A Warm Welcome. His Grace, wno was received with prolonged applause, said that it was indeed with great pleasure that he came tc Subiaco, to bless and lay the foundation stone of the beautiful new church for Monsignor Vesting. It was through the generosity of the people of Subiaco that a goodly sum had been set aside for this new church, which supplied a great need. The spacious hall had supplied their needs for many years, hut now it was too mall for the Hence congregations that attended. the imperative need of a new church that would be worthy of Subiaco and its people--a .church whose outlines of graceful beauty he could already (Hs. tinguish.

THE RECORD. Hence he congratulated the Monsignor and his people for the realisation of their hearts' desire. The new edifice would assuredly be a worthy addition to the architectural beauties of their city. It was centrally situated at the junction of the old Subiaco and the new, and he ventured to say that the new would dwarf the old. The Monsignor had invited them to inspect the building for themselves/ but before doing so, he would ask them to put their hands in their pockets and show their appreciation of his work in a practical manner. He trusted that the generous response of the people that day would give fresh hope and courage to Monsignor and his committee, and thus help to wipe out some of the debt. Once again he congratulated Monsignor Verling and his parish!loners for the great work they had accomplished, and any help he could give them, as long as God gave him strength, he would gladly give them. ( Prolonged applause.) Monsignor Verling then called upon His Grace the Coadjutor Archbishop.

Nearby, tradition says, are the ruins an older college, which this one replaced. There is also a well called Bishop Hayes' Well, which the local people reverence. The local people are tremendously proud of the 'College' and the tradition of the place is just as much alive as though the seminary had been in full swing only yesterday. They tell how, when warning was given to the college of the coming of "redcoats," the students escaped down the ladder into the hills, or donned farm clothes and tools and, with Bishop Hayes as the farmer, became temporary farm hands. Even to this day this district by the Dee and the Don is predominantly Catholic and. says Father Wadsworth, there are in the glens some beautiful Catholic churches.

They the Brahmins of the North: the were Irish were the "Untouchables," So advance of ritual or belief which any would assimilate their religion in the smallest degree with that of the despised was an abhorrence to them. TheCelts, dead bones, dead for centuries, were not capable of revival from the breath across the Channel. When their Church got independence in 1879, there was no further chance of a revival. The power over doctrine and ritual was put into the hands of a laity full of pride, but utterly empty of theological know. ledge. The laity have twice the voting power of the clergy. And latter!v their Church has come thoroughly under the power of Orangeisrn, a wild fierce parody of the Christian religion. It can move downwards in the rejection of doctrine, but cannot take one step upwards towards the expression of Catholic belief, symbolism or sentiment. When Bishop Day, of Ossory, at a Synod a couple of years ago moved to have a simple cross placed on the Communion Table, a veritable storm of protest was raised against the measure, and he was deteated by the vote of the laity. Without money it would sink to nothing, but the crisis of Disestablishment left it richly en(lowed.

Of course each one of the four will try to win you to her side, and it will be difficult to choose. One would like to be on each of their sides, hut that is not what the princesses desire. You see, though they are ;Royal Highnesses. each one of them is naturally anxious to receive the crown of victory from the hands of His Grace. And wouldn't you, if' you were a princess? We cannot say who will he the lucky one. but you can see how they stand now by a glance at the votes. Of course there are some weeks remaining, and those weeks mean much.

The lantern lectures on the Mass will continue this Sunday. and next Sunday evenings. Last Sunday the beach proved too much of an attraction, but we hope the Gascoyne, which controls our weather, will make things cooler next Sunday. Our congratulations to Miss Marie Agnes McEncme, who gained first place with distinction in Grade IV. of the Alliance Francaise examinations, and to Miss Joan L. Bridger, for her distinction, and to Miss Mary G. Patterson, for her pass, So if you have any doubts at-out your "parley-vous," send them along to either of these Young ladies.
Parish of Toodyay Baker's Fon. Congratulations are unstintingly sent out to Miss V. Matthews and Mrs. Rankine, of Baker's IIill, for their most successful dance, held on November 4th. Not only was this function financially successful, but also socially, it has merited favourable comment from those in attendance. There's nothing succeeds like success, so we're expecting even bigger things from Baker's Hill next year. P ersonal Mrs. Quinn, of Nedlands, who had c ome to Toodyay for a few days. returned to the city on Saturday. November 11th. Mrs. H. Corbett left on November 16. after having spent the past few weeks in our midst. This good lady, by her genial disposition, is fast winning the hearts of the Toodyav folk, and wc venture to prophesy that they will demand her early return. Mundaring. General regret was felt in Mundaring when it became known that Miss M. Scott, a veritable pillar of the Church, was about to leave the district. Miss Scott has worked indefatigably and generously for the Church of the Sacred Heart. Mundaring, and, although she has now left the district, we are delighted to learn that she intends still taking an interest in our church affairs. It is ne presumption to hope that, so keen is Miss Scott in Mundaring affairs, she will coon be with us again. Prior to her devarture, a ladies' committee in Misa Scott to afternoon tea, ancl presented her with a small token of appreciation and goodwill. On the same occasion the parishioners also bade farewell to Mrs Flynn. from Vietoria, who had been for some months the guest of Mrs. McCracken. During her stay in the West. Mrs. Flynn had been deeply interested in the affairs of the Nfundaring church, and hence the ladies showed their appreciation by
presenting her with a beautiful Treasury of the Sacred Heart. The presentations were made by Mrs, J. Stokes, and the guests of honour suitably responded A most enjoyable afternoon was spent.

Advice has been received that teams with numerous supporters are coming from Victoria and South Atts As far as is known at present tralia. New South Wales will be only sending a women's team, although a number of men and women supporters are also coming. It is anticipated that visitors will also come from Queensland. Tasmania, arid our own country clubs. The Shaftesbury Hotel will certainly be a live place this Christmas, when the Catholic tennis enthusiasts foregather there. Social Events. A wonderful house party was held at the Hotel Cecil. Cannington. last Monday week, when about 100 members of the Association and their friends gathered to celebrate. During the evening, Mr. McGillivray, chairman of the social committee, expressed the thanks of the Association to Mr and Mrs. Brophy for their kindness in placing their home at the disposal of the committee, and to the Brophy family for the great work they had done in organising the evening and preparing for the guests. This was carried with acclamation, and the singing of "For they are jolly good fellows." ((The Artistes" were appropriately thanked. as also were the visitors, who were not members of the Association. During the evening an excellent musical programme- was submitted. Forthcoming Events.

On October 22, at Abergowrie, 26 miles from Ingham, North Queensland, the Right Rev. Dr. McGuire blessed and laid the foundation stone of the Farm School of St. Theresa. Experienced farmers commend Bishop McGuire for his practical undertaking. His Lordship has chosen 690 acres of the best of the fertile Abergowrie lands suitable for cane growing. The farm school land has a frontage of nearly one mile to the Herbert River. It is intended to open the College for pupils next March; the public ceremony will take place next July. In his address on the occasion, His Lordship said: "On the opening day we will have spent £5,000. and have put. we hope, ake people on land that was unpopu. lated and undeveloped." The Christian Brothers will have charge of the school. The first and important work of this Catholic Farm School. says Bishop McGuire. is to train and teach its Pupils to be devoted. intelligent Catholics. We are of the European race, and therefore of European culture. Fundamentally. European culture owes its traits and its genius to the Catholie Faith.

November, the month of the Holy Souls, is already well on it, way. It reminds us of the consoling claims of the Holy Souls upon the suffrages of the faithful. Indeed there is such reason and common sense in the idea of Purgatory, and such consolation in the efficacy of prayers for the departed, that many have joined the true Church out of consideration of this doctrine alone. The Council of Trent re-affirmed the traditional teaching: "The Catholic Church, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, has always taught in her Councils, and this Synod now declares, that there is a Purgatory, and that the souls there detained are helped by the suffrages of the faithful, but principally by the acceptable Sacrifice of the Altar." •
Saturday, November 18,
"Prayer, almsgiving, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. and Holy Communion are particularly efficacious for the souls of the departed. The solicitude of the Church requires that the faithful departed be mentioned seven times a day in the Divine Office, and wherever an altar is erected, no priest ever offers the Holy Sacrifice without a memento for the dead. Every year. on the second of November, the Church militant commemorates all members•of the Church suffqring, and invokes aid for those who have still to She reminds us of the pay the debt due to the justice of God. plaintive voices that arise from the desolate regions of Purgatory— "Have pity on me. have pity on me, at least vou my friends, for the hand of the Lord has touched me.* The Church triumphant in Heaven reveals a similar sympathy. The angels themselves, in accordance with the doctrine of the Communion of Saints, give their aid to ihe suffering souls. It is a pious tradition that the guardian angels descend to the gates of the pri?on house with their charges, and offer to God the prayers and good works done on earth in favour of those souls by their sorrowing relatives and friends. The great Cardinal Newman refers to this sympathetic interest in "The Dream of Grrontius": "Farewell, hut not for ever, brother dear. Be brave and patient on thy bed of sorrow; Swiftly shall pass thy night of trial here. And I shall come and wake thee on the morrow." November. the month of the Holy Souls, reminds us yearly ot our debt of charity. There is no duty which appears so evident, vet there are few obligations more liable to he overlooked. Parents or children, brothers or sisters. may be anxiously awaiting the aid which never comes, or comes too tardily. Yet at some time or other they. may have denied themselves of the necessaries of life, or even neglected their religious duties, out of solicitude for those who now forget them. It may be that they passed out of life without making any provision for Masses out of the wealth which their heirs now enjoy. But the bond of blood relationship should be sufficient in itself to excite our sympathy and enlist our aid The Holy Souls may be succoured by prayers and good 'works. but particularly by the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Let us not he deaf to the touching entreaty: "Have pity on me, have pity on me. at least vou my friends, for the hand of the Lord has touched

For the past few years. Christmas has been heralded in Perth by a Garden Fete in the Palace Grounds. This year must not be an exception. Our Gothic gem still stands on its commanding site, but is still shadowed by the mist of debt. Each recurring year places upon us the obligation of doing our best to free God's dwelling. It may take some years to accomplish this task, but the more consistently and enthusiastically we labour the Then St. sooner will that time be. Mary's. free, will be a Gothic poem that will tell us of the dauntless spirit that undertook its structure and of the endless sacrifices of its loyal people that transformed it into a Gothic gem of human sacrifice. Surely there is something that every Catholic should work for? St. Mary's will tell the story of their sacrifice when they are gone, and its spire pointing heavenwards will mark the home where they receive their real reward. Why Catholics Support St. Mary's. Some few days ago, in conversation with a non-Catholic friend. I was asked this question: "How is it that your people give so unstintingly to, their Church?" My answer may amuse you. but here it is: "Our Catholic people are rp independanr. and they like payHowing for everything they get." ever, the real explanation is FAITH, which makes of temples of stone living temples of the loving God. Catholics believe that their Church is the dwelling place of God on earth—a place where the radiant souls of little ones are adorned with the virtue and endowed with the gift of Faith. where the expanding mind is tinctured with the gift of Faith and the young heart impregnated with its truths as the years advance, and where through God's grace and the preaching of His word countless souls are won back to Catholics believe .their the fold. Church to be the place where the great work of sanctification commenced by Jesus Christ on Calvary is daily carried on; where infant souls ars robed in sanctifying grace— where, when about to be exposed to the assaults of the flesh and the violence of .external
temptation, they are ssrengthened by a special grace of Christian fortitude in Confirmation: where when sur.k in sin and entangled in the coil of evil habits, the healing hand of Jesus Christ will touch the dead soul and heal its wounds in the Sacrament of Penance; where Calvary's Sacrifice is daily renewed; where nuptial bonds are blessed, and from where, when life's energies are wanted, Jesus Christ Himself will go to purify the soul yet more by His grace and to temper and soothe the pains of Death by the sweetness of His presence. Small wonder, then, that Catholics love their Church: small wonder that they are bound to it with bonds stronger than steel; small wonder that their life is one unending sacriAce in its interest. If Catholic people are thus bound up with their Church, they are linked with their Ca thedral in a more especial way. A Cathedral is the Church of the Archdiocese. the Primal Seat of Doctrine, the Home of the Chief Pastor of Christ's sheepfold. As such it has a claim, not merely on the people living under the shadow of its sacred precincts, but upon all the faithful—a claim which our faithful have always realised and time out of number acknowledged. Encouraged by past support. we are confident of the success of this year's Cathedral Garden Fete. The Fete will he opened by Dr. Pren. divilk on Wednesday.

THE LITTLE FLOWER SHRINE APPEAL LAUNCHED SAINT AND APOSTLE A ROSE PETAL OF LISIEUX. Remarkable Facts Stated by PriestScientist. During the year 192j a small rosepetal was found on the grave of St. Teresa of the Child Jesus, and of the Holy Face (The Little Flower) at Lisieux, upon which was visible, on the left top corner, a remarkable Face of Christ, which has a certain resemblance to the miraculous image of the Saviour that %vas designed by the Rev. Mother M. Theolinde Dubouche, foundress of the ''Reparatrices de la Rue d'Ulm," after a vision—the famous "Linceul (Holy Shroud) of Turin." The impression has also a great resemblance to the magnificent head of Christ that was engraved on emerald by the order of Tiberius, now treasured in the Vatican. The little petal was immediately placed between two leaves of mica, and set in a gold medallion. Deceribing it in the "Fiulletin du Saint Suaire" (Holy Shroud). Rev. Father Noguier de Malijay wrote (July, 1928): "I undertook to photograph this precious little object, and took it away to my laboratory, where it remained for a long time and was studied through a very powerfnl microscope by many technicians and doctors. and also by myself After numerous trials I have managed to reproduce the petal in all its integrity. "The little rose-petal. yellow and dried up. bears id the top left-hand corner a head of Christ, three-quarters of which is perfectly visible The eyes are lowered and the nose fairly long. has a wound in the centre, which rather alters the drawirw. On the left of this most impressionable phy-
siognomy there is a fold in the petal which forms a sort of veil on the right side of the face, while, to the left, limiting the left side of the face, there is a light band which seems to have been slightly moved to one side and drawn up; this is probably due to the petal having dried up." Two white lines on the right-hand side of the photo. form a right angle. These represent two folds in the petal which at one time got somewhat crumpled. • Father Malijay continued: "As I was studying this strange little petal through the microscope, examining it from every possible angle, I suddenly had the clear vision of the ball of an open eye, which seemed to stare at me. The lens was at that moment focussed under the right eyebrow. I then directed the lens to the left, and immediately found another eyeball which had the same effect on me. And thus, above the lowered and nearly closed eyes which one can see quite clearly in the little photograph, which give a gentle aspect to the physiognomy, and which can be compared to several of the Holy Faces—amongst others to that of the Linceul (Holy Shroud) ot Turin—one can distinguish quite clearly two open eyes which, by their position under the eyebrows, correspond quite distinctly to those of the Holy Face of the Holy Shroud of Turin: the nose is also the same. The petal is about three-quarters of an inch long, and half an inch wide. Various microphotographs of different parts of the petal show that it is absolutely natural and has not been touched by human hand.
THE POPE AND THE PILGRIMS. E very day the number of pilgrims appears to be increasing in Rome; crowds follow crowds; the Pope's days are indeed full, and the cessation of the kissing of his hand appears to have made no difference in the amount of time he has to devote to the audiences assigned for the day. To give an example, on September 22, His Holiness received 3,000 French pilgrims, before which he had accorded a general audience, and during the afternoon he addressed 3,000 Spanish pilgrims. We only refer to one day, but similar work follows day after day, and we must acknowledge that, in spite of the deep paternal interest Pius XI. takes in his flock, these audiences must cause fatigue, especially during the past Summer in Rome. Yet, thank God, the Holy Father continues well and vigorous: nothing about him indicates fatigue. His Holiness has on two occasions recently expressed gratitude to St. Therese of Lisieux for her prayers that this might be so. As we have already informed our readers, the Holy Father told Msgr. Sloskan, the prelate who suffered so severely when a captiNie of Soviet Russia, that he attributes this marvellous endurance to the protection of the little Carmelite saint. More recently the Pontiff has made Ffie same statement to the Archbishop of Rheims. Every morning His Holiness invokes St. Therese and confides the work of the day to her prayers. B. Sienne, writing in "La Croix" with reference to this fact, says that Pope Pius, XI. also attributes his resistance. to fatigue during the Jubilee Year to the prayers of St. Therese. and that it would seem that she is not satisfied

Over 20,000 people took part in the procession around St. Mary's Basilica, including the Apostolic Delegate, who carried the Blessed Sacrament, Archbishop Kelly, Dr. Dwyer, and Dr. Fox. Huge crowds lined the route of the progession—starting at the Basilica, thence by College-street, Boomerangstreet, Haig-avenue, Sir John Young'ssrescent, St. Mary's-road, and back via College-street and Cathedral-street. Voices were raised at intervals in hymns by those in the procession, and these vocal supplications were taken up among the assemblage.

THE RECORD.
A unt Bessy's Nieces and Nephews TRAGIC SET-BACK TO GREAT ADVENTURE. Aunt Bess y At tacked by Mosquitoes. ( Special to the Corner by Tiddles.) Since the correspondence section of this week's Corner was attended to, a terrific onslaught has been made upon Aunt Bessy by seven hundred and seventy-nine mosquitoes of the latest 1934 summer model. Aunt Bessy, who is widely known in the Catholic circles of W.A. as the private secretary to His Majesty, King Kevin O'Doherty Waters, official beggar for the Bushies, and the aunty of the beloved and illustrious Company of Cornerites, is now sick Yes, she has been well and truly declared sick by the doctor, and all with whom he has conferred with concern. ing her, and stil the sun keeps shining in the day and the stars play hide and seek through the night. It all goes to show how little they know what's taking place here on earth. Aunt Bessy, the poor old benign looking lady, who never had to hold on to a strap in a bus when there was a gentleman occupying a seat, and who was not afraid to start off on a hike extending over seven months _in search of 1300 for the Bushies, has now been rendered hors de combat by an army of those little wretches men call mosquitoes. How terrible to think of! f low sad to visualise! No more for her bright smiling youth With merry song invites. by enemies uncouth. She's prostrate from their bites.
_ stricken
Being a cat. and not given to verse, I'm afraid there is something uncouth about the above attempt, .so perhaps, drawing on your imagination a little. I can give you a better pen-picture of your poor Aunty by recalling a rhyme that may be familiar to many of you: -Poor Aunty May is very, very sick. And what shall we send here A piece of pudding or a piece of pie? Or a piece of apple dumpling? What shall we send it by? By the Governor's daughter. The Governor's daughter is not in, So we'll send it by the water." The heat wave without the mosquitoes would have been enough to settle A.B., and the only conclusion we can draw is that the 'old boy" must have organised an army of these perfidious insects in order to retard the activity o f the Great Adventure. Therefore. in Aunt Bessy's name, I. Tiddles, her cat, implore you not to slacken in your efforts to gather in the V.00. or it will probably put the finishing touches on the sufferer who, in her wanderings, is trying to solve how it is that Rev. Father Kenny has succeeded in gathering in over £1,500 for the Little Flower Shrine without even hayAling had to write a poem for it. though only partly interested now in her three meals a day. it is wonderful how anything regarding the work of the Brigade revives the patient, and doctoi and nurse were delighted to note the energy with which she insisted on her portable and prick cards being brought to her bedside on the day following the attack, when she received a letter from a zealous knight asking for folly Wallflowers. This gives us hope that her siekness is not unto death, and that an increase of inte,-est in the L.B. will do more towards effecting her complete recovery- than a piece of pudding or a piece of pie. When interviewed to-day, the Editor and Cardinal Protector were restrained and non-committal in their remarks. and very disinclined to answer questions as to what would happen if A unt Bessy is not able to resume duty z;t the office next week. , There would be no difficulty in filling her place. they said. as far as the Aunty-ship NN•ent, as already several dear old ladies and four or five nice gentlemen were most desirous to beo-me aunties. The chief troeble would be in securing the proper custodian of the Lemonade Bottle, as there was always a certain danger attached to bottles, and a greater strain was imposed on those whose task it was to re-fill rather than empty any bottle that had been the container of something so agreeably drinkable as lemonade. Out of respect for Aunt Bessy's dislike to publicity, no bulletins would be nostel up outside "The Record" e ffice regarding her health, but it is understood that the Cardinal Protector and Leading Lady will answer all inquiries, and if the worst comes to the v.orst the Wet Blanket will edit the corner nest week.
Nedlands. Dear Aunt Bessy,—I suppose you must be thinkingI am as false as some of the eggs that have "new-laid" notices on them, but I have been laid aside with influenza all over me for the last three weeks, and now I am writing to you in bed, as I have sixpence belonging to you, and I can't sleep at night in case I'll die and the Bushies will never get it. I am not too well at all, and can't eat much. Everyone who come to see me brings me stuff that I would give my eyes for if I was going around with my ordinary legs, and even Mum doesn't seem to know how to do things when a chap is sick. You'd think I was obliged to go back to one-cow.mille the way she fusses, and Dad comes and stands at the bottom of my bed and says: "Sandy boy, you mustn't peg out this time, you know. The price of coffins hasn't fallen yet, so your family canna bury you." It's got me down, and I feel depressed, and I wish You could come and see me, though i heard that you look pretty depressed yourself. Father Moss said he would ask you to come and see rue, because he said he got you a front seat the day of the consecration, did he, Aunty? (He did. God bless him.) This sixpence I am serding you is the profits from that banana skin stunt you asked me to do during Show week. It w asn't very successful, and I only could get one banana skin out of Mum because she keeps them to polish Dad's tan boots with, and she only buys a banana every second Saturday night when they are due for a cleaning.
me drop the old banana skin and lie in wait for somebody to fall. I tried to explain that it was your stunt for gettin money for the Bushies, but they reckoned no woman could ever think out anything so villainous, so in the end I thought I'd better give them a shilling each and make sure of the sixpence for the Bushies, so I hope you will he satisfied, as I think the worry of it brought on the 'flu. I've tried to help you another way as well. I have written a poem about you, which I trust will bring in some money. Mum and Dad and the Professor think it is great. I wrote it while I have been in bed, but Mum would only let me write two lines each day, as she was afraid I it would raise my temperature. will hope you will come to see me, because it might just happen that I'!1 (lie. Mum brought me in some strawberries and cream, and I told her to give them to Nell, so I'm sure T must be more sick than they give me credit for.—Your respectful nephew, SANDY McDOUGALL Dear Sandy,—You are a hero, and I will certainly come to see you if I am allowed. I think you acted wisely regarding the banana skin profits, though it does seem a pity that we only got Sd. out of all your valianti stratagems. Peter O'Loughlin and Jimmy Stead need never hope to become my nephews, as I wouldn't have them, and you can tell them so from me. I am charmed with your poem .and will print it this week, but excuse me for contradicting your statement that I'm fading to a shadow—rather. I am spreading out in all difFctions, just like the germ of influenza which I hope you have not sent along to me. We all trust you will soon he your own bright self again, and that Dad won't have to haggle with the coffin-maker AUNT BESSY. this time.
The day it was Children's Day at the Show I took the skin with me, and had to wait twenty minutes for a catch. It was worse than trying to rob a bank trying to drop the skin itist when I saw somebody coining, and five people passed it and walked November 5, 1933. around it instead of stepping, on to it. Dear Aunt Bessy.—I would like to so I thought it was going to be a failure.

A t the convent," saick the sergeant "Oh and did you succeed, sir?" asked the constable. -No, I did not," replied the sex.geant grumpily. "I was given substantially the same tale as Yourself. I am beaten on how to proceed with this case. Have you anything to suggest constable?" "I was thinking, sergeant," said the constable, ''that perhaps the best thing to do would be to communicate with the man who has reported the loss of a horse. Inform him that we have located a horse that has recently come into the possession of certain persons who haven't been able to give tangible and satisfactory proof of a previous owner, but before proceeding further we should like him to come and see the horse himself." "The very, thing, constable," exclaimed the sergeant. "See that he is written to to-day and make arrangemerits for him to call at this office first and we can afterwards proceed to the convent." "Very good, eir, replied the constable. . . . . 'Yes. sir, as I was saying. the constable here and myself have been making inquiries, not without some suecess. I may tell you, and we have its cated an institution where they have recently acquired a new horse, and I want you to see it for yourself That is the reason why I have asked you to attend here this morning." The sergeant addressed these words to the stranger who now sat opposite to him in the police office. He , communicated this information with an air of self-restraint which seemed to suggest that he knew more than he eared to say at present. Then casting his gaze over to the constable who was standing near he asked: "Isn't that so, omstable?" "Yes, sergeant." The constable spoke rather abruptly for he had been startled out of a reverie by the sergeant's question. and had been running over in his mind what the sergeant" had been telling him just before the arrival of the stranger: that he, the sergeant, had been relating to his wife, both of their e xperiences at the convent, and the upshot of it was that the sergeant's wife had told him very plainly, as a woman can, that if the horse was taxen from the Sisters she would buy, or help to buy, the Sisters another, and it would be out of the sergeant's pinmoney. The sergeant was speaking again. "The Institution where we have discovered a new horse is the Convent of the Little Sisters of the Poor." "Oh!" exclaimed the stranger in mild surprise. "I wish it had been some other place, for I have never in fact I am rather averse to meeting them." "They do good work." put' in the setgeant. "I never doubted it," replied the s tranger, "but that is no help to me in a case of this kind." The sergeant rose up. "I think we will be going," he said. 'before the Sisters get on to the road." They set off for the convent On reaching it the sergeant asked to see the Reverend Mother, and the Sister -who answered the door conducted them to the same sitting-room in which the sergeant had been shown in the cours-e of his duty the day before. In a few minutes the Reverend Mother appeared. 'Good morning." she said. "Good morning, Reverend Mother,' replied the sergeant. "This gentleman, introducing him by name, has heard that you have a new horse, and as he expreesed a desire to see it w: thought you would have no objection to us bringing him along." 10h no!" exclaimed Reverend Mother. ''We have no objection, but -ou must know it is not for sale." "We are quite aware of that. Revere
