diers hoped, if they kept the little
girl, that her parents would come or
send after her, and they could enter
into some negotiations with them to
get them back on the reserve. But
the father and mother of the little In
dian girl did not appear. 1t was a
very serious thing for lot of soldiers
to have charge of little three-and-a-
half-year-old girl, and they were great
ly puzzled.
Several days passed; and at last the
soldiers decided that the little papoose
must be taken back to her family, as
they would not come for her. With
her doll in her arms, she started with
her protectors for the wigwam. When
she reached the tribe with her doll,
she created the greatest excitement.
The soldiers left the child with her
mother, and returned to the fort.
The next day the little papoose's
mother appeared at the fort with the
doll, to return it. She was received
with the greatest courtesy by the sol
diers, treated with great considera-
ton. and made to understand that her
little daughter was to keep the doll.
The result was that the soldiers kind
ness to the little girl, created revul-
sion of feeling among the wandering
Indians. and led to negotiations which

be treated as matter of parental
self-will, subject to the cold calcula-
tons of worldly prudence. There is
question here, in fact, of making or
marring the fortunes Of an immortal
soul; in such an awful crisis there
can be no justification for making OBJ
iections founded on maxims of in
terested self-seeking. All parents
should -right-thinking
ones do understandable the express
ed desire of son or a daughter to
join a religious congregation springs
ordinarily from motives of supernat-
ural charity.
Far from opposing the Divine Will
thus made known, wise Christian par
ents will readily make the sacrifice
which God demands of them. He will
compensate them for this deed in
granting them and their beloved ones
the hundredfold of blessings to those
who leave father and mother to follow
in the footsteps of Christ's privileged
companions.
After all, what higher or nObler
course of life can one enter upon than
that of performing the spiritual and
corporal works of mercy? Does it not
make those who are called to it CO.
operators with Christ in the salvation
of souls? Does it not remove them
from the very dangers which true par
ents are most anxious to have their
children escape-from the occasions
of sin and the countless evils to- which
the young are exposed in the midst
of corrupt world?
The father or mother that would
hinder the child they profess to love
so much from taking upon him the
sweet yoke of Christ in the religious
state, must be the victim of delu
sion that blinds the reason and rem
ders it incapable of seeing how the
true welfare of themselves and then
children is best secured by obedience
! to the will of God.

Parents and Religious Vacations.

Parents who have the right idea of
always well disposed to further Coos
designs in respect to the welfare of
the children He has given them.
Hence, when the latter manifest
prediction for the religious state,
truly Christian fathers and mothers
take prudent counsel in this all-im-
portant crisis They recognize the
fact that the temporal as we'll as the
eternal interests Of their offspring are
closely bound up with the course of
action they may adopt, upon learning
that their son or daughter is inclined
to become a member of some approx
ed religious order or congregation.
If it is certain that parents are
bound by the natural, as well as by
the positive Divine Law, to provide
for the TEMPORAL welfare of their
children, they are still more bound to
provide for their SPIRITUAL needs;
and, as the willful neglect to provide
for their bodily wants is violation
of the Divine Law, it is a still great
err breach of that same law to be care
less in respect to procuring for them
the means of securing eternal happi-
ness.
Too often it happens that parents
are over-solicitous about the temporal
Well-being of their sons and daugh-
tiers. They exhaust all the resources
of parental indulgence to advance
them in the social order and insure
them uninterrupted earthly enjoy
ment; to these things they attach an
importance which they noWise de-
serve; for the goods of life are fleet
ing. and the souls worth far exceeds
that Of the body.
Such an attitude, it need hardly be
said, is contrary to the dictates OF
reason and Christian morality. 1t ar

gard to the nature Of the religious life
and a false conception OF the parental
