In the Caucasus, she escaped as far
as Wilno, only to be again overtaken

I'VE are at q disadvantage against

Except in a few industries we dc not

May a divorced Protestant turn
Catholic and marry Catholic In the
Church7
Not while his first wife is still liv-
ing. He may, of course, become a
Catholic IL he has received the gift Of
faith; but he may not marry again
during the lifetime of his wife. Con-
suit your pastor in questions concern
ing matrimony.
TO whom should a girl apply for
a position as teacher in Catholic
school?
To the pastor, or superior, Of the
particular school. We have no agency
for hiring teachers; it il a matter
that is placed in the hands Of the
local head of the school. The Nation
al Catholic Welfare Council, through
its Department of Education, is work
ing on this problem of teachers for
Catholic schools, and you might ap-
ply to the council for information.
Kindly advise me as to the best way
to dispose Of wedding ring that has
been blessed by priest?
II your husband is still living. you
should continue to wear the ring; if
he is dead, why not continue to wear
it in his memory? If you are deter
mined to dispose of it, give to some
pastor who is collecting gold for a
chalice, or some other sacred church
vessel.
A couple Of Sundays ago priest
in our parish church gave a very in
teresting instruction on the ceremon-
les Of the Mass. As ] can't recall
what he said about the meaning of the
extending of the hands over the cha.
lice, and the pouring Of little water
into the wine, would be very much
obliged If you explained their signi.
fieanee through the question box.
(a) This is a ceremony borrowed
from the Old Law, according to which
the priest was obliged to lay his
hands upon the sacrifcial offerings
as a sign that the animal now bore
the sins and had to satisfy for them
by death. In the Mass, which is the
Sacrifice of the New Law, the extend
ing of the hands over the oblation
symbolizes, or signifies, that Christ
is the Lamb of God who bore our
sins.
(b) The priest adds little water
to the wine to signify the union OF
the Divine and human natures in
Christ, to call to mind the blood and
water that flowed from the side OF
Christ on the Cross. Others say thai
it represents the close union which
exists between ourselves and our Lord
for St. John tells us in the Apoca
lypse, that the water represents the
faithful.

Priests In England speak on the
streets the same as the Salvation
Army does here. Why don't priests
follow that custom here?
For the reason that it is custom
in one country and not in another. In
some countries priests also wear their
cassocks on the streets. AS regards
street speaking here it is question
as to whether much good would be
accomplished. Some persons incline
to believe that it would be very
salutary, while others hold the con
trary view. In any case. the Bishop Is
the one to decide such matters.

LARGE AUDIENCE
 GREETED LOCAL
 A R T I $ T S

An enthusiastic audience greeted the arsists of the community, at the entertainment given last evening un- der the auspices of the Authors club at the High school auditorium, for the benefit of the Near East Relief Fund
 A splendid program was arranged by Mrs. Mary Morse -Granniss and each number was most enjoyable and given spontaneous applause.
 The Wednesday Afternoon Musical club quartet opened the program with two pleasing numbers and were followed by selections by the Phil harmonic trio, and contralto solos charmingly rendered by Mrs. Susan Hawley-Davis.
 Arthur Levasseur, who is the pos sessor of clear tenor voice especially suited to ballad work, scored a huge success with his portion of the pro- gram, and Miss Catherine Russell, one of the youngest local favorites, displayed great skill with her sweet soprano voice, as she ca cably sang two difficult numbers in Italian.
 Miss Irene Conner was a delight with her readings of "A Minuet," and selections from Booth Tarkingtons seventeen
 Picturesque solos, duets and en- semble groups were executed by the advanced pupils of Miss Benita Slo- cum in a most exquisite manner with acocmpaniments by Miss Grace Dud- ley.

OIIVET CHURCH PLANS.

Six million people believe you can pray by turning a prayer wheel, doing, it by hand or by so hanging the wheel that the wind can do it. Have Bridgeporters any better reason for the prayer habit than the Thebitans who say they pray to nobody and ask for nothing when they twirl their prayer wheels? Dr. Brown will have something to say upon that subject at the II a. m. service tomorrow morn ing. In the evening at 7:30 o'clock the songs, old and newer, which peo- pie like to sing. will be used. The
 sermon is to be illustrated by repro duction of RaphaePs famous "Chair Madonna" copies of which will be distributed to all persons present. The painting hangs in the Pitt Gal lery in Florence. Undoubtedly Italy :, would never part with it, unless it were wrested away by war. The mu- sical selections to be used are as fol-
 lows: For the choir, Rogerss 'The Lord is My Rock.'' Booths Let Your Light so Shine,'' Shelley's ''The Lord s 1 Own Holy Day" and Renick's Rock

BAD BREATH
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets Get at the Cause and Remove It

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub stitute for calonel, act gently on the bowels and positively do the work.
 People afflicted with bad breath find quick relief through Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated tablets are taken for bad breath by all who know them.
 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets act gen. tly but firmly on the bowels and liver, stimulating them to natural action, clearing the blood and gently purifying the entire system. They do that which dangerous calomel does without any of the bad after effects.
 All the benefits of nasty, sickening, gTiping cathartics are derived from Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets without gripping, painor any disagreeable effects.
 Dr. F. M. Edwards discovered the formula after seventeen years of prac- tice among patients afflicted with bowel and liver complaint, with the attendant bad breath.
 Olive Tablets are purely a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil; you will know them by their olive color. Take one or two every night for week and note the effect. 15c and 3oc-
