ton CatMic Sctool Delasion Tfcoagh Inferior to Protestant Institutions Protestants Patronize them to Sorrow. By ReT. C. P Wembrly Trom The Christian Witness, July 32, 1815. Oar people are asleep on many ital propositions, touohiog life and morali, bat on no point do w teem to be so incapable of be ing aroused ai on the question of Catholicism in general, and Gatho . lio schooli in pattionlar, we menu, of coarse, oar Protestant people. The question of Romish school especially their institutions for girls, presents and anfathomable oonnndram. That system ; we cannot call it a church, as Carlisle has truly called it "the most gi gantic delasion of the ages," has in the faoe of all history, observa tion, and experience created an impression that Catholio schools are the best and most thorough. Jast how this idea has fastened it self upon as is the mystery. Bat it has, and Protestant people are making themselves the henchmen and dopes of Rome by helping to propagate this falsehood. Noth ing oonld be farther from the truth. One mast be in school work to know the extent to which this idea has grown; on the other hand, one mast know the spirit and ani mus of Rome to understand why she has dotted our land with acad emies and convents, equaling in numbers and building display all suoh institutions of Protestantism combined. Someone who doubts the situa tion toathing the relation of two systems of education should ex plain how it is that our Protest ant schools must put men in the field and campaign as vigorously as a candidate seeking office. By so doing they can aoaroely make tongue and buckle meet." Some do not make them meet. But a score of 4,Sacred Hearts," "St. Vincent's," 4 St. Cecilia's," '3t. Mary's," and "Holy Rosaries" remain quietly behind their ten foot walls, and have all the girls they want. Who ever met up with an agent oat dramming for some convent or Saint Somebody? We hava bean dome work for oar schools several seasons, in this and other States, and we have the first one to hear of. Thflv don't have to set out and j u hastle; oar blind, deladed Pro testaat fathers and mothers act as their advanoe agents, that is so much better. So long as the de - lnaion remains as it is we can do the hustling and they get the girls We wonder if all oar preachers see this thing in its true perspective Here and there we find Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian and Chris tian Champbellite girls attending Convents. One rule of our minis terial career we have religiously lived up to : no Protestant girl within the bounds of this preaoh er's bailiwick gets off to a Oath olio school without oar vigorous nmfcaat. At suoh time we are Protestant in deed and in truth. Much could be done by oar pas tors to counteract this dangerous idea, bat not all, the delasion is upon as. We never met one of oar Pro. testant victims of convent delu ion without quietly getting from them all the information possible Here are a few items which some of oar pioai fathers and mothers ought to let filter into their gray matter receptacles, if possible. In one convent there were 140 boarders, 70 per cent of them were Protestant girls. In another there warn 20 Protestant eirls. 17 of them joined the Catholio Church, two more were taken out to pre . vent them from joining. Bat the harm was done; those girls are ruined for and fraitfulness in the future to their own denomina tions. We once had. a neighbor who was a zealons member of the Presbyterian Church ; their daagh ter young and beautiful, had grad ua tod from a convent. Frequent lw we hava known her to leave home on some pretext; then with prayer book, concealed, harry to the Catholio Church several blocks away. Those same parents bad stoatly defended their action, as to the choice of sohool, declaring that their daughter's church affili ations were unmolested. This same girl could npt have passed an ex amination for a certificate to i teach a country sonooi ; she was incapable of writing a oorreot sentence in Eugligh. She had gotten what Rome seeks to give glory of . t h e "Holy Chtholic Ohuroh." We once had a friend who was a converted priest, having spent uine years in their colleges and seminaries Me was densely ig norant of the Bible, and confessed that his igucrince of any .true learning was a source of mortifica tion to him. We have never known a woman, educated in Catholic school, who ever put it ibto prao tioal use. They go out, and just imagine they are ednoated. This discussion, with its object lessons and living examples, might be urolonged indefinitely; but we wish to make some general obser vations and deductions as to why Probes -ants ought not, under any circumstances, patronise Catholic -ohools. Firt. ROME DOES NOT BE- LI EVE IN EDUCATION. This is a strong statement, but abso lutely true. Outside of Protest ant countries she does not pretend to educate the masses. Rome has blighted with the curse of ignor ance every country she has fully controlled. Every Latin oouutry on earth substantiates this state meut. Rome, in her present eo- olefciastical role, has had ULdia nuted sway in Italy for sixteen centuries, and 85 per oent of her . r..ln n1a 1 I I ituFQ tl& If tlM DH i- - j u Am liAvdB in nrincAtinn. whv does She I tll lL ril . . . ki. hl.9 Th. ..nn i nh v nnH.

Rome is foroed to make appearances l n countries where the masses seek eduoation. Seoond. W e venture a still troneer statement : ROUE OAJN NOT GIVE A LIBERAL EDUCA HON The reason fur this lies more in the system than in the motives of their teaohers. How oan their priests and sisters im- part what they do not possess? I Under the limelight of a broad, - ... - . .i ihurftl Arfnnofcinn Roma wnnM difl. i ii fcorrra to a a n stum chat hnlnl n I " iron grip censor on every qdob, every study their people pursue, cannot be other than narrow and faulty. There are seme branches upon which Catholic schools place great emphasis ; but thiuk of R ime teaching an authentic work on the history of civilisation or of the chureb. These two branches are the foundation cf an eduoa tion. The paganism and false dogmas of Roma could not stand in the lieht of true Iearunff: no one knows this better than Rome and her emissaries . The mythol 02ies of ancient Rome are as ra tional as the dogmas and tenents nf nhriptUtv f? Rnma. Whan wa a. -i-i th. T x , - i uiaae iu .taiuuo iu cannot educate, we mean exactly that. Three fasots as further proof. (1) Reoause her teaohers, and woman, are the ex- auu uoarisaii uu iu .rUuW and gullibility of the communi- oants; teaohing can go only so far and no farther.

Fourth, We must keep in mind that ROME BIDS ONLY FOR OUR GIRLS. They make no effort to reach oar boys. When the womanhood is loyal to the ohuroh she haa to fear of Ihe f u- ture.

Every Protestant parent, not married by a preist, is livii.g in adultery; the very Rim we plaoe in their care, b stowing smites and caresses unon them as they do, are nothing less than ille gitimate children.

Husband Came to Rescue. Catron, Ky. In an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows : "I suffered for four years, with womanly troubles, and during this time, 1 could only sit up for a little while, and could not walk anywhere af all. At times, I would have severe pains in my left side. The doctor was called in, and his treat ment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed again. After that, nothing seemed to do me any good. Red Devil Lye EATS UP FILTH Stop the Fly Routs FILTH MAKES FLIES, AND OUT-HOUSES ABE FLY FACTORIES Make Your Out-House Sanitary The odors arising from privies are sickening and unbearable, particularly in summer. They are also the breeding place for flies and other vermin. Flies carry disease germs direct from such places to the baby's milk, the meats, vegetables, pies and other foodstuffs. Typhoid fever is invariably transmitted from germs that originated in out-houses and such breeding places, and these germs are usually carried to the house and kitchen by flies that take an air route. BED DEVIL LYE, plentifully sprinkled in privies every two or three days, will eat up the filth deposits, keep such places sanitary, and wipe out the pestiferous fly. The cost is trifling, while the benefits can not be measured in dollars and cents. Use Bed Devil Lye for this Important purpose, you will be amazed to find how it actually eats up the filth.
