The Changes That Come With the Parchmentizing Process. The United States consul, writ- ing from Chemnitz, gives some in teresting, valuable information re garding the waterproofing and parchmentizing of paper by the trer- mans who have given trie subject much study. One method of waterproofing pa per and cardboard consists in treat ing the sheets with a hot mixture of asphalt, turpentine and linseed oil solution of glue. Another con sists of saturating cellulose articles with a solution of rosin in a mix ture of petroleum, linseed oil and paraffin. Solutions of varnish in linseed oil are also used. Still another is by thoroughly soakins articles of paper or cellu lose in a solution of rosin soap and then immersing them in a hot bath of zinc chloride, passed between PHILOMATH SNAPSHOTS.

Mary's Church, "The Blessing of the Candles." The Candlemas Day began to be generally observed about 500 years after Chrst. The intention of the Feast is to bring to our minds the coming to the fern pie of the Blessed Virgin, there to make the offering required by the Mosaic law. According to this law every mother bad to appear in the Temple thirty-three days after she had given birth to a son or sixty-six days after the birth of a daughter. She was required to offer at this visit a three-year old lamb for a holocaust and a young pigeon or f turtle dove for a sin offenne. If too poor to offer a lamb she offered instead a pair of pigeons or turtle doves. According to another ordinance of the Mosaic law, every first born son of Israel was to be dedi cated to the service of the Altar by seven shekels of silver. In compliance with law Mary pre seuted her Divine Son in the Temple on this day, and thirty vears afterward she offered Him on Mt. Calvary to His Heavenly Father as a sacrifice fori the ran som of mankind. This much I with regard to the connection of Candlemas Day with the Puri fication of the Blessed Virgin. Oh this day the candles are blessed and carried lighted in the procession for the following rea sons: First To remind us that the Incarnate Son of God is the true liefet -tbat-cameinto the world to enlighten all men, and that on this day He was carried by His Virgin Mother to the temple and rjreserited as an offering to His Hevenly Father. Second This ceremony re minds us of that moment when the aged Simeon folded the Di vine Child in his arms and with joy exclaimed, "Now my eyes have seen the Light which is to enlighten all nations." Third The burning candles which we hold in our hands re call the words of the Savior. 'Let your light shine before all men that they may see your good wo.ks and glorify your Father who is in Heaven." All Christians must show to all men the ligbt of good ex ample. Finally, the wax of the candles typifies the immaculate flesh of the humanity of Christ. The candles will be blessed next Sunday before the 10:30 o'clock mass, alter which there will be a procession through the church. In the cvenine at 7:30 there will be Vespers, Instruction and Benediction. As next Sunday will be the first Sunday of the month the Sodalites will receive Holy Communion at the 8 o'clock mass. Next Monday, the Feast of S. Blase, the ceremony of the bless ing of the throats will take place after the 8 o'clock mass, also at 12:30 o'clock and at 8 o'cloik in the evening. The blessing is aoainst diseases of the throat. Iu our large cities thousands of Cath lies, and a great many non-Catholics crowd our churches to avail themselves of this blessing. In tbe ceremony the priest prays that the recipient "be delivered through the intercession of St. Blase, bishop and maityr, from all diseases of tbe throat and from all evil. All, even babies and little childien may receive the blessing. Contributed. M.
