The Mighty
Influence
Of Religion.
By Cardinal JAMES GIBBONS.
t ELIGION TEACHES ME
; OF THE SAME FATHER. BROTHERS AND SISTERS
OF THE SAME REDEEMER AND CONSEQUENTLY
MEMBERS OF THE SAME FAMILY. IT TEACHES ME
JL V " THE BROTHERHOOD OF HUMANITY.
ER OF CHARITY, and charity is the guardian of civilty and good
breeding, and good breeding is ono of the essential elements of the
well being of society. Worldly politeness devoid of religion is cold,
formal and heartless. It soon degenerates into hollow ceremony.
Good breeding, inspired by religion and charity, inculcates a constant
SELF DENIAL. It is SINCERE AND UNAFFECTED, it has
the ring of the genuine coin, it passes current everywhere, and it is
easily distinguished from the counterfeit.
The CHRISTIAN RELIGION IS ALL' PERVADING. It
influences the master and the servant, the rich and the poor. It AD
MONISHES THE MASTER TO EE KIND and humane toward
bis servant by reminding him that lie also has a master in heaven who
bas no respect to persons. It ADMONISHES THE SERVANT
TO BE DOCILE AND OBEDIENT to his master, "not serving
to the eye as it were pleasing men, but, a3 the servant of Christ, doing
the will of God from the heart."
It charges the rich not to be high minded NOR TO TRUST IN
UNCERTAIN RICHES, but in the living God, who "giveth us
abundantly all things to enjoy." It counsels the poor to BEAR
THEIR PRIVATIONS WITH RESIGNATION by setting before
them the life of him who, in the words of the apostle, "being rich, be
came poor for your sake, that, through his poverty, you might bo
rich."
t
IN A WORD, RELIGION IS ANTERIOR TO 80CIETY AND MORE
ENDURING) THAN GOVERNMENTS. IT IS THE FOCUS OF ALL 80
CIAL VIRTUES, THE BASIS OF PUBLIC MORALS, THE MOST POW
ERFUL INSTRUMENT IN THE HANDS OF LEGISLATORS. IT 13
STRONGER THAN SELF INTEREST, MORE AWE INSPIRING THAN
CIVIL THREATS, MORE UNIVERSAL THAN HONOR, MORE ACTIVE
THAN LOVE OF COUNTRY.

ERAL WEAKNE8S OF THE EYES.
We are all suffering from Americanitis that "ALMOST DIS
EASE" which is the bane of this country. Everybody who Uvea hero
long enough gets it.
It stands for a lot that is not very desirable, and the long standing
sufferer from Americanitis has to pay for his game. Years of rushing,
cWe application to work, overexertion, TRYING TO CROWD
WEEKS INTO DAYS, burning both ends at once, striving to do
two things at the samo time, laboring not only to get money, but also
to spend it, attempting to bo socially as successful as financially, FOR
GETTING ALL ABOUT LEISURE, trying to make up'by two
weeks' vacation tho wasto of a year all these things tend to
WEAKEN THE SYSTEM.
THE EYES ARE DELICATE ORGANS. THEY CAN 8TAND 80
MUCH AND NO MORE. AND IF THE 8TRAIN ON THEM IS TOO
GREAT THEY MUST GIVE WAY. THAT IS THE REASON WHY
WEAK EYES ARE 80 VERY COMMON.
