off the might, the
majesty and the unity of Rome. In
contrast, the Catholic Church stands
where her Master placed her on the
rock, endowed with the prerogatives
and powers He gave her, and against
her the gates Of hell shall not prevail.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1917-03-31

The ninth month was about to close
when one morning on opening a Co
logne newspaper Mayer saw a notice
that fairly made him jump. 1t was the
announcement of the engagement Of
Henry Wendes and Charlotte Keller.
In an instant he felt cold chill
course through his veins, and at the
same time the hot blood mantled his
cheek as he realized the dastardly act
which Wendes was about to commit.
Rotten morality" he exclaimed, be-
side himself. 'And is this Justice?
Where now is his much-vaunted word
of honor? Where is his conscience?
Why, Q why does God tolerate such
human monsters? Engaged to Char
lotte Keller! But here is a girl who
fairly adores him, and who will die
heart-broken at this terrible news!
Let him legitimize his marriage to o
Fana, and not go and marry again.
This is what comes of abandoning
ones religious principles. And that
villain would have me believe that the
mere bond of love was sufficient to
make his marriage indissoluhle! This
is where his love has led him. 1t is
an outrage, a crime, murder. Oh, for
a reform in the, law that will allow
man and woman to live together like
animals! Indeed, we need more than
the bond of love- to keep in check
the brutal passions of man. 1t is nee
essary to bind him in chains riveted
by the divine law, otherwise after hav-
ing wantonly destroyed a pure and
noble flower he casts it aside thing
polluted. But this time, even If it
costs me my position, shall let Wen
des feel the full force of my indigna-
ton" Without moments hesitation
he fastened to the cable office.
That same day a cablegram couched
in the most upbraiding terms flashed
DER oceans and seas, like flaming
arrow to lay siege to the ungrateful
heart Of Henry Wendes.
At the same time Mayer took care
that o Fana be kept in complete ignor-
ance of this fact, fearing with reason,
that should she read this notice it
might cause a catastrophe.
THE Buddhist rosary is much used in
China Japan and India. 1t consists of
112 or sometimes 10S beads.
4When a. Buddhist goes to the tenn
ple to pray he buys a long. strip of col
ored paper on which is written a pray
er. He attaches this to a wheel, placed
in the temple for this purpose, and SO
many turns of the wheel mean SO many
PRAYERS When he is tired he burns the
paper in honor of that particular god. u
1t required all the tact of Mayer and
ITO be continued.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1917-03-31


Mayer ascertained through friends
the true state of affairs in Cologne,
and what he learned only went to con-
firm his sad forebodings Wendes was
gradually forgetting his love for O.
Fana, to follow up that of Charlotte
Keller. This knowledge threw Mayer
into the deepest fear and consterna-
ton, and he resolved to do all in his
power to prevent the terrible crime his
youthful employer was about to con-
summate. He therefore wrote long
and severe letter to Elizabeth Wendes,
giving her a detailed account of
Henry's civil marriage, and of the pres
ent state of. o Fana, remarking on the
serious fault her son would commit
and the terrible scandal that would en-
sue if, abandoning his Japanese wife,
instead of regulating his former mar
riage he contracted another. This
done, he continued to console the I'M
happy girl, and awaited the issue.
At the same time O Fanas sorrow
began gradually to grow less, or bet
ter, it changed nature. From being
violent and furious it became pensive
and taciturn. The poor mother spent
a great part of the day either by the
shore or praying in the temple. Pros
trated before the statue of Buddha,
she offered flowers and incense, and
burned countless strips of variously
colored paper, and then rising, she
went directly to the Catholic Church,
and prostrating herself to the ground
before a statue of the Sacred Heart,
she repeated the prayer she had be-
gun to recite from the first day she
had doubt as to Henry's return; 20,
Lord Jesus, if you are really the Son
of God, make my husband return to
his loving spouse She then returned
home, or went down to the beach,
where she wept long and bitterly.
Mayer did his utmost to console her,
but when from being rare the letters
ceased altogether, all hope seemed
| lost. O Fana was now a prey to the
most dismal thoughts. Religion could
| not help her, since she had sworn to
Sister Marie to receive baptism only
when she saw Henry once more at
her side.

THE GREEK scHisM.

-
The Greek schism began in S59,
when the Greek Emperor, Michael the
Drunkard as he is known IN history
at the instigation of his profilgate
uncle, Bardas, banished lgnatlus, the
Catholic Patriarch of Constantlnople'
and placed Photius, a layman, IN MS
place, says a writer in Truth.
The immoral Bardas had been en-
ragged by the Patriarchs protest
against his incest and impiety and
his public refusal to give him Holy
Communion, and the Emperor was
also displeased because Ignatius mad
refused to give the veil to the unW .l
ing Theodore, the Emperor mother
and daughters.
