MARK DALE 'WMWWf^ Divine Healing To The Eilitoi of The Advance DeakSib, â€" Some kind friend sent mo s copy of the Catholic Record, puoliehed '•5 London, Orit. In it I noticed copied ,e principiil renjsrks in my two cominu- ^itions in The Advance on DowioiFiu â€" jprovinv; the articles as far as tliee ^rred to Dowie, but dissenting in a (y courteous manner from my reason- (g on the curing properties at the shrine fSt. Anne of Qutbuc. He says, " Many /toto.slaiitsas well an Catholics who have and the incident, however, affords no parallel t) tho cases said to have been cured at St. Ann's. Faith in those cases is absolutely necosanry â€" no faith, no cureâ€"but hero are two dead men 1 a state rondtriuK it iniijossible to comply with the conditions, ,,.,,. ,. ^ ^ » i .

He then saw in a vision his favorite Saint Ann to whom ho cried for core, and hH heard her say, "You will be cured." He recovered, and Quebec ran:! nitli the miracle. Ho was examined by a miracle, purrf ami siinido. The failure to distinguish a miracle froth cures by ii;ituial causes leads the Record and mul- tituilus of others into grave errors. But further lis to St. Ann, said to bo tho mother (if Mary.

Surely, if she were the mother of Mary and !i believer in Christ, her fivniB could not have been repressed. Without any authoritative Htatemeiits I must be jmidoned if my credulity fails to ac.piiesee in so crude a doctrine. The Record is right in siiyiiift there is no in- trinsic healing power in the bones ihem- aelvesâ€" just so. Then any other bones would do as well. In this we agree. Where, then, does the vittue lie 1 Listen to tho Record's answer : "Even miracles which appear to have been wrouaht for no other purpose than to prove that he wishes the relics of his saints to ho re- regarded with respect and treated with reverence." If the Record had lived in the dark ages some sympitthy might be afforded for such crass nonsoose. Bones t.) bo treated with respect and reverence ! And this in the 20th century ! But let us see. If Ht. Ann bo a God-inado saint, a thinii not impossible, to be sure, if her life and works warranted it, there can bo none else. A saint by courtesy of her virtue administered by proxy must be ex was due to his strong will to rssist death; thiit he had a real power over the body. Chiniquy listened, but preferred the saint, and had a picture paiiited of her for £ 50. Another priest, who saw it, told Chiniquy the cure was no niiracle,and tho crutches hanging around the church were left by imiKisters, and the rest cured by the power of the lulnd over tho body. Till IBM that pic'.iiro was In tbe cluireh. lu that yo&r lio again got typhoid fovor in Chicago, and once more was Riien up as dying, but this tinio be did not cry to the saints, and soon fult life i-etiirniuR. Ho thou saw that the saints had no part in bis previous euro, and took tbe pletnro down uud burnt it. The aboyo picture is corroljoratiTe of ^wbafc I liavo written. Space forbids tbe evidence of faith hoalinf; centres iu Aniorlcn, Europe and Austt-alis, notably iu India, Cblua aud Africa, found in tho presence of ectnal idolsâ€" the ro- fiuite being similar in all oases, St. Auu in- ctudofi, showing that anythingof reputed virtue real or iiuaginary, suOlclont to arouse tbe psyohio jpowurs of man is suflici'-nt for tho purpose. The vis luedeoatrix natnrn), with faith, does the woi'k, whether the objeot con- ooutrod on a bone of Saint Ann's band, or an idol of wood or stone, or an impostor like Dowlo, (li^lijab the restorer,) or a toad's paw for tho euro of scrofula. If tbo courteous editor of tbe.Uocord would ooiuiuouco a study of then laws uubiasad,ho w»uU boaouvin>;u<t that to attribute those cures to tho iutorces.stoQ of aaiuts, or tbe Diriiiu, or to name tbam as irJr- aolos in the true sonso. is extremely orronoons, save aud except that God Is the author of the laws herein disonssed. An Knylishmau may write lar^rly aud quite satisfactorily to the Record, but without some knowledcoof psychio and Kuef;eHtive laws, or as a celebrated author dudetl A saint, therefore, must ba like i„ould say, tho "unoonscions" part of tho divine Lord, full of comimssion and impartial. Compare with what hapiiens a', St. Ann's shrine.

These facts are numeious and well authenticated. It must be very try- ing to tho credulity, even of the most simple, and an irrefutable argument auaiiist the place given to St. Ann by the wrought miracles by the hand of Record. The Beeoid refers to euros by so th.it oven there were bi-ounht ,j,e Apostle Paul.
