A UNIQUE SHRINE
DEDICATED TO THE B. v. M. IN
CEYLON.

In the heart of the thickest jungle
of the island of Ceylon is one of the
most. unique shrines of the Blessed
Virgin. A simple statue of the Mother
of God standing on the gnarled
trunk of tree covered over with a
pretence of a shed attracts thousands
throughout the island. The feast of
the Visitation is the day chosen for
pilgrimage, and during the eight days
of the festival it is estimated that
fifty thousand persons surround the
almost inaccessible holy place. The
reason for the devotion of the people
is the earth which is blessed at this
time. The earth mixed with water has
a miraculous power, and those afflict-
ell with snake bits use it plentifully
1t is estimated that twenty thousand
people year die from poisonous
snake bites, hence the devotion of the
people to the Blessed Virgin, whom
they believe protects them. A curious
tradition obtains today. No Catholic
priest has ever been known to die of
a snake bite. ST. Francis Xavier
guards the missionaries, it is said
When he was laboring in India and
Japan he promised that no mission.
airy would ever die of the bite of a
serpent. The missionaries of the
island assert that there is no record
to the contrary, and st. Francis
Xavier today is protecting them and
faithfully keeping his pledge.

AN OLD ART
MOSAIC PAINTING FLoURIsHED
AMONG THE GREEK AND Ro-
MANS -PRACTICED IN ITALY
FOR OVER 1000 YEARS.

B Mosaic painting is Gone by lifting
together small bits of variously color
ed stone or glass SO as to form an
ornamental design, says ''The Ave
Maria" The Greeks were the first to
practise this art, and were most skill
full at the work. 1t is recorded that
one of their artisans once constructed
mosaic floor upon which he initiated
crumbs of bread so perfectly that a
servant once attempted to sweep
them up.
The art was probably known first
in the East, but for more than two
thousand years has been practised in
italy. The Romans used it in the inn
perial baths, perfect fragments of
which are still well preserved. The
Pompeiians were especially fond OF
mosaic, using it upon walls as well as
for pavings. Some of the greatest
and most beautiful paintings of the
world have been copied in mosaic, and
thus rendered imperishable.
The venetians did wonderful execu
ton with their little bits of stone
Indeed, it is said that they could not
have accomplished more with colors
and a brush. Many of the fragments
they used were no thicker than hair
The church and portico of st. Marks
in Venice are perpetual memorial Of
their wondrous skill and industry
During the Middle Ages the Creates
artists did not disdain to employ thcil
talents in the development of mosaic
designs, and there was no limit to The
expenditure of time or costly material
| Sometimes a paste compounded O.
glass and enamel is used instead O
stone. When dry, the surface i
rubbed and polished, which brings on
the beautiful coloring.
At some future time when peopl,
are weary of the wonders of cleo
| tricity and other marvels of today
they may turn to the matchless skill o
the Middle Ages, and revive the art
of a period when men loved the beau
tiful and had time to take pains.

Should children in the home refuse
mon expenses, it would be an act of
charity to them if the parents would
give them an opportunity to find as
good a boarding place at the same
cost elsewhere. 1t is sadly misplaced
kindness to furnish the necessaries of
life to son or daughter who is able to
work, but who refuses to assume any
part of the common household ex-
penses. Such kindness is in truth
cruelty and it implies a grave obliga-
ton towards the common Father of
all.
