Strange But mi

in the folk late of Prince Ed- tvarti Island we read about the loup-QKPOHI one that kills And eats children, And Another that. like the feux-(albeit. lads the dos- Lruotlon of souls. Btrange As it may seem the former was never seen except by ch.i.ldre.n. whose evidence is hardly worthy of cre- dencef inasmuch as the loup-garou appeared to bad chi.ldren only. But the existence of the latter ha been vouched for by thousands of solid people. '

A pioneer who lived near Cape Wolfe had said his prayers. and was about to turn in for the night. when he heard a Ahout outside. and going to the door. saw a be- lated fellow bound for a shanty near by where a man lay at the point of death. There was no priest within many miles. Both men bundled themselves up and took A bottle of holy water.

A.) they rode along they could hear the wind moaning in the rarest. see the trees throwing gaunt shadows on the snow. Sud- uenly the sound of rushing feet came to their ears. and. looking over their shoulders discovered to thrir horror that they were be- ttip hotly pursued by a strange rrrature

The thing looked like a wolf, out its cry was human. and its (-3'65 were like the eyes of the tircaded feux-follet. The men mut- tered a prayer. and whipped the ll0l'SE into greater action. It was A ll trd race indeed. over frozen pflilds and through a'ood-ed belts. out thanks to the Fates. the men washed the home of the sick man Ilf:Zl.. and. placing the open prayer book on the table. defied the .-tr-arrge creature to cross the tttreshold. They were Just in time to sprinkle the dying man and close his eyes in death. Then fastening his beads on the man- tel to keep the widow and child- rcll from the ”thlngk outside the house. they set out to get the !i0l3hl)0l'S and summon a priest. that the dead man might receive ii christian burial.

Did you know that Mid-Lent Sunday used to be known as Rose Sunday? On this day the pope blessed a garden rose. which was first carried in procession. and then presented to the principal person than in the Eternal City. although the rose was sometimes rent to some foreign King. The fifth sunday in lent is popularly railed "care sunday". a term which has given the etytniologistts dif- Itculty to explain. In some coun- tries it also goes by the name of corling sunday from the custom of eating corllngs (peas) steeped tncrnight in water. and fried the next day with butter.
