AN ORPHANAGE Is NEEDED.

Whenever drought, food, famine or
other misfortune afficts any portion
of China, the poor people, pagans of
course, react by casting away their
babies and small children, and since
the nuns and priests try to rescue
these waits, an extra burden is laid
upon them.
The Lazarists of West Che Kiang
are still suffering from the effects of
last August's food which injured the
harvest. Rev. John Kui, native
priest, writes from HUI Chow:
During the past hard times many
Christians came with their children
to seek refuge at the mission. The
pagans did not hesitate to cast the
little ones by the roadside or drown
them: we save as many of them as
we can.
Recently a Christian brought us a
new born baby. It's parents wanted to
throw it into the river. But a neigh
Dor, a catechumen, saved it and, OF
course, placed it in the mission. AS
it happens, we have no orphan asylum
nor the means to open one. Never
theless we can not refuse the tiny
creatures, so there we are with a lot
of babies on our hands and no proper
wav to care for them. The solution
of our difficulty will suggest itself to
the warmhearted."

den, through the house and the yard,
planted with asparagus, down to the
wall of enclosure which separated the
presbytery from the public highway,
and there by a careful effort of his
hand, he opened the monumental
niche which could easily have held
the annual correspondence Of the
whole community.
He had not made mistake. The
shape of the nest-like a pineapple
it's color, the composition of it's wool,
and the lining which showed through
all convinced him. He listened to
the kissing of the invisible brooder,
and answered it. Don't cry, little
one, l recognize you, twenty-one days

little ones-is that what you want?

The hypothesis was not likely; one
did not receive at st. Philemon any
more letters than one sent out. The
mail-carrier was scarcely more than a
traveller, drinking soup at this ones
house, having glass at another's, and
leaving from time to time a letter of
CONSUMPTION or a notice of taxes on
some remote farm. However, since
the feast of st. Robert was approach
ing, which, as everyone knows, falls
on the twenty-ninth of April, the

WORLD.

The Rev. DR.. George Broening, pas
tor of Fewsmith Memorial Presbyte-
rian church, Newark, n. j., on Pass
ing of Professionalism and the Coming
OF Catholicism said:
1T is necessary to bury our preju-
: dices, our bigotry, our narrowness. 1t
is necessary for us to understand each
other, to know each other. 1t is only
through fellowship we can get again a
Christianity.
Had the church been united for the
Kingdom of God, and turned a deaf
ear to sectarianism and nationalism,
this blot could never have stained his
tOry's pages, this tragedy could never
have been enacted on historys stage.
And what are we doing today?
America is laying deserved honors at
the feet of Cardinal MERCER. Presby-
terrain Princeton, Congregational Yale,
Episcopalian Harvard, Baptist Brown

House to house treatment to the
sick is also given, and the pills that

wretched Chinese of this northern
country who have many ailments and
almost no medical care. The Sisters
of Providence deserve much aid in
their apostolate.

MANY IN THE SAME BOAT.

One missionary writes that however
it may sound, it does him an immense
amount of good to read accounts OF
"other fellows" trials that appear in
the Propagation of the Faith publica-
TONS Only for them he would feel
that his burdens were just a little too
heavy, and that he was chosen by
Providence for an especially hard lot,
but since practically every one is in
the same boat, he plucks up courage
and concludes that there isn't any
easy way to the apostolate.
And the constant reader" must ad-
nit that there are more calamities to
the square inch in mission papers and
magazines than in any printed mat
ter, and worst of all, the facts are all
true.

rawlings of some newspapers that
should be barred from the United
States mail.
Our Protestant church seems to be
on the decline. Empty church build
ings and tremendous church losses are
ominous signs. How much loyalty,
reverence and diligence is there in the
Protestant church today? Protestant
ism needs to learn few things the
Catholic Church has to teach. She
needs to learn devotion to Christ, to
the Church and to the Clergy.
Behind all this there is a reason.
The world is demanding unity. What
is our League of Nations but unity
of the nations for the furtherance of
peace. The business of the Kingdom
is the business of the church. The
world demands there shall no longer
be voices of schisms in the business
of God. 1t demands the churches get
together
To-day the world as it is, with its
strife, restlessness and unbeief, will
never be able to be reached by a divid-
ed church."
