Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Catholic University Bulletin, Vol. 10: January, 1904
The emphasis and prominence thus given to the work of charity and correction make it imperative that the works of the Catholic Church be represented. The number and variety of her charities is very great, the consecration of men and women by thousands to these works amounts to heroism - for we find in that consecration the acme of unselfish love of humanity. Now that the world is testing religions by the, mercy they practice, it seems imperative that the Church place before the world these abundant evidences of her charity, mercy and humanity.
