TWO BRASS MITES Ir was on one of the days before the treason. He had gone from the city strects up into the Temple. As Luke tells it, Me had just finished a word or two of divine eloquence especially directed at cer- tain gentlemen who desire to walk in long robes and love salutations in the market places, and the first chairs in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at the feasts. Suddenly His attention was attracted to the penny- collection box. Both Luke and Mark describe the box as “the treasury;” and the noun here assumes such proportions in the mind of a modern reader as instantly to recall a popular institution in Wash- ington (D. C.) or the equally well known sub- institution in Wall Street. And looking on'(the words are Luke's), He saw the rich men cast their gifls into the treasury, * * And He saw also a certuin poor widow casting in two brass mites. Mark is the more specific of the apostolic reporters. He valued the two bra s mites at a farthing. HE gave her all! And God's only Son miled approvingly. s So, too, my readers, my dear readers, have these good Nuns of Charity given all of themselves to His Service, reserving nothing for special friend- ship, asking no ge reward for the work they have done in His Name. They need neither an apologist nor a defender, But for the first time in the history of their institution they do stand in need of a pleader- and to-day again we plead for them that their work may go on without interruption. We welcome, indeed, the widow's offering we cannot, frankly we cannot, her two brass mites. but Ah! get along with only We must have with it the gifts, the generous gifts of men and women of means. We must have with it the self- sacrificing gift of the wage-earner; we must have with it the heartful mother’s gift, the mother who can save from her grocery allowance, say a dollar or two. We must, in a word, have the widow’s mite and pray: and the full charity of other men and women and little children.
