Not long ago q thrilling feat of
bravery was exhibited by one of our
boys, who charged trench alone
and captured many. Other things
being equal-the strongest men sur
vive, and that is why our army sur
geons are careful to pick out the
men with good lung expansion, keen
eyes, and good liver and kidneys.
Our men on the firing line represent
the pick of American youth. One
in four of our boys at home was re-
jected because Of physical def
cheney. Many times the kidneys
were to blame, but such conditions
can now be overcome.
If we wish to prevent old age
coming on too soon, or if we want
to increase our chances for a long
life, DR.. Pierce of the Surgical In
stitute, Buffalo, n. Y, says that we
should drink plenty of water daily
between meals. Then procure at
the nearest drug store Anuric (dou-
BILE strength). This Anuric drives
the uric acid out and cures back
ache and rheumatism, as well as
kidney trouble.
If you want a trial package, send
Doctor Pierce ten cents.

CARDINAL GIBBONS.

What was expected to be one of
the greatest ecclesiastical celebra-
lions ever held in this country, the
episcopal golden jubilee of His
Eminence James Cardinal Gibbons,
and was to have taken place tomor-
row in the Cathedral of the Assump-
ton of the Blessed Virgin Mary at
Baltimore. has been postponed in
definitely because of conditions and
the prevalence of serious illness
throughout the country. This &C
ton was taken at the express wish
of the venerable Cardinal, who ex-
pressed himself as believing that the
present was not just the proper time
for public jubilating. OF course
there will will be a religious OBJ
servance of the jubilee, but this will
be without ostentation or public dis
play. The illustrious dean of the
American hierarchy was consecrated
Bishop fifty years ago, on August
l6. but it was decided not to hold
the celebration until the fall. Car
dinal Gibbons is now the senior
member of the College of Cardinals.
He was the youngest Bishop at the
Council of the Vatican in 1870 and
he is now the sole survivor of that
historic assemblage. Cardinal Glib
bons is revered by all true Ameri-
cans, who pray that he may remain
with us for years to come.

TERMS OF PEACE.

Several of the nations allied with
Germany are making overtures fol
peace. There is no need of any
preliminaries on their part. The
way is open and plainly marked out
for them. If ever man made his
position clear to even the most
obtuse, President Wilson did in his
last word letting the world know
what America is fighting for. The
President told the nations nothing
new, nothing but what he has told
them from the moment we entered
the war. He declares that the Gov
eminent of the United States in
her peace demands stands on the
firm basis of elemental justice. He
will brook no compromise of prin-
ciples that are eternally right. He
makes it plain that he is speaking
not only to Germany but also to
our associates in the war. To the
enemy he gives the terms of peace,
unconditional surrender not only of
arms but of all selfish aims. To
those that are associated with us in
the war he says that they must
come into the peace conference with
clean hands, without hope of terri
torial or commercial spoils of war.
There must be no war after the
war, no secret treaties or under
standings. The nations must deal
their cards above board and play the
game square. This procurement
a new hope for humanity. 1t
may seem bold. but the president of
the United States has right TO
make the terms of peace. He could
claim that right because his nation
Is making victory possible. He does
claim 1t because his terms are die
.ated by the eternal principles of
light. And every advocate of peace
With justice stands behind him.

PREPARATION.

One of the big questions to be
settled in the discussion of ultimate
peace terms, as the True Voice
points out. will be the matter Of
reparation due by Germany. There
is the violation of Belgium to be
atoned for. For four years North
ern France has been devastated by
the invader. Italy has also suffered
but not to the same extent. The
evacuation of Belgium Will not undo
the crime of 1914. which has been
continued for four years; neither
will a retreat from France repair
the destruction that has been
wrought there by the ruthless in
vader. Where injustice has been
done the church teaches that the
first condition OF forgiveness is
restitution and PREPARATION. One who
retains possession of ill-gotten goods
OF who refuses to make good as faI
as he is able the damage he has
caused in vain would seek absoiution
Of his sin. Just as the individual
must restore as prerequisite for

PETER PENCE COLLECTION.

The following appeal has been
issued in behalf of the annual Peter
Pence collection:
The pressing needs of the SOW
ereign Pontiff make it imperative
that an extra effort be made on our
part to meet them and to afford
comfort to his paternal heart.
bruised as it is with the woes of
the warning nations. The offering
to the Holy Father on this occasion
will be a proof of our sincere 10y
atty, filial love and genuine devo-
ton to the Vicar of Christ. The
burdens and obligations have
grown increasingly great and the
nations that formerly supported
generously the varied activities of
the Holy See are now reduced to
dire necessity because of the war
that famed over the entire con-
tinent of Europe. In these days,
made terrible with burning hate,
with bloodshed and with slaughter,
the figure of Benedict XIV. stands
forth as the savior of the nations.
With vision that sweeps over the
world he sees the necessity of sub
stituting moral force for heartless
greed in the guidance of the worlds
affairs.
Within the past six months our
own dear country has been forced
to enter the conflict and American
Catholics have trooped to the colors,
ready and anxious to offer their
lives for the flag under whose pro-
tecting folds they have enjoyed
liberty and the peaceful pursuit of
happiness. They have answered the
trumpet call promptly and gener-
ously, because they love America
with sacred and an enduring af-
lection, based on the teachings of
the church which mould and
strengthen the moral fibre of the
patriots heart. But while we thank
God that church and country are
united today, as they have always |
been in the souls of our Catholic |
people, with an unbreakable bond |
Of loyalty and devotion, we can not |
lose sight of the figure of the |
Father of the Faithful, who offers
5olace and counsel to all alike.
These words are truer now If
lnything than they were when writ
en- one year ago. They speak with
IN appealing force that will go
straight to the hearts and souls
hat will listen to its touching call
o come generously to the assist
nee of the Holy Father to enable

forgiveness, so nations must make
reparation for the wrongs they have
done. That is why Belgium and
France and even England speak of
the necessity of exacting reparation
from Germany at the peace table.
They know well enough the Catholic
principles of justice and they insist
upon the application of these to the
conditions which have been brought
about by the war. In this they are
right. But the difficulty will be for
Germany to make reparation. A
hundred years would not be long
enough for her to repair all the un-
just damage she has caused in this
war. When penitent sinner in
the tribunal of penance is unable to
make restitution at once a promise
is exacted that he do so as far as
he can and as soon as he can, and
not until that promise has been
given is dissolution given. We rather
suspect that this is to be the case
with Germany. The nations will
have to rely on her promise to make
restitution to Belgium and to
France. When she comes to the
peace table she will have little left
with which to restore. We assume
that the day of peace is not so very
far off. But far or near, the duty
of reparation will rest upon Ger
many whenever the peace conference
assemblies. The only matter for dis
cussion will be the extent of the
duty and Germany's power of full
filling it.

PEACE WITH VALUE.

Cardinal Bourne, Archbishop of
Westminster, recently dedicated q
war shrine at the old pro-Cathedral,
the Church of Our Lady of Victories
at Kensington, in London. In the
course of his address the Cardinal
gave a sturdy lead regarding the
issue of the war. His Eminence
said in part: BE not misled by
some of the pernicious things that
are occasionally said and written
today about peace. Often we are
told that 1t is the greatest blessing
God can bestow, but 1t is not unless
founded upon justice. Do not be
carried away by formulate, such as
mo indemnities and no annexation, >
because justice may demand indem-
mites and annexations, and to get
peace without justice is to get peace
that would not last, and is not
worth having"

FIGHTING IRIsH sIxTy-NINTH.

Have you heard the news from far
off France,
It's fit to make you shout,
How the Yankee doughboy met the
And turned his front about?
Have you read the deeds of valor,
That is, those the papers tell,
How the Sammies used the bayonet
And sent many Hun to hell?
Then If you're not pro-German
God knows you can't deny
The deeds of the lighting Irish"
Brought tears into your eye.
It seems but only yesterday
When those boys sailed DER the
sea
To fight for peace and freedom,
To die for you and me.
And 1t seems but only yesterday
When the communique came in
That the Huns had met them down
at Toul,
And the Huns, their ranks we're
thin.
And now, great God, we've found
them,
In the brunt of the German drive,
Where the Prussian Helots swarmed
at them
Like bees from out hive.
So long as history's page is turned.
Which will be to the end of
time
So long will patriots tell the tale
How the Irish held the line.
They'll tell of brave McKenna
And how he fought and died
For the land that gave him freedom,
With brave Riley by his side.
How great Moynahan. the Major,
With gentlemanly air,
Was like a fiend of hell let loose
Before he got his share.
OF Donovan and Stacum,
Whom hostile bullets found,
For whose every drop of blood a
score
OF Prussians Rugged the ground.
They'll tell of gallant Downing,
That Lieutenant of fame,
Who led his men across the Ourcq
And ne'er came back again.
How the long grass of Villeseur Fere
Was dyed thick with their blood,
For the Yanks said: "You shall not
pass"
And the Prussians said they
would.
And then there's Father Duffy,
The chaplain true and brave,
Who urged the men to fight and die
The Stars and Stripes to save.
And hundreds of the "Sixty-ninth,"
Those lads who fought so we'll,
Are dead and nevermore will wake
Their glorious tales to tell.
But so long as the desert air
Is heated by the sun
And so long as the battles
OF the righteous shall be won.
80 long shall the laurels
OF that gallant Irish corps
Be cherished by all Yankeedom
Amongst its fighting lore.

VOTE FOR sHERLEY.

In every section of the United
States the sentiment is growing that
men should be sent to Congress and
the Senate who will be loyal to
President Wilson and his war poll
cies, and the people of Jefferson
county should fall in line by giving
Swagar Sherley decisive majority
In the coming election. Congress
man Sherley as Chairman of the
Appropriations Committee is closely
allied with the President and his
war Cabinet and not to return Mr..
sherley to his post would be a
reflection on the loyalty of Louis

Few persons purchasing the pres
ent issue of Liberty Loan bonds
realize that If they continue to hold
the bonds to maturity the total
amount of incorporated interest
they will receive from every 800
bond will be approximately only
SIS less than the original 800 they
paid for the bond. This, however,
is the case, as the bonds bear Az
per cent. interest and run to 1888,
twenty years. Each years interest
is s4.25. so that at the end of
twenty years the total will be sS5
on every 800 bond. Then when the
time of maturity comes the owner

of Henry and Eva Hunold, 524
West Walnut street. Sister Ann
Henry was twenty-three years old
and was from childhood a member
of st. Mary's church, where she
was educated by the Sisters of
Loretto, and from where she en-
tered that order. For the past five
years Sister Ann had been teaching
music and art in the Indian Ter
ritory. but recently was transferred
to Ell Paso. where she engaged in
nursing our sick soldiers. She Dos
sessed a most cheerful and kind
ever willing and eager
to perform charitable deeds and
extend helping hand and comfort
Ing word to those in distress. Her
presence was always sought and II
was one of the joys OF her life to
assemble the pupils and Sisters of
her order and spend the time in
pleasant intercourse. She was a
friend to all, to no narrow circle
we're her acts of friendship con-
ined, but they extended far and
With equal beneficence to all. Sub |
