PLATING
THE THREE NEWMANs.

The most famous of modern 'retrac.
man made in February, 1843, of all
the hard things which | had said
against the Church of Rome" 1t is
not generally known, perhaps, that
this celebrated manifesto was pub
lished, not in form of letter or news
paper article, but as an advertisement,
in the Oxford Conservative Journal.
Further, it was not signed; to the
casual reader it appeared as the con-
fessiOn of an anonymous Anglican
clergyman, but there were illusions in
it (such as to my history of the Ari-
ans") which told the understanding
reader clearly who the author was,
and in the University, at all events,
the document was never attributed
to anyone else. The writer's brother
Francis had the audacity to declare
that it was forgery wrought by
some cunning priest in pursuance of
plot to outwit and entrap the simple
Vicar of st. Mary's! Yet he processes
to have known all the while, since
1888, from reading the hymns ]. H. N.
had written in the Mediterranean, that
his brother was really a Roman"
Indeed, among the curiosities of liter
ature which new Isaac D'Israeli may
catalogue, there is no more extraor-
binary effusion than the little volume
which Francis published in 1890, with
the direct object of discrediting his
| illustrious brother. 1t was almost or
quite the last of long series of books
covering an astonishing variety of
| subjects -translations of the Had and
of Horace, mathematical treatises,
ethical works, dissertation on diet

and Essays towards Church of the
Future. His literary style is confused
and inelegant, and though he had no
small store of learning, it was nothing
compared with his stock of prejudice!
| In truth, he is a Wearying writer.
There was third brother, Charles,
| sometime clerk in the Bank Of Eng
land, who thought it his duty to
write letters of advice to the directors
of that Institution, so they could not
keep him. and in the event was de-
lpendent on his brother for his sup
port to his dying day" He had affini-
| ties with the celebrated Socialist Of a
hundred years ago, Robert Owen, and
tried to originate a New Moral

"cLERlcALIsM" AND "LAIcIzING."

The word "clericalism" is being
gradually introduced into Canada. 1t
is just as we'll for Catholics to be
ready to repudiate this label, which is
the manufacture of European infidels,
gladly grabbed up by bigoted Protest
ants. The political aim and object
of European infidelity is what they
call laicizing education and all else
that the state can control; for in
stance, public charity, hospitals, etc.
When a European infidel says @lai-
CHE" he means divorce from reIig-
ion.' The course of European infidel
politics has been first to exclude the
idea of moral responsibility from
public life and legislation, which they
call ''the separation of Church and
State'' second, the confiscation of
Church property, which they call the
laicizing of Church property: third,
the exclusion of the name and idea of
God from the schools; fourth, the in
PRODUCTION of infidelity into the minds
of the young.
The whole damnable and diabolical
procedure is called the making of a
lay State, or, laicizing the State OBJ
serve, there is not in all this any con-
flict between different religious. It
is a straight fight between God and
Christianity on the one side and Sa.
tan and hell on the other.

IF YOU THINK 1T, SAY 1T.

If anything pleases your eye or pal.
ate, or adds to your enjoyment of
life in any way, say so. 1t is not
fair to expect anyone to work for your
pleasure and then take it for granted
that you are pleased, when perhaps,
neither words, looks or actions ex-
press anything of the kind. 1t is bad
enough to expect grown people to
understand your feelings, but in mercy
to the children do give them the word
of praise which their efforts to help
or please you deserve.
1t is not only right but good policy
as we'll to know this. You have only
to watch the face of child when it
fastened to help you; give it the
word of praise or thanks which it de-
serves and watch the lighting up of
the little face, then take note of it's
actions and very soon you will see
that it is watching for an opportu-
nifty to do something else for you;
and if you ask the favor how will
ingly the little feet and hands do the
bidding. On the other hand take their
efforts as a matter of course and see
the face show how keenIy the neglect
is felt.
While human nature remains what
it is, a word of appreciation will never
be lost on old or young and is one
of the best paving investments which
can be made. Some say, Il don't care
whether they like it or not" but that
is all nonsense for man, woman or
child; we every one of us feel our
heart grow warm under merited
praise, and if we get little more of
it than we deserve, which rarely hap
pens in this world, we try to deserve
more next time.

Proof of the order which prevailed on
the Tuscania is given by the landing
of two typhoid and two pneumonia
cases without bad effect.
Forty of the survivors were taken to
hospitals. In the majority of cases
they are suffering from injuries as
result of accidents in the lowering of
lifeboats or in consequence of sliding
down ropes.
The survivors are proud of the be-
havior of the only two women on the
Tuscania. They went down a rope in
