The thing for which Pope Pius was most loved was the tehder care with which he watched after the welfare of his mother and sisters when he became able to help. He sent nearly all the money which he did not give to char- peo- attract one most ol all. Thay are. large and sin- gularly beautiful and; luminous.

I determined to prove the con- trary, and I have." With that she flounced off, and poor Father Sarto had to be content with ¢old fare. In 1888, he was in Rome for the jubilee of Leo XIII's priesthood when one morning, entering Pe ter's he found a prelate, Monsignor Rodini Tadeschi, afterwards Bishop of Bergamo, who could not say mass, there béing no acolytes to serve it Bishop Sarto qffered his services, but the prelate, confused, objected, when Monsignor Sarto cut him short exclaiming; 'Come, come, you will] see-that I will make no mistakes." So those at thetearly mass that day were fortunate étfough to see a sim ple priest celebrating mass, assisted by a biship and a future pope, in the humble position of an altar boy When he was appointed a cardinal he had given so much of his money away in chatities that he had not enough left to buy a ticket for Rome, where he was to get his red hat, Some rich admirers in Mantua, how- ever, come to the rescue Shortly afterwards, as though he had a pre- sentiment, he went {0 his birthplace in all the pomp of his new dignity, and entered the poor house where he was born to embrace his mother. He wished to satisfy her desire to see him a= a prince of the church before her death, which occurred in facet, a few weeks later, on February 2nd, 1894. As cardinal and patriarch, he continued his modest, frugal life. He did not even have a cook, but had his meals prepared by his sisters, who then lived with him. ity to Sarto St Compromise Pope. No one was more surprised than Cardinal Sarto when he was chosen as a "compromise Pope." His simple nature. rebelled at the idea, and it was only Wter much persuasion that he accepted the pontificate. The splendor of the papal court, to use his own words, "made him feel like a fish out of water", and life at the vatican proved irksome to his simple nature, At one time he was per- suaded to use an antomobile in the the machine to one of the vatican of- ficials. In appearance, Pope Pius looked somewhat older than published pie- tures of him would indicate, due in part to his long suffering from gout. One of the most vivid descriptions of his appearance is found in an in- terview with A. M. Ury, an Ameri- can artist, for whom his holiness "at in 1907. "The kindly benevolence of the pope is his predominating characteristic," said Mr. Ury. "It shines forth from his face in every move. - His face is one beautiful to a painter, for it combines the spit) tna! with a pleasing virility: head is one but seldom matched, his i suming expression, | cellent by eyes in which is the light of see- mingly perpetual youth, reminding the observer of Pius X., whom he also resembles in his candid, unas brightened by a twinkling humor about the lips." Yet there was no weakiness in his nature, and his own consuming en ergy was only equalled by the work he compelled from the pries un der his direction Above all, he preached the gospel of personal cul ture, and put cleanliness ext to godliness and good manners next to good morals, setting an example in these things by his own refinement and old'fashioned courtesy of man- ner. So much did he recognize the duty of that true gentility which re- veals itself in speech as well as in deed, that he issued a "Manual of Politeness" for the use his young clergy » ISLAND FARM Edwavd Island Crops Are Ex- cellent.
