Tho Dangers of Doctors Life.

Aho 0ankolo "a y DVCtOk 1<AAos .s
Eighteen thousand doctors are now re.
quired to guard the health of the British
islands. Few of them spend the evening
of their days in competence and retire
ment. The doctors life is the most dan
gerous of all, and, on the average, the
shortest of all. 1t is even more danger
GUS than the soldiers. Exposed to the
contagion Of fatal diseases, to cold, to
night air, to accident, it is not to be
wondered that he falls early in the bat
tie of life. In every little town may be
found clergymen, officers, brewers, gro.
GERS, tailors, schoolmasters, jewelers.,
shoemakers and even peddlers, who end
the evening Of life in afiuence and ease.
But how seldom the doctor He gener.
ally dies in harness. London Tit Bits.

for local sclf-government, has nearly
, ended, and the victory is almost won,
: because, with the existing and growing
sentiment and support in England,
, Scotland and Wales, backed by a
united front from Ireland, the first act
OF the Parliament to be elected next
year will be complete and satisfactory
measure of home rule. This is the
triumph OF Parnell. The laws now in
force for the benefit Of Ireland. which
are the direct result of his efforts,
would immortalize the memory of any
statesman, and give him high rank on
the list of patriots.
The lesson of Parnell's life is the
superiority of constitutional over revo-
iutionary methods. He demonstrated
that nothing is impossible for Ireland
IN the Imperial Parliament if her sons
are both united and wise. His agita-
ton gave a distinct impulse to the
English Democracy, and educated and
strengthened the radical element in
British politics. have often heard
the remark in London that Americans
interest themselves about home rule in
Ireland only because the Irish form so
important factor in the American
electorate. 1t is an ignoble reason
tor popular sympathy which is uni
versal in the United States. Our hearts
have often been touched by Irish dis
tress, and our minds and imaginations
fired by our Irish fellow citizens, but
home rule appeals to us as an Ameri-
can principle.
Integrity and courage are common
qualities IN representative men, but
with Parnell they were faculties and
forces. Gambetta nodded a republic
out of chaos, but his foes were scat
tered, defeated, humiliated, and the
vast majority of his countrymen were
supporting him. Cavour brought to,
gether the warring principalities of
italy and created Italian nationality,
out he was leading his men of one
race and one creed to the fulhllment
OF the OF centuries. Bismark touched
the springs Of Teutonic patriotism and
confederated The German Empire, but
his mighty hand grasped the cords Of
unity which had been long waiting the
grasp of a master.
It was Parnell's task and fame that
he brought together four millions Of
his countrymen who had been for gen.
eratlons torn by bitter teuds among
themselves, and then converted the
thirty millions of alien ace a.r.i -Eaith-
in the confederate states of the empire
to see tho justice of his course, and
join in demanding of the Imperial Par
Lament that Ireland should be granted
Tor her domestic affairs self-government
and home rule.
AS the rays of the morning sun
tor coming ages penetrate the shades
OF the Cemetery of Glashevin, and
glance from the tomb of O'Connell,
the llberator, to the monument of
Parnell, the deliverer, may they illu-
mine the homes of a contented, happy
and prosperous people.
DIR. Depew's graceful turns of ex-
preston in reference to the dead hero
frequently drew out enthusiastic ap-
plause, while at other times many APP
peared deeply affected.

UNDER THE OLD APPLE TREE.

The apple tree stands where it always
stood,
In nook of the orchard green;
And the blossoms have hidden the moss
grown wood
With garment of silver sheen.
And l think of the days, when leapt and
ran
To climb on the blooming bough
And the thoughts of the boy come back
to the man
All would that then were now.
But second thought trips on the heels of
the first
'Tis late on a Sabbath morn,
And theiseam in the back OF my coat is burst,
And the seat OF my pants is torn
And a big man stands with strap in his
hand,
Meath the apple tree while Pm mute
The minutes fly by, and Eye been tanned
For spelling my Sunday suit.
The apples are red where the white bloom
grew,
And again on the tree | lean,
Eve just been telling my love to Sue
And I'm feeling uncommon mean,
For Sue has said, with toss of her head,
That she's promised her hand to Brown,
A fellow whose hair is fiery red,
But the wealthiest man in town.
And the more look at the blooming tree
As memories rise and wane,
Pm not so sure 'twere we'll for me
For the past to come back again.
For it's pleasanter for to spank my boy
For tearing his Sunday clothes
And Sue, Old Brown, L wish you joy
And so do you, don't you, Rose?
The apples are red where the white bloom
grew,
And again OH the tree l lean:
I've just been telling my love to Sue,
And Yet feel uncommOnly mean
For she has said, with a toss Of her head,
That she's promised her hand to Brown
Now, Brown had hair of a fiery red,
And the ugliest face in town.
SO to-day as look at the blossoming tree,
As the 'emOries rise and wane,
I'm not So sure 'twere good for me
To live in the past again
It's pleasanter for to spank my boy
For tearing his Sunday clothes
And Sue? Old Brown. l wish you JOY
You've need of it, goodness knows
