FATHER TITUS' SERMON.

would say their business is to fol
low a trade, on the farm, In the of
fice, shop or factory.
"The women would say their busi
ness Is at home at the family fire
side. This Is not so. That Is not
your business. Your words may be
true In the sense In which you use
them. There is a great and real
business. All men here on earth
have but one and the same busi
ness, and what is that? The salva
tion of the Immortal soul.
"No matter who you are, whether
young or old, rich or poor, educated
or Ignorant, you all have the same
business here on earth and that is
the salvation of your Immortal soul.
"Although this is really the most
important business on earth, yet it
is neglected by man. How many
people live just as If they had no
soul. How many people live and
die and appear before tho Judgment
seat, of God who have taken no care
of their soul.
"Now In order that no one of
you make this great mistake, I
would call your attention to the
great care you must exercise in or
der to save your soul.
"Your soul deserves your great
est care, first, because your soul Is
the most precious nnd valuable
thing that you have, because you
are in great danger of losing It; and
because you have only one soul,
and If lost once It's lost forever.
"I say your soul Is the most
precious, most valuable thing that
you have, if you have something
very precious you take care not to
lose It. The more valuable, the
more precious that thing is, the
greater Is the care you take of It,
"Suppose you have a few nickels
or dimes in your pocket. You
would not mind It very much if you
should lose It, for you know If you
should lose It, not much would be
loft.
"Suppose instead you had several
hundred dollar bills or 20-dollar

gold pieces. You would take great
care not to lose them. You would
first examine your pocket to see
whether there was a hole In it, and
you would look Into It every "now
and then to see If it was still there.
The larger the sum tho greater care
you would tako of It.
"Now your soul Is the most prec
ious and valuable thing that you
have. Therefore it deserves great
est caro. We have a soul my dear
Christians. When God created man
ho formed his body from tho slime
of the earth; a lifeless form, a
beautiful statue. God breathed into
it a living soul. Now the soul that
God breathed Into It was mnde af
ter his imago and likeness.
"Your soul resenmies God also
because it is Immortal, that Is It
will never die,
"Why is It, O man, that all crea
tion falls down bafore you, and
proclaims you lord and monarch?
It Is because of your soul, because
the Image of God is stamped upon
you.
"O man, I don't care who you are
you have a soul.
"To understand the great value
of your soul consider what a price
was paid for it. A great price had
to be paid for It in order to save
your soul. The Son of Man came
down to earth, led the life of pov
erty and sacrifice and died on the
cross.
"In the Catholic church we hon
or thousands of heroic men who
gave up earthly relations and
friends and cheerfully endured the
most cruel deaths. And why did
they do so?. In order to save their
precious souls. And even at the
present day, wo have many young
women, brought up In all the lux
ury wealth can provide, forsake
wealth in order to enter a nunnery,
to devote their lives to the nursing
of the sick and the teaching of
children. And why? In order to
save their precious souls.
" our soul deserves your great
est care because you are In great
danger of losing It. By the loss of
tho soul I mean the loss of God
which Is occasioned by mortal sin.
And this loss becomes fatal if you
die in that state. Unless you take
great care you will fall into mortal
sin. (
"There's many a home, many a
house, many a placo of public re
sort over the gates of which one
could write, "The Gate To Hell";
places where souls are lost daily
and hourly.
"And if you fall Into mortal sin,
you are. also In danger of dying in
that sin. How easily may you die.
The least thing a false step, a
railroad accident, a Ila3h of light
ning and you are launched out In
to eternity without preparation.
Therefore take great care of your
soul, that Is in great danger of be
ing lost.
"You should also take great care
