THE CHURCH is THE BEST FRIEND
OF WORKING CLASSES.

Religion is the only middle term
that can reconcile the contradictory
elements of society-poverty with
riches, class with class, power with
weakness. She opens the strong cof-
fers of wealth and fills the bony hands
of want with plenty. She causes pow
erty to bless her benefactop and draws
the sting of envy from the heart of
the poor. Like the good Samaritan,
she pours the oil and wine of Chris
tan charity into the bleeding wounds
OF humanity. She cannot, it is true,
remove all sorrow from earth-for
this is a valley of tears, a land of
eXile-and the abuse of free-will must
always prove prolific source of
misery. But she has always an anti
dote at hand for those passions from
which so large a part of social in
equality and wretchedness result, and
she lightens every cross by pointing
to the crown which attends it. And
as to that suffering and poverty which
proceed from unavoidable accident, or
mental and physical inequality, the
Church looks upon such misfortunes
as blessings in disguise. Blessed are
the poor; for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven Blessed are the mourners;
for they shall be comforted!' Toeher
the poor, the working classes, are the
especial friends and representatives of
| Him Who was born in stable, earned
| His bread in the sweat of His brow,
and died naked on a Cross. Thus are
labor and poverty ennobled, and the
| poor made. content with their lot The
rich are commanded to act the part of
| Gods almoners, and of stewards to-
wards their less fortunate brethren, un-
der the terrible penalty which attaches
to the aVarice of Dives. Rich and poor
are alike taught that the highest end
of life is not mere material wealth
or enjoyment, but eternal beatitude in
the world to come and that virtue,
which can be gained in every state of
life, is of. infinitely more value than
gold or precious stones.
Isl The Church. levels, but she levels
1 upward, on the. grand lines of Chris

RELIGION AND UNBELiEF.

All around us are men and women
of the half-educated class who are in
different to the Christian religion
Some deny Christianity openly, others
shield their uubelief under high
sounding pretexts Why is this so?
What is the psychology of unbelief
or infidelity?
Sometimes men tell us that ire
ligion, that is having no religion or
belonging to no church, is the result
Of human progress, that reason and
science dictate such course nova
days. What conceit it is to claim that!
AS if unbelievers had monopoly OF
reason and science, as if Christian
philosophers did not possess at least
as much knowledge and mental power
as infidels!
1t is true that sometimes the sec,
ond rate scientists and philosophers
the half-educated graduates of our
colleges and universities, talk and act
as if their superior knowledge and
wisdom forced them to be atheists
and agnOstics and unbelievers. The
really great scientists and philoso-
pliers, however, the leaders of science
of all ages, including the present
have been and are devout practical
Christians. For proof ofr.this state
ment | can refer to the best author
tiles. That effectively disposes of the
silly and ignorant plea that reason
and science dictate irreligion and I'M
belief.
The chief causes of irreligion are
ignorance and q corrupt heart The
majority of persons, especially among
the so-called educated classes, are
densely ignorant on subjects OF re
ligiOn. A noted bigot may be an
ignoramus in religion. This ignOr
ance is vicious and culpable because
it could be removed so easily. Often
these people are too lazy spiritually
to study and investigate the all-im
portant claims of religion.
Another cause of irreligion is a cor
rupt heart. Our Lord said Men love
darkness rather than the light, fol-
their works are evil"

ROOM ENOUGH FOR ALL.

Don't crowd and push on the march OF
life,
Or tread on each others toes,
For the world at best, in it's great un.
rest,
Is hard enough as it goes.
Oh, why should the strong oppose the
weak
Till the latter go to the wall?
On this earth of ours, with it's thorns
and flowers.
There is room enough for all.
If tagging brother falls behind
And drops from the toiling band,
If fear and doubt put his soul to rout
Then lend him a helping hand.
Cheer up his heart with words of hope
Nor season the speech with gall,
In the great highway, on the busiest
day,
There's room enough for all.
If man with the tread of a pioneer
Steps out on your track ahead,
Don't grudge his start with an envious
heart,
For the mightiest once were led.
But grid your loins for the coming
day
Let nothing your heart appa1;
Catch up if you can with the forward
man,
There is room enough for all.
And if, by doing your duty well,
You should get to lead the van,
Brand not yonr name with q deed o
shame,
But come out an honest man.

THE DIVINITY OF THE MASS.

THE only genuine thing of our
time" said Carlyle of the Mass; the
man who spent his life seeking reaIi-
ties, and the last person from whom
such tribute to the great Mystery
would be expected.
Walter Pater, another whose views
had little in sympathy with the Holy
Sacrifice, spoke of it as the never
ending drama" That it is, the central
act of all the ages to which led up all
that happened before it's institution
and to which revert all that has hap,
pened since,
1T is the Mass that Matters pro
claimed the heresies growing out of
Luther's revolt; matters" for them
meaning that it held Catholics stead
fast in their faith, and for Catholics
that it was the supreme act Of relig'
ion without which it would be vain to
attempt to live through Christ, in
Christ and with Christ as the very
principle Of life.
How genuine the Church regards
this neVer-ceaSing drama OF redemp
| ton is plain from the words and cere
monies with which it is performed
Every one Of them expresses sincere
and profound conviction of the divine
reality of the Sacrifice. First of all
| note how naturally the Church has
chosen the words of the Mass largely
from Scripture. Only the word OF
God is fit for this august Sacrifice
Hence the proper parts of the Mass
the Introit, Gradual, Offertory and
Communion, with the Epistle and Cos
lpel, are all from Sacred Scripture. Sc
is much Of the language of the Can
On; and SO also are many Of the terms
and phrases of the Collects, Secret and
Post-communiOns.
This choice Of the words of the Mass
from the book which contains Gods
revelation to man is Of itself proof
of the faith of the Church in The di.
vinity of the Sacrifice. AS all human
history, SO all divine revelation
centers in the supreme Sacrifice OF
Christ on Calvary, of which the Mass
is the renewal as well as the memo
rial. Only the. words of revelation,
therefore, should be used to express
the preparation and consummation OF
this great mystery.

THE WHY OF MIRACLES IN PAR.
TIcULAR CHURCHES.

Kindly say why a saint, under
churches all over the world, exercises
miracles only in particular churches
or countries.
Commenting ~on the foregoing let
ter, which he had received, the Rev.
E. r. Hull, S. j., editor of "The Elk
aminer,' Bombay, wrote as follows:
when we come to tho gratiae graf
is datae, as they are all called there
is simply no end TO questions Why
should some saints work no miracles
at all? Why should some work this
kind and some another? Why should
some miracles be so ordinary in their
manner and circumstances and some
so extraordinary? How is it that some
saints specialize in sore Threats, and
some in sore eyes, and some in tenn
poral faVors and some in purely spir-
itual ones? Why should some martyrs
have been saved from fire and from
boiling oil and from lions, and yet
finally succumb to beheading by the
sword? Why should St Winifred's
we'll work cures, while st. Bridget's
well does not? Why should some
saints work miracles during life and
others only after their death? Why
chould the blood of countless early
martyrs dry up forever, while that Of
st. Januarius liquifies every year at
Naples-or almost every year, and
why does it fail some years to liquify
at all? And so on, and so on, to the
end of the volume.
There is one short and simple an
sWer which is as conclusive as it is
| unsatisfying. Quia Deus sic Walt
because God so wills.
"TheolOgically q miracle is defined
as something unusual, beyond or
above the scope of nature, which
serves as a sign to strike home the
reality of the supernatural and the
| unseen. Therefore miracles must not
| be too common. They must not be-
come usual. They must not occur as
a matter of course. That is perhaps
| the reason why God allows them TO
happen just in this Or that place, at
| this or that time and not more fire.

WEIGHING ONES WORDS.

A popular song now going the
rounds has for it's refrain: I'm sor-
ry | made you cry 1t is simple
little piece, but it appeals to the hu-
man heart because there are few per-
sons who, at some time in their lives,
have not been responsible for tears
shed by those they love best 1t
should be q warning to everyone,
prompting people to walk more soft
ly before those whose friendship is
more precious than wealth or fame.
One of the saddest facts of human
life is that each one kills the thing he
loves" not through intention, but
through thoughtless deeds, words or
looks. Some persons consider it ri
diculous to weigh their words, espe-
cially when speaking TO friends who
know them we'll and who, they take it
for granted are ever ready TO forgive
them for th0ughtless words that
wound 1t is a sad mistake. Ones
friends may indeed forgive him, but it
is difficult for one TO forgive himself
for having brought sorrow to another
The tears which the unthinking man
brings to the eye of a child or the
woman he loves will turn to fire and
find their way into his own tortured
soul .....,

as. ORIGINAL or COPY.

Objection: The Gospels which we
have are copies (reprintsl; but the
originals exist no more.
Answer: Also of the CLASSICAL writ.
ings there are no original manuscripts,
but only copies. But he who would on
that account doubt the commences OF
the classics would not be refuted by
the men of science, but simply laugh
cd at or ignored. And still the copies
OF the classics (both absolutely and
relatively to the time of their writ
ing) are of much more recent date
than the copies of the Gospels.
The Codex Vaticanus contains the
New. Testament almost completely
and the Codex Sinaiticus completely
both are of the 4th century; from the
9Th century we still have 10 manu-
scripts, and from the 9Th to the 10th
centuries &c.
Prof. Nestle. the. learned Protestant
orientalist and biblical scholar, writes
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1918-02-23

money should be taken by member
Of his family, especially if it is for
a good purpose, than by a common
thief. On this ground, some authori-
ties say that in thefts from parents
a double quantity is required for grave
matter. Also when a number Of small
theftS are committed, which in the
aggregate amount to grave matter,
larger sum is required for q mortal
sin than when it is all taken at once.
For the loss is not felt SO keenIy, and
so the owner is not SO Unwilling.
If, in committing small thefts, a
person has the intention of acquiring
| tain that he sins grievously from
the very first, on account Of his in
tentiOn. AS to those who have no
| fixed intention, but who steal little
whenever occasion, offers, and who
make a habit Of stealing, they do not
sin grievously each time, but grave
sin will be committed when grave
matter Ca large amount is reached
| for these different petty thefts Co
alesce, if not too widely separated,
and form one mortal act Of injustice.
| Finally, unjust cooperation is COM
mitted in thefts when a person buys
goods which he knows to be stolen.
| In this case the purchaser becomes
an accOmplice in the theft. He is OBJ
| liged to restore the article to the real
owner, Or at least the price OF the
article he already consumed. If q
person buys stolen goods in good faith,
i. e., not knowing that they are stolen,
but afterwards discovers this fact,
he is obliged to restore them to the
real proprietor, except the purchase
was made at a public sale, because
then the civil law authorizes the
buyer to demand. from the original
proprietor the price named for the
goods. ...
Ill-gotten GooGs, generally, do not
make for prosperity. "Thy curse
shall come to the honse Of the thief,
and it shall be consumed" Zach
V, A. And what shall prosperity
arising from stolen goods profit if
the soul of the thief is lost for all
eternity? The thief really barters his
eternal happiness for riches that may
slip from his hands at any moment,
land which he must leave behind when
summoned by death to the judgment
seat of the Adjust God.

For no product of the human
mind in antiquity have we such an
abundance of manuscripts as for the
New Testament. Our classical philolo-
gists would be glad if they were in
the same favorable condition with
Homer or Sophocles, Plato or Aristo-
tie, Cicero or Tacitus, as theologians
oldest extant complete manuscript OF
Homer dates back to the 18th century,
only few papyrus-fragments date
back to the AleXandrian era. All that
we have of Sophocles we owe to sim
gle manuscript from the 8th or 9Th
century. Of the Greek New Tcsta-
ment we have till now 1929 manu-
scripts; a systematic search even in
Europe, but surely in Asia and Egypt
would add some more" Introduction
to the Greek New Testament, End ed,
1899, p. 33.)
The oldest manuscripts Of the elias
sizes Virgil and Terence date from 4th
or 9Th centuries, of Gaius from the 9Th,
of Horace from the Sth, Of Caesar and
Plato from the 9Th, OF Tacitus from the
9Th to 18th, of Homer and HerOdotus
from the 10th centuries.
And still in spite Of this no one
ever thinks of doubling the genuine
ness of these classics.-Whilst the
manuscripts of Aeschylus, Sophocles
Euripides and Thucyides are from II
to II centuries younger than their
original writer's, the CodeX Vaticanus
is at most only centuries younger
than the Evangelists. g..
