ENGLISH CATHOLIC GUILD FOR
CONVERSION OF JEWS.

Catholics in England have begun an
organized effort for the conversion of
their Jewish brethren. A "Catholic
Guild of Israel" has been founded to
pray for the Jews; to establish a cor
respondence center for them; to pub
lish apologize literature in Yiddish
and English specially adapted to their
needs; to circulate Catholic books and
papers among them; to give sermons
and lectures to Catholics, in order to
win their sympathy and cooperation
to Jews in order to explain the Catho-
lie faith, and to collect a reference
library of Hebrew and Catholic litera-
ture to be put at the disposal of the
members for the above mentioned.

LESSON OF SEVEN WISE MEN.

Most people have heard of the Seven
Wise Men of Greece, Pittacus. Bias,
Scion, Thales, Chilon, Cleobulus, and
Fernandez. Here is their story; and
the moral Of it is wortl, remembering,
if the names are not. AS some Coans
were fishing, certain strangers from
Miletus bought whatever should be
in the nets without seeing it. When
the nets were brought in they were
found to contain golden tripod. A
dispute arose among the fishermen
and the strangers as to whom it be-
longed; and as they could not agree,
they took it to the Temple of Apollo
and consulted the pricstess there. She
said it must be given to the wisest
man in Greece; and it was according
ly sent to Bias, who declared that
Thales was wiser, and sent it to him.
Thales sent it to another one, and so
on until it had passed through the
hands of all the men, distinguished
afterwards as the Seven Wise Men;
and as each one claimed that the other
was wiser than he, it was finally sent
to the Temple of Apollo, where it
long remained to teach the lesson that
the wisest are the most distrustful
of their wisdom.
