Book Description
Excerpt from Deaconesses, or the Official Help of Women in Parochial Work and in Charitable Institutions: An Essay The force of this contrast is evidently not to be evaded by dwelling on another contrast, and by comparing the prosperity and thriving industry of Protestant countries with the squalor and poverty of Roman Catholic. Such comparisons themselves are not always very fairly made. Thus Belgium, for instance, is often omitted from the enumeration. And, after all, the condition of a country as to this world's wealth is not an infallible test of its spiritual state. We ought not to be content till Protestantism can.
