FALSE IDEAS OF HOLINESS.

There is a danger of forming false
idea of holiness. To hear some people
talk one would suppose it necessary to
leave everything, to throw away all, TO
bury oneself in desert and there de-
vote oneself entirely to prayer and
modification. People then reply, that
is impossible, SO holiness must be left
to the saints; and then betake them
selves to a myriad of faults, sins, inf
delities towards God. That is to say,
under the excuse of not being able to
become saints, they make themselves
quite easy about their state, and slip
on swiftly to their own condemnation.
This is an errCr, invented by the spirit
Of lies, accepted by the world, favored
by the passions, which ask no better
than to find a plausible preteXt for sat
isfying the conscience. This is not
sanctity Sanctity consists in the ac-
complishment Of the duties God lays
upon us. In this way one who fulfills
we'll the duties of his station, and
much more, one who fulfills them we'll
for God, will become a real saint
northing more is needed.

THE SIN OF MODERNlTY.

Our fathers have sinned and are
not, but we have sinned more deeply.
Their sin was directly against man
his right to liberty and justice. The
sin of modernity strikes directly at
God and seeks His destruction in so
far as it can be accomplished. Is it
not true that the rulers of this world
in modern times have ruled it in utter
contempt of Him Who rules the uni
verse? 1t is an earnest of a better
spirit to come to witness this master
sin of the modern man acknowledged
in the public press: "The real value
of war; writes a secular journal, "as
a promoter of human uplift and in
ternational reform will be found pre-
cisely in the extent to which it brings
humanity back to a realization of its
dependence on the Almighty and to
its recognition of it's moral reponsi-
bility to Him. In the last and highest
analysis what is at stake are not
human systems, but divine authority.
The world cannot be made permanent
ly safe for democracy if it does not
create an allegiance to the supreme
sovereignty of Heaven. Mankind has
strayed away from this thought time
and time again, but every time it has
done so it has paid a heavy penalty
for it's folly in running after false
gods. The scientist and skeptic may
smile, but the experience of ages is
against them. . The real reason of
this was is not the menace of race of
supermen, or the panacea of democ-
racy, but the overlordship of a Divine
Governor without Whom nations and
men can hope for no abiding peace or
happiness"
Truth.

THE DIVINE GUIDANCE.
-BD A C0FmelGte Nun

Whether the OVerruling Providence,
of which we talk SO much and know
SO little, has each of us in His kindly
care and keeping, we shall better
know when our minds have the
broader scope which Immortality will
make possible. But, however men
may dispute over individual care, His
care over the race as whole fills all
the pages of human history
Unity and progress are the watch
words of the Divine guidance, and, no
matter how harsh has been the treat
men, every great event or series of
events, has been for the good of the
race Where this the proper time,
could show that Wars-and wars
ought to be banished forever from the
face of the earth; that pestilences-
and the time is coming when they will
be no more; that persecutions-an
liberty Of thought is the richest pearl
Of life-that all these things-Wars,
pestilences and persecutions-wer
but helps to the unity of mankind
All things, including our own names,
bind us together for deep and unre-
lenting purposes.
Think what we should be, who are
unlearned and british, if the wise, the
learned and the good could separate
themselves from us; were free from
our superstitions and vague and
foolish fears, and stood loftily by
themselves, wrapped in their own SUI
periOr wisdom. Therefore hath it
been wisely ordained that no set of
creatures of our race shall be beyond
the reach of their helping hand-so
lofty that they will not fear our re-
proaches, or SO mighty as to be be-
yond our reach. If the lofty and the
learned do not lift us up, we drag
them down.
But unity is not the only watch
word; there must be progress also.
Since, by a law we cannot evade, we
are to keep together, and since we
are to progress, we must do it to-
gether, and nobody must be left be-
hind. This is not matter of philos-
Ophy; it is matter of fact. No
progress which did not lift all ever
lifted any.
If we let the poison of filthy
diseases percolate through the novels
OF the poor, Death knocks at the
palace gates If we leave to the
greater horror of ignorance any por-
ton Of our race, the consequences of
ignorance strike us all, and there is
no escape. We must all move, but we
must all keep together. 1t is only
when the rearguard comes up that the
vanguard can go on.

hath not revealed it to thee, but my
Father who is in heaven" (Matth.
Is: 10 Peter had already the knoWl-
edge that the Messiah was messenger
of God; hence a special revelation
would not have been necessary. This
revelation reveals something more,
namely the sonship of God according
to nature.
b. Moreover, Christ rewards Peter
for his confession. The knowledge
and acknowledgment of the Messiah
ship in general all the Apostles had as
we'll as Peter. What Peter had over
and above was the knowledge of
Christs real and natural sonship of
God.
Just as clearly Christ claimed be-
fore Caiaphas to be the real and true
Son of God according to nature and
for this claim He went to death.
In the Gospels there is therefore no
question, as the deniers of the divinity
of Christ imagine, Of a gradual de-
velopment of the consciousness Of
Christ of His divine sonship. We
can only see that Christ reveals Him
self always clearer and clearer to
His hearers, which is according to His
humility. He did not want to step
openly before the world with the
claim: Il am God" but wanted to
educate His hearers gradually to this
knowledge That He had this plan
from the beginning, we see from His
conduct at the first choice of His
disciples John y, and the miracle at
the wedding of Cana, His first appear
ance in Jerusalem and Nazareth as
we'll as His first miracles. This plan
is plainly seen not only in the Gospel
of ST. John but in the other Evan
gelists as well. This disposes Of the
fable of the gradual growth Of the
consciousness Of Christ. Harnack adj
mits the insolvable difficulty of this
riddle" as we shall see in a future
article.

FOURTEEN ERRORS.

The fourteen errors of life have
been enumerated as follows: ..
To attempt to set up our own stand
ard of right and wrong, and expect
everybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment of
others by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion in
this world.
To endeavor to mould all DISPOSE
lions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant trifles.
To look to perfection in our own
actions
To worry ourselves and others about
what cannot be remedied
Not to alleviate, if we can, all that
needs alienation.
Not to make allowance for the
weakness of others.
To consider anything impossible
that we cannot ourselves perform.
To believe only what our finite
minds can grasp.
To live as if the moment, the time,
the day were so important that it
would live forever.
To estimate people by some outside
quality, for it is that within which
makes the man.

RELIGIOUS PICTURES AND
STATUES.

Through the senses sin enters into
the soul, like the thief through the
open window. Through the senses the
angel of purity and all the virtues can
equally gain admittance, like celestial
Visitants, into the heart of man.
The Church has always understood
this great truth. Hence, the appeals
she makes to us through her pictures,
her statues, her stations and all the
many representations Of Christ and
His Holy Mother or Of the saints that
intercede for us at the throne of God.
In stone and color she would make
visible for us the models we should
initiate, from the delicate child saint,
Agnes, with the lamb pressed to her
bosom, a symbol of her innocence, to
the aged Simeon, holding in his arms
the Infant Saviour, for Whom his soul
had longed those many years. Now
Thou dost dismiss Thy servant, o
Lord, according to Thy word, inpeace;
because my eyes have seen Thy saliva
ton"
AS our eyes are lifted, do they fall
upon the Heart of Christ pleading with
US for our love? Do they light upon
the image of Mary Immaculate, ten
derby reproving, with motherly solici-
tude, the least straying thought that
could lead us away from God? Do
! they glance up to Joseph, the princely
scion Of David, teaching us loyalty and
promising protection and fatherly care
for all our cherished ones? Do they
view the, scenes of Bethlehem or Cal
vary or dwell upon some episode, beau
tiful and majestic, gathered from the
life OF Christ or of His Saints? Are
the wings of the Guardian Angel I'M
folding to remind us and our children
of His presence in our midst?
| Other pictures need not for this rea-
son be excluded. The faces of living
friends or of the dear departed may
still recall to US fond recollections
Patriotism, too, may hang its emblems
on our walls and the scenes of nature
be reflected in the humble print or
painted canvas.
Yet every room should have it's
tokens of our Faith. Everywhere stat
lie or picture can be made, eloquent
to us of the things of God. Silent
mentors can be all about usand word
less sermons can be preached at every
hour to hearts receptive of the grace
of God.

THE CATHOLIC BULLETIN, JULY IS, 1918

chism, if the case may warrant, but
never one word of argument no mat
ter how sorely you may be tempted.
In short, live up to the best that
| is in you, and make the atmosphere
of your home a Catholic atmosphere
from the very first day you enter it.
Let your husband and his friends
| find Catholic newspapers and books
on the reading table. Don't be
ashamed of your crucifiX and sacred
pictures; they are silent profession
of that faith which is your most
precious heritage.
Remember your husband chose a
| Catholic girl from all the world of
women to be his wife, and by the true
Catholicity of your life you will make
his home the sweetest happiest,
hottest spot on earth for him, proving
with the passing years the wisdom of
his choice
Perhaps you are asking me, little
bride, or brideto-be, why / feel called
upon to give this advice; now 1 will
tell you why the subject appeals to
me so strongly.
Twenty years ago, fresh from q
convent school, / came bride to the
home of my non-Catholic husband
came to live among his people in a
village where l was the only Catho-
lie. My husbands family received me
with affection, but alas! | was soon
to know that they were bitterly pref
udiced against the Church, without
knowledge of one Of her doctrines,
but with misinformation enough to fill
volumes
l saw how easy it would be to make
a failure of my life! Prayerfully
resolved never to be drawn into an
| argument of religion, but to explain
carefully each little thing as oppor,
tunity offered.
The first time my new relatives
| dined with us they made some com
ment on the Sign of the Cross which
they observed | made before l said
| grace. O. how glad | was to- unfold
it's beautiful sacredness to them all
it was like giving a soldier chance
| W NSASIAu 4lAo IClSo" w hOlI lltlI III
ished | knew that never again would
it seem a superstitious practice tc
them.
Once, when my husband found he
could not move me from what he
| termed my own simpleness he sale
| impatiently, 20, I believe you are diff
| ferent from any woman l ever saw.
A year had scarcely gone by wher
he said almost the same words, bu
in what different tone; kneeling by
my bed his arm around me and his
little son, he repeated the same words
and added, "and I thank God for my
brave Catholic wife"
Years have gone by since then:
have had the happiness of seeing m!
despised religion respected among m!
husbands people, and the still create
happiness of seeing my beloved hus
band baptized, and have knelt beside
him at Gods holy altar with all on
children-so now you know why m.
heart goes out to the girl who stand
where | did twenty years ago.
