The Ave Maria is read by the young seminarians and scholastics. They push gradually on. The only way of doing any good to the people is to make an impression on their senses. Nothing can be served to their intellect while they remain void of any religious convictions. The Basel Mission Lutheran Evangelical Society has established itself there. Their purses are kept filled up by remittances from Switzerland. They try to entice the pagans by promises of loans and hopes of permanent work. Count Mattei's cure for Leprosy has been tried there by Father August Muller, S.J., with success. The lepers consist of pagans and Christians. The Christians are taught their catechisms by the Jesuit scholastics. :: X-3-m A.L.S. 15pp. 12mo.
