nence, only suitable indeed to monas-
teries and the dark ages. The world
should know that it is feasting and not
fasting that Injuries the health. Pen
ance promotes sense of genuine joy.
The cheerfulness of monks, nuns and
holy persons may be rightfully attrib-
uted to self-denial How sure, serene
and bright is the happiness of those
souls who dwell within the hallowed
convent walls, away from the vain,
empty and fleeting enjoyment of the
world outside. Happiness and holiness
are twin sisters. Our Lord declared.
unless you do penance, you shall all
likewise perish"
Religion, the sole foundation of real
happiness, unites man with God, alien
ated from Whom life becomes chaos
and the soul languishes. Man, created
by God, belongs to God and in Him
can he only find true peace and hap
piness. God never intended that man
should be unhappy. Men are miser-
able because they violate Gods COM
mandments. Nothing can possibly re-
place God in the Soul. The restless
heart, made by God, Graves for some
thing better than mundane things.
Thou hast made us for Thyself," says
st. Augustine, 'and our heart is rest
less, until it shall find rest in Thee" "
Melancholy, indeed will monopolize
the soul, dispossessed Of God. who
hath resisted Him and hath had
peace says Holy Job.

HUMAN HAPPINESS

LETTER WRITTEN BY RIGHT
REVEREND TIMOTHY coRBETT,
BISHOP OF cRooNsToN, MINN.

Happiness poor mortals must posi-
lively have, either actually or in hope,
the desire of the attainment of which
pervades all human actions. No earth
-ly joy can appCaSe, nor alternate the
yearnings of humanity for the posses
sion of happiness. unhappy man that
| am, who shall delivcr me from the
body of this death eXclaims St Paul.
The entire creation fails to afford ra-
tional creatures permanent peace. The
worlds perishable goods, tieeting al
lurements and empty amusements
prove to be deluSiVe, unsatisfactory
and false for the realization of genu-
inc happiness.
The absolute impotency of wealth
to procure yeritable happiness, no
thoughtful man will presume to gain
say, though the acquisition thereof en-.
hances the modern world. Men praise,
reverence, yea, even worship riches.
No matter what character a man
bears, if he only happens to command
wealth, by which the century meas

quick, therefore, ever haunts world

The mental and physical exhaustion,
expended in acquiring and retaining
wealth, furnishes rather meager COM
pensation in it's possession. Shattered
health brought on, thereby, Oftimes
mars the real enjoyment of things of
earth. Slender is the satisfaction the
rich obtain, and especially at the for
lorn thought of being forced one day
by the cold hand of death to bid an
eternal farewell to all terrestrial pos
sessions and perhaps to the very OBJ.
jects that damned their immortal
souls. The thought must sadden their
heart that their hard earnings may be
bitterly disputed over, even in court
and that offspring frequently misuse
their inheritance to their own tenn

evil" teaches st. Paul.
The prevailing extravaganza re

bilious, mortals struggle pitifully to as

styles, costly dress, elaborate furni
