CARDINAL FARLEY.
Is Out of Danger But His Age May
Cause Relapse.

Late reports from the bedside of
Cardinal Farley OF New York, who
has been critically i'll With pneumonia
at Mamroneck, N. Y. state that the
prelate is now out of danger. His
age, however. makes a relapse pos
sible according to his physicians.
The esteem in which Cardinal Far
ley is held was evidenced when a
poorly clad girl of 10 was seen kneel-
ing on the grass beside the road.
When asked what she was doing, she
replied in a surprised tone: Praying
for the Cardinal. l was here yester-
day, too"
Special prayers were offered for the
recovery of the Cardinal in the New
York and Brooklyn churches Sunday.

THE SEPTEMBER INTENTION.

The intention recommended by His
Holiness Pope Benedict Nv for men,
bers of the League of the Sacred Heart
during September is the Baptism of
all children.
"Unless man be born again of
water and the Holy Ghost he cannot
enter the Kingdom of God" The
Catholic Church teaches with divine
authority that according to these
words of our Lord no child who dies
before coming to the age of reason
can go to Heaven to enjoy the beatific
vision of God, unless it has received
the Sacrament of Baptism, or suffered
martyrdom.
By the institution of the Sacrament
of Baptism God has provided in the
New Law for the bestowal of sancti-
flying grace, even on children. This
grace they lack on account of origi-
nal sin, from the stain of which our
Blessed Lady alone was exempted
AS such large proportion of the hui
man race dies in infancy it is mani
fest that care for the Baptism of all
children is of the highest Importance.
How sad it is to think of the count
less children born of pagan parents
and dying almost all without Bap-
tism! Even among people who call
themselves Christians, many millions
of children can never see the face of
God. Death comes upon them so often
through accident or crime even before
birth. Others are robbed Of this
priceless grace by the ignorance or
negligence or bad will of their par
ents. And this is true, not merely
among Professionals, but even in coun-
tries that hitherto have had some
claim to be called Catholic.
What can we do to procure the
grace of Baptism for such unfOrtu-
nate children? One means that all
can employ is prayer, and our Holy
Father asks us to bear it in mind, es-
pecially during this month. Another
is cooperation with the work of the
Association of tho Holy Childhood,
which aims by prayer and aims to
save the souls of pagan children. Sim
liar zeal can be exercised by Catho-
lies in urging all parents to have their
children baptized as soon as it is pos
sible.

FRENCH NATION HONORS Sis
TIERS OF ST. JOSEPH.

News has come to the Sisters of
st. Joseph in New Orleans that seven
teen members of their order have been
decorated with the highest honors of
war by the French government.
The Sisters are in the very thick of
the present conflict. They not only
turned over their convent as a hos
pital to the government, but went
forth upon the field of battle to min
lister to the wounded and dying, and
for unparalleled acts of bravery and
heroism seventeen of their number
have been cited in the report of the
commanding officer and decorated by
the government.
The Sisters have eight ambulances
which are in constant touch with the
battlefields and stations to which
wounded are removed and sent thence
to the hospitals.

THE QUIET WOMAN.

Other things being equal the quiet
and reserved business woman who
though friendly with ALL says compar-
atively little while engaged in bust
ness, is the one most likely to reach
the top of the ladder. Nor need op-
portunities for sympathy and kindly
assistance to fellow toilers be laid
aside.
Talk only when you must, and
then to the point" is good and safe
rule for all business women to follow.
A woman's wit and her social instinct
often leads her into mistakes that her
common sense should correct sharp
ly. Retain the merry heart, the JOY
GUS outlook, the friendly IMPULSE al
ways If you would keep young and OF
value to yourself and your fellows,
but sternly repress any tendency to
social chatter downtown.

FOR FREEDOMS CAUSE.
Irish Mothers Send a MESSAGE Across
the Ocean.

American mothers of Irish blood
whose boys have gone forth to fight
for the cause of freedom and democ-
racy for the nations of the world, sent
message last week to the mothers
of the boys fighting in the ranks of
the allied nations.
This message was voiced by the
mothers Of the Ladies' Auxiliary, An
cient Order of Hibemians, represent
ing 10000 women in the United States,
the national board of which was in ses-
sion in Washington last week. The
letter to the allied mothers is as fol-
lows:
whereas, the militaristic leaders of
Central Europe have forced on the
democracies OF the world the issue of
worlds supremacy, through the bar
barous test of steel and bullets; and
"Whereas, the sons of the democra-
cies OF North America have enlisted in
this fight to help the allied democra-
cies Of Europe and are gallantly, glor-
iously and triumphantly giving their
lives and shedding their blood in this
great war which is being fought thou.
sands of miles from their homes and
mothers; therefore, be it
Resolved, that we, representing the
mothers of the Ladies Auxiliary of the
Ancient Order of Hibernians of
America, whose sons constitute large
portion of the American army and
navy, and who are now fighting
in the ranks of the allied forces to do
all they can to safeguard and protect,
as only mothers know how, our Ameri-
can boys.
ITO the mothers of Ireland, where
so many of our American boys have
from time to time found rest, recre-
alton and respite from peril, we desire
to send a particular message We are
grateful to them for the motherly care
and solicitude with which they have
surrounded our boys, and we feel we
do not have to appeal for a continual
ton of the hospitality for which Irish
mothers the world over are noted, for
we we'll know they will continue that
gentle, motherly care to all American
boys, so that they who are so far from
home will not be too lonesome for the
mothers they have left in America
who are praying with the mothers of
the world democracies. God prosper,
guard and protect our boys"

"SELF-DETERMINATION."

ireland Now Gagged by the New
Rule Of viceroy French.
Freedom of the press in Ireland
has been extinguished by the latest
decree of Field Marshal French, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland, says a late
London dispatch.
Any newspaper that publishes any
report of any speech delivered at any
meeting for the holding of which a
police permit has not been obtained
will be prosecuted under the Coercion
Act, the editor and publisher being
liable to heavy fine and Imprisonment.
Any Kind Of Talk Barred.
Thus any Nationalist Member of
Parliament who addresses his constit.
uents, no mater what the character
of his speech, if he has not humbly
applied beforehand to the local pc.
liceman for a permit, will be prosecu.
ted himself, and any newspaper pub.
fishing report of that speech will
also be prosecuted
This order is not directed against
seditious or disloyal speeches only,
but against all speeches that are not
licensed by the police.
The Nationalists refuse to ask for
police permits to fulfill their first con-
stitutional duty, and Dublin Castle,
being unable in all cases to prevent
the speeches from being delivered,
strives by this abolition of the free
dom of the press to make good the
failure of their attempts to abolish
public discussion.
Favors Sim Feiners.
This decree is all in favor of the
Stun Feiners and Orangemen, as the
former carry on by means of secret
propaganda, while the Orangemen
will not need speeches when their
opponents are silenced by the Gov
eminent.
1t has given the constitutional
movement in Ireland-as is undoubt-
eddy intended-its coup de grace.
Nor is it likely to have given much
of a FLIP to voluntary recruiting.
But as the policy of Viceroy French
and Irish Secretary Short develops,
Ireland is becoming convinced that

they don't want voluntary recruiting
to succeed, but want to force con-
scription at all costs, and therefore
produce conditions in which any sort
of Home Rule will become impossible.
This is the self-determination prin.
ciple as applied by the British Gov.
eminent to Ireland.

this trip in seventeen days; in other
cases it has takem forty-two days, and
sixty per cent of this mail makes this

The girl whose parents are not liv-

house, should widely pass by many
dress fads Of the hour. Common
sense tells us that silk stockings and
silk lingerie are out of the reach of a
young woman whose weekly salary is
$40 or $12. Hence, any girl alone,
whose position is modestly paying
one, should not try to copy the style
of the young woman to whom money
is no object. True, ones appearance
is an asset in the business life Of to-
day, yet the average girl can keep
neatly attired and we'll groomed with
out throwing her slender wages away
on useless furbelows, that after hav.

Young men depending solely upon
themselves should make it a point
to deposit certain portion of their
salary weekly. no matter how small.
This they can do if they wisely re-
solve to attend the theater less, or
give up something that they can very
we'll get along without When one is
commanding a good salary, wearing
smart frocks and enjoying countless
friendships, life is a truly delightful
affair; but with the coming reverses
how quickly ones world changes. At
such a time the smart acquaintances

August Is at Gethsemani, the we'll

Brother Vincent, who was in his
10th year of his age, and the 10th of
his religious life, was known to many
visitors, lay and clerical, at the noted
abbey, until about two years ago,
wher his health became impaired
Added to this duty was that of post
master at "Trappist p o." where
mail for the abbey, as we'll as for the

he met and greeted visitors, endeared
him to all with whom he came iii con-
