WHO CANNOT BE CURED. Backed up by over a third of a century cJ remarkable and uniform cures, a record rnch as no other remedy for the diseases fcxsd weaknesses peculiar to women ever attained, the proprietors and makers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel f nlly warranted in offering1 to pay $500 in )eal money of the United States for any case of Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb, which they cannot cure. All they ask is a fair and seasonable trial of their means of cure. "I was a jTeat sufferer for six years and do Wired all the time with a number of physician tut did not receive any benefit," writes Mrs. GerfTe Sogden. of 641 Bonda Street, Saginaw tSouth), Michigan. 1 had given up all hope of rrer ettin better, Thought I would write to u. When I received your letter telline m what to do I commenced to take your Favorite lYwcnption and follow your advice. I have token ten bottles in ah, also five vials of the VFleasant Pellets. Am now regular, after havt missed two years and suffered with pain in f e head and back. I was so nervous, could not t or sleep. Now I can thank you for my covery.n Don't hesitate to write to Dr. R.V. Pierce, kief consulting physician to the Invalids 5 el,nd SuTSica Institute, at Buffalo, JJ. Y., if you want gooc medical advice from fully qualified physician as to your pertonal good health. Such letters are always nxswered free of charge and confidentially. A medicine which has outsold all others Jcr women in the past third of a century and being recommended by all those who have used it, is a good remedy to tie to. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription ia purely vegetable and does not con. Ifcin a particle of alcohol to destroy the Hood corpuscles and weaken the system. lo not permit the ealer to insult your intelligence by sugges ing some other comJiound which he recommends as "just as good," because he mates it himself.

Regrettable as is the fact, the at- not do so, is proven by Pope Nicholas tituda of the Catholic Church on the resisting the insolence and sensualidivorce is an attitude in which she ty of lothahe, Pope Clement VII, stands alone and has stood alone for losing the Kingdom of England to centuries. The question therefore sug Catholicty through refusing to grant gets itself if she stands alone, she a divorce to Henry VIII, and Pius must either be right and her oppon- VII, suffering imprisonment: rathe

ents wrong, or vice-versa. So before than grant a divorce to Napoleon

defending or attacking her, we must from Josephine, and many other in

first discover her attitude on the question, and then view it from the spiritual, the worldly and the common sense standpoint. First then we will define her attitude by stating

stances in the history of the church. , To those who would deny the right of Christ to lay down the seemingly stringent moral law that marriage is binding "till death do us part," we

the Catholic Church declares that would ask hrst, Do you believe that marriage is a sacrament which was Christ ever lived on earth." And if

instituted bv Our Lord and Savior he has read history he will answer

Jesus Christ, and is a binding con- "Yes." And again "Yes" when we tract between man and wife, dissolu- ask him if He died, and lastly, did

ble only by death of one of the two He rise again from the dead! As no

parties. The first question therefore intelligent man whose opinion is we are prompted to ask is: Is such worth solicitig will deny that histora statement true? Recognizing, how- ical fact, he admits in admitting that ever, that no statement should be fact the Divinity of Christ Who made in regard to such an important alone could perform such a miracle subject as this without quoting an- which in itself verifies the account of thoritv, we note that at the time Our all the other miracles, including the

be contracted, and as he pronounced the bond indissoluble till death intervened, and as this is the doctrine preached and the standpoint taken by the Catholic Church, she is teaching the doctrine of Chirst and is teaching the truth, and those who enunciate and promulgate the doctrine of "divorce for cause" are in error.

der." The answer defining so clearly th inviolibilit y of marriage was so plain that His enemies wished to defend themselves (typical of the advocates of divorce of the present day,) and said: "Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorce?" He answered : "Moses did not command but on account, of your heart he'., permitted it but it was not so from the beginning and I say to you that whoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and many again eommitteth adultery, again I say he that shall marry her who is put away eommitteth adultery." St. 'Mark recording what happened on this occasion makes Our Lord say tlie same thing. Ve as Catholics of course believe that Christ was the Son of God, but as we have to face and discuss this question in this age and generation with many who claim not to believe in His- divine nature, let us ask them if the life of Christ is not very interesting reading, if they can find any one speech or act of His that was not good advice or good morals. Recognizing and admitting this fact it is reasonable to suppose that appreciating the importance of His every act and word what He did He did with the, premeditation and full realization of its influence and effect. We therefore find Him proving to the unbelievers that He was God by performing such stupendous miracles as causing the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the halt to walk and even the dead to rise again to life but in order to prove to a doubting

multitude His divinity He electrified

these incredulous persons when He performed His first miracle. Can we

doubt that He reasoned that the more

important the occasion the greater

the effect when He decided to perform His first Godlike act at a mar

riage, by changing the water into, . . -l c Y .

wxne, tlius digmiying marnagu u His presence and that of His Blessed

Mother and by making it the occa

sion of his first miracle, showing to

future generations the true way to receive this holy Sacrament by invitign Him to be present at our marriage in our hearts, through the holy sacrament of the Eucharist, received during the Nuptual Mass. Holy Mother Church accepted her authority from Jesus through St. Peter and the other Apostles to go forth and teach all nations what he had taught them and his executors, they can only

fill their trust faithfully by teaching

His Gospel and doctrines. And inasmuch as he taught that marriage was indissoluble except by death, the Church has no choice or liberty to teach imy different view of the matter without repudiating Christ, her spiritual guide, hence the Catholic Church can not compromise with any laws of man on the indissolubilty of the marriage vows and that she will

There is nothing more striking to the philosophic mind than to observe at a wharf a large sea-going steam vessel about to start on her voyage with steam up, propellei-s revolving, but not able to gain a foot' of headway because she is still tied to a post on the pier by a heavy hawser. Ix't us examine the construction of this heavy rope to learn the secret of its great strength and ability to hold back this monster of the deep. We may be amused and yet mystified to see it constructed of nothing. but individual weak fibres no iron or' steel rod in the center to give it. this marvellous strength, and surely from this we must learn that in unity there is strength. Peverting to the subject we are considering tonight, we ask ourselves wherein under God does the strength of 'this great nation rest, if not in the Christian, the God-blessed homes of our country? And can we hope to continue to prosper can we ask that God to bless our nation as a unit when the component parts, the fibres that make the rope are rotten. When we know of

such absolute barbarity in our midst as a man trading off or selling his

wife to another, as has been reported more than once in the daily papers

among the poorer and ignorant classes and when we read of divorces and exchange of wives or husbands through the medium of the divorce courts in the very upper crust of societythese people being acknowledged and received in and among the four hundred of Newport and eastern so-called society does it not suggest there is something rotten in Denmark when such a state of affairs is tolerated, if not approved? Coming down to hard sense and cold facts what different effect, or rather what difference in moral effect

on the masses, do such conditions have from the conditions which pre

vailed in the court of France on the

people who brought about the French Revolution? Will nof the strong and

innate patriotism' of this great America people cause them to look into the

future to stop and call a halt to this terrible condition of affairs, Figures are not necessary to convince us Catholics we see and deplore the ex" isting conditions but to those who differ from us in our view of mar-
