count Melbourne, viscount Palmerston,
and Mr.. Disraeli held the reins Of gov
ernment longer for . single term than
has Gladstone In either Of his terms.
The latter's first premiership lasted s
years 2 months and l2 days; his second.
to June 8, s years month and II days.
Newcastle served 8 years months Q

Five premiers Of the forty-two BE-
tween l7l4 and 1885 have held the reins
Of government longer than the grand
old man." Robert Walpole, the first
cabinet chief under the Hanovers, was
in Office years and s months. from
October 10, l7l4. until April 10.
1717. and again from April 20. 1870,
until February II, 1742-a single con-
tinuous lease Of 81 years, 8 months and

third in length of consecutive service,
was Lord Liverpool. who took Office
June 8. 1912. and gave way TO Canning

The rnsss breaker o. the Father Of
His Country.
He Cwashington] died in his sixty
eighth year, and in the heyday Of his
glory and his fame. Time has since dealt
gently with his memory. and he has
come down to us rs the greatest Of all
leaders and the most immaculate of all
men. No other face is so familiar to us.
HIS name is written all over the map Of
our country. We have made of his
birthday national feast. The outlines
OF his biography are known to every
schoolboy In the land. Yet his true
biography Isl still to Re prepared. General
Washington is known to us, and Presi-
dent Washington. But George WASH
ington Is an unknown man. When at
last he Is set before us In the habit as he
lived, we shall read less Of the cherry
tree and more Of the man. Naught
surely that is heroic will be omitted but
side by side with what Is heroic will ap-
pear much that Is commonplace. We
shall behold the great commander re-
pairing defeat with marvellous celebrity,
healing the dissensions Of his officers
and calming the passions Of his mutt
nous troops. But we shall also hear his
osths. and see him In those terrible out
bursts Of passion to which Mr.. jefferson
has alluded. and one Of which Mr.. Lear
has described. We shall see him refus-
ing to be paid by Congress, yet exacting
from the family Of the poor mason the
shilling that was his due. We shall
know him as the cold and forbidden
with whom NO fellow-man
ever ventured to live on close and
familiar terms; we shall respect and
honor him for being, not the greatest of
generals nor the wisest of statesmen.
not the most sanity Of his race. but .
man with many human frailties and
much common sense, who rose in the
fullness Of time TO be the political de-
liverer Of our country. ."-Mc4astsr's

one o them young geese that think the

box. Then he climbs up one Of the
tide-mark posts that's set in . row thar,
just MS the sea was clost up to 1t, and he
bitches one eend O. the rope around the

"Weli, he certainly deserved to sue

Lieutenant Mason, as well as he could
speak for laughing.

Mr.. Dollarsworth; ''for II was jist case

made him sick, and 20 he got rid of the
pizon; and rs If all that wasn't disap-
p'inting enough, the hood-tide washed
him ashore all alive and fresh, as them

OF these are covered with plan

are decorated with flower painting,

LEPRosY.

A Dreaded Plague which IL Widely Dis
seminated.
Few persons are aware that leprosy
still prevails to . considerable extent In
various parts Of the world. The Chi
Dese are popularity believed to be the ouly
people especially subject toit. Medical
writings show, however. that it is not
only widely distributed in India, China,
some portions Of Europe, the Sandwich
Islands, the West Indies, but that in this
country there are several centers where
cases have been observed. One Of these
leprous centers is Louisiana, where the
was at one time so prevalent that In 1785
q leper hospital was erected In New
Orleans. Within . few years past quite
Q number of cases have been reported
In lower Louisiana, and five or six years
ago an official investigation was ordered
by the legislature.
On the Bay of Chsleurs, In New
Brunswick, there has been leper hospi-
tai for many years, the disease has been
considerably restricted by governmental
supervision, and seems in q fair way Of
soon disappearing there altogether.
The disease has been imported into
Minnesota by Norwegian euigrants, but
Is said to be on the decline In that State.
In California It Is reported 70 be fire.
quently among the Chinese. No reliable
statistics Of its prevalence there are, how.
ever, available.
In this city several cases of the dis.
ease have developed within the past ten
years. Cases have been reported in the
medical journals by two Of our physi-
clans, who have made careful investi-
CATION into tn . subject One Of the cases
has never been away from the city,
showing that the disease WAS acquired
here.
Whether leprosy is contagious or NOT
is a mooted question. Physicians dis
agree upon this point, ~ they do on
20 many others. The weight Of evi-
dcncc is to the effect that there is great
danger from oontagion. Leprosy is sb-
solutely incurable by any method Of
treatment known to the medical faculty.

A Reminscence of Beyhood Days-The
First Pair Child Wears.
Do you remember them--the first pair
you wore? You can close your eyes
and see them again-stiff and black and
heavy soled. And what points Of beau
ty in your eyes were those red tops and
bright copper toes! The memory Of
then. brings you back to that period in
your life, where infancy passed into
boy hood and W where dreams came to you
of beng q big man. They marked the
beginning Of your independence, of your
strength, Of your recognition as one Of
earthSs creatures. Better far, they
brought surcease Of ridicule, 20 gallant
to boys pride, for they came with
pants and short hair, in place Of dresses
and curls. How often have you gone
sobbing to your mother, your heart full
of grief and modification. because a
bigger boy had pulled your hair and
called you girl! The changes came
oil At once. Mother made the pants,
and one eveVing she brought home the
red top boots. Then she put the scis-
sors into your soft curls, cut them of,
kissed them. and laid them away. Sht
was sorry to see the baby become boy;
but how your soul swelled! How you
longed for the morning. that you might
wear them! How joyfully you cried out
to Billy Brown across the street, that
you had "pauts and boots!' And Billy
probably answered, sullenly: II don't
care;" while all the time he was filled
with envy.
Dear little boots! We revere your
memory. You are to the boy what the
sweetheart is TO the youth; what the
bride is to the man.-Shoe aad Ledthe,
