GENTLY removed from the distraction
and noise of busy city life, yet near
enough to avoid isolation, st. Johns
university is situated on the north
bank of St. Johns lake, near St.
Cloud, Mimi.
The university, founded in 1857 by
the Order of St. Benedict, is empow-
cred by special charter of the state
legislature and by special grant of
the holy see to confer all university
degrees.
Aside from the theological school,
courses are offered in preparatory
department, high school, CONNER
cial department and a collegiate de-
partment. This educational work is
supervised by the rector and the pre-.
feet of studies. The rector is as
sisted by seven projects of discipline
in the supervision of the conduct and
application of the students.
Much attention is given to athletics
and the hundred-acre campus affords
ample facilities for baseball and foot
ball grounds, handball and tennis
courts, while the situation of the col
lege on St. Johns lake makes posi-
BILE the enjoyment of water sports.

THE scAPuLAR.

.Scapulars are of various sizes and
makes. There are seventeen scapulars
approved and worn. The large scapu-
lars are those worn by monks. The
large scapular, worn by monks, con-
sists of long, broad piece of wooden
cloth suspended from the shoulders
and reaching the feet on both sides
of the body There is an opening in
the center for the head. Some scapu-
lars also have parts from this strip
overlapping the shoulders, giving the
scapular the form of the cross. The
large scapulars are of various colors,
according to the color of the order.
Carmelites and Franciscans have the
brown scapular; the Trinitarians, Do
minicans and Lady of Ransom, white !;

The scapular most in use in the
Church is the brown scapular of the
Carmelite. This order received its
name from it's monastery, on Mt. Car
mel, and claims an antiquity back tc
the prophets Elias and Eliseus.
Necessary conditions are: First, tc

AN OLD CATHOLIC CHURCH.

Down in the heart of that section
of Philadelphia given over to bonding
establishments, banks, and insurance
offices, is narrow little thoroughfare
known to the city directory as Will
ing's alley. 1t extends for single
block and it's position is such that it
is almost impossible for stranger to
find the place alone. One Philadel-
phian in 80 is aware of it's existence
Both sides of Vikings alley are
lined with gloomy, old mercantile
houses, most of which were built a
good many years prior to the Civil
War. At one end of the court is a
small bookstall in charge of Grip
pie, at which prayer books, rosaries,
and holy water fonts are offered for
sale. At the other is modest, but
beautiful stone chapel, the walls Of
which show the wear and stains of
many years.
This is the Roman Catholic church
Of st. Joseph, built in the early years
of the eighteenth century, and since
that time in charge of the Jesuit
fathers. 1t played disinterested but
intimate part in the events of the
Revolutionary war. Washington sought
the solace of it's cool sanctuary dur
ing the dark hours of the war, and
Lafayette, Pulaski, and DeKalb wor-

On Saturday evenings and on the
eve of feast days a steady stream OF
penitents passes in and out of the
courtyard, for the fathers have earned
the reputation of being good confes
sors.

GOD SAVE ALL HERE.

1OO Save ALL t1Co6s
There is prayer that's prayed, alone
In dear old Erin's land;
IT'S uttered on the threshold-stone
With smiles and clasping hand;
And soft, perchance, it's murmured
low,
With sigh and falling tear,
The grandest greeting man may know,
The prayer, God save all here!"
In other lands they know not we'll
How priceless is the lore
That hedges with sacred spell
Old Ireland's cabin door;
To those it is no empty sound
Who think with many a tear,
OF long-loved memories wreathing
round
The prayer, God save all here!"
Live on. o Prayer, in Ireland still
Live on for evermore,
The echoes of her home to fill
When uttered at her door,
And guarding by it's holy spell
The soul and conscience clear,
Be craven on each heart as we'll,
The prayer, God save all here!"

 The Kaiser never hesitated to profit by the chivalry of ais adversaries. par ticularly in the matter of reprisals. He saw nothing base in taking such an ad- vantage. He could bomb London and Paris and shell harmless seaside re- sorts. But when in stern reprisal the Rhenish towns are bombarded in turn, this Gamnable hypocrite protests against the breach of international law" There was not an international law, or moral law, for that matter, which he had not previously violated.
 We are tild that we must not humiliate the German people. But when did they fail to humiliate not merely those they were fighting, but even the neutrals upon whom they were largely dependent for help? It must be clear that the prin- ciple of reprisalS now established en- ters here. It is the duty of the world, painful as it may be, to reduce the Ger man people to the last stage of humilia- ton.
 We are told to forgive our enemies. But the Bible does not tell us to forgive a national enemy at somebody else's expense, in this case at the expense CT civilization itself. The analogy is false. Even when we took upon ourselves the task of educating primitive races to high CT things, we had to show them nrst that we were strong enough to convince them in other ways.

From the Wall Street Journal.
 While generalities are to be distrusted, there are some which are self-evident. In nation of a low moral and spiritual development, however great it's material progress may have been, two traits will always be found. It will hate or despise what 1t does not understand because it will be unable to conceive of a mentality of the spirit higher than it's own. And it will not understand mercy, consid- eration and chivairys alike in business and in war; in the sense we do If we treat the German with humanity, such as he has never shown he thinks we do it because we are afraid of him.
 Those with experience of native races at a low stage of development as Amer jeans dealing with the Filipino or the Red Indian, or the British in Africa and other continents, record these facts, and, taking up the white mans burden, are govedned accordingly. By long pdocess or teaching, often thanklessly received, they train these races to the end of re- moving exactly those two defects which the war has exposed so conspicuously in the German mind, character and, above all, the German system of educa- tion.
 Germany, for instance, is the inventor Of the one-sided duel. This, to take a typical instance, is between a German officer armed with sword and a waiter armed with napkin. This is kultur in it's highest sense because it makes the end certainty. The rest of us would have given the waiter a fair show, if only with a carving knife Apply this doctrine, which, be it remembered, is ac- cepted not only by the officer, but by
