Saint Januarius (San Gennaro) and his Companions.
   Martyrs.
   Feast Day 19 September.

Double.

Red Vestments.

“At Pozzuoli, in Campania, Italy,” says The Roman Martyrology, “The Feast of The Holy Martyrs, Januarius

(San Gennaro), Bishop of Beneventum, Festus (his Deacon), Desiderius (his Lector), Socius, a Deacon of The Church at Misenum, Proculus, a Deacon of Pozzuoli, Eutychius, and Acutius, who, after having been bound with chains,

were cast into prison and beheaded, under Emperor 

Diocletian (305 A.D.).

“The body of Saint Januarius was taken to Naples and honourably buried in the Church where his blood is still preserved in a glass phial. When the phial is placed near the head of The Holy Martyr, the blood liquefies and bubbles as if it had just been shed.”

This Miracle, known as The Miracle of Saint Januarius, still takes place. The blood, contained in two glass phials where it is coagulated into a dark-red mass, increases in volume and weight; on liquefying, it becomes bright-red, while the surface is covered with bubbles, wherefore it is said to boil.

The Miracle takes place three times a year: During 

the Feast of May, lasting nine days, from the First Sunday

in the Month; in September, during eight days, from 

19 September to 26 September; and on 16 December.

A Gentleman’s Wig.

Text and Illustrations: GERI WALTON

Of all the fashions of the 1700s, perhaps the Wig most resembles “character of that period, embodying the artificiality, the mixture of dignity and affectation, and the pompous conventionality.”[1]

The Wig did not suddenly appear overnight, but rather grew into popularity, until, at one point, Wigs were so fashionable, that, if you wore your own hair, you tried to make it appear as if it were a Wig.

During Louis XIV’s reign, big flowing Wigs were popular, but, towards the end of Louis XV’s reign in 1774, smaller Wigs became fashionable, until even they disappeared.

Many of the Wigs that gentlemen wore were created from real human hair, and it was common for fashionable Beaus to keep their Wig looking perfect, by carrying in their side pocket “a Tortoiseshell Wig-Comb … for constant use.”[2]

It also became common for people to sell their hair to earn extra money. In fact, at one point, real hair became worth so much, people who had long flowing locks were sometimes threatened or attacked for their hair.

In the 1700s, all sorts of Wigs came in and out of fashion. Among the fashionable Wigs of the times were three:

The Tie-Wig, also known as The Ramillies (sometimes spelled Ramilies) Wig;

The Bob-Wig;

The Bag-Wig.

Tie-Wigs became popular during Queen Anne’s reign, but they were not a Wig that was at first considered full dress.

They acquired their name because the Wig’s curls were tied up, or the Wig was tied to the head. Lord Bolingbroke, an English politician, government official, and leader of the Tories, was among the first to wear and popularise the Wig in England. He created a great scandal, when after being hastily summoned to see The Queen, he appeared in his Tie Wig.

“This Wig had a plaited tail, tied at the top with a large ribbon bow, and at the bottom with a smaller one. The Queen remarked that she supposed, next time, Lord Bolingbroke would come in his night-cap.”[3]

A humble son of Saint Francis, whose Stigmata we Commemorated yesterday, Saint Joseph also glorifies The Cross of Jesus, which The Liturgy exalted, recently, on

14 September (The Exaltation of The Holy Cross).

Like the Seraphic Patriarch, he strove to remain attached to The Cross by absolute Poverty, heroic Obedience, and Virginal Purity.

Such was his spirit of sacrifice and Prayer, that he accepted with Holy Patience and great serenity to be misunderstood and calumniated (Offertory). Wherefore, God, Who exalts the humble, caused him to pass from the rank of Brother to that of Clerk and to be made a Priest.

He wrought such Miracles that he implored Heaven to withdraw from him the remarkable powers with which he was endowed. He died a Holy Death at Osimo, Italy, in 1663.

Joseph of Cupertino, O.F.M. Conv. (Italian: Giuseppe da Copertino) (17 June 1603 – 18 September 1663) was an Italian Conventual Franciscan Friar who is honoured as a Christian Mystic and Saint. He was said to be prone to miraculous levitation and intense ecstatic visions.

Saint Hyacinth was a 13th-Century Dominican Priest and Missionary.

In 1220, he accompanied his uncle, Ivo Konski, the Bishop of Cracow, to Rome. Here, they met with Saint Dominic.

At this time, Saint Hyacinth was one of the first to receive the Habit, from Saint Dominic, of the newly-established Order of Friars Preachers.

Because of his spirit for Prayer and his zeal for the salvation of Souls, he was sent to Preach and establish The Dominican Order in his native land, Poland.

Saint Hyacinth Founded communities at Sandomir, Cracow, and Plocko, on The River Vistula, in Moravia.

He extended his Missionary work through Prussia, Pomerania, and Lithuania; then, crossing the Baltic Sea, he Preached in Denmark, Sweden, and Norway.

It was these Apostolic travels that earned Hyacinth the title “The Apostle of The North”.

Saint Hyacinth Basilica, Chicago, Illinois, was built by architects Worthman and Steinbach. The Church Cornerstone was Blessed on 21 October 1917.

The Church Walls, Towers, and the completed edifice, were roofed in 1918. The Interior of the Church proceeded being built through 1920 – 1921.

The Church Interior was restored in 2000 by Conrad Schmitt Studios Inc. of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The following Text is from Wikipedia - the free encyclopædia,

unless stated otherwise.

The Basilica of Saint Hyacinth (Polish: Bazylika Świętego Jacka) is a historic Church of The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago, located at 3636 West Wolfram Street, in the Avondale neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois.

It is a prime example of the so-called “Polish Cathedral Style” of Churches, in both its opulence and grand scale.

Along with other such monumental Chicago Religious edifices, such as Saint Mary of The Angels, Saint Hedwig’s, and Saint Wenceslaus, it is one of the many monumental Polish Churches visible from The Kennedy Expressway.
