lists OR, .materiaists. . There is more
than professional pride or Hippocra-
tian ethics in the work of a Catholic
physician.
The Catholic physician is always
mindful of the one thing necessary.
No false or sentimental desire to re-
lieve pain will make him forget that
his dying patient is about to face God
in judgment. He will not wait until
death has set the seal of unconscious
ness on the dying man to say to those
around that the hour is at hand when
the great reckoning must be made.
The priest will not find his parish
toner's stupefied with drugs when he
calls to administer the last Sacra-
ments. The Catholic physician knows
we'll the power of the Sacramento,
that "the prayer, of faith will save the
sick man, 'i<and relieved of the trou-
bles that burden the soul the pain
racked body will frequently be cured
of it's ills. He recognizes that supe-
rior to all his knowledge and skill is
the Great Physician Who in response
to prayer will heal and without Whose
aid and blessing the labors of man are
nothing.
We need Catholic physicians, need
them with a particular necessity in
our day The crimes that are daily
committed, the unnatural crimes
against those whom God would have
as the mothers of our race, the crimes
against little ones who cannot even
raise their voices in protest, are cry
ing to high Heaven. The women who
have been defrauded of their most
glorious privilege, the race that is be-
ing robbed of it's future in the name
of medical science, is sufficient de-
mand for physicians who know that
their sacred calling is to cure and not
to kill.
The Church honos's the medical pro-
fession in the person Of Cosmas and
Damian, who not only sanctified
themselves in that career but showed
to the world the great part physi-
clan may play in Christian society.
Too frequently the physician falls in
to materialism and fatalism. He finds
the explanation of suffering and death
in nature and knows man only as mere
flesh and blood. A higher ideal in
spired our saints to exercise their art
with religious reverence. They de-
serve the encomium of the Wise Man:
Honor the physician for the need thou
hast of him; for the Most High hath
created him. For all healing is from
God and he shall. receive gifts Of the
King"

ON FALLING SEVEN TIMES.

Father Hull, S. j., in The Bombay
Examiner, calls attention to the fact
that the alleged Scriptural saying,
"The just man falls seven times a
day" proverbs XIV, 16) does not
mean what most people think it does.
In the first place the words Gin a
day. are not found in the Bible.
Moreover, the idea of the passage is
not that the just man falls often, but
that he always rises again. Finally,
these falls are not sins, but sufferings
and tribulations. The context clear
ly shows this. The sense is: Do not
attack just man, for God defends
him; and if he falls, he rises up again,
whereas for the wicked, a fall means
irreparable ruin. Can one extend the
falls to include moral falls, i. e., sins
as is usually done? Most commenta
tors answer no, though few (St. Jer
ONE, for example), are less exclusive
In any case it is, not going too far, to
wish to prove from this text the Cath
Ollie thesis about the moral impossi
bility of avoiding for long all sins OF
frailty.
