New-York New-York Freeman's Journal. THE MEASURE OF MAN. He who espouses perfection Must follow the threefold plan Of soul and mind and body. To compass the stature of man. For deep in the primal substance With power and purpose and poise And order under the chaos, A music beneath the noise The urge of a secret patience Throbbed into rhythm and form. Till instinct attained to vision And the sentiment clay grew warm. For sense was a smoldering fire, And spirit a breath of air Blowing out of the darkness, Fostering reason's flare. By loving, and learning, and doing, Being must pass and climb To goodness, to truth, to beauty. Through energy, space and time; Out of the Infinite essence For the eternal employ. Fashioning, freeing and kindling, Symmetry, w isdom and joy. - Wherefore the triune dominion-Religion, dominion-Religion, science and art 'We may not disrupt nor divide, Setting its kingdom apart, But ever with glowing ardor After the ancient plan. Build the love and the rapture Into the life of man. WHO ARE INTOLERANT? A Fairly Direct and Conclusive Answer An-swer Given by a Non-Catholic Newspaper Man. In a recent number of the Ladies' Home Journal the editor treats frankly a question which is frequently the subject sub-ject of newspaper men's talk (among themselves), but of which they never write. It is one of a number of subjects sub-jects which the profession has labeled j "loaded," and which are not to be ' touched (for publication) with a forty-foot forty-foot pole, not to speak of peTi or pencil. That is true of the editorial profession in general, but the particular editor here quoted is rather partial to topics of the "loaded" variety, and seems to care little whether they "go off'' in the handling or not. More interesting, therefore, than surprising, is the following fol-lowing comparison of the respective attitudes at-titudes of the Catholic and Protestant patrons of a magazine under given conditions: "This expression of both points of view takes on a curious study of human hu-man nature when one sits in an editorial edito-rial chair and watches the effects. We may publish, for example, a pictorial article describing the life of Pope Pius X at the Vatican. Immediately there issues a stream of letters from readers of all shades of Protestant beliefs protesting pro-testing against what they call our indorsement in-dorsement of Roman Catholicism.' Yours is a Protestant magazine, mind you. (we have never said that it was!) says the writer, and you have no right to enter our homes and advocate a religion re-ligion in which we do not believe. But suppose we turn the matter around, and how about the scores of articles voicing Protestant beliefs entering the homes of our Roman Catholic subscribers? sub-scribers? Yet it is a significant fact that never a word of protest comes to us from . the thousands of our Roman Catholic readers with regard to a single sin-gle article that we have ever published voicing Protestant beliefs:" And such, it may be safely asserted, has been the experience of every magazine mag-azine and newspaper editor in the country. coun-try. Take as an example. Philadelphia's Philadel-phia's daily papers for the past month, with their columns upon columns of reports re-ports of "Union Evangelistic" services. Catholic readers have not been protesting protest-ing to the editors. It is not the "voicing "voic-ing of Protestant beliefs" that moves them to action in that line, but the misrepresentation of Catholic beliefs. But if they have not been writing they have been doing some hard thinking, think-ing, those Catholic readers, and with good reason. They know that -simultaneously with the widely advertised "evangelistic services" there has been proceeding within many of their own churches a special work of conversion, which has taken thousands of worn toilers from their beds at dawn for mass and instruction, and assembled them again in the evening for a sermon ser-mon and more prayers. They know that this is the "king's business" in earnest; that it involves labor and fatigue fa-tigue on the part of priests and people; that it is vastly more effective, more beneficial to the community than any other religious activity possibly could be, and they know that it is ignored by the papers whose pages are bursting under the pressure of matter setting forth to the last detail the incidents of a campaign conducted by sectarians. What If our daily papers devoted three, four or five columns every morning morn-ing for a month to reports of the exercises, ex-ercises, sermons and results of missions mis-sions in Catholic churches? Canadian Freeman. THE KAISER AND THE NUN. Homely Philosophy Makes German Ruler "Shake His Head." The special correspondent of the "Neucs Wiener Tagblatt" at Corfu re lates the following interesting incident: inci-dent: "The German emperor since he came to Corfu, has visited various ancient an-cient churches and monasteries to inspect in-spect old church painting1?. He visited visit-ed also 'Death Island, where an ancient an-cient nunnery exists. The Royal visitors, vis-itors, arriving unexpectedly, found the superior cleaning the church lamps and two nuns scouring the floor. The kaiser entered into conversation with one nun. while King George acted as interpreter. The kaiser asked the nun, who is 35 years old. how long she bad been in the nunnery. She replied, 'About twenty years.' The kaiser remarked re-marked that she must have commenced commenc-ed her novitiate very early. She said: 'At sixteen.' "His majesty then asked, 'What caused you. when so young, almost a child, to renounce the world and its pleasures? Some great misfortune?' She answered, 'No; only love for God. And you, who have remained In the world, what pleasure do you find in it?' The kaiser, without replying, asked. ask-ed. 'Did it cause you no sorrow to sacrifice sac-rifice your youth?' She said. 'What Is youth? A dewdrop in the field which nature gives In the night and which disappears with the first rays of the morning sun.' "After this the kaiser left her, shaking shak-ing his head." |
