poverty-stricken as she says she is?
Looking through her budget one
cannot help becoming skcptical.
As Lloyd George. remarked at the
Paris conference German taxes are
lower than ours, and | may add
that they are not regularly collected.
AS to the Reich's budget expenses
they defy both the treaty and com
mon sense. Can tho Allies ignore
such facts as these That the num-
Der of state functionaric8 has in
creased steadily since the war, al
though the population has been di-
minlshed by battle losses and ccs-
slons of territory; that the former
imperial administrations have taken
on $4,000 new employees; that the
postal and telegraph force has been
expanded from 100000 agents to
2o5,0o0 regular agents and $4,000
auxiliary agents; that the railroad
service personnel has grown from
100000 to 100000; that Germany is
spending on pensions 3,967 600, 900
marks before lifting finger to pay
our pensions; that the cost of the
German army still exceeds 2,50O,OOO,
600 marks in the ordinary budget
of 1920 and 1,700,00O,0O0 marks in
the exceptional budget; that Ger
many thus spends, in appearance at
least, $4,000 marks a year OF each
man she keeps in the barracks: that
there is credit of 531 100000 marks
for the support of the German war
feet; that Germany reserves 3,0OO,-
100000 marks to distribute food to
her citizens below market costs,
S28,000.000 marks to create various
homes for former soldiers, 100000
600 marks to aid German families
which have suffered from the war,
100000 marks for housing CON
struction and 25,000,00O,O0 marks
to reimburse Germans who have
made deliveries or furnished reuui-
sltions on government account?

Figures Are Authentic

beg you to believe that / do not
draw these fantastic figures out of
my imagination. | take them from
the German budget for 1920 Fer
haps they ought to be posted all
over the countryside.
Poor Germany! If she allows her
self all these budget cxtravagances,
doesn't she also suffer cruelty in her
industrial production? Let US ask
some of the German newspapers;
"The report published by the
chambers Of commerce of Frankfort
and Hanau gives summary of
conditions in leather and shoe indus
try in 1920. At the beginning of
1920 trade was very lively. Leather
goods had an easy sale. Gross busi-
ness increased and the leather and
artificial leather industries and the
shoe factories had many orders.
Toward the middle of March there
was slowing down. ,. At the
end of June there was squirt again,
and in October trade became even
more active and still remains So"

Quebec's Shrine

Canada province of Quebec fur
nishes tourists and pilgrims with
curative shrine for which great
claims are made. This section of the
Dominion was in possession of the
French until General Wolfe wrested
both the city and province of Quebec
from them by his masterful attack
on the historic Plains of Abraham,
which lay to the southwest of the
city. The shrine Of Ste. Anne de
Beaupre, situated in. the village of
that name, is twenty-one miles be-
low the quaint old city of Quebec
and is delightfully."- situated on the
banks of the historic st. Lawrence.
The basilica containing the relics is
within a stones throw of the river,
whose banks at this point are very
low, but a high range of hills be-
gins to rise back of the small pla-
teau occupied by the town and
church property. The actual found
ing of the church is veaed in pop
ular tradition that while some
Breton sailors were making their
way up the st. Lawrence they were
engulfed in a terrible storm. Accus-
toned to having recourse to their
patroness, Ste. Anne, when in their-
native land of Brittany, they gath
cred together and vowed that if the
saint would save them from ship
wreck they wesh build a chapel to
her memory wherever they happened
New-York tribune., 1921-02-27

to the shrine are the curious basin
stones Of Coastal and the stones of
Meriadec, which the neighboring
peasants firmly believe have power
to cure lumbago, headache and other
pains, by merely rubbing the af-
1icted parts on them. Ste. Anne
d'Auray has been a wonder work
ing shrine since 1923, and every
year finds thousands of pilgrims sup
plicating it for relief. Like Lourdes
there are shops of every kind. AS
Ste. Anne is the patron saint of
the sailors, it is unnecessary to add
that the seafaring folk of Brittany
pay her special homage. The tnoted
North American shrine, Ste. Anne de
Beaupre, near Quebec, Canada, is
a daughter shrine of Frances Ste
Anne d'Auray and will be considered
later. The church of N6tre Dame
de la Clarte, or Our Lady of Light,
also has a reputation for many
miraculous cures, especially of eye
troubles. 1t is situated in one of
the most picturesque spots in Brit
tany, while numerous other shrines
of like nature are scattered over
certain parts of France and attract
their thousands of the faithful every
wear.

distributing there, demanding neu-
trality for Alsace- LORRAINE neu-

the thought of the Reich, a first step
toward remuneration. Masking thus
their renascent imperialism, the
Germans themselves demonstrate
that they retain the hope of pres

power of 1914, and that once more
they wish to get the best of US by
inputing to. us their own ambitions.

History of Lourdes

Lourdes is situated at the en-
trance of the huge mountain chain
of the Pyrenees, which separate
France from Spain. The surround
ings are exceedingly beautiful, the
town and shrine being in valley
1900 feet above sea level, with tow
ering ranges on either side, which
rise to over 5000 feet. Until 1858
the town was nothing more than q

Irish Shrines

Almost every section of Europe
has its curative shrines, in more or
less number, and until comparatively
recent years England had her share
of them, but now most of those
credited to the British Isles are in
Ireland. Perhaps the only shrine of
this nature that survived the Ref
ormation in England was the ia
nous well at Holywell, accredited to
have marvellous curative powers
through the intercession of Ste.
Winefride. Ireland also has had
much trouble preserving the relics
which were connected with her noted

curative shrines during the Middle
Ages. Many miraculous stories are
told of their destruction in the wave
of religious changes that swept over
the Emerald Isle from 1887 to 1889,
at which time the image of Our
Lady of Trim was desecratcd with
a public burning. This shrine had
