Editor Areu.s-Record.
DEAR SIR,—In your issue of the 21st
August "H. D. S." writes nearly two
columns in a very gentlemanly way of
what he saw at the Shrine, and giving
him full credit for his good intentions
itis yery evident he knows little of
Catholic doctrine, consequently has
presented his rather interesting letter
in a false light. If your correspondent
had read Catholic doctrine on the re-
spect paid to angels and saints I am
sure he would pause before accusing
her, even in a covert Way of being un -
scriptural. Unfortunately there are
many like H. D. S. and with your kind
permission I will lay before your read-
ers the Catholic doctrine on this point.
The Catholic church says it is rank
idolatry to adore or worship relics.
The language of the church is, Cursed
is he who commits idolatry, who prays
to images or relics or worships them
for God, hut we honor them as preci-
ous remains which brings to our re-
membrance distinguished sanctity, and
as dear pledges which animate our
confidence in the communion and in-
tercession of saints. We find the first
Christians honoring relics. St. Augus-
tine, the great doctor of the church,
says, (Epist, 103) "1 send you the relics
of St. Stephen to which pay due hon-
or," and St. Jerome wrote a whole
hook against Vigilantus, who was the
first to deny honor•to holy relics. We
know that relics have no secret or in-
terior power or virtue, but God has
often granted great favors through
them. The waters of the Jordan being
struck by Eliseus with the mantle of
Elias suspended their course and af-
forded him a dry passage (4 Kings, 11-
1.4) and in verse the 8th the same
astounding prodigy was performed by
the same means. Read the wonders
performed by means of the rod of
Moses (Exod. vii) see also (1 Kings)
and also (Sam!. vi, 19) as to the won-
ders God was pleased to perform on
account of the ark which was certainly
a mere relic. See also (2 Kings, Saint.
vi, 6-7) and (4 Kings alias 2 Kings xiii,
21) where the bones of the Prophet
Eliseus raised a dead man to life, and
in (Acts xix) the handkerchiefs and
aprons which had touched the body of
St. Paul removed diseases and expelled
devils in fire ; the shadow of St. Peter
healed multitudes that were sick and
troubled with unclean spirits. (Acts
v, 15-18). St. Ambrose says I honor
therefore in the body of the Martyr
the wounds that he received in the
name of Christ ; I honor the memory
of that virtue which shall never die ; 1
honor those ashes which the confession
of faith has consecrated ; I honor in
them the seeds of eternity ; I honor
that body which has taught me to
love the Lord and not to fear death for
His sake. (Sermon 55). St. Chripostom
says, (Hornil 67) next to the power of
speech the monuments of saints are
hest adapted when we look on there to
excite us to the irritation of their vir-
tues. Here when anyone stands he feels
himself seized by a certain force, the
view of the shrine strikes on his heart.
He is affected as if he that there lies
were present and offered up prayers for
him. Thus does a certain alacrity
come over hien and changed almost
to another man he quits the place, for
this reason then has God left us the
remains of the saints, that which
neither riches or gold can huy. The
relics of saints and martyrs can. Gold
never dispelled diseases nor warded off
death, but the bones of the martyrs
have done both in the days of our fore-
fathers ; the former happened the latter
in our own hundreds of thousands of
protests and explanations have been
made solemnly for over three hundred
years against these malicious calumn-
ies, hut in vainiand to no effect, where-
as our common penny catechism
which can be had in any book store
will enlighten the minds of all who
have or bold these monstrous opinions
on Catholic doctrine. This old.atereo-
typed falsehood of image worship, etc.,
is so foolish that it requires no reply.
The inferior honor which we pay is
purely scriptural and in no way deroga-
tory to the adoration due to God alone.
We only honors them as H. D. S.
or any other intelligent protestant
would honor the:likeness of a dear
relative who was absent by death or
some other cause. We honor: them
according to their dignity, and
invoke their aid. We nilust be
judged by our intention for we hon-
er God, His saints and men by
the swine external • Efate of kneelln ,
bow.4111 AndupeoVering the NO.
Thus we do net adore the Queen when
we kneel, -though Clonrt etiquette re-
quires ,ua to kneel • in the presence of
Royalty, nor do we worahifi the magis-
trate When we bow, yet these tu'e ex-
ternal marks 6f internal adoration
when made to God. We tisk the in-
tercession of the Saints . and Angels
believing they hear us for the prophets,
who were tnere men, knew by a special
grace what passed at a great distance.
Eliseus knew what passed at an im-
menseistance in the King of Syria's
Chainbcin (4 Kings vi) He knew also
what passed in his absence between
Naaman Geizi, (4 Kings v.) St. Peter
knew, the sacrilegious lie of Ananias
and Sapphira. Now surely we must
suppose that the angels and saints
know more than these men. Even the
devil knows our actions, all admit' this
and the scriptures are very clear on it.
The accuser of our brethren, the devil,
is cast forth who accused them before
God day and night (Apoc. xii-10.) Now
we must allow the saints as much
knowledge at least as we accord the
devil. The angels and saints see all
things in God and hence they must see
our actions and hear our prayers in Him
and through Him as it is in Him. We
live more and have our being. They
see God face to face and know Him
even as they are known, (1st Cor. xiii-
10, 11, 12.) We know they are our
guardians and hence they must know
all our actions. See that you despise
not one of these little ones, for I say to
you that their angels in heaven always
see the face of my father (Matt. xviii-
10.) The angels are all ministering
spirits sent to minister for them who
shall receive the inheritance of salva-
tion (Heb. i-14.) And again He that
shall overcome and keep my words to
the end to him I will give power over
nations and he shall rule them (Apoc.
ii -26, 27.) Thou hast made us the saints
to our God a Kingdom and priests and
we shall reign upon the earth (Apoc. v-
10.) We find in (St. Luke xv-10) it is
declared that there shall be joy before
the angels of God upon one sinner do-
ing penance. They must see even the
enitent heart, otherwise they could
not rejoice and as penitence is an in-
ternal affection of the mind if they
can sec this. They can surely hear our
prayers.
That the same is true of the saints is
evident for the saints are as the angels
of God in heaven (Matt. xxii-31.) They
are equal to the angels (Luke xx-36.)
Now therefore where thou didst pray
said the angel to Tobias I did present
thy prayers to the Lord (Tobias xii-12.)
We have positive proof in Holy Scrip
ture that they pray for us. The angel
of the Lord answered and said 0 Lord
of Hosts how long will thou not have
mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities
of Judah with which thou hast been
angry these three score and ten years
and the Lord answered the angel that
talked with mo with good words and
comfortable words (Zach. i-12). Here
four things are proved, an angel takes
an interest in Jerusalem and the cities
of Judah he knows that God is angry
with them and even how long God was
so he intercedes for there and God at-
tends to -leis intercession. Our Blessed
Lord tells us that His Father will honor
those who serve Him. Now the angels
and saints have served him in the most
perfect manner, therefore God Himself
honors the saints and angels, therefore
we may honor t.henl. Passage
after passage of Holy scripture
could he quoted in defence of
Catholic doctrine on ` this as on
every doctrine she teaches, but as
My letter is getting too lengthy I will
close by just referring to one or two
points which my friend H. D. S. has
raised. This tall young man who went
through all the prescribed ceremonies
barefooted has evidently touched a
tender spot in the heart of your corres-
pondent and he no doubt believes that
he went barefooted by order of the
priest, but perhaps he would rather go
barefooted:than have hard peas in his
hoots.
Seriously, H. D. S., this young man
who has excited your sympathy is evi-
dently a man of faith, taking St. Paul
for his model, chastising his body in
the way hisconsciencedirected; he was
travelling on the only safe road to
salvation, the Royal road of the Cross,
a road that all the' Saints of God have
travelled. Our Blessed Redeemer tra-
velled over the same 14 stations on His
way to Calvary and He says that He
left us an example that we ,night
follow in his footsteps. He says not
every one who saith, Lord, Lord, shall
enterinto the Kingdom of Heaven, hut
he that doeth the will of my Father,
&c. The Apostle says as the body
without- the soul is dead so is faith
without works, wherefore brethren
labor the more that by good works, &c.
(2 Peter 1-10). St. Paul practices corpor-
al punishment ; object: that he might
not become a castaway, I chastise my
hodv, &c. 1 Cor. ix -27 blessed are the
dead who die in the Lord, they rest
from their labors and their works do
follow thele (Apoc. xiv-13.) H. D. S.
has another serious charge and quotes
a passage of scripture condemning
what does not exist. He found the
basement of the church set apart for
the sale of crosses, beams, medals, &c.,
and his religious mind is generously
troubled abont Roane, a shocking Roulet
she allows the faithful to buy and
carry away as mementos at the sacred
shrine articles of devotion, the proceeds
of which instead of tilling the coffers
of the church goes to the support of
widow and orphan to build hospitals,
asylums, &c., and let me whisper in
your ear "H. D. S." Those articles were
for sale in the basement, consequently
your charge of selling in the temple Is
knocked out of court. The basement
of the different Protestant churches
throughout the country are used for
raising money legitimately for church
purposes and I have never heard a
murmur. In conclusion, my friend H.
D, S,. before you make any more
charges even in a 'gentlemanly way
read up Catholic doctrine, exatnine her
claim, don't believe what her enemies
say and I have no doubt you will
arrive at very different conclusions.
Yours, &c.,
CATHOLIC.

I, George English, shipbuilder, have
lived in Chatham, N. S., over forty
years. Last spring I took severe pains
in- my knee, which, combined with
swelling, laid me up for six weeks, dur-
ing which time I endured great suffer-
ing. I saw South American Rheumatic

World and procured a bottle. Within
twenty •four .hours I was absolutely free
from rheumatism, and have not been

GEORGE CHESTER'S HXSTARE
"Charity, kind sir! My poor child-
ren are starving!"
The speaker was a thinly elad wo-
man, who shivered in the wintry blast,
for it was December, and the keen.
frosty air penetrated even the warn;
garments of the rich. The gentleman
addressed was a man of perhaps
thirty -rive, a rich and prosperous man,
who hoped soon to become still more
rich and prosperous through an al-
liance with the fair girl at his side.
"Poor woman!" said Edith Morti-
mer, compassionately. " I have left my
Parse at home. George, I am sure you
will relieve her distress."
"Of course I will, my darling. Here,
poor woman, take that, and may it do
you good!"
As he spoke he drew from his vest-
pocket a two -dollar bill, and put It
into the extended hand of the appli-
cant. The poor woman's heart bound-
ed with joy, for she had hoped for but
twenty-five cents at the beat, and two
dollars seemed to her positive wealth.
"Heaven bless your generous heart,"
she exclaimed, with heartfelt gratitude,
"Thank you," said George Chester,
graciously.
Edith Mortimer awarded him with a
beaming. smile.
"I am glad you gave the poor crea-
ture so much," she said. "I like gen-
erosity. I don't think I could respact
or esteem a mean man,
"We think alike on that point," my
darling," said Chester. "I never can
refuse to give, even if I suspect the ob-
ject may be unworthy. It makes me
happy to, make others happy,"
Another beaming glance from Edith.
"I love you all the better for that,
dear George,' she said, in a low voice.'
"On the whole," thought Chester, "my
two dollars are a good Investment,
though I can't help grudging it to the
beggar. When Edith becorrres Mrs.
Chester, and I get hold of her irun-
dred thousand dollars, she shan't give
many two dollar bills to beggars, For
the present, it's policy to be generous."
Of course Edith could not read the
thoughts of the man at her side. She
believed him to he a genuine philan-
thropist, while, in reality, he was a
mean, selfish, hard-hearted man, yet
with tact enough to overcome these
traits for the sake of making a favor-
able Impression upon the heart of the
heiress,
Edith Mortimer was an orphan, and
the absolute mistress of a, hundred
thousand dollars; no small fortune for
a girl of nineteen. But her fortune was
by no means her chief attradtlon;-^She
was beautiful, sweet -tempered, accom-
plished, and her heart was animated
by the most generous charity. She had
it regular list of pensioners, and would
haves found it impossible to refuse„an
applicant who was in need. Doubtless
she had often given to unworthy ob-
jects, but such mistakes redound to the
,credit of those who make them.
As Edith said; she would have found
it Impossible to respect or esteem a
mean man. Thus far, George Chester
had succeeded in conceal.ng his real
character from her, but the time was
Doming when It would .be revealed.
Whenever he was with her he gave
liberally to any who asked for char-
ity, but at his store he would have
repulsed them with hard and bitter
words. He kept a large clothing store
in one of the principal streets in Bos-
ton, but Edith, who lived on Mount
Vernon street, had never been there
and knew absolutely nothing of him in
his business relations.
Of course, there were many who
courted the favor of the young and
beautiful heiress, but there was only
cne who came near being the rival of
the successful suitor. This was Doctor
Goodwin, a young physician, who had
recently established himself in the
city, and was having a hard struggle
to get into a lucrative practice, being
poor and without powerful friends. But
he was essentially noble, of good fig-
ure, with a frank, open face, and un-
usually able and intelligent, Success
with him was only a matter of time.
When he saw the rich trader pre-
ferred to him, he quietly withdrew,
disappointed, but too honorable to at-
tempt to reverse Edith's decision now
that it appeared to be duly made.
It was made, and the wedding -day
was about to be fixed, when something
occurred whloh quite changed the po-
sition of affairs.
Edith was walking on the Tremont
street mall in Boston Common, when
her attention was attracted to a girl
of about her own age who was sitting
on one of the stone seats placed there
tor the use of tired pedestrians. The
girl was plainly dressed, and in her
face and attitude was such an air of
despondency that Edith, whose heart
was full of compassion for the wretch-
ed, felt herself constrained to stop and
speak to her.
"Are you not well," she asked, In
a low, sympathetic voice.
The girl, who was very thinly and
poorly clad, looked up.
"Yes," she answered. "I am well."
"But you are sad. You have met
with some misfortune, have you not?"
"Yes," answered the girl, despondent-
ly.
"Will you tell me what it Is? Perhaps
it is something which I can remedy.
Don't think me inquisitive, but I really
want to help you if you will let me."
The girl answered gratefully,
"Thank you for your kindness. It
does me good for I stand in need of
kind words.
"Tell me then of your trouble," and
Edith, In her sealskin sacque, sat down
beside the plainly dressed girl.
"My mother and I live together," ex-
plained the girl. "We are very poor,
and mother is an invalid, unable to do
much. We have nothing to live upon
except what I can earn by my needle."
"That must be very little."
"Yes, it is very little; but I have been
defrauded out of that little. It Is too
hard." .
"Tell me about It. Is it possible that
any one could be so mean as to cheat
you out of the little you earn in that
hard way?"
"I will tell you how it happened- A
week since, I got a bundle of vests to
make for a large house. The pay was
very small. By working early and
late I could earn about twenty-five
cents a day."
"Is It possible?" I never heard of
such oppression,' said Edith, indignant-
ly.
"Well, I finished the half-dozen, and
this morning took them around to the
store. Instead of paying the money,
the proprietor, a rich man, Bald rough-
ly that they were not well done, and
be could only pal fifteen cents a piece
for them. If I would take that he
would give me more work. .1 knew It
was ail a preteps4 tc cheat me out of
ten cents on each vest, for I" am an ex-
perienced vestmaker, and these were
imade as well as usual.'
� "And did yotf take the money, my
poor friend ?" asked Edith.
"What could I do? There was no
money, to buy our dinner. I had to
take it, but I know that it is impossible
for us to get along on that paltry sum.
I see nothing for us but starvation."
"Cheer up!. I am rich! I will he'p
you!" said the helresS. "But tell me
the name of this mean wretch who de-
frauded you."
"It is George Chester."
"Who?" exclaimed Edith, startled
and surprised.
"George Chaster. I hear he is en-
gaged to a wealthy heiress, but I don't
think such a man can prosper."
'I must look into this," said Edith,
quickly, her face flushed. "It is more
important to me than you know. Come
to my house."
The girl accompanied her home, and
presently the heiress, who had changed
garments with the poor girl for a
brief space, emerged into the street and
made her way to the store of George
Chester. She was so muffled up that
her face could not be seen.
"What do you• want?" asked a sales-
man, roughly.
'To see Mr. Chester," answered Edith
in a low voice.
"He is busy. He can't see a girl like
you.,"
"I have something important to say
to him."
George Chester, on being told this,
came forward.
"Well, gill, what dt you want of
me?" he asked, rudely.
"You gave me only fifteen cents for
some vests I brought here this morn-
ing," said Edith, in an assumed voice.
"What of that'? They were poorly
made,"
"I need the money for my mother.
I worked hard, and I am sure the
vests were well made."
"Look here! I can't be troubled with
you," said Chester, roughly. "I gave
you ail the work was ivorth,"
"My mother will starve."
"Let her starve, then. It's no business
of mine."
This was toy much for Edith, whose
indignation was intense.
She threw up her veil, revealing to
George Chester a face that terrified
him, so full was it of withering
scorn.
"I am glad I have found you out,
Mr. Chester," said Edith. "Fortunate-
ly, it is not too late," and she turned
haughtily and swept out of the store.
"Edith! Edith 'Mortimer!" called
George Chester, in an agitated tone.
"Come back. It's all a mistake. I will
make it right."
Edith did not answer, nor turn back,
but left the store with her illusions
broken.
The next day it was announced In
society that the engagement was bro-
ken, Three months later there was a
new engagement, but this time it was
Dr. Goodwin who had gained the
prize for which so many were striving.
The poor girl roon obtained remun-
erative employment through Edith's in-
fluence, and she and her mother never
again knew want.
As f- r George Chester, he rued bit-
terly his fatal mistake; but for Edith
it was a most fortunate one, since it
saved her from marrying a man whom
she would have despised, and gave her
a husband whom she could respect as
well as love.
LIGHT, BUT NO HEAT.
A Young Now Jersey Inventor Claims That
He is Able to do Tbie Little Trick.
A young New Jersey electrician, D.
McFarlan Moore, claims to have dis-
covered the secret of the firefly. In
other words, he insists that he can
make light without heat, in accord-
ance with a new principle of muscular
vibration.
He proposes to emulate the glow-
worm, and, instead of having the pros.
'ent red-hot, hairpin filament in the or-
dinary incandescend light, he will
make the whole surface of the glass
glow with a brilliant illumination,
Mr. Moore's experiments have been
directed along the lines of a new prin.
ciple in electricity, which he claims to
have discovered. He maintains that,
theoretically, there is no more reason
why we cannot have light without heat
'hen there is why we cannot strike a
chord on the piano without striking
all the keys in order to have music.
He claims to , be able to separate the
several divisions of energy and em-
ploy only Illuminating elements. He
employs the ordinary current of 110
volts, and from this gets a light that
compares very favorably with sun-
shine, so far as obtaining a good photo-
graphic negative is concerned. Indeed,
he asserts that a one -volt current is
enough to accomplish illumination.
He expects one of these days to sell
sticks of light, about the size of a stick
of candy, that will burn for 48 hours.
They will be a sort of storage battery
that a man can carry around in his
vest pocicet. At night all that is nec-
essary to be done is to pres.A the but-
ton and you have a bright light.
His laboratory Is in Harrison, N. J.,
and iecently a party of eleetriral ex-
perts examined his new apparatus for
producing light without heat. The ma-
chinery employed by him is said to ba
very simple, and the present commer-
cial current of 110 volts will be enough
for nearly 100 lamps.
Under the present incandescent lamp
lighting the heat amounts to- 99 per
cent. of the energy; under Mr. Moore's
system nearly all this Is saved, so bhat
the cost of his lamps is reduced very
much. When the current is turned on
and the lamps become phosphorescent
the bulbs are as cold as if they had
been in an Ice -box. The whole surface
of the lamp is Illuminated, and not
merely the filament or hairpin, as In
the present incandescent lamp. The
effect of the new light fs said to be
something exceedingly brilliant. He
proposes to use tube in big halls and
churches.
