Let every person who receives The .Men ace, read carefully the following Papal Challege and say whether Oi' not this paper has a right to be-a field to culli vate, an alarm to sound. Public . sentiment only needs to be arous ed to put a quietus to the nlon trous doctines announced in Pope Pius IX's Encyclical of Decem ber 8, 1864-, which are binding upon all Roman Catholics of the United States today. Tiie Men -ace intends to furnish the facts to awaken the slumbering con sciences and stimulate action, See how it begins, you Ameri can Patriots! Listen to this.! The people are not the source of Civil power. The church has the right to exercerise' its .authority without having any limit set to it by the civil power. The church has the right to itself of force, and to use the temporal power for that purpose. The churph has an inate , and legitimate right to acquire hold and to use property without limit The pope and the priests ougbt to have dominion over temporal affairs. The chureh and her eccl -sias-tics hava. right to immunity from civil law. The clergy should be tried fcr civil Jand criminal offenses only in ecclesiastical courts - In cases of conflict bctwecuthe ecclesiastical and civil powers, the ecclesiastical powers ogkt tQ.preilv; The church has the right to in terfere in the discipline of the public schools, and in th ar rangements of the studies of the public schools Public schools open to all ch'ldren to the education of the -' young, should be under the con trol of the church, and shpld not be subject to the civil pr.wer nor made to conform to the f pin ions of. .the ae. While teaching primarily the knowledge of natural things, the public schools mast not be sepa. rated from faith and power of the .church The civil power has no right to assist persons to regain their freedom who have once adopted a religious life that is, become - priests, monks or nuns. . The civil power is inferior and "subordinate to the ecclesiastical power, and in litigated questions of jurisdiction should yield io it. Church alffd state should be united. The Roman Catholic religion should be the only religion of the state and all other modes of v worship should be excluded. Cardinal- Wiama, at Malines, Belgium, in 1863: !Ali Roman Catholic England only sent one member to the House of Commons, 1852. Yet we did not despair. We observ ed; that the electors were divided between two parties, and they found that by combining their strength, and then bringing it to bear in favor of one side cr the -other, they could cause that side ibtsucceed" which appeared the more disposed to do them justice. ; Thus we have taught the two parties in the sate to count the power-of the Roman Catholics as something. " From "The Catholic World." V-The Roman Catholics, like the church, is one and the same ir all ages and all times . . The most obvious, interes.ing and important view, of the Roman -Catholic in his relations to the Century is that of voting. . . We do not hesitate to affirm that in Man Never Satisfied. rrhH kind of weather we are having at this wriiing, which may be totally different how ever when you ge it, thiDgs changing bo rapidly these day?, is the most dissatisfac tory kind of weather that there is. Verily, man riseth up in the moruiug in a bob taUed nightshirt punctured by goosefleah, digs bis last winter's garments out of the mothballs, leecueshis felt hat from under his wife's setting hen, and goeth down town shivering. And before he can get home again the sun emes out aud begins putting in it's bestlicks and be com minces to shed that coat and vest and open the windows and swears because be wish es he had his palm beach out -fit on Yadkin Ripple. .u performing our duties as citizens, electors, and public offices we should always and under all cir cumstances act simply as Roman Catholics; that we should gov erned and directed by the immut able principles Lour religior, and should take dogmatic faith and the conclusions drawn from it, as expressed and defined in Roman Catholic philosophy, the ology, and morality, as the only rule of our private, public and political conduct." Cardinal Manning, speaking in the name of the pope says (in "Sermons on Religious Sub jects, " 1873) : ill acknowledge no ci vtJ Jpow,er4 .J3tiiiyei,t. no prince, and I claim more than this I claim to be the supreme julge and' the director of the consciences of men. I am sole, list, surpreme judge of what is right and wrong Moreover we declare, affirm, define and pro nouce it to be necessary to salva tion of every creature." The Cannon Law of the papal church says: "We declare, say, define, and pronounce it to be al together necessary to salvation, that every humar creature should be subject to the Roman pontiff " Dr. O. A. Brownson, the ablest writer which Rome .has ever had' in this country, said in his Review: f Undoubly it is the intention of the Pope to pos- sess this country, m this in . a T . tention he is aided bv the Jesuits and by the Catholic prelates and priests." From the "Syllabus of Errors ot f ope Jrius 1A-: 'lt is an er- tot to hold that in the case of conflicting laws between the two pQwers, the civil power ought to prevail." Cardinal Mannings words: "Why should the Holy Father touch any matter in politics at all? For this plain reason: Pol itics are a part of morals; Pol itics are morals on the widest scale " Archbishop Ireland, at the Ro man Catholic Congress in Balti more, November, 18;9: ''Our work is to make America Catho lic. If we love America, if we love the church, to mention the word suffices, Our cry shall be, "God wills it!' and our hearts shall leap with crusader enthusi-r asm!" Sour Stomach. Eat slowly, masticate your food thoroughly, abstain from meat for a few days and in most cases the sour stomach will disappear.

Gaiiiar Before Leaves Drop and Beans Shatter oat. Makes Splendid Hay. Vauy are growing soybeans or the first time probably won dering what will be the best way to harvest their crop this fall. Before cold weather comas on and the leaves have dropped only alitlle it will be.well for hose wanting hay to cut the vines. The leaves contain much' of the food constituents of the cropland it should be ,planne i , i ' r to save as many or jnem as pus- sible when curing the vinos. Whore grown merely for hay, the cutting should take place after the pods have formed and have grown considerably, but before they have matured. If the plant stems are left until the pods are mats re the leaves will shed badly, and the stems will become too hard and woody for the best quality of hay. After he plants have reached the pro per haying stage, there is a ra pid decline in the feeding value of the stems. In cutting, an ordinary mow ing machine with a side delivery. attachment or self rake reaper or any ordinary mowing ma chine withDut-any attachments may be used with satisfactory results"; It is well to cure the vines in wath and windrow asi much as possible finishing np incatedpn a railroad siding, if the cock,s it is done with cow- pea-vine hay. Great care should be taken that tlie vine's be exposed to direct sunlight aj ittle as possible after they have thoroughly wilted in the swath. If this recaatian is observ4f t mere win o a mmimum oi me shedding of the leaves. The handling should be done, i sible, when the vines are slight ly damp from dew. If favorable weather prevails the hay may be carried" to the barn and stored there with safety after re mining in the cocks for about a weetf. As with cow peas, the curing may be done usually most satis factorily on some kind of cur ins: frame or pole. The cocks or small stacks should, be ?o constructed as "'to shod water and to adii.it of a free circulation of air through the center of the Pile- Soy bean vines ha ve a high feeding value. Judging from the composition this hay is as rich or richer than alfalfa hay. There is no -question but what if cut at the stage of development indicated that the stock will rel sh it as well as any. other hay produced on the farm. In this day of high feed and food values it is of. the highest importance that all hays be carefully saved and sed. When the soybeans are to be cut for hay as well as for seed, they should be cut later, after the pods, are ripe, but before they have dried out sufficiently for the beans to pop out. . The curing of the vines should take place in the'way indicated reduc ing the handling to the minimum so that there will b(i but little, if aay shattering of the beans. Aft?r the is hay has been thoro ughly dried the beans may be thrashed out with an ordi nary thrashing machine or with a husker and shredder..
